FOSS, LEADER STAFF CARTOONIST MR PSRN SN S s > \\\ N - aawm The amateur department is still “going strong.” Every boy and girl that has a chance to see the Leader, after Dad, Mother and the big brothers get through with it, are all interested in this department. Every one of you should |- be. This is YOUR section of the Leader. The cartoon above is by Fred L. Snowball, Norris, Mont. The farmer, as pictured-by Snowball, has a dandy plan and he wants the consumer to know all about it. The plan is simply this: By eliminating the unnecessary middleman the farmer can place his produce directly into the hands of the consumer, with a saving to both. The little gang at the farmer’s feet simply will not agree to- this. See the awful fuss his plan has kicked up. : : I am going to ask you to sit down and put that idea you have on paper, In other words draw a cartoon and send it in. Take plenty of time and do it carefully. A cartoon, in order to win a prize, must be a “bear.” The competi- _ tion is pretty keen. -And remember, use white paper and black ink. I send a i dollar to each boy or girl whose cartoon is printed. J. E. Sullivan, Lake Williams, N. D.; Agnes Olson, Volga, S. Agzms, Fargo, . A. Lundgren, Minneota, Minn.; D.; F. M.
