Another annual meeting Of the Gem
tTal Fair and Livestock Association Is
= thing OF the past. It was held on
"Wednesday, Thursday and Friday
The weather was ideal and the atten-
dance met the expectation OF the.
management. Large crowds attend
ed every day. The exhibits were
first class and prove the value Of the
Fair. Some excellent specimens OF
cattle, mules and horses were on dis
play. The poultry specimens were
quite good. In the ladies department
the displays were numerous and very
creditable.. Mrs. s. A. Morrison de-
serves. especial mention for the success
which attended this part OF the Fair.
She was secretary, but owing to the
illness OF Mrs. J. w. Buchanan, who
was chairman, she filled both capaci-
ties. She was ably assisted by num-
Der of other ladies. The department.
of races receives attention in another
column. -
To the efforts Of a few men princi-
pally, is due the success Of the Fair.
President III. B. Barbee was indefatf-
gable in bis work and filed his place
admirably. He never Jagged in en-
ergy nor wavered. in interest, and to
his direction is due large measure OF
the success. Secretary w. III. HofIa
filed his place most efficiently and ac-
ceptably. He is born promoter, and
when he gets behind anything it must
move. He kept keen eye open at all
times for the success Of the occasion
and proved the right man for the
Treasurer S., A. Morrison looked
after the financial end, and of course
that was In competent hands. A
number of other citizens lent their
time and energy towards making the
exhibition success. -.
In next week s issue will appear a
complete list OF the premiums award
ed. It was impossible to get it for
this issue. -. a.. ..%s.. 80

CITIES HARD TO KILL.
what Rome. Parts, Constantinop1s
and London Have Suffered.


1t Is difficult thing to kill a city.
and there are some well known places
that have SO much vitality that they
will survive any number of disasters.
Take Rome as a first example. No
fewer than ten times has she been
swept by pestilence. She has been
burned twice and starved out on six
occasions. Seven times she has been
besicged or bombarded. But she still
llourishes. Perhaps that is why she is
called the Eternal City.
Paris has had eight sieges, ten fam
ines. two plaques and one fire which
devastated 4. We make no reference
TO the number of revolutions, as they
are too numerous to mention. But Par
is still flourishes.
Constantinople has been burned out
nine times and has suffered from four
plaques and five sieges. There are
some people who think that many Of
the sutans have been as bad for the
city as any pestilence. And yet she
goes on.
Lastly there is the English metropo-
IFS. London began as kind of mound
in swamp. In her early history she
was sacked. burned and all her inhab-
itants butchered. She has been deci-
mated by plague five times, exclusive
Of typhus, cholera and such maladies
She has been more or less burned sew
en- times. She is thriving in spite OF all.

The Japanese have the most perfect
kindergarten system in the world. In
fact. they originated this method of in.
structing by entertainment instead Of
by punishment. Their play apparatus
for such purposes is elaborate, but all
OF it is adapted to the infant mind,
which it is designed at once to amuse
and TO inform. The little ones of Japan
even become somewhat interested in
mathematics by seeing and feeling
what n pretty thing a cone, a sphere or
a cylinder is when cut out of wood
with a lathe. They make outlines OF
solid figures out of straw. with green
peas to hold the joints together, and
for the instruction of the blind fat
blocks are provided, with the Japanese
characters raised upon them.-Pear-
