1t was mighty quiet in Edgerton
last Saturday. Not quite one-half of
the inhabitants went to Madison to see
Wisconsin beat Illinois. They were dis
appointed in that particular object but
saw some excellent football played be-
fore the largest crowd of fans ever
witnessing game on Randall field.
The Kiwanis club sent the local high
school team up on complimentary tick
cts. Friday evening at GLIB the Wis
consin rooters will pass through Edger-

will stop here, do homage to the home
folks of Captain Rollie Williams and
then go on to the big battle ground of
the Wolverines.
The officer of the State Humane
society says that Investigations around
the state show many barns unfit for the
housing of animals. The same is true
of chicken coops, hog houses, dog ken
nels, and other places where animals
are kept. These buildings should be
we'll banked up on the outside with
straw or manure and lined on the inside
with heavy building paper. The floors
should be kept we'll covered with clean,
dry straw foot deep. Clean, dry bed
ding is very important for all animals.
A door which may be closed nights
should open on the south, and there
should be windows with whole pieces
of glass for lights.
Friday evening last week the mem
bers of the Philomathean club and their
husbands enjoyed another of the wild
goose dinners for which the home of
Mr.. and Mrs. Dean Swift is justly fam
Gus. 1t is not a matter of luck when
Mr.. Swift brings down the swift flying
wild goose; neither is it matter of
good luck when Mrs. Swift prepares it
to the queens taste. It is art, and the
Philomatheans know it for they have
been coming to the home of Mr.. and
Mrs. Swift year after year during the.
hunting season and the dinner has be-
come almost an institution with the
club. The sorority evidently knows a
good thing when it sees it, and the hus-
bands have no other important engage
ment on the evening of the annual
goose dinner. The dinner last Friday
evening was as heartily enjoyed as
every preceding one. The home was
prettily decorated, and the company
spent delightful evening together. /
