HKWAKN OF FAKE POULTRY
SPECIALISTS
"Reports have reache'd this office
that certain parties claiming to be
representatives of certain poultry
associations or in some way con-
nected with the Board of Agricu-
lture are going about over the coun-
try posing as poultry specialists.
"These parties are getting permis-
sion to cull farm flocks and are buy-
ing the culls. It Is reported that
many very good flocks have been
ruined 4y these men who are more
interested In buying the culls than
they are to build up bettor flocks
of poultry. Some of these men also
have poultry remedies and appli-
ances for sale. Where they can
not get the money for the things
they have to sell they persuade
termors to trade tho culls for their
goods. Then they begin culling tho
flocks in order to make tho farmers
believe they have a large number of'
hens that should bo discarded.
"It might be well for you to bo
on tho lookout for these parties and
If you find them at work In your
county to take such means as seem
desirable to get right information to
farmers for their own protection."
W. A. CONNER
Director.
Beaver's trio lost to Butfulo de-
baters Friday night when they met
at the Christian church here to de-
bate the question "Resolved That
the Policy of tho Open Shop should
be adopted In the United States."
William Culwell Floyd Hancock and
John Leonard spoke for Beaver and
upheld tho affirmative. Misses
Evelyn DeWter and Vera Anderson
and Kenneth Hers took the negative
for Buffalo. Tho Judges wero Prof.
E. A. Herod of Alva; C. D.. Davis
of Guymon and Mr. Clark 'of Still-
water. Their decision was two for
the negative and one for the af-
firmative. Miss Ruth Pickens
teacher accompanied the Buffalo
team.
When tho decision of tho judges
was announced It was plain to see
that the crowd was keenly disap-
pointed for it looked like Beaver's
debaters had won without a ques-
tion however. It must bo remem-
bered that tho audience was made
up of Beaver folk for tho most pert
and naturally the effort of our
young pepole would be best received
by them. We are Inclined to think
that the Judges wero fair and it
must have been our great desire for
"our boys" to win that mado every-
body feel they surely would and
accounts for our not being able yet
to understand how they lost any-
way the two young ladles and the
young man from Buffalo wero
charming and wo congratulate them.
They realized that they took the vic
tory rrom a mighty capable trio of
speakers which makes It all the
more Appreciated and they received
the honor creditably. Beaver's
team accepted their defeat with truo
sportmanshlp. There wore no "sore
spots." They warmly congratulated
their "worthy opponents" and wo
are trusting that when "Greek
meets Greek" In the next event that
Buffalo will come out victorious.
THE MOTHERS' CLUB
The Mothers' Club met In regular
session at the grade school building
last Friday afternoon at which time
the following splendid program was
rendered Mrs. H. B. Brldgewater

port that the entire $100 fund
pledged toward the flooring of the
pavilion had been raised.
The following delegates were then
elected to represent the club at the
District Convention to be held at
Weatherford on April nth 12th

ANNUAL SCHOOL ELECTION .
WELL ATTENDED
If
I
Tho Annual School Election held
at the Grade School Building Tues-
day afternoon was well attended
nnd much Interest manifested.
Tho main business disposed of
was tho reelection of O. F. Pruett
as clerk of the School Board.
A motion to vote a 15 mill lovy
was made and seconded and tho bal-
lot .was forty-one to one in favor
of the motion.
A motion was madoTind seconded
to consolidate with District 126 bet
tor Known as tho Brown District
west of Btavor who wish to como j
mm mis district ino motion was
carried by a unanimous vote nnd
tho school board was Instructed toK
mite me ulcus necessary ior consoli
dation. '
The general sentiment of the peo
ple was an expression of gratitude
towards the present School Board.
for tho efficient business-like com
petent way in which they have
handled the affairs of the school
this year; although Beaver has been
in serious financial straits this board
has succeeded In ironing out most
of the wrinkles and presenting a
solution to the problem for next
year.
This first step towards consolida
tion Is an Indication of progress.
A motor bus will bo put on for the
benefit of the district Just enter-
ing nnd every needle of the com-
pass seems to bo pointing toward
bettor schools for Beaver not only
next year but for the years to
come.
Thcro Is no reason why Beaver
cannot have as tine a Bcliool as our
Ideal School namely tho 'Rural
Consolidated School at Holcomb.
Kansas a description of which was
given in tills paper some time
ago.
In making our schools grow we
make our business grow nnd In mak-
ing our buslnes grow we make our
town grow by leaps and bounds!
Just remember then:
lta Yon
If you want to go to the kind of! a
school
Like tho kind of a school you like
You needn't slip your clothes In a
grip
And start on a long long hike
You'll only find what you left be-
hind There's nothing that's really new .
It's a knock at yourself when you
knock your school
It Isn't the school Its You.
Good schools are not nlade by men
afraid
Lest somebody else gets ahead
When everyone works and1 nobody
shirks
You can raise a school from the
dead.
And If while you make your person-
al stake
Your nelhbor can make one too
The school will be what you want
to see.
It Isn't tho school Its Y-O-U!
