QUE COMING FAIR.

recognize. Every loyal sou of AauI!
county wants to DO something for hI
home county; ard frequently we NEE
to discuss ana d-ter nine how we caV
best help this town and county. Now
it oceans 10 us, and we wish to give Il
oaI rea ieis the suggestion, that tns
best way to help this town and county,
IL to hello every Iaud BILE enterprise
trat is launched. Buy youT goods al
home; TatroniZe home in ustrles, IA L
up home enterprises; send your chill
dren to no ue schools; praise your town
ana county ana section; come out Of
your shell ana help "push along" every
good thing that - started. That IS
he best ard surest and quickest way
ever devised, to build mp any com
munity.
The Fail is on taps now talk it up
We had the greatest Fan and Horse
Show last year ever held in the South.
Why not have a greater one this year?
We could have had even a greater one
last year IL the people had believed in
It. We can have greater one this
year If the people will relieve in it.
Who are the people? You are one of
them. Set a good example fog all the
others by believing in and talking up
your county Fair.
No Won Lypno5 vubaf tho bYOooCf
thing about any Fair? DO you know
what it takes first and foremost to
make any Fair successY The crowd.
That Is always the biggest thing d
the most essential thing to every sue
cesstul Fair. The thing that attracts
most people to Fair, and gives them
most entertainment after they get
there, and sets them to talking ana
takes them lack again the next day,
is the crowd You can make one of
the crowd You can take your wife
and children, and make several more.
You can talk and talk and talk and get
your little circle OF friends interested,
and contribute greatly to the crowd,
and the crowd is the biggest part of
the Fair.
The show rings ana races will be all
right. Don't fret or worry about that.
The horses Will re here; tne drivers
Will be here; the races Will be fair and
square and fast. All that will be
looked after, is heing looked after.
The part for you to do, just as we are
d ing, is to Try to interest your friends
and make it social success. Why, |
nearly everybody except Bob Williams
said last year that Columbia could not
have a horse show; that the boxes
would be empty and all that: we all
lacked faith. But 1t proved to be- the
feature of the meet. and the boxes
were all crowded after the first night.
LAST year many of them had to be sold
,ne night at a time; this year Society
IS already trying to get theirs reserved;
md when they are put up to be sold
hey will all go IN jltfy. The CITY
Fathers, with commendable interest,
rave consented to have some of the
treet lights loaned to the Association
Ilnng FAIR week, and all the lights
possible VIII be shut of il town. and
he Horse Snow ring, which was not
- bright last year as it should have
'een, will be brilliantly lit up this
ear. That is improvement number
ne over last year. and marked I'M ,
movement at that.
The Heiald is not hothering itself
bout the program. We have conf {
ence in those who have that in charge. {
We believe they will do their part.
[ they do not we will roast them to a '
queen s taste when it is over. The I
art we are most interested IN and the
art we wish most to interest our
eacers IN, is the social feature. We like I
horse race very we'll. but we like the t
umsn race better; and it helps the
uman race to he social; to quit work,
ct away fiOm home, meet and mix :,
al talk with each other. 1t is
