WALKERTON Will GIVE PURE BRED SIRE AWAY B. & O. Better Sire Special Will Attract Hundreds of Farmers To Walkerton Friday Afternoon. Everything is in readiness for the better dairy special train which will be operated over the Baltimore & Ohio railroad across northern Indiana this week, starting Monday afternoon at Garrett, Ind., and stopping in Walkerton Frdiay afternoon, Nov. 6, from 1 to 5 o’clock. The train is to be operated by the railroad in cooperation with Purdue University department of agriculture extension, the national dairy council. Hoard’s Dairyman, and various cattle breed associations. A purebred heifer will be given away by local business men as a prize at each stop to some farmer who is interested in better cattle, and purebred bulls from high producing families of cattle will be sold at each fidace. An interesting program to include addresses by Purdue workers, county agricultural agents, railroad representatives, and the dairy paper publisher will be held at each stop. Some farmer who visits the train on Friday afternoon will be the lucky winner of a pure bred sire, free of all cost. Every farmer visiting the train who lives in Walkerton territory who milks not less than three cows will have a free chance to win the sire. The animal will be the gift of the Walkerton business men who believe in encouraging better stock on the farm, and will be of the breed to match the herd of the winner. The Better Dairy Sire Special will be made up of an eight or ten coach train including exhibit, lecture and demonstration cars, along with cars of livestock for demonstration, asd distribution or sale. Representatives of the Holstein- I Friesian, Jersey and Guernsey Breeders Association will offer for sale bulls which will be carried on the train. These bulls will have been tested for tuberculosis and "will be animals true to breed type and their datps will have had high producing records behind them. The sales .will be made the day the train is in Walkerton and animals sold will be taken from the train as soon as sale is made.' Every animal is guaranteed by the Breed Association to be a breeder. Any farmer who has a scrub or grade sire and desires to turn him in towards the purchase price of bulls purchased from the train will be allowed to do so. These scrubs will be taken on the train and carried to the Union Stock Yards at Chicago, where they will be sold. Whatever price the animal brings on the market will be refunded to the owner by check. C. I. Reamer of the Liberty road, and John H. Gates of North Liberty, have been scouting the country for some time for pure bred sires to be sold on the train to farmers desiring to purchase same. There will be some interesting talks given by County Avent E C Bird. O. K. Quivey. B. & O. agricultural agent. A. J. Glover. Editor Hoard's Dairyman. R. D. Canan of Purdue University and a Walkerton business man. For the women a special talk will be given in the Community Club rooms by Miss Elsie Stark, who will Whve some very handsome cook books to give away and a talk very much worth while. All-in-all, the Better Sire Special train will be one of the biggest events for the farmer to be held n Walkerton for some time and a large crowd is expected a.t 1 o’clock Friday afternoon. The train will be parked near the B. & O. depot in Walkerton. Walkerton Athletic Club to Reorganize „ ■ Several men who held membership in the Walkerton Athletic club last year have requested that a reorganization be effected. The board of education and teachers in the high school who coadh and manage athletics have decided to give the use of the gymnsium on Monday evenings from eight to ten o'clock, to the local men providing these requirements are met: (1) That the membership of this club be limited to men who are resdents of the town of Walkerton; (2) That volley ball and indoor baseball be made the major sports, (3) That no basketball practice or games be undertaken bv t is club. (4) That no one use the i—»xed floor without wearing rubber soled shoes. It is only fair to make these : tetenumts es explanation before an organization u ting is held. Those own who t-- ini ' tod in vollev hall and indoor has* 11 are welcome to meet at the gymnasium on j»o-t ' r .>nd-o oven’ng, Nov. 9. nt 8 o’clock Th 1 who are n< ’ residents of Walkcto" O’ - am not : nterested in vollev ' and indoor ’seball should not apply for member/hitp. The gymnasium w’ll be ax it'-de on Monday e enpi -• —lv and for he hour® of icht to i ■ o'clock. Tn making those conditions it w<s printed out bv the school authorities •hat ha-kef ba” ws objected to t e grounds 'h - 't would po-i’ lv lead to the or- miration of in Independent team which would detract from the high chool ■ mes and demand a la~ger use* of t’” vm. With the present demand for the use of the gym bv the two school teams, orchestra and band practice, operettas, etc., no more than the o hours time can be given the club.

