already are we'll under way for
the poultry Standardization exhi-
bit. which will be made by county
poultry associations for the third
consecutive year, at the coming
Kentucky State Fair, according
to J. r. Smyth. poultry extension
specialist of the College of Agri-
culture, who will have charge of
the event. At least 20 of the
counties that have adopted
standard breed of poultry are ex-
pected to enter birds in the exhi-
bit which has developed into one
Of the largest farm poultry exhi-
bits in the country, he said.
Each county exhibit will be
made up of 32 birds, these being
divided into two pens of aged
birds, two pens of young birds
and three entries each in the cock,
cockerel, hen and pullet classes.
Entries will complete individual
ly and as county exhibits. A num-
Der of cash and special prizes this
year will be offered again as has
been the case for the last two
years.
AS a part of the poultry stand

been carried on over the state for
a number of years by the college

perienced rapid development
Eight counties were represented
when the event first took place
two years ago, while last year IS

late interest in purebred poultry

LEXINGTON ROAD WORK
MAKES fine PROGRESS
1900 Feet of Concrete Spread
This Week-Now Averaging
210 Feet a Day

The work on the Lexington
pike is considered by those in
charge to be making rapid prog
ress. They have spread more
than 5000 feet of concrete and
are now able to spread at least
2l0 feet a day. This is unusually
good. Mr.. Mccormick considers
that they will be to the overhead
bridge near the city limits within
two weeks. When this end is
finished the crew will go to Nc
Cords lane where work was be-
gun, and work toward the river.
Work has progressed better
this week than any previously,
as 1,200 feet of concrete have
been spread by Saturday morn
ing when this information was
given out.
Just as soon as the concrete is
spread canvas covers are spread
over 1t until 1t dries sufficiently
for a person to walk on it. The
concrete is then covered with
dirt, two inches in thickness.
This is kept wet for two weeks
and then the dirt is removed.
The concrete is allowed to stand
for one week and then the road
is ready for travel.
All the concrete used on the
Lexington pike.is reinforced and
on the curves has double rein
forcement. When this road is
completed it will be something
of which Madison may be justly
proud.

NORMAL BOARD TO
CONSIDER GYM BIDS

POSED of George Colvin, chair
man, J. A. Sullvina, J. w. Cam
mack, c. F. Weaver and Senator
H. M. Brock, will meet Saturday
with President T. ]. Coates and
Secretary Paul Burnam, who
was reelected at the last meeting
for a term of two years. The
meeting was called Saturday
morning at 10 o'clock.
The regular routine business
will be attended to, but the thing
of greatest Importance for the
meeting will be the receiving of
bids for construction of a frame
building for a gymnasium. The
school has been greatly handi
capped in its physical education
work since August 1920 when the
Normal gym was burned.
Thru the generosity of the
City School Board the Normal
School has been allowed to use
the Madison High School gym.
This made it possible to carry on
athletic activities to some extent
and do the necessary physical ed
ucation work required by law.
This building did not accommo-
date half the Normal students,
but it was "God-send' to that
institution.

COMMITTEE REPORTS
ON REST ROOM

On REST ROOM
The rest room committee rendered
the following report at the last meet
ing of the city council:
a"The Board of Trustees of the muni
ciDal rest room finds some difficulty in
choosing from our many activities the
points that would make report of in
terest or of benefit to this body Never
:. theless we feel that it is your due that
you shall be told as fully as possible
what has been accomplished in this year
of the new municipal enterprise.
Immediately after our appointment
last April. we mapped out a program of
four points.
"We endeavorcd to interest all w0m
ems organizations in the rest room in
order to gain wide publicity for it.
"We established the Woman IS Ex
change and gave it great deal of at
tention for we hoped by this means ia
make the Rest Room self-supporting.
"We studied the situation with tho
view of giving the widest possible serv-
ice to the women of both town and
country.
"We laid plans for asking financial
aid Of womcn's organizations in the
fall.
''We do not feel that we have ac.
cOmplished all that we hoped, nor all
than can be done, but the women of the
community are now vitally interested in
it, and almost all Of the organizations
have given us some support. 1t must
be borne in mind in this connection
that women earn money for such causes
in different ways. They do not carry
the pocket book, so must have recourse
to food sales, dOughnut frys, apron sales
suppers, etc.
However the rest room has been very
greatly appreciated, and has proved to
be q real benefit and permanent i'm.
provemcnt to the community.
Many women who worked in town
last summer felt that they could not
have remained had it not been for a
place where q few moments rest and
comfort were obtainable. Many farm
er's wives outside of our trading dis
trict accompanied their husbands to FL
Centre to do their shopping here and
spend the time while waiting, in thai
comfortable room. Many, many weary
- mothers have blessed the rest room as
they have entered this inviting retreat
with tired little children.
I'VE have endeavOred to make it an
attractive place for farmer s wives and
children, for we must remember con:
stantly that this is solely an agrcul
tural community, and all our prosperity
all our wealth is derived from the soil
and it's products, and without the farm
ers' families, FL Centro and every Other
town in the valley would quickly return
to desert wastes. So the encourage
ment and cheer and welcome that f.
