Short course meeting set at Washington county high school
Washington county will hold a nine oclock meeting at the high school for the short course movement. Officers likely to be elected next year and committees named. Col S W Brookhart said the course should pay out this year with ticket and entertainment revenue and about two hundred dollars expected from the state. A possible Ames experiment station at the county farm may be approved, testing local corn and inviting samples from farmers. A fall county home picnic would host the short course annual meeting. The stock barn session showed near unanimous support for next year with over a hundred season tickets already likely. Mrs Hattie Moore Mitchell of Des Moines lectured at the Graham theatre on Women and the glad hand, praising social harmony and personal magnetism.
