FROM WOMAN'S
POINT OF VIEW

The expected has happened-wOmen are
being censured by the other sex for the
nonchalant manner in which they put the
finishing touches TO their toilet in public.
Men are asking If we cannot be brought
to realizing sense of the unpleasant
spectacle Of hairdressing and the read
justment OF collar. belt. and other ae-
cessories in theaters and other public
places
am afraid the habit is too firmly fixed

edict concerning hats at theaters was
issued The hair is always fattened by
a hat. and removing one that has been
carefully placed and securely fastened dis

quite as bad as combing a mustache or
cleaning nails, faults sometimes noted in
men.
There is NJ excuse for rearranging any
portion of a costume. unless II has come
20 grief through accident. Every garment
and each accessory should be so securely
fastened in place that one can forget
them. Careful women never think about
their personal appearance after they are
satisfied that each detail has been proper
ly attended 20. You never see them fuss
ing with stock. belt. or skirt or even their
hair. because they wear no hat or re-
move Il in the dressing room, where they
can have the advantage OF a mirror.
I must say that the average woman
looks neat and trim. She does not need
to comb her hair in public or fall under
masculine disapproval in any feature of
department. Dressing nowadays Is sim
plicity itself and a yawning placket Is a
novelty. Busy women cannot afford much
time for primpng, and We are members
OF that class TO a large extent. 1t takes
no more time 20 do anything carefully
than TO rush through It and continually
make up for haste.
I have never ceased to wonder at the
achievements of some working girls with
whose habits I am slightly acquainted.
They work in Offices and have rather long
hours, and they are always carefully
dressed in clothing mostly made by them
selves As they have only evenings and
holidays. they must be very smart 10 do
the many things OF which I know One
thing is certain-they have no time 10
rectify mistakes OF oversights. so they
must have cultivated the habit Of careful
ness.
! I have had occasion 10 note the tendency
toward better manners in both sexes.
Toothpicks are occasionally seen in pub
| lie, but rarely in the mouth OF woman.
once in a while a man cleans his finger
nails in a car or some waiting place. but
the practice is not general. There is
plenty OF room for improvement even yet.

FAIR WAS GOOD
Thousands in Attendance
Exhibits Good
Everyone Well
Pleased

A monster crowd assembled in Elbert
last Thursday to attend the fifth annual
Gilbert county fair The Elbert people
we're early out in full force, the country
folk we're not long in arriving and the
town soon took on the appearances OF
good sized city, while the trains brought
host of visitors to swell the ever in
creasiDg crowd
The weather man had little joke to
spring on the unsuspecting people and
started the day with a nice warm sun
and little breeze that made things
comfortable. After the crowds had ar
rived the breeze was enlarged to full
grown wind. but this developed no "stay
at home" qualities and the road to the
fair grounds was soon filled and the
grounds were thronged with people.
The exhibits we're larger than usual in
the agricultural division, which was
truly an eye-opener to the visitors from
ontside points, who were not anticipat-
ing large display on account Of the un-
favorable year. An inspection OF the
agricultural building, however, soon set
them right in that respect, for. the ex
hibits were piled high ON all sides and
we're Of a quality that more than came
up to their expectations.
The live stock division was hardly as
large as in former years and the cattle
did not equal the appearance presented
by the horse AMI mule show, where a
number of tine looking animals we're
entered. The display Of hogs and sheep
contained some good specimens, although
the sheep were not SO numerous. The
poultry show was good and comprised
large number OF fine exhibits.
In the kitchen and pantry stores de-
partment the display had an inviting
appearance The temptation to sample
and pass judgment was overcome with
difficulty and all turned away with hun
CRY looks
The fine arts display presented a
pleasing appearance and occupied a.
large space, Some of the exhibits in
this department we're of exceptionally
high quality and we're the subjects OF
much favorable comment
The educational department contained
a large display which reflected much
credit on the methods employed in the
schools OF the county. The maps and
drawings showed special ability OF some
Of the scholars in that line.
The baby show had large number
of entries, thus proving that this indus
try has large and healthy growth in

Owing to the charges made against
him by Mr. Hearst, Governor Haskell

asked him to withdraw from the race,
telling him be could not be elected.
After the convention he saw the great
light and announced himself for Bryan.

OF the county at the suggestion that pos
sibly the republican voters of the south
half Of the county would not stand for
it at the polls. We would remind these
gentlemen that party politics should
receive consideration before as well as
after the convention. Should the demo-
Gratis put the right kind of ticket in the
field some of the north half candidates
may also make the acquaintance OF the
steam roller, landslide, or whatever you
may wish to call it. We will have cor
siderably more to say about this as the
campaign progresses, for we believe the
south half of the county has been
thrown down hard and didu't have it
coming to them either.

FAIR NOTES


No accidents occurred to mar the
pleasure Of the day.
Elbert certainly made good her prom
ises in regard to the fair this year.
Fully 500 people came on the trains
from Denver and Colorado Springs.
A large crowd was in attendance at
the dance in the evening. 101 tickets
were sold.
A noticeable feature of the fair this
year was the absence Of all brawls and
other disturbances.
The Denver Post Boys band arrived
on the Denver train and furnished plenty
OF music for the crowd.
The determination and enthusiasm
shown by the farmers this year was the
backbone Of the fair and they are to be
commended for the stand they took.
The promoters of the fair and their
The Elbert County tribune., 1908-10-01

assistants are deserving OF the highest
praise for their successful management
and too much praise cannot be given
them.
There were 1910 admission badges
sold in addition to the large number OF
children under fifteen years who were
admitted free. The total attendance is
estimated at 1900.
