1 Football lovers of Texas will
I have opportunity to see two of
I the Southwest" greatest grid-
iron conflicts this season at the
Texas Cotton Palace exposition.
Dates of the big show this year
are November 9 to 18th, inclu-
sive. The opening date is later
than usual and the chief rea-
son for pushing the opening in-
to the fall was to schedule these
I two games as exposition attrac-
WOMEN'S CARE FIRST

Work Announced for Ex-
position.
Farm women will have head-
quarters at which they can feel
entirely at home in the Texas
Cotton Palace Exposition this
year more than they ever have
had before.
Dates of the big show are
November 9 to 18, inclusive, and
when the gates swing open there
will be one entire building de-
voted to home demonstration
clubs and community exhibits.
It will be known as the home
demonstr in building and is
the forme* iloral building on
the east side of the grounds as
one enters. Canned goods, sew-
ing work, interior decoration
and garden projects of McLen-
nan county women and girls
will be on display, while com-
munity exhibits from Tarrant,
Hill, Comanche, Bosque, Falls,
Navarro and other countics of
the state will draw hundreds of
interested groups from several
different localities in those coun-
ties.
A lounging room for women
with chairs where they can rest
after examining the attractions
of the entire exposition will be
A welcome innovation.

The first game is to be be-
tween Texas University and
Baylor University teams on the
Cotton Palace field Nov. 10, on
Saturday following the fair's
formal opening Friday night. In
i connection with this game, Bay-
j lor is to have home-coming day
tas well, which will attract a
i large number of ex-students and j
graduates to the campus and to 1
the Cotton Palace. The Waco j
Baylor club has charge of this
home-coming. (

George H. Belew, business

ets for these gridiron classics,

mands that are already coming

This year's poultry show at
the Texas Cotton Palace Expo-
sition in Waco, November 9 to
IS, inclusive, is attracting more
interest than any held in pre-
vious years, says John K.
Strecker, who is in charge. Con-
sidering the fact that last year's
show was one of the most not-
able held in the Southwest anti-
cipations for a first class exhibit
this year are justified.
Entries of the American Ban-
tam Association, the Southwest-
ern Bantam Association, the
Texas Silver Wyandotte Club,
and two which were in the show
last year: the Texas Branch c*
the American Cornish Club and
the Texas White Plymouth Rock-
Club, are announcsd.
On account of the dates of
the Cotton Palace, Nov. 9-18 at
oh2 time when poultry is in the
b3st show condition, and the
fact that the exhibit will last
only 10 instead of 16 days, en-
tries will be greatly increased.
Strecker believes. Also, the
Cotton Palace poultry show will
icllow the Dallas and the
Shreveport fairs without over-
lapping their dates as formerly.
Jpecial interest is being shown
by local fanciers and breeders of
farcy poultry throughout Cen-
tral Texas and the state. Many
of the national specialty clubs,
including the National White
Holland Turkey club, National
White Leghorn club, National
White Wyandotte club, and oth-
ers ,are ottering special ribbons
for Cotton Palace winners.
Judges will be C. P. Van Win-
kle, editor of Poultry News, Dal-
las ,and Walter Burton, super-
intendent of the poultry depart-
ment of the Texas State Fair,
at Dallas.,

Chevrolet Building
Storage Warehouses
The parts and service division of
Chevrolet Motor Company, for the
purpose of bringing the consumer
closer to the points of distribution,
has been since the first of the year
quietly carrying on a building pro-
gram amounting to hundreds of
thousands of dollars. This has added
to the company's numeroua plants
five zone warehouses, now in use, and
calls for construction of three more
before January 1. In addition, ma-
jor supply depots in Atlanta and Kan-
sas City have been built and put into
operation this year.
Los Angeles, Houston, Omaha,
Philadelphia and Cleveland are the
centers which have seen warehouaes
already built and opened for use.
Work is to begin this fall on others in
New Orleans, Fargo and Indianapolis.
The New Orleans warehouse is sched-
uled to open in November, the Fargo
warehouse in December and the In-
dianapolis warehouse in January.
J. P. Little, manager of the parts
and service division, in a statement
issued last week pointed out that the
1928 building program when complet-
ed will increase the storage facilities
of his division by 30 per cent. It will
mean, he said, an addition of 210,000
additional feet of floor space.
"Chevrolet parts warehouses and
major supply depots constitute an ad-
ded service that the company offers
in order that every authorised serv-
ice station and repair depot will have
genuine Chevrolet parts available
promptly for Chevrolet owners," Mr.
Little said.
The warehouses and depots carry
several hundreds of thousands of dol-
lars worth of atock, and represent,
therefore, a very important factor in
the commercial life of the communi-
ties in which they are located, Mr Lit-
tle said.
Aside from the building activity,
the divisional program for 1928, as
outlined by Mr. Little, is also con-
cerned with Boston and Denver, cities
where now existent warehouses will
be evacuated this fall for new quar-
ters because present facilities have
proven inadequate. Thus before the
year closes the parts and service di-
vision will have new warehouses in
each of ten cities.
In every instance between 5,000
und 6,000 square feet of space has
been set aside in these warehouses for
use of the zone sales schools. The
warehouses also house the offices of
the zones sales managers and their
taffs. All of the new buildings have
been built according to plans and spe-
cifications of Chevrolet Motor Com-
pany.
