Children , who wishes to participate should and only onK Saturday was the public invited to make entries. •' F.F.A. day found boys from all of the fifteen high schools with vocational agriculture departments in Section VI competing for honors and prize money. Twelve of the thirty-four boys in McHenry department last year had entries and did exceptionally well. Since eleven of these twelve were only freshmen or sophomores last year, they will be heard from for some time to come. In the dairy division, Lloyd' Herndon entered a Guernsey cow, Dave Smith a Holstein cow and bull calf, and Charles Weideman a Holstein heifer. Lloyd deserves everyone's congratulations for owning the grand champion guernsey cow for both the F.F.A. and the 4-H days. Dave Smith did well but was handicapped at this fair by the loss from bloat earlier this summer of the fine Holstein cow he intended to show. Unfortunately, two days prior to the fair, Jim Adams suffered the same kind ofi a loss of an equally fine Ayrshire heifer. Swine Division Ik In the swine division, both Dave and Jim showed Durocs, Bob Comstock, Dick Nowak and Ronald Schmidt showed Berkshires, and Loren Freund showed Yorkshires. Loren had the distinction of showing a boar, a gilt, a barrow and a pen of barrows each of the three days for n blue ribbon in each class each day! His barrow was awarded the grand championship of tfie F.F.A. fair. At the 4-H show he again had the grand champion barrow and also a grand champion pen of barrows. In the open class he was awarded grand champion barrow and grand champion boar. Quite a record for a junior-to-be in high school! Dave Smith was the outstandpion boar and grand champion female honors of the F.F.A. fair. On 4-H day he received grand champion gilt and grand champion litter awards. He received a blue ribbon for each entry each of the three days with but one excepfton-^-his sow received second place at the F.F.A. fair. This was not bad for a confirmed d^iry man J Just Miss Trophy At the F.F.A. fair, a beautiful trophy is offered for a school exhibit made* up of** five animals owned and shown by at least three boys. McHenry's only chance was in swine but they were nosed out by Hebron, who showed five first place animals. McHenry gave them plenty of competition with Dave Smiths first place, grand champion Duroc boar and Duroc gilt; Loren Freund's first place Yorkshire gilt and barrow; and Dick Nowak's second place Berkshire boar. In the poultry division, Jim DeYoung showed White Leghorns, Eugene Hughes a Mediterranian breed and Arnold Thelen showed both White Rocks £nd a Mediterranian breed. Bob Schmelzer showed Broadbrested Bronze turkeys. Arnold Thelen brought home the honors on F.F.A. day by receiving four blue ribbons and one red. He continued at the same pace in the 4-H and open class shows. Bob Schmelzer walked off. with blue ribbons for his pen of turkeys on all three days. Open Class TWo former McHenry 'F.F.A. members were active Saturday in the open class events. Bill Miller showed some fine Hampshire swine for his share of blue ribbons, while in the poultry division, Clarence Thelen joined his younger brother, Arnold, to prove that the Johnsburg Thelens are poultrymen of the first class. Bill Weber, former F.F.A. president now home after having a rood year at the University of Illinois, helped several of his friends show their animals. Jerome Stilling took a blue ribbon on his gilt, another-for hte boar and a red * ribbon for another gilt in the open class with his registered Hereford pigs. Several of the members of the McHenry vocational^ agriculture advisory council wet-e active in the work of the «McHenry count#, fair or, at least, were interested enough to take time to attend. This is one of the important times of the year not only to en- ^oy viewing prize livestock, but also to encourage as many young future farmers as possible to develop a liking for, and pride in, imm mmm Indian Population Increases Indians pre American citizens. Many Indians were granted citizenship long ago through treaties with Indian tribes or by Acts of Congress. To make certain none were left out, Congress passed a special law, the Citizenship Act of 1924, stating that all Indians born in the United States are citizens of our country. Whether or not they live on reservations, they have the vote in every State on the same basis as other people. Contrary to the usual impression, Indians are not dying out. There are notv 400,000 Indians in the United States, compared to the about 250,- 000 around the close of the 19th century. Some 25,000 Indians were in the armed services in the recent World War. Major General Clarence Tinker, who reorganized our air forces after the attack at Pearl Harbor, was an Osage Indian.
