THE VALLEY FAIR.

The managers of the Valley fair have al
ready received assurances from leading ex-
hibitors which warrant them in making the
confident announcement that this year S
exhibition, which takes place Sept. %
and %, will be the equal of any previous
one, and will excel all others in many re-
spects. The display of farm products and
cattle will undoubtedly be the best seen in
New England this year. The horse show
will be fully up to the Valley fair standard,
and the racing as spirited as has been seen
on any Vermont track. The characteristic
feature of this fair, the cavalcade on the
second morning, will be finer than ever,
while the balloon ascension will be an at
traction not before offered.
Information will be in hand next week
for a detailed announcement in all depart
ments.

A CITIZENS, MEETING
To Be Held Next Monday Night TO Take
Action in Reference to the Columbus
DIV CelehrntlOn.


Action i'm Reference TO the Columbus
Day Celebration.
A meeting of the people of Brattleboro
is called for next Monday evening. Sept.
10, at the.town hall, at $780, to see what
action will be taken in cooperation with
the public school celebration on Columbus
day. Oct. u. The women are especially
invited, and the attendance of all patriotic
and pubic-spirited people is earnestly
hoped for. The American people as a
whole have become thoroughly interested
in the significance of this 400th anniversa-
ry, and one reason is the public school
leadership. As soon as this leadership was
proposed the national educational associa-
ton adopted it and appointed all the state
superintendent a committee to carry it
out, with a special committee, with head
quarters at the Youths Companion office,
Boston, to push the movement and to pre-
pare a uniform official program for use in
every locality. Commander-in-C Chief Palm
er has issued general orders that all the
Grand Army posts in the country link
themselves with the schools in a grand
patriotic, bipartisan demonstration; while
Congress recognized the movement by di-
recting the President to proclaim Oct. Fl a
national holiday. The proclamation is
sued by the President gave emphatic &C
cent to the school idea, and recommended
that the people everywhere make it the
centre of the local Observances.
To secure uniformity in the character of
the school celebrations the executive com
mittee having the project in charge have
prepared program for general publica-
ton According to this the schools every
where are to assemble at the usual hour
on the morning of Oct. 81. A detail of
veterans is expected to arrive soon after,
when all will repair to the yard. The
exercises will begin with reading of the
proclamation. Then the flag will be
raised by the veterans, and saluted by all
the pupils in a brief exercise, terminating
in the song, "My country, tits of thee.
After divine acknowledgements, 1.-The
song of Columbus day." an original hymn
for the occasion and set to the old tune OF
Lyons" will be sung by all. Following
will be a defamation of the address fol-
| Columbus day, and reading of the ode
for Columbus day, both original produc-
| tions for the occasion. Opportunity will
then be given for whatever additional feat
ures local enterprise may PROVIDE and the
morning observance will end with short
addresses by citizens and national songs.
For the afternoon public school review
is suggested by the committee, or, if there
| is a civic parade, ii is urged that the schools
| escorted by the veterans, be made the
| prominent feature. In the mass meeting
of citizens, with which many places vii
conclude the day, is proposed that among
the speeches ample recognition be given tC
