693 Minnesota Herds on
National Honor Roll
Three Sank Centre Dairy Farmers
Have Cattle in Select
Class.

Nearly TOO Minnesota dairymen
who are members of cow testing
associations are on the Honor Roll
of the National Dairy association
for the fiscal year ending June 80,
1928. The exact number is 693
as contrasted with 632 last year,
524 in 1926, 388 in 1925, and 219
in 1924. To be on the Honor Roll
a dairyman must have developed a
herd of at least five COWS to a year
ly production average of 800
pounds or more of butterfat. In
Minnesota 80 per cent of all herds
in association testing won the right
to a place on the roll.
Forty-three herds averaged 400
pounds or more of butterfat per
COW for the last fiscal year. The
Howard Lake association led with
nine of these high herds, the Shell
Lake association had four, and the
Askov and Montrose associations
three each. Last year the 400
pound herds numbered 49,.
The association distributes every
year thousands Of handsomely en-
graved diplomas bearing the names
of the successful dairymen and the
average production Of their, herds.
A red seal upon, the diploma means
that the recipient has made the 400
pound class for, the first time; a
blue seal indicates that it is his
second achievement, and a gold
seal that it is his third. Many blue
and geld seals appear. on the dip

Junior Classic Present
Snappy Play MOB. 20
"cappy Kicks" Story of virile
American Business Life
Strong Cast

"Cappy Ricks," the vehicle chos-
en- by the Junior Class of the Sank
Centre Public school for their class
play is virile comedy of Ameri-
can business life, from the novel
of Peter B. Kyne.
The class personnel permits a
splendid cast Of the comedy which
will be, presented at the Junior
High School Auditorium under the
direction of Miss Mildred Osmund-
sen, Tuesday evening, Nov. 20. Re-
served seats will go on sale at Han
son & Emerson's Saturday morning
at 1000. Admission, adults, SOC;
children 25c.
The play this year is built around
the highly irascible but entirely
loveabfe character of "Cappy
Ricks," shrewd, adventurous, old
business man, who at sixty, is more
than a match for his younger con
temporaries. As the head of the
Blue Star Navigation Corporation,
he controls vast business and a
large fortune. That he enjoys
both is obvious, but the accumula-
ton of his fortune is quite incident
al to the real thrill of his life which
is the pure excitement of competi-
ton. Cappy has gone through life
taking very largely of what he
wants-exactly as he wants it Of
course, there was opposition, but
he has always been successful, un-
til his daughter Florry, whom he
worships, grows up and proves
that as Cappy's daughter, she, too,
can take from life what she wants.
Since she and her father disagree
as to what that is, {, there ensues
such a bushes IS scramble as ever
Cappy has rarely experienced. But
this episode, unlike others he has
known, is all bound round with
romance to suchs,an extent that
business and romance are interest
Iingly, sadly mixed. The end and
outcome follow all too soon for
those Of us who so thoroughly en-
joy Cappy's wild speeches, Florry's
quiet but none-the-less determined
methods, skinner-perhaps the only
one who really understands Cap
|py. Matt, the quiet bulldogged
fellow, "the only man to really
buck Cappy," and Cecil, comedy

LOCAL EDUCATlONE.
IMPORTANT FACTOR.
H. A. Falk, Head Of Sank
Centre Schools Chairman
of Committee
Is BIG STEP FORWARD
Members of School Faculties
Will Lose Less Time
From Duties "

The state convention of the Min
nesota Education Association held
in Minneapolis November 8. 9, and
10, marked the sixty-fifth annual
meeting of this organization. 1t
has grown until it is the largest or
ganization meeting in convention
in the state. In recent years it
was found necessary to create a
delegate assembly to transact its
business. The organization in
cluies six divisions in the state be-
sides the two Twin City divisions
of St. Paul and Minneapolis.
In recent years a movement
gained momentum to make the
state meeting delegate assembly
meeting only and dispense with the
program feature of the meeting.
The programs were to be carried
out in the divisional meetings. This
plan met with objections since it
would result in the loss Of state
wide contests of the educators as
we'll as the advantages to be. gained
from the metropolitan attractions
and atmosphere to be had in the
meetings held in the Twin Cities. !.
A study of the matter was made
under the direction of DIR. Leon
ard Koos, of the University of Min
nesota, this years president the
N. E. A. His report was given be-
fore the delegate assembly in its
meeting on Wednesday evening,
November 8. A committee COM
posed of the presidents of the var
ious divisions of the M. E. A. was
asked to present a solution of the
problem, H. A. Falk, of Sank Cen
tire, president of the Central Min
nesota division was chairman of
this convention. Little hope was
entertained for an acceptable solu-
ton at this session, due to COM
piexity of problems to be met. The
committee labored far into the
night and as a result of their eff
forts the chairman was able to
present resolution to the assemb-
ly for consideration at its first
session Thursday morning. The
merits of the plan were explained
by the chairman and the plan re-
commended for adoption. It YVES
passed by unanimous vote of the
delegates.
The new plan of the convention
provides for alternate meetings Of
the divisional and state conven-
lions but retains the annual meet
ing of the delegate assembly for
the transaction Of the necessary
business Of the ! association. In
1929 the convention will convene
in divisional meetings. The fol-
lowing year the divisional meetings
will be dispensed with and a state
program convention will be held.
Better programs and attendance
for both the divisional and state
meetings, expenses curtailed, and a
minimum of time lost through
closing of the schools for conven-
ton attendance are some of the
advantages of the new arrange
ment. Although radical depart
ure from the old order of things,
1t represents rational solution of
the problems in the natural evolu-
ton of such an important institu-
ton in educational advancement as
the Minnesota Education Associa-
ton.

 CHICAGO. Feb. 15--In the Col. iseum in Chicago in 1920, a seem ingly hopeless deadlock of the Republican national convention was broken when Frank o. Low den of Illinois, with 31112 votes for the presidential nomination, released his delegates. And Hard ing was chosen.
 High party honors were offered Lowden after that gesture. He might have been yice-president of the United States today, or am bassador to the Court of St. James. or cabinet officer, but he refused all such proffers
 Now he is again a contestant for the highest honor within the gift of his party, with the an nouncement of his candidacy for the Republican nomination in the Illinois primary
 The political anthology of Low den's career shows another in, stance of victory slipping away when it seemed inevitable. That was in 1903.
 He sought the Republican nom nation for governor of Illinois when the choice was made by convention. For 21 days the con vention was deadlocked, and on the seventy-ninth ballot he was defeated. He did not attain his ambition until 13 years later, be- ing Illinois war governor.
 Two terms in congress from 1906 to 1910 constitute the only other public office he has held, although he has served as Repub- lican national committeeman and convention delegate.
