offer variety of fancy and useful arti-
cles during the fair, the proceeds of
which are to go to help swell the gener-
GUS amount hoped for by this gathering
and festivities. The admission price
will be the usual sum although worth
more than formerly because of the in.
creased attractions, and cordial invita-
ton is extended to all to participate.
There will be competition for hand
some gold watch. Already three and
possibly four will enter for the prize.
This elegant watch will be awarded to
the young lady who shall secure the

Come the first night and retain your
