AGED DENHAM LADY

Anna Malene Hanson was born at

She emigrated to the United Sattes
in 1888. Before coming to this coun-
try she had been married to Ole Han
son. She and her husband settled
first at Morris, ILL.,, and then moved to
Birch Creek township, Pine county in

PINE CITY POSTMISTRESS GETS
INVITATION FROM PRESIDENT

Ema Gum Perkins, postmistress at
Pine City, has been invited to attend
President Hoover's conference on
Home Building and Home Ownership
to be held December 2 to 5 at Wash
ington but because Of a rush of work
in the post office brought on by the
near approach of Christmas, Mrs. Per-
kins cannot make the trip.
President Hoover's conference is an
important step in the great movement
to make home owners of the American
people. There will be five committee
meetings during the conference in ad-
dition to several general sessions and
a correlating committee meeting on
the last day of the conference. Some
of the greatest authorities on home
building, engineering and financing
will address the conference. Among
the subjects to be considered are,
"City Planning and coming TYPES
of Dwellings," Housing and the Com
munity," "Construction," Household
Management, Taxation" and RE
lating of Income and the Home
AS leaders in the discussions will
be some of the country's great
est authorities. The speakers W. II
include such men as Fredric A.
Delano, President of the American
Civic Association; Robert P. Lamont,
Secretary of Commerce; Thomas S.
Adams, Professor of Political Econ
omy, Yale University; and Frederick
Fl. Ecker President, Metropolitan Life
Insurance Company, and other men of
equal prominence.
The subject of home ownership is
one that is very vital to the average
American citizen. Every man and
woman wishes a home of their own
and the problem of acquiring home
is one that seriously confronts every
one earning the average wage or sal
airy. To make home owning easier
and less burdensome financially is one
of the objectives and the coming
conference promises to bring for h
some definite results. The build
ing of many homes in America
during the coming ten years will
aid very material i'm stimulating bus
mess, relieving unemployment, and
provide more adequate housing facil-
tiles for the increasing population, it
is argued.

eggs. According to the rules set forth
by the Association, pens Of chickens
consist of one male and four females.
Single entries are also made in the
chicken and other classes with limit
of three birds in each class, such as
three cocks, three hens, three cock
erels, three pullets, or three capons.
In the egg class two classes are pro-
vided, brown and white. No entry fee
is charged in this class. but for an
exhibitor to be eligible for the egg
class, entries must be made in some
other class. Entries must be in the
hands of the Secretary, L. F.. Appleby,
at Pine City, by December 8.
A special class for All Club Poul-
try members has been provided No
entry fees will be charged for All
Club members exhibits. However, be-
turkey, and duck enrollments, prizes
will be paid only on chickens of stan
dard varieties in this class. Other
members may show in the open class
The management of the show is
fortunate in securing the services OF
Professor A. G. Smith of the univer-
sity as judge. AS judge he has
a wonderful record for he has judged
at Madison Square Garden, New York
at Chicago, Topeka, Kansas, Philadel-
phia, Seattle and other shows of ma
tional prominence. During 1915, 1923
and 1880, Professor Smith was the
editor of the American Standard of
Perfection, book which gives the
standards by which breeds of poultry
are judged everywhere in the United
States. With few exceptions, Profes-
sor Smith has Judged at the State
Poultry show and at the State Fair
show. Mr.. Smith is head of the poul-
try department at the state university,
He will undoubtedly be very busy at
the show but he is known to be
courteous and willing to answer ques-
tiOns.

shows recently held, at which some
600 birds were shown, the Pine county
