Chicago Dairy Show Draws Large Crowds Chicago—The spotlight of the dairy world is focused on Chicago October 9-16 when the continent’s top dairy herds are on view here _in the International Amphitheatre. The 2nd annual International Dairy Show, and World Championship Rodeo in conjunction, will attract the year’s largest showing of the five dairy breeds and Milking Shorthorns- known as iUAI purpose cattle for their production of both beef and milk. The entry of approximately 2000 animals comes from 500 dairy cattle breeders in 27 states. Canada and Cuba. “Miss Universe” Featured A glamor tpuch to the cattle judging in the International Amphitheatre this year will be Mirian Stevenson, of Winnsboro, S.C.

Sara Cuse Says . ♦ By Ardis Larson. Oct. 5, 1954 Dear Mrs. Larson: Our daughter, Mrs. Floyd Green, is a subscriber to the Journal. After she has read the paper she sends it down to us. This makes quite a trip for the paper going from Indiana, to northern Minnesota and then on down to us in central Florida. Then we pass it on to our friends, the R. G. Wines, also former Lakers. So you can see the paper is enjoyed by a lot of people. Naturally, as you know our former home was near the Hatcheries and it is from around there we always look for news of our many friends. And so it was with interest that we read your article in a recent issue about the Fish Hatcheries but especially’ the past about the many times you had watched the sunset from “The apartments above the Bait house". So many times when I came down o Galloways Grocery I s w you I’ting on the porch, drink ng your tofft ard enjoying the view, from a- ortments we once owned j\v many mes we enjoyed those onsets both from our home and also ?he apartment. "While wo love our present home n Fiori, a and the many beautiful eights we see down here there will never be anything more beautiful thsai the sunsets or moonlight on Lake Wawasee. We are again looking forward to the time when the Galloways will be down here for part of the winter. We also enjoy having them and the many happy days we have fishing together. Also to get caught up on the latest from Wawasee Lake. In the meantime, until they get here we will be looking to the Journal to give us that news. I forgot to mention in the beginning that our daughter was a former resident at Wawasee. and took an active part In the “Friendly Neighbors". I think you will remember her. 9 Thanks again for giving us the news. Sincerey. Hazel Creswell • • • Paul Wiese. Ogden Island, W’awasee, is making boasts that 5-months-old baby Gayle Wiese will do some fishing, come summer. Mother Billie Wiese Emmerson*, isn't so sure about that, and Sara has a feeling that Gayle is feelin’ fit and rarin’ to go, but Mom and Pop . . . mostly Mom? will likely arrange the fishing angle. • • • Gather ’round, lovers of antique hanging lamp beauties who have a “mix and match” lamp set. meetly mix. there's an artist who can take your miv and make it match, tis Beadie Zimmerman.

Was that fun or fury, fellows? Going out of Goshen toward Elkhart, an uusual sight was seen, 7 automobiles moving slowly, inside the speed limit even, toward Goshen, no ambulance, no police car. etc., in sight, just 7 cars, actually obeying the law! • • • "I’m Lost”, says a sign under a pretty red cap at ngler’s Cove, let's borrow the sign and put it under the 2 good caps hanging hopefuUr near the soda baa - in Thornburgs, quite some time now, looking for their owners.

View a “Trash-Tosser”, tossed a dilly—a pasteboard box of tin can and garbage dainties which make quite a splash. Believe me saw a bottle amongst the rubble. Twas a polite Trash-Tosser however, as was downright thoughtful to leave it on a highway, instead of tossing it inn the brush. According to the Indianapolis Star, bottles in trash have been snagged in teeth of farmery mowers, and farmers have reported gashed feet when checking the mower's stoppage. The Star points out that a tractor with large tires can turn over if a tire is suddenly deflated by broken glass. Oakwood Park Mr. Orvil R. Marshall is now back home after his operation. He was operated on in the Lutheran hospital in Fort Wayne on September 28. He is feeling very well and we are all glad to see him back in his home.
