Lawn Judge Will Be Here Sunday; Every One Clean Up.
Get busy now and ' > Clean the yard; The time is short, So let’s work hard;._ The judge is' coming To gjve the prize So pull up the weeds And swat the flies. ,<. J. H. Holden arranged at Purdue Thursday Lor one of the professors to come here Sunday morning and judge the premises for the award of prizes which are to be given. -Since the rains the grass hfis grown very rapidly and Rensselaer ‘is not looking quite as well, as it did a year ago when the lawns were judged. In fact, there are weeds and rubbish along the streets in many places and it will take a lot of work to get things “dolled” up for inspection, but if all will work much can be accomplished. Especially should all who have "worked hard on their places this summer leave nothing undbhe now, for the judge will criticise the little things and a few small weeds, an untrimmed tree or a little tall grass work against the chance of getting in for a prize or for favorable mention.
