4 Kansas Bred winner IN 1877,
by the number Of entries already e.
ceived. but that the purebred live
stock show at the Kansas Free Fair
will eclipse all former events. There
are very good reasons why this is so.
Interest in puebreds during the last
two years has greatly increased
among farmers. Registered amin Is
are driving scrubs from many farms,
much 90 the advantage of the farm
ers. The breeding business has
turned the corner Of the depression
and is on the upgrade.
Especially is this true of dairy cat
tie and hogs. In Kansas both these
classes of livestock never were more
popular than they are today, because
they have been returning the largest
profits to those who own them. They
have been the greatest money max
ers during the last few years.
Widespread interest in hogs is
shown by the fact that at the Kansas
Free Fair there are SO entries in the
Poland China futurity, 80 entries in
the Duroc Jersey futurity and 10 en-
tries in the Chester White futurity.
This is the largest entry list of any
three futurities ever held in Kansas.
The cattle show will tax the capac-
ity of the buildings to house the en-
tries but arrangements are being
made to care for every animal that
arrives. Indications are that the dairy
show will be the feature, and this is
quite natural considering the attitude
OF Kansas farmers toward dairying.
The Importance of better livestock
in Kansas cannot be overestimated
and the contribution of the Kansas
Free Fair in promoting it means much
to agriculture in the state. At the
fair farmers will have an unusual
opportunity to study livestock Of
every type at its best and to learn
its every day value to them If given
a chance on their farms

Jews of Gchcnna. When the Great
Teacher wished to make clear what CON
stituted worthwhile life, He did it in
this striking way. He pictured all the
peoples of the earth before the judgment
seat of God. The people were separated
into two classes. Those on the right
hand the Judge welcomes into the King
dom of Heaven, because they had proved
helpful to his needy children on earth.
But to those on the left, who had not
proved helpful in the world He. said
Depart from Ne into Gehenna, prepared

to say, Jesus consigned to the rubbish
heap of humanity those who are socially
useless. The final criterion of life is
service. While other styles in the archi

style of life which is symboized by the

EXERCISES OF CLASS
DAY IN SCHOOL ROOM

Interesting exercises were held at the
high school building Monday afternoon
at $50 o'clock, when the Goth class day
program of the Brattleboro high school
was presented before an audience which
filled the assembly room and included
relatives, friends and schoolmates.
Weather conditions made it impossible to
hold the exercises on the lawn as had
been planned, but the rain did not inter
fcre with the planting of the 1922 ivy as
the last feature of the program.
The program opened with the March
of the Scouts, played by the high orchcs-
| ira, which was assisted by \. III. Brasor,
Frank Snow and Scwall Morse, as fac
| ulty and graduates were escorted to seats
| in the center of the assembly room by
| the marshalls. Edmund Manley and
Merle Stone.
The presidents address was given by
William Edward Morcton, who called at
| tcntion to the fact that although their
high school days were over their cduca-
ton was not over, for in large sense
| every day holds Il new lesson, the c0rrec-
| ton of yesterdays mistake and the pre-
vcntiOn of tomOrrow's. AS the amount
and kind of work a man does is the mcas-
ure of his health. so the amount of ear
| ncstness with which one goes at tho
| daily tasks is the measure of ones success
| in life. He spoke of the great opportun-
| tiles in the business world in general and
of the way in which heads of large con-
Germs are eager to give youth chance,
and called upon the graduates on all oc-
casions throughout their lives to strive
ito be, not to SEEM" according to the
| class motto.
Philip Henry Wheeler in the class ora

uation, speaking from the laborcr's
standpoint as well as from the standpoint
of the cmplOye, saying what is most
needed in the industry is true democracy

Grady, whose subject was The Immigrant
Question. She presented a study Of the
character of the old and new Immigrants
and the reasons for their coming &c
America and referred to the laws of re-
striction which have been passed.
Following is the class poem, which was
given by Helen Ames Woodwork:
Happy are we, singing joyously;
Memories sweet, joys complete fill our
hearts today.
| Parting time is here, friendships ever
| dear
In our thoughts with lingering fondness
stay.
But our world lies ahead and the path
| way we must tread
AS reluctant we stand gazing toward the
| unknown land.
Crowded there in despair, vanly CROP
ing for the light.
Burdened souls seek the goals we have
dreamed in days SO bright,
In days 40 bright.
Happy are we, singing joyously;
Memories sweet, joys complete fill our
hearts today.
Parting. time is here, friendships ever
dear
In our thoughts will fondly stay.
