of Mrs. Wolf, whose intelligence and
energy have twice made it the blue

IL is impossible to enter into details
concerning what can be seen in one
day. 1t would require weeks to do
the fair thoroughly and give a de-
tailed account of the same, but | must
not forget to say that the state build
ings are very creditable. Among them
we note our own dear state of Oregon.
California, Washington, Idaho, Utah,
New York, Missouri and Massachn-
setts are represented by state build
ings. California and Washington are
probably taking the lead, partly on
account of their location on the
grounds, and proximity to our state
geographically.
Another thing want 10 say is that
Coos county stands alone as having a
building of her own. 1t stands near
the Oregon building and is a neat
piece of architecture and more expen-
sive than most buildings according to
it's size, from the fact that it Is fin

painted pure white. The interior fin
ish is of native hard wood, which is
capable of taking on a very high grade
polish. Their exhibit is worthy of
note also.