PAVE THREE MILES ON LIBERTY ROAD County Council Vote to Pave From Riley Road Thru North Liberty To Oue Mile North of Town. On the petition of numerous farmers and others residiug along Liberty highway, from the Ri»cy road to the first four corners north of North Liberty, the St. Joseph county council approved a plan for the construction of an improved concrete highway at their meeting last Monday. This decision carne after the council, in a previous meeting, had voted to build only a >part of the road and then only under the condition that the town of North Liberty pay a part of the cost of paving in North Liberty. The meeting Monday at South Bend was attended by about fifteen citizens of North Liberty, members of the town council and Chamber of Commerce who with attorn^vs ;>-t---an and Miller Guy. presented reasons why the road should b- 1 nLt thru the town to the four corn rs north of town. Following this meeting the council went into secret session anil after a stormy period, >ot- , ed to build the road next year. ; The decision was gratefully te- . ceived by the numerous advocates । of the road, not only in and near ! North Liberty, but by all thos»2 us- : ing the road. Will Observe Father And Son Sunday The M. E. Sunday school will observe Father and Son week next Sunday morning at the usual Sunday school hour.

Armstrong. j Notre Dame has resiliency in the : 1925 team, which is a great relief to ' one Mr. Rockne and a nation-wide • host of followers. The ability to be ; : stretched and pushed a little is a । good thing in a team, it keeps it from becoming so brittle that the first strain cracks it entirely. And . it also means that- when it Is , stretched too far will bound back with much force. Minnesota and ; Georgia Tech realize that the Army [ i stretched a few points too far. Hows long the rebound is going to last and whether his team can reach normal without bouncing to the oth- , er side of the line again, is what is worrying Rockne, although worries aren’t so heavy as they were earlier in the season. ' The same combination worked against Georgia Tech that was suct cessful against Minnesota with the same successful results and it begins to look as though Rockne’s - careful planning was bearing fruit ? and without half the heavy price that most inexperienced teams have I to 'pay. If Rockne has bought the • team he seems to have for the price r of even the Army game and one other, which at this date locks to i be most likely Nebraska, most peo- - pie will think he has a bargain. . Practically all his men will be hack - next year, which to a coach is about I as close as the milennium can come ) when the team is good Four long trips. Army, Minnesota, r j Georgia, and Penn state, form a new I ! and risky experience for the Notre | Dame team. After the complete 1 | change of the first journey with its j disastrous results the team settled ' down for the following two Satur- । days, but the fourth game is going ’ | to be a test. Penn State has been des ‘ seated by Georgia Tech and Syrat * cuse, but Hugo Bezdek. is n ®t with | out some guile and the Penn State l ! attack is not without some strength. - । Notre Da'me is confident that if ■ the P^nn State game is won Rockne ■ can commence to point for Nebraska. Not that Carnegie Tech or - | Northwe tern ‘tan be ignored, but t they meet Notre Dame on Cartier Field and Notre Dame crowds h: ve refuser] to let a Notre Dame t* m 1 ; lose on that field for 29 years. . nd the showings of both invadei = in ■their games to date do not indicate th-e they - ill shatter the tradPb n. ’ Nebrask- has net proven the ybeno- . menon of the season that was : nti'ripated before the year ".ns undei -way, but Nebraska is strnn nd against Notre Dame stronger. - - PUBT IC SAII7 At thr Green 1 >ke farm. 4 ■••'s I south of LaPm-te on the NLe ^hurv , . road. :• Thursdav.
