I have never known them to fail to capture their audiences early in their entertainment, and I have seen and heard them many times—for 1 never lose an opportunity to hear them, and they are invariably called back for return dates.—Eiden Small, News Editor Detroit (Mich.)

Two separate short courses are given in dairying—an eight weeks' creamery course and an eight weeks’ course in dairy farming. The creamery course is designed especially for those who expect to or are engaged in the manufacture of butter, cheese and other dairy products. It deals with all the phases of work essential for the successful operation and management of creameries. The purpose of the farm dairy course is to acquaint the student with the knowledge of producing milk economically, milk that is clean and sanitary and of making butter of the highest quality. The course covers instructions in all essential phases of Dairy farming, from the construction of dairy barns to the making of the finished product. Our laboratories are equipped with new and most up-to-date machinery and no effort has been spared to surround the student with facilities and opportunities for efficient and practical training. The demand in Indiana for trained dairy and creamery men by far exceeds the supply, offering unusual opportunities to those who are equipped with the dairy school training. For details write to O. F. Hunziker, chief of dairy department, Purdue University, Lafayette, ln<t. See the window display, full line of prayer books, rosaries; a fine line of church goods, and an up-to-date line of religious postal cards i at Didot, the jeweler.
