This ts planned so that the mem- bers can witness the opening of bids and awarding of the contract by the board of directors for the construction of 239 miles of addi- tional R.E.A. lines. It is hop.~d that construction will start the lat- ter part of March or the first part of April. The extension from near the Harry ~Iorn farm, northwest of Mount Vernon, into Bertram town- ship and thence into Franklin is a part of this "C" section The consulting engineer, K. P. Brown of Des Moines, is expected to attend the annual 'meeting. Ap- pearing on the program will be a representative of the R.E.A. in be five games thc first round on Wednesday; four games the second round on Thursday; the semi-final on Friday night. The consolation and championship games are slat- ed for Saturday night Pre-tournament favorites are Center Point, Springville and Viola, but in past years the favorites have fallen by the way-side and a dark horse carried off championship honors. The Mount Vernon high school plays Springville on Wednesday, Febrnary 5 at 6:30 p.m. Toddviile is the defending cham- pions. John Beck of Cedar Rap- ids, and George Case of Clarence are the officials Archery Expert Speaks To Lions Club Washington, D.C. and Mr. Brown. Mr. Fred M. Enders, of Cedar t" Lunch.willbe served atnoon by l Rapids, gave a very interesting talk ne bauleS l-regressive t;XOD OI ]on archery to the local Lmns club ~arion township, and special an-Ist their regular Tuesday evening t~rtmnment will be presented our I z -, meeting. Mr. Enders was assisted ping the noon hour, according to in an actual demonstration by Rus- R. D. Palmer, superintendent. The i sell Graham, state champion arch- cooperative has bad an unusuallY[er, and Don Seegcrt, president of successful year and a good crowd the Cedar Ranids archer,* club of members is expected to heari After Mr. Enders' talk on the the annum report whicn will be of " ',history and development of arch- interest, cry, all three of them participated The request for a fourth or "D" section allotment is in Washing- iron, D.C. now for examination by !the R.E.A.'s application and loan section. The lines in this section are mostly short extensions off the l existing lines in Linn and north '~half of Johnson counties There will be 77 miles of primary line constructed to serve 173 signed ap- [ plicants in Linn and 49 miles to serve 110 applicants in Johnson county. The association now has over 465 !miles of line in operation serving '1105 members. There are still a number of potential members along these lines, ~,ho are rapidly com- ing on. The addition of the "C" and "D" sections will give the as- sociation over 830 miles of line serving 2,000 mere,bars. To handle the increasin.g load and the expected new lines, a sub- station is being built by the R.E.A. force north of Swisher w~ich will receive its power from the Iowa Electric IAght and Power company. Glenn Stoner of Mount Vernon is president of the Linn R.E.A. Cooperative Association. Mr. and Mrs. Alvin Butler spent lmst Sunday in the DeI~ncy Butler home in Viola. in some target shooting. While it is difficult to do accurate shooting at close range, their shooting was remarkably accurate. They were able to ,break toy balloons with their arrows at 30 feet away. An interesting exhibit of differ- ent types of bows and arrows was shown, representing the arrows used for different purposes such as hunting and target shooting. Great emphasis is placed on match- ing the arrows, as it is essential that they be of the same weight in order that the archer may get a uniform drop on the shot. Bows also are designed to be used only by one person usually, so the pounds of pull required on the string, which is made of linen, varies with the person who is using it. The South Seas When Balboa discovered the Pa clflc ocean he called it the South sea. The name still sticks to the southern part of It, sea being made plural. Magellan called it the Pa- cific ocean, because he found it so peaceful after his ~assage through the straits which now bear his name. These straits, by the way. are 309 miles long.

Articles In Rotarian Magazine Reviewed Three articles in the January Rotarian were reviewed .briefly by speakers at the Rotary club meet- ing on Tuesday evening. Bomb Co- croft traced the improvement in gasoline which may make possible airplane speeds of 600 to 700 miles an hour in reviewing "Faster Than Bullets." The catalytic polymeriza- tion process which produces high octane rating gases was briefly ex- plained. John Klimo checked ,Mount Ver- non with the ten points which make a good town, in reviewing "What Makes a Good Town?" F. G. Brooks spoke on "My 'Ten Bests' for 1940" by William Lyon Phelps, a regular Rotarian contributor who selected the ten best nov, non-fie,ion, murder thrillers, thea- tre and motion pictures of 1940. Mr. Brooks mentioned that The Rotarian receives the second high- est rate from the Readers Digest for articles taken from it for us in the Digest. Ehner Bergmann planned the program. The annual oyster dinner will be held in the Methodist church on next Tuesday evening John Klimo is chairman of the committee. The oysters have been ordered from the usual place at Chincoteague, on the east coast of ,Maryland. Turn to pag~e 7 for the Classified Ad ~ection. THE ROAD TO RESULTS It's an easy road to follow.

Dial 2431 Thursday, Janus Too Late To Out of 100 cases 82 of the mates[ chosen by Cornellians have had college training. And 62% of Cor- nellians marry college graduates, women chosing non-college train- ed husbands more often than the men choose non-college trained wives. Bringing the situation beneath the microscope for closer observa- tion it is found that among the 620 students attending Cornell during the 1939-40 period there have been, since June 14 marriages involving 19 students of last year. Of the 345 marriages listed in the Alumni-Sociological survey, only 9 divorces were reported. One or more children bless 82% of the marriages, with the most popular sized family composed of two chil- dren, and ~bout 34% of the familes having over 3 children. So, bachelors--beware; women-- prepare; and men--have care, for our chances of getting "snagged" are good and according to Editor Gray and his survey, your chances of happiness are better.

True, advertising is part of the manufacturer's and merchant's cost of doing business, all of which must be covered in the price of his goods if he is to s~ay in business. But advertising helps boost sales and production. Bigger vol- ume cuts cost per unit made and sold. To meet competition the saving is passed on to the public in the form of a lower price. Think of the prices of radios, mechanical refrigerators and heating appliances, automobiles, light bulbs and other products when first introduced and sold in small volume. Compare with their prices today, after advertising won them enormous acceptance! Successful advertising decrease the price of goods.
