AUTOMOBILE RACES
At STATE FAIR
Grand Three Day Tourna-
ment At The State Fair
Exhibition And Match
Races Every Day

The Automobile Races at the
State Fair this year will be
of wonderful and thrilling inter-
est to all. The automobile clubs
of the state are arranging a
series of amateur events for
three days races, including class
races for machines of every de-
scription, and endurance races.
There will also be match races
between rival machines and
daily demonstrations and exhi-
bitions in front of the grand
stand. A splendid garage Is be-
ing arranged on the grounds and
will include a completely equip
ped supply depot.
The amazing sale of automo-
biles in Arkansas the past year
and the statewide interest that
is being manifested in automo-
mobiles assures the State Fair
an automobile department of
magnificent proportions.
The first automobile races in
the state were at the State Fair
last year and proved to be among
the most interesting and excit-
ing features of the Third Annual
Fair. but the Auto Division this
wear will be of surprising merit.

his final settlement with the
treasurer of the state and turn

neat little sum OF $17158. 40 j,
which will help to relieve the
situation some. Mr.. Hood says
that there were several other
sheriffs made their final settle
ments on the same day and that
his was the only one that con-
tanned no clerical errors. This
is due to the fact that Mr.. Hood
is one of the best sheriffs in the
state and is very particular to
get the very best clerical force
that can be had.
