Happiest Girl Living
When the tug drew alongside
of the Berengaria just before noon
and the mother hurried across the
gang plank to meet her daughter,
the young queen of the channel
declared herself the "happiest girl
in the world today to have reach
ed home again."
Sirens shrieked, bands played
and crowds cheered as the harbor
was entered.
"Gee, it's good to have you again
Mom don't go," she cried as with
wet eyes she k issed heis mother.
Together they faced the Impatient
battery of cameras.
Miss Ederle, a "water baby"
tc her mother 19 years ago when
she cried at being lifted out of
her little tiny bath tub. today was
a very smartfy clad, good looking
young mermaid.
A glance would scarce serve to
stamp her as an athlete of such
prowess as to defeat channel
waters and men's records also
Her sturdy but not over-large fig
ure was clad in a simple blue
serge suit, her attractive oval face
framed in an orchid colored felt
hat becoming to her face and skin,
bobbed brown hair and blue eyes.
She wore gray stockings and shoes
and a painted pastel scarf and car
ried a modish French novelty doll
udder her arm. "Pop" Ederle,
plump and smiling, wore a light
gray suit.
"I was only interested in swim
ming while I was abroad, up to
the time I made the swim," Miss
Ederle told half a hundred report
ers who closed in around her to
8k questions about her trip. "I
had no time for shopping or sight
seeing or anything. While I was
swimming the channel I was sure
1 would succeed. After the flrst
hour it was rough the whole way.
but I never wanted to come out
of the water for a moment, and I
felt fine when I got up on the
beach. '
"The criticism that two tugs
helped me in the swim by pro
tecting me is absurd, and its mak
er has apologized to me. When
the two tugs were on either side
of me I could do nothing, as 1
got the wash from beth, bo I had
to, ask them to get in single file.

(By A.P.) The deaths of Russell

attorney became identified when
he announced that he had been
asked to act as go-between for as
serted kidnapers of the evangelist
to collect a 925,000 ransom, was
referred to only once during the

JERSEYS WILL VIE A
FOR FAIR PRIZES
Originator of the "County
' Herd Prize" to Be State ,
: Fair Judge
With announcement that E. B.
Fltts will judge Jerseys at the
Oregon state fair this -year there
is prospect ht the largest Jersey
show in the history of the annual
event. . Professor Fitts, who for
the past four years has been dairy.
expert at the Pennsylvania state
college, was proir to that time
with -the Oregon Agricultural col
lege for a number of years. He
specialized in dairy .work.
While an all around judge and
expert, on dairy cattle breeds he
was recognized as a warm friend
and admirer of the Jerseys and
through his influence a number
of Oregon Jersey bulls and some
Jersey females have gone to Penn
sylvania breeders.
Professor Fitts was the origi
nator of the "county herd prize"
at the. state .fair. This is a prize
for a herd of 10 animals from a
county, the animals to be two
bulls, one over two years old. one
under two years ,one cow five
years or over, one four year old
cow,- one three year old, one two
year old, a senior yearling, a jun
ior yearling heifer and a senior
and junior calf. .
The prixes were three in num
ber, $75, $50 and $25, and go t4
the county Jersey club. They
cannot be awarded to any of the
individuals whose animals make
up the county herd, but the coun
ty club has the power to Use the
money toward defraying the ex
penses of shipping the animals or
for any other purpose. Some of
the clubs have used it in the
boys and girls club work. No ont
breeder is allowed to exhibit more
than three animals in a county
herd, the idea being to make the
herd truly representative of the
county from which it comes.
When it was learned that Pro
fessor li'itts was to be judge D. O
Woodworth of Albany, president
of the State Jersey club and oth
ers decided to give him a rousing
reception, with a big show of Jer
seys and especially give him a real
Job of . placing the county herds.
Ordinarily, while Jerseys show
more animals than any other
breed of cattle three herds are as
J many as have been shown. This
vear it has been likely that at
least six and perhaps eight county
herds will be brought to the fair.
When all are lined up in competi
tion they will make a most spec
tacular show.
In view of the probability of a
numbtr of herds being shown and
in appreciation of the interest be
ing taken in this class by the state
Jersey club, the state fair board,
at its meeting here August 16,
voted to award a prize of $20 to
each county dairy herd that, does
not win one of the three prizes.
and the judges will -place the
herds just as if the amount were
graduated. Holsteins and Guern
seys also make strong shows at
the fair and. they will strive to
not be behind in the matter of a
fine showing for their breeds.
When a county herd is shipped
from any county it is evident that
at least a sufficient number of
cattle to fill the car will be sent
fpr the freight charge will be the
same. The county herds are not
judged until all other judging is
done, when- the best in their class
es from each county are brought
into herd competition. The more
cattle from any county the bet
ter opportunity to select the high
class entries.
So it is safe to predict, if only
six counties show,, that not less
than 20 animals will be shown
from any county. But the Jersey
show last year was almost 200,.
with only three county herds. The
counties of Marion. Polk and
ClaQiamas,, all close by. have
breeders who bring as many as 20
or more in one string.
If six county herds are shown It
was predicted that the Jersey
rtow would reach S00 entries and
be much larger than ever before
Breeders already are being urged
to get their herds ready.
Professor Fitts will judge
Guernseys as well as Jerseys. Oth
er judges who win officiate at
the state fair are John B. Irwin.
Minneapolis, Holsteins and Ayr-
shires, and Frank Brown of Carl
ton. Shorthorns and Herefords
Mr. Broan has officiated at the
