COOP CREAMERIES
SPONSOR CALFWORK
WabassO and MilrOy Creameries
Give Prizes in Dairy Calf
Club Work for 1928.

Dairy Calf Club Work is being
sponsored by the Wabasso Co-opera-
tive Creamery this year to the ex-
tent of a special appropriation of
$4,000 to go to club members whose
parents are patrons of the Wabasso
Creamery. The plan proposed is to
award a minimum prize of $500 to
each club member, up to twenty, and
pro-rate for each member above that,
who carries out the dairy calf club
project and finishes their work and
shows the calf at the County Contest
at Wabasso in August. The only re-
quirement is that the calves must be
of the dairy breed, either grade or
purebred; if grade, must be sired by
a sire of one of the dairy breeds. Club
members must be from 10 to 20 years
of age inclusive.
The Milroy Cooperative Creamery
has sponsored club work in similar
manner last year and is continuing
with even a greater appropriation
for 1923. Milroy makes this re-
quirement: that the calves must be
imported into the territory from be-
yond radius of fifteen miles from
Milroy. The purpose of this is to
build up a bigger dairy business
around Milroy. Miiroy's plan is to
award minimum prize of $500 re-
gardless of number, and in addition
to this they are awarding a $4.00
minimum prize to those who continue
with the calves they shipped in in
1927, providing they carry out their
project and finish up their work and
show at the Milroy Market Day in
the fall.

INTERESTING TALK
AT P.-T.A. SESSION
Anna SwensOn, Director of Rur-
al Education, Gives Inspir-
ling Talk Monday Eve.

An extremely inspiring talk was
given at the Parent Teachers Asso-
citation regular monthly meeting held
at the Lincoln school auditorium on
Monday evening, February 9th. The
program featured Anna Swenson,
director of Rural Education from the
Minnesota Department of Education.
Miss Swenson used as her theme in
her address Conduct Education" and
stressed many points of Importance
in the teaching of the children.
In quoting from President Coolidge
that mere intelligence is not enough
in education, Miss Swenson proceed
ed to explain three points of i'm
portance that are of benefit, in more
ways than one, to the children. The
first was to cultivate desires that
would give them happiness, explain
ing that happiness was the formula
for keeping the children from cul-
tivating habits that would be of no
value to them as they grow older.
Two other important points in
Miss Swenson's talk were to teach
the children to think for themselves
and to teach appreciation. Miss
Swenson being well acquainted with
child education work, came to Red
wood Falls with a message not only
of interest but of value to the local
association. Her talk will long be re-
membered and it is hoped by many
that at some later date the services
of Miss Swenson may again be Sc
cured.
Due to illness the Minuet that was
to have been acted by the children of
the third and fourth grades was can
celled from the program. A male
quartet of Smith, Ball, Williams and
Anthony and with Mrs. Anthony ac-
companying rendered selection. A
social hour followed the program
which was presided over by the As
sociation's newly elected president,
DR.. j. w. Inglis.
