Mr., Strcctcr put aside two busy
days to drive here from Phila-

gram last Friday evening at the

He had the largest audience ever
to attend one of these functions.
All cnrollces and a number of
business men heard Mr. Strceter
give his thoughts on Your Future
in Agriculture. Over two hundred
persons were in attendance
He considered that farming was
still the biggest business in thus
country and that it was getting
bigger not smaller
He also considered it the most
important, the most Indispensable
of all occupations, pointing out
that when do we eat?" is the
oldest question on earth and for
every human being it comes up
three times a day
Excerpts from his address are
given for the benefit of other farm

did attend to be able to recall his
remarks

Americas greatest strength comes
from the educational development
of the rcsourCcfulncSS of its peo-

strength was not being developed

been. To focus the attention of all
citizens, parents, and teachers on
the need for more and better edu-

This was in the year 1927 it
has been celebrated ever since.
And since that time great strides
have been made in the amount.
