penses of the Athletic Association

filled, demonstrating. Worthington's
unflinching loyalty, to its schools.
The
program
presented was one
of' "unusual merit, consisting \Sf
chorus selections, solos and
quartetts, interspersed with recita­

E. church officiating. Mr. North was
formerly a conductor on the Omaha

Prospects of the Cream Shipper
Up in Hinckley, Minn., there was
a private local creamery doing a
fair business in spite of fierce com­
petition with the centralizers in
Duluth and in the twin cities. The
ererabery burned down the other
day and the very next morning,
so Mr Knickerbocker,4 one of the
proprietors tells us, the price of
cream dropped three cents per
pound on butter fat. Farmers
shipping Away their iore^m instead
of patronizing their locat creamer^
should Stop and consider what is
surely coming to them the minute
the local creamery shuts its doors.
Only by supporting and patroniz­
ing the local, preferably co-opera­
tive, creamery, can the farmer in­
sure for himself a square deal in
the disposal of his dairy products.—
