SMALL AUDIENCE HEARS
EMORY GLEE CLUB QUINTET

Unfortunately for the Emory Glee
club quintet and more especially for
the people of Dawson, the weather
conditions were so unfavorable Fri
day night that only a small audience
attended the performance at the school
auditorium. Those who braved the
elements were fully repaid. The En-
DRY Glee club quintet is considered, by
competent judges, to be one of the
very best group of entertainers in the
south.

LIST, 1924. Considering that this
department did not have single
article to sell at the beginning of
the eight months, a $4,000
profit seems very large. Cream
cry buttermakers and directors
were astonished at the big profit
made on articles of supplies used
in creameries.
The meeting took a rising vote,
passing resolution to give Mr..
Rasmussen and the Creamery
Supply Department their hearty
cooperation and support.
District Number Two is the
leading district in the state, and
has the recognition of the largest
buyers of fancy butter on the
eastern markets.
Several creameries in the dis
trict are now receiving a premi-
um over extras for their butter
as a result of the fieldman's work
in grading of cream and sugges-
tons on improving the quality.
Every creamery in the district
receives cream that can be made

another year. Delegates ex-
pressed satisfaction, and gener-
al good feeling existed. Cream
cries who were previously COM
petitors are now co-operators and
are working together aiming for
the very best results and maxi
mum profits for the patrons.
The feldman speaks highly of
the'buttermakers and they have
shown their loyalty by giving
him their full cooperation and
support. Creamery boards and
patrons throughout the district
have given their buttermakersr
the Creameries Association and
its fieldman their full support,

saying that the creameries in

Saving To creameries above
cost OF membership dues s 1851 90
From this report it can be seen
that the creameries in the Dis
trict have saved considerable
more money than they have paid
into the Association. And fur
thermore only part of the money
paid into the Association has
been spent. The balance will
eventually be returned to the
creameries. Dues to the Associa-
ton has been reduced and as
more creameries join, the dues
can be lowered still more.

Wirts told Solicitor Barnes that he.
