Don't Whisk Your Hat.

Never use a whisk broom to clean hat, either stiff or soft, particularly a soft hat, as it gradually removes the fine surface originally on the hat. The worst effect. however, is the wearing away of the band and binding by such rough usage. The effect Is more quickly shown on the best grades of bands and binding. A fine hair brush, one of curved shape, made especially to use under the curl of the hat, is good. Best of all, however. is thick piece of wooden cloth. Such pieces are now made in the form of pads. with n strap across the back, so that they can be held securely fin the hand American Fatte-.

MOVE FOR COUNTY FAIR
Commercial Club Discusses Project
and Belief General That 1t
Should Be Held.

Richfield. June pa move was started
this week for a county fair by members
of the Commercial club. At a meeting of
the club Thursday evening the matter
was taken up and fully discussed. 1t
was the general belief of the members of
the club that a three or four days event
could be had here next fall. A general
outline of the affairs as discussed at the
present time includes horse racing at the
driving park. basket ball. baseball and
other games at the ball park, a live stock
exhibition at the driving park, an agri-
cultural domestic art and mechanical ex-
hibition in some building in the city,
and some other attractions and amuse-
ments calculated 10 draw a good crowd
and insure a good time for all those who
will attend. besides trying to develop
more interest in the agricultural and live
stock industries in this part of the state
o. II. Bork and w. A. Sheppard were APP
pointed a committee to wait upon the
directors Of the Richfieid Fair & Driving
association and ascertain if it is willing
to cooperate with the Commercial club
in inaugurating and carrying on the work
There is no doubt but that the proposition
will be most favorable TO the race track
association. as the track and grounds of
the Richfield Fair & Driving association
were built for that purpose.
At a meeting of the Riehfield Fair e.
Driving association held this week rae
ing meet was decided upon for July "A.
An invitation will be extended to horse
men of the state to bring their animals
here and race them during that day.
