The Cleveland County Poultry
Show, which was held in the Opera
House building, Thursday, Fri-
day and Saturday of last week was
a grand success. Secretary B. 1'.
Bartholomew, who is in every sense
a chicken fancier, thoroughly dem-
onstrated his ability for conduct-
ing a poultry show that attracted
statewide attention.
There were 58 coops of f ine spec
iinens of thoroughbred birds, many
of them coming from other conn
ties in the state. A great many of
the prize winninnog es were sold
during the show and shipped to
various points in the state, which
is quite an advertisement for our
poultry raisers.
The association secured the ser-
vices of Geo. W. Winans, the
well known chicken expert of
Oklahoma City, as judge, and he,
awarded the following premiums!

enroll a great many children as clul
members; first, because we want
only workers; second, because we
do not have the time nor the funds
to care for a list of inactive club
members; third, bceause a teacher
cannot successfully manage a club
in which there are many inactive
members.
Teachers should visit all club
members at work if possible, and
should hold at least one or two
field meetings during the season.
eacliers should not undertake
to oaganize clubs unless there is
some one in the school district who
will look after the club work dur-
ing the vacation period because it
is at this time that the dub mem-
bers need most help and eucouiau'
ment.
Teachers should address all com-
munications to Boys' and Girls
