Polk Farmers
Dinner Guests
Dallas There Is every indication
that the Chamber of Commerce
banquet room will be Jammed to
capacity Thursday night when the
members of the Dallas-Independence
and Monmouth Chambers play
host to farmers from all parts of
Polk county.
An ntr of secrecy Is still being
maintained by the committee rela
tive to the program they have pre
pared for the occasion and the only
thing they have made public, other
than the fact that the demand for
tickets has been heavy, Is the name
of the speaker.
Dean U. G. Dubach of the Ore
gon State college and staff Is well
known in Polk county and the fact
that he. with a wide knowledge of
the Orient, as the speaker, Is suf
ficlent in Itself to attract a crowd.
Another Item of note is the fact
that, while the merchants are the
hosts, one or two of the guests are
providing the main course. Several
of Polk county's leading sheep men
have donated lambs to grace the
banquet table, thereby fulfilling a
promise they made in the spring
that when the merchant - farmer
dinner was held In the fall they
would furnish the meat. The time
for the dinner Is 1:00 p.m.
