Who Says County Fair +?

To the people of Lincoln county;
1t is up to you now to say whether
you want county Fair or not this fall.
We cannot get up a successful fair
without the cooperation and assistance
Of ranchers ard townpeople in general.
The fairs in the past, although success
full, have placed too much burden on a
few. As big an undertaking as a
county fair cannot very we'll be pushed
to successful termination by a few
individuals, let them be ever so ener-
getc and self sacrificing. A success
ful county fair indicates that we are up
with the times and that we have def
mite end in view-and that end is to
improve upon the past. Everyone
should aim to produce something in
the line of farm products or in the line
of ones handicraft to merit place at
our county fair. 4 healthy rivalry Of
this kind tends to inculcate progressive
ideas and marks progressive people.
1t is for you people of Lincoln county
to say whether you will be progressive
or not by the attitude you show towards
this county fair.
The cooperation shown at our past
fairs has been limited and confined to
about the same exhibitors both times.
This we desire to overcome, and must,
therefore, insist upon more general
cooperation. 1t is your fair; it is for
your benefit, and it devolves upon you
to make it paying Investment. One
good feature about these fairs is that
they cost no great amount of cash.
They do, of course, cost some time and
personal effort, without which elements
they cannot be run.
1t is not right nor fair that the work
of preparation and management should
fall upon few willing individuals.
My object with this article is to
arouse more general interest, and for
those SO interested to speak their
mind through the public press or by
direct communication with the secre-
tary, Jay w. Dunn, or the undersigned.
Please let us hear from you.

Strictly defined, the ballet Is properly
theatrical exhibition OF the art Of
dancing in its highest perfection, COM
plying generally with the rules Of the
drama as to it's composition and form.
II was In existence IN Italy IN far back
as A. d. 1900, the court Of Turin In that
day making especial use Of It and the
royal family and mobiles taking part In
It. The ballet was 1rst introduced In
France In the reign Of Louis Kill, and
both that monarch and Louis XIV. &C.
eMsionally took part I'm Ito dances.
In its earliest presentation the ballet
appeared ~dexterously in combination
with the other theatrica; acts and II
said to have completed the chaotic
medley exhibited IN these spectacles.
which were at once NEUROLOGICAL. allie.
gorical. fantastic, .warlike and paste
raj" The reader will not be slow 10
observes that Its development In the
present day has not apparently lost
sight of these conditions.
About the year TOO women made
their first appearance In the ballet,
which up to that time had been per
formed exclusively by men. as was the
case also with plays and operas, but no
woman ballet dancer of any note ap'
peared until 1870.
