Come to the Grenada Fair.

We believe no town In in the State
enjoys an annual event OF more gener-
al interest than the Grenada Central
Fair. Not only is this enterprise full
of interest to our community, but at
tracts the attention OF large part of
the State. The Fair district embrace
es the counties of Grenada, Carroll,
Yalobusha, Leflore, Tallahatchie, Cal
houn, Webster and Choctaw. And in
these counties are some of Mississip-
pi's finest live stock and agricultural
products.
The live stock exhibit will consist of
native and blooded horses, saddle and
harness stations. brood mares, fine
mule and horse colts. Some excellent
specimens of cattle representing all inn
proved breeds will be shown. An in
portant feature of the occasion will be
the field races. Trotting, pacing aud
running races will be for one-quarter,
one-half and mile dashes. An item
of unusual attraction will be the five
mile race between spendid autmobiles.
There are many other interesting
features of the Fair. In fact, the Fair
Association has omitted nothing that
would help toward making the enter
prise complete success. The occa-
Sion is a source of innocent amusement
and recreation, and encourages i'm
provement in our varied lines of in
dustry. Remember the Fair c0mmen-
ces October 6, and lasts three days
It promises to be a greater success
than ever before.

selfish ones who always preferred
others before herself, and was never
so happy as when administering to
the comfort and happiness of others.
Always leaving self out of considera-
tion, and in honor prefering others,
as every one who knows her testifies.
And one has only to see the beautiful
home, which the united efforts of
herself and her husband have brought
out of the wilderness, to know that
her work was we'll done, and in which
she has left lasting monument to
her memory. May others see her
