were received Tuesday by Secretary

Work is progressing nicely at South
Side Park. The race course is in ex-
cellent condition, and things never
looked brighter for successful fair |
than this year.

The machinery exhibit this year
will eclipse any previous year. This
is an exhibit of much interest to the !
farmers, and most every kind of farm
implement will be on exhibit.
Much interest is being manifested |
by the school teachers all over the
county over the School Day at the fair.
And it is thought that nearly every |
school child in the county will be pres
ent on that day.

A telephone message from Smith
Thomas at Winchester states that the
Maury County Fair is attracting
great deal of interest over there and
that many good horses from that Sec
ton will be on hand.

Season tickets for the fair and the
horse show will be on sale at the
business houses of Columbia up till
Tuesday night. They will then be
withdrawn from general sale and can
be secured only at South Side Park
at the gate.
Perhaps no feature of the fair will
be of more interest than the Old Sol
der Ride, which will take place on
night. The management is
very DESTROYS of having at least hun
bred or more of the old soldiers in the
ride.
