GOLD MEDAL AWARDED
WILMINGTON cow FOR
HIGH PRODUCTION

The high butterfat yield of Golden
Double Dice, a purebred Jersey COW
owned by ]. Writ Willis, Whining
ton, in her first official production
test, started at the age of years
and 6 months, recently won for her
both an American Jersey Cattle
Club Gold Medal and the Delaware
State Championship for Jersey
cows over 5 years of age, 365-day
tests. During this test Double Dice
produced 1864 lbs. of butterfat and
1881 lbs. of milk. For nine months
during the twelve months of the
test she produced more than so lbs.
of butterfat per month. In her best
month she yielded a total of S1.92
lbs. of butterfat. During the time of
the test she was with calf for 100
days.
In winning the state Jersey age
class championship Double Dice su-
persedes Golden Lady Doris also
tested by Mr.. Willis. This former
champion held her place with a rec
ord of 642.22 lbs. of butterfat made
in a test started when she was
years and 4 months of age.
Mr.. Willis is one of the leading
Jersey breeders of Delaware and
production testing has been carried
on in his fine herd of purebred Jer-
seys for several years. In addition
to the state championship held by
Golden Double Dice, another indi-
vidual in his herd holds state Jer-
sey age class record.

THREE GOOD WIVES IN TEN,
CLUBS SURVEY INDICATES

Mans chances of picking a good
home-making wife are three in ten,
according to a survey of the Illinois
Federation of Women's Clubs. Wives
were divided in the survey into five
classes.
Home maker or Ideal type, 80 per
cent; Jazz, "can opener" type, 20
per cent; Nagging type. Is per cent;
Drudge type, 20 per cent; Baby doll
type, Is per cent.
A writer in Woman's Home Com
panion, citing the figures, summed
up the faults of wives in four of the
classes, declaring that they enjoy
poor health; they are always tired;
they are forever finishing the dishes;
they have the children always
around; they contract the kimono
habit; they go in for delicatessen
meals; they are always picking
things up; they fill the house with
relatives; they don't get around to
tidying things up; they go into that
after-marriage slump; they lose
their husbands.
"Not all wives" says the writer,
have time or money for thorough
making over. Perhaps the modern
woman in her enthusiasm for tack
ling new problems has been a little
slow to apply her new knowledge to
solution of the age-old problem
of how to get along with man."
Milford chronicle., 1929-07-19
GIVES RULES FOR DRESS

hood on:
First year: White.
Second, third and fourth years

Sixteen to twenty-fifth year: Tones

fashion and PERSONAL preference
dictate.
Twenty-fifth to thirty-f1fth year:
Tones for daytime; hues for. evening.
Practically no decoration.
Thirty-fifth to forty-fifth year:

P ATE LUNG HEON
FOR IDGE PART

Bridge parties are not entirely su
perseded by more strenuous summer
amusements. Devotees of the game
do not forego it even though the
weather is hot and the successful
bridge hostess will plan a luncheon
menu featuring dishes that are COO
and crisp and that will appeal to the
tagging appetite.
The plate luncheon is an ideal
form in which to serve the refresh
ments for the bridge party. Crystal
plates in white or color may be used
In fact if the entire service is in
glass the suggestion of GOODNESS will
be that much greater.

URGES PUPILS TO REMAIN
IN SCHOOL AS SENIORS

The Cleveland board of education
buted among junior high school stu
dents to encourage them to continue
in the senior high school and to help
them select the proper course of
study.
l was invited to contribute to this
booklet, and this is what 1 wrote:
"The benefits of education are
real.
What the world needs are people
who can observe, think, and analyze.
Few employers have either the
time or ability to train the minds of
young people. The custom is to as
sign them to routine jobs that offer
little or no opportunity for develop
ment. Lacking the mental disci-
pline which is part of good high
school course, the young man and
woman are unprepared for advance
ment.
"In addition to material advan-
tages, complete high school edu-
cation offers valuable cultural
gains. 1t adds to the appreciation
and enjoyment of life by introducing
one to good books, and by opening
paths of thought in all branches of
knowledge which can later be ex-
plored on ones own initiative.
81 strongly urge every boy and
girl to whom school work is not dis
tasteful and painful to continue in
school.
81 am grateful that 1 went through
high school and later through col
lege. 1 do not think I could have
succeeded in the work am now do
ing without this education. In ev-
cry sense, the investment was pro-
ductive."

FIREFLIES

Ere the last ray of sunlight has
faded
Softly the firefies come;
Their lights flash, and quickly are
shaded,
Swiftly darting, they roam.
Then as the dark shadows lengthen,
More clearly their tiny lights
glow;
Against the dark earth their lights
strengthen,
AS quickly they fit to and fro.
'Mong hedges and shrubbery they
glitter,
AS cheerfully dancing they go;
And watching their CHEEKY lights
flicker,
More calm and more peaceful we
grow.
So let us take a hint from these Gre
atures,
So tiny yet powerful too;
Let us tighten our own gloomy fea-
lures,
By smiling and not looking blue.
Mildred Wills, Altoona, Pa.
