Much satisfaction has been expressed in the Ellesmere district at the decision of the Lincoln College Board of Governors to award the Bledisloe Medal to Mr H. J. Andrew, of Maheno, North Otago. The award is made annually to former Students of the college for noted service to the farming community. A son of the late Mr W. B. Andrew, Mr Henry Andrew spent the early part of his life at Southbridge and attended the school there. He has been for a number of years one of the leading stud sheep breeders and judges in the Dominion and has achieved a great deal of success as an exhibitor at the principal shows. Those who know Mr Andrew agree that the honour conferred upon him by the College Board is well deserved,
