w. o. w. Hall improvements


The local amp, Woodmen of the
World, nave worked out plan to i'm
prove the interior of their lodge room
and hall, which is now being done by
Joel H. Miller. The partitioning has
been entirely removed, also the low
ceiling and the chimney. In their place
will be erected commodious stage at
the north end of the room, thereby
giving much additional space for seat
ing purposes, which was useless here
tofore. The raising of the ceiling will
provide much better room for speak
ing and musical parts and also afford
a basketball floor, if desired. The re-
placing of the chimney will be done in
such manner that it will be concealed
and not obstruct the view, as has been
| the case in the past. This arrange
ment will be a most welcome one by
the people of the community, from the
entertainment standpoint, as the town
has lacked a proper hall for many
years. The local camp is to be com
mended for their prompt action at
ter having worked out the plan which
was just recently completed.
Dairy Short Course.
Mr.. Emerson Bishoff, instructor in
agriculture in the high school here,
says: "The Agricultural Department
of our high school is arranging for a
short course in dairying. This course
will last throughout the week Of
March 1928, and topics of greatest
interest to the farmers are to be dis
cussed."
Desire for a course in the breeding
Of dairy animals has been expressed
by many. 1t is hoped that such a
course will tie up with the feed school
which so many attended last year
with interest and profit. Certainly
every man OF woman who owns COW
cannot afford to miss this opportunity
of studying with DR.. DeVoe Meade,
Dairy Specialist at the University Of
Maryland"
The school is to be commended up
on this action and the people having
dairy animals should certainly not
miss this course, as dairying is one OF
the coming sources of income for this
community, and he who loses the in
come loses large part of his liveli-
hood. Show your interest in your
school by letting it help you, Mr..
Dairyman.
