Hampton, March 1S.-The commit
tee having in charge the preparations
for the home coming festival that
was to be held here next August, has
decided to abandon the attempt for
this year. The dates had been set for
August 10 to %. 1t appears that the
county fair management afterward
fixed the fair dates for the same time,
altho why their dates were placed so
early is not understood.
1t was thought by some to be an
injustice to those who might have been
on the program of the home coming
celebration, to be obliged to furnish
entertainment in competition with the
county fair, horse races, etc, and as
no other suitable dates seem available.
without interfering with attractions all
ready scheduled, the committee decided
to abandon the meeting entirely for
this YEAR
