A Successful and Profitable Meeting this
j Year.
The annual fair of Giles county
was, all 10 all, very pleasant and
successful me eting. The weather
was, in the main, all that could be
asked. Itturned little cold Fri
day and light overcoat felt COM
Portable. This was all the better
on the great number of fine horses,
mules, cattle, etc, that was on ex-
hibition. A Ener display in floral
hall was never seen in Pulaski and
the display of ladies, bandiwork,
vegetables. fruits, flowers, etc, was
never equaled. The ladies seemed
to take more pride in the exhibit
than the men. As much stock, and
a great deal of 1t as fine as there is
in this country, was never before
seen at a Giles county fair and sell
dom seen anywhere. Altogethtr It
was happy event and the mana
gers are to be congratulated on
their success.

Robert is a fine specimen of boy
