a careful study of the lives OF our great men
will show that most of them were born and
bred in the country-boYs whose early man
hood had touched the soul and drawn health
and strength and inspiration from the forces

the present tendency continued until a ma
jority of our people are inhabitants of the
great cities? If this tendency must prevail,

that is by bringing the city and country into
closer bonds of sympathy, and this brings Inc
to the chief significance of this fair. This
great ard growing City of the Lake has
| opened her arms to the country, and
annually invites the people who till our
| fields, dig in our mines and work in the
country shops to come among you and bring
with them the fruits OF the land and pro-
ducts Of their skill. In return you show
them the accumulation of city industry
! This interchange is beneficial to both, and
| let me add, especially advantageous to resi-
dents of the city. | am sure that the many
leaders of the commerce and trade of Cleye
| land who were reared in the country are in-
vigorated by the reminder of their youth
which this fair gives them. They remember
s the rock from which they were hewp,
the soil on which they grew, and are better
and stronger for the remembrances. In this
fair the city and the country shake hands in
renewed friendship and recognize anew their
dependence upon each other.
