Centre County Boys and Girls Place Well at Farm Products Show. Centre county was well represented at the State farm products show, in Harrisburg, last week. Approximate- ly one hundred and fifty farmers and members of their families were in at- tendance, and all agreed that it was by far the largest and best show ever held. i One of the main features was the boys and girls 4H club exhibits of baby beeves, lambs and dairy calves. Nine boys and girls out of the fifteen in the Centre county lamb feeding club exhibited their lambs in the State-wide contest. In face of keen competition Centre county lambs placed as follows, according to breeds: Southdowns—1st, Jane Vial, State College; 2nd, Donald Campbell, Penn- sylvania Furnace; 3rd, Alice Foust, Centre Hall; 4th, Ray Homan, State College. ; itr : _Hampshires—1st., Clarence Hoy, Bellefonte; 2nd., Joseph Whiting, Sus- quehanna county; 3rd., James Camp- bell, Pennsylvania . Furnace; 4th., Floyd Weight, Bellefonte; 5th, Charles Harter, Nittany. In addition to the above Fred Lose, Centre Hall, won second in the Shrop- shire class in competition with sev- eral pens from Washington county. The pen of Southdowns exhibited by Jane Vial, of State College, also won reserve grand champion. The Centre county club exhibits won $118.00 in prize money. ' The lambs were sold by pens at auction after they were judged for an aver- age of 16.3 eents per pound." The Centre county lambs averaged 16.6 per pound. The six pens that were not taken to Harrisburg sold loeally for 114 cents a pound. The lambs made an average gain of approximately 30 pounds apiece, and were bought at the start of the feeding period for 12 cents a’ pound, thus making a nice profit to the members of the club. H.

Modiste Tuesday and Wednesday evenings, February 14th and 15th. It is very important that the play be given during the week’ of the 12th in order to avoid the Lenten season and also the payment of extra royalty charges. Never has the glee club done finer work than it is doing now. It is al- most unbelievable that a group of such very young folks can so admir- ably handle the very difficult and mar- velously beautiful music of Victor Herbert's “Mlle. Modiste.” Without any hesitation or feeling about for tones, the opening chorus of twenty voices modulates from one key to an- other in a manner that would do cred- it to an adult group of trained sing- ers and those who have listened in on rehearsals have remarked on the beautiful work done by the “shop girls.” This same chorus in Act II is the finest dancing chorus the High school has ever trained and the public will, after seeing them perform in the “Glow-Worm” specialty, endorse the statement, while the principals are finer than ever. SH Costumes, made in the school, of gold and silver cloth and other ex- pensive materials direct from a well- known textile corporation on Broad- way, together with rented costumes from Boston, will lend color to the production. : “The soldier girls and officers con- stitute another spectacular and beau- tiful chorus, and Act II opens with a “sparkle” of sixty-five colorful and radiant costumes. Never has the club dressed a show as gorgeously as this one is being dressed. i Beautiful specialties by little folks as pansies, powder puffs and butter- flies, are interpolated and are high spots in the show. “Farina” of the Hal Roach gang plays a “return en- gagement” and the “Duncan Sisters” —Topsy and Eva, will also be there. These are just a few of the fine things promised the public in the High school production of Victor Her- bert’s “Mlle. Modiste.” Although expenses on the show are higher than on any previous offering, the price of 75 cents will continue to be the cost of High school produc- tions. A matinee for children only will be given on the first day at a special reduced price. The exact date of the show will be announced next week and tickets will be on sale about February 81d... 00 LUDNERORS Bellefonte D. A. R.
