First Plans Made for
Junior Livestock Show

Junior 1slVe$COCk SnOW
For the tenth year All club
boys and girls of Minnesota are
fitting their baby beeves, fat lambs,
lard type and bacon type barrows,
cockerels, and fat young geese,
ducks and turkeys for the Junior
Livestock Show at South st. Paul,
show which is independent of
the state fair or any other similar
enterprise and is said to be the
largest and best of It's kind in this
country.
The dates selected by the execu-
tive committee are November Z to
10 inclusive. J.. s.. Montgomery,
of the Central Cooperative asso-
citation, formerly with the agricul-
tural extension service of the uni
versity, has been appointed gener-
al manager of the show. Various
committees have been named to
cooperate with him. Judges of
livestock will soon be selected.
The junior show has been so out
standing in its achievements and
benefits that many influential citi-
zens and organizations cooperate
each year with the boys and girls
club department of the university
and the Minnesota Livestock
Breeders association in carrying
on the live stock workout over the
state until it eliminates at South
st. Paul every November. All
animals and fowls to be shown
were prize winners in contests at
county and community fairs and
are therefore the pick of the
more than eight thousand raised
and fitted by the Juniors.

will play it spart in observing the
week. Every Legion Post and
Auxiliary unit in Minnesota and
throughout America has been sup
piled with the special daily pro-
gram details, and has been urged
by National Commander Spafford
and State Commander Zumwinkle
to seek the cooperation of all in
putting them into practice.
The following is quoted from
the instructions furnished: "Let
this week be time of deeper UNI
derstanding on the part of the peo-
pie of the role education has play
ed, is playing, and must play in
the life of our great democracy.
That nation is greatest which puts
the child first in its thinking, in it's
statecraft, in its business, in its
ideals of conduct. the nation that
has the highest regard for child
hood will lead all others in health,
intelligence, morality, efficiency,
and happiness. 1t will reach the
greatest heights of national pros
perity, both material and spiritual.
The race moves forward through
it's children"
Each day of Education Week,
November 7-13, is devoted to a
special angle of education. For
instance, there is "Know Your
School" day; "School Opportunity"
day; Community Improvement"
day; and on Nov. II the exercises
will focus attention along patriotic
lines, commemorating the heroism
and sacrifice of those who gave
their lives to bring to the world
the peace of The Armistice. Ma
tional and state as well as local
Legion and Auxiliary officers ap-
preciate the cooperation of the
press in this observance.

Garage Men to Report Damaged
Cars

The state law requires every
person in charge of garage or
repair shop to report to the police
or sheriff Immediately, and to the
registrar of motor vehicles within
twenty-four hours, any car which
shows evidence of having been in
a serious accident or struck by a
bullet.
Such reports may be of great
help to the police and sheriffs in
their efforts at law enforcement.
Stolen cars may often be identi-
fled, and occasionally criminals
may be apprehended, through such
information. The report should be
made even if the garage man
knows that the owner is a law
abiding citizen. In such caseu the
reports will he used only for sta
tistical purposes.

Traffic LauUs
Children Driving Automobilea

Children Driving Automobiles
The last Legislature reduced the
age limit of driveu from sixteen
to fifteen years. Persons under
fifteen may drive If they are &C
companied by duly licensed
chauffeur, or by the owner, or by
a competent person over fifteen
authorized by the owner to ac-
company the driver, provided the
owner is over fifteen.
With schools in session, there is
a temptation to let youngsters
drive the car. The Minnesota law
is unusually liberal, and no boy or
girl should be allowed to drive UNI
less he or she comes within the
provisions of the law.
Even if they are over the age
limit, boys and girls should be
carefully instructed in the traffic
rules and the operation of the car
before they are allowed to drive.

small brothers as they were return

According to the story gathered
by the police, Ralph, with his two
brothers, Joseph, age 8. and Fran

postofiice, located ON the Shore
road near Mill road. Both small
boys declare they were holding
Ralph. but that he gave an unex-

from them.
Before they could stop him, and
almost before they could realize
what had happened the huge truck
swung along and the small boy dis
appeared beneath its wheels.

MAINLAND FRIENDS
COMPLIMENT BARCUS
Prohibition Chief is Return
ed To This District
Following Transfer

Mainland friends of Willard e.
Barcus are today congratulating
him on his reinstatement as chief
Of the. Atlantic City enforcement
bureau following his recent removal
from this district.
Two months ago, after having
made a number of sensational raids
on South Jersey thicket stills and
destroying hundred of gallons of
moonshine' liquor, he was sudden
~ superseded by William J. Knight,
whom he now succeeds.
Barcus fought his demotion and
wrote a caustic letter to Colonel
Ira L. Reeves, former state admins
traitor, claiming that the bootleggers
had forced his transfer.
