This very attractive exhibit won a lot of praise and appreciative com-- comments at the fair. It constituted the only exhibit-- in the Educational building. The girls have all shown a fine interest in their clubs this year, so that the first year in this work must be called an unqualified success. Next year's work should be better with a large r membership in the clubs.. * Demonstration teams from each club met at the Aurora fair in a contest to determine which team should repre-- sent the county at the State Fair Girls Demonstration Contest. The Antioch team consisting of Catherine Minto and Mary Herman won this contest and were given a free trip to the state fair, where they competed with other teams in putting on demonstrations. The boys'* clubs showed six dairy heifer calves af the county fair, three omre than were shown at Aurora. The boys who showed were George Shel-- lenberger, Joe Rockenbach, John Schroeder, Arthur Dillon, Albert Her-- man and Philip Simpson. Joe Rock-- enbach won first in the Holstein class and Albert Herman first in the Guera-- sey class. It is expected that a county club worker will soon be hired. The Farm Bureau Committee has been carefully considering the matter and has been at work raising the funds all summer.
