THE COUNTY FAIR
The Fifty-Sevcnth Annual Exhibit
ton Successful in Its Exhibits 2
and Attendance.

There were three ,rainless days
for the 57th annual Fair of the
Windsor County Agricultural So
ciety--a spell of weather that seemed
to have been especially arranged tor
this weck-and in attendance and
exhibits the managers scored another
of their old time successes. Cool
weather kept no one away and the
program was carried through with
out any interruption.
The attendance and receipts nearly
equalled last years mountaineering
business.
Tuesday morning opened clear and
beautiful and tor the first day there
was an unusually large number Of
visitors and exhibitors moving about
the grounds. The departments til!ec
up fast and by night nearly every
thing was in place-espccially the
merry-go-round and its terrifying
music.
The races, the midway and van
devile entertained the visitors
Wednesday and Thursday and every
department had its attractions. L
was a big crowd on the second day
and the great fall festival brough
much happiness to thousands.

A Bishop on Prohibition.

The Rt. Rev. A. c. A. Hall, Bishop of
Vermont, in recent sermon said:
But the leaven worked from the center
to the circumference. 1t required no adj
ventitious aid. So the influence of
Christianity must come from within. 1t
was useless to attempt to force. This
was illustrated in the folly and mischief
of what is called prohibition, of attempt
ing to make men sober by act Of parlia.
ment, instead of 'cechlng them se'f re-
spect. Prohibition W failure. Pro.
hibition does MOI prohibit, but it does in
duce great many evils which cannot be
regulated. 1t multiplies artificial sins,
and while developing hypocrisy, it
throws a sense of lack of obligation
over the home which is often disastrous.
Il may be!the right and duty Of the state
under certain circumstances to guard
the people against certai, temptations,
but it is no part Of the Christian church
to aid in limitations upon the right Of
the individual. The Christian church
taught that 1t was the duty of the indi-
vidual to subject his lower nature to the
higher, to be a man in fact as we'll as in
name.
