In conclusion, we would simply add, tha
the fair was, in all respects. decided SUI
cess, one otswhich every citizen of Drive
should feel proud. Those parties who, b
their apathy and disposition to throw col
water on every project tending to advsnc
the interests of their town, should take
lesson by it, as it shows that as indvid,
ais their opposition alnmounted to naugh
