sion of the Presidents New Arm
Chair. But truth Is stranger than
fiction. When he came upon the plat
form that evening in 1883 he bowed to
President Pepper, whose portrait
hangs upon that wall. TO him again
he bows in grateful memory. And
now the freshman Of the class Of 81
bows to one who on that evening was
a sophomore of the class of 80. the
beloved president of this college,"
The full meaning of the incident ap-
peared as Mr.. Bassett. turning from
his bow to the portrait of President
Pepper made very low bow to the
former sophomore and now president.
AS Mr.. Bassett at the close Of the
poem again bowed to President Rob-

Chairman of the Board of Trustees
arose TO present The Presidents
Chair. his gift to the college. Judge
Cornish gives while he lives. No one
Is more generous of his time and his
resources for all good causes than
he. His generous loyalty to and his
love for his college have been shown
again and again. His administra-
ton of the college affairs within his
jurisdiction has been and Is as broad
and sound as his administration in
the Supreme Court. Every graduate
Of the college knows this and their
respect and affection for him is ex-

The Position of the
Parties in England

CONTINUED from preceding page.)
munist Party. Right into the autumn
of 1923 it was undergoing structural
Transformation making a first at
tempt to apply the Third Congress de-
cisions OF the Comintern. During the
whole Of this period 1t hardly managed
to hold its own members. New mem
bers joined the Party but old ones left
as quickly. The whole of this activity
has been in the midst Of tremendous
depression in the ranks of the working
class. Still further changes were
made as a result of the conference of
the party executive with the Comm
tern E. G. in the middle of last year.
1t was not until the beginning of 1924
that it was possible for the develop
ments then agreed upon to get moving.
The main lines agreed upon were
sound but it will take time for them
to show the results we are after.
During the last eighteen months the
party has concentrated so much on or
ganization and the development Of the
circulation of the party paper, tried 50
hard to transform itself in terms Of a
paper scheme that the membership be-
came tired. It needed new inspiration
and enthusiasm. 1t was complained
that the Executive was out Of contact
with the members and there was good
grounds for the complaint. There had
been no party conference for months
more than a year. 1t had been put
off time and again. Finally we held a
conference. Snags were removed. Pre-
parations made for Party Congress
were afoot. The whole political situa-
ton changed and brought new vitality
in the fight. And the Party has begun
to grow.
But we have still to face the char
acteristic failing of the British move
ment as a whole. We have got to get
past the stage Of the purely prop
agandist party, conducting general
propaganda, and become political
party Of struggle. For this we need
also toning up of the quality OF the
party, the development of its theo-
IGllCdl CQulRA1Chey Al OAOOA " ~ -~~SAO
to diagnose correctly the significance
of the political events that are unfold
ing and to deal with them concretely
and with revolutionary purpose. All
this will take time and require pa
thence and persistence. But one thing
is certain That the party was never
in a better condition than it is today,
and it was never faced with greater
opportunities for development.
The position of the parties is such
that the two capitalist parties, the
Liberals and the Tories, are still in
turmoil and unable to take decisive
action, and the Labor Party has begun
to reveal to the masses of the workers
concretely the meaning of gradual
ISM" while the Communist Party has
become the one center to which the
workers can turn as their eyes are
opened to the great illusion.

Bob Finally Died.

Most everyone in this section
and especially near Camp Winnepe,
knew Bob" the friendly English
bull dog owned by Matt Morrison,
and who never missed a summer
when the camp was in operation
on Catfish. Well, Bob finally
passed away, some measley kid in
st. Louis hitting him on the bean
with a rock, which caused his sud-
den demise. Some sixteen years
of age was Bob, and for the past
ten or a dozen years, when DR..
Matt was a kid at camp, the old
dog was an asset to the setting of
Winnepe and never missed his
regular bed time nor meal for
that matter. After fellow has
"palled" it with a faithful dog
for sixteen years it sure does leave
vacancy in friendship and we
sympathize with Mr.. Morrison in
the taking of good old Bob.

SPUDS MADE A RECORD
Exhibits at Recent Fair Prove
Fact That Villas County is
in the Lead.

One could not view the exhibits
of potatoes at the Villas county
Fair without realizing that this
crop is fast becoming a staple
produce in Villas county. The
showing of tubers was fine and
the quality good, though the ex-
hibit was not as large as those of
previous years. The potato crop
throughout the entire country was
not as great as usual and the
prices offered are high. Villas
county farmers are fortunate in
possessing a fair crop of quality
potatoes and results justify the
attitude of the officials of the Fair
Association in featuring and en-
couraging the raising of standard
varieties of potatoes in Villas
county.
Nearly all the standard varieties
of potatoes were shown, but those
demanding especial attention were
the Rural New Workers Green
Mountain, Triumphs, Cobblers and
Early Ohio. The increase in potato
entries made it necessary for the
fair officials to arrange the CLASH
fication of the potato exhibits.
All entries made by adults who
have held first prize in potatoes
at any previous fair, were placed
in the Professional class. All
other adult entries were placed in
the Amateur class; and all entries
by children under 16 were placed
in the Children's class. This ar
rangement doubled the interest
shown in the potato exhibits and
increased the number of individ-
ual prizes, also making it unneces-
sary for beginners to compete
with those having more expert
ence.
1t is quite impossible to enumer-
ate and mention all the splendid
exhibits in the department of
Horticulture, in this short article.
The exhibit in Threshed grains
was excellent and the Sheaf grains
and Grasses were fine as usual.
The exhibit of Alfalfa and Glover
was of high quality. The showing
in corn was small due to the poor
weather conditions for this crop
and the failure to ripen before the
frost came; which was a result of
the late start in the early growing
season.
The showing of Fruit was small,
but the specimens were of excel
lent quality, and one was sur
prised at the variety of fruits
shown, which outlined forcibly the
possibilities in this branch of
Horticulture in Villas county.
The potatoes and vegetables
were judged by A. C. Murphy,
County Agent of Shawano county
and Mr.. Gibson, former County
Agent of Villas county.
