From the comments Of visitors who
know, we believe the Winn Parish
Fair grounds will be considered the
model fair grounds of the State.
Everything is arranged for the &C.
eommodation and comfort OF the Wis
TORS. The location right on two
railroads will eliminate bus fare ana
facilitate getting to and from the
grounds. You DO not have to hurry
away to catch the train. You can
spend all the time you are here ENJOY
ing the sights of the fair up to within
five minutes of train time.
The management expects to make
arrangements to run special trans 1or
several of the special days, and WILL
make special low rate if possible on
al railroads for the entire time OF the
Fair.
Everything in connection with the
Fair is getting along fine and 1t IS
getting time for every 1ood citizen OF
this section to begin to throw up your
hat and Hoo Rah for the Wlnn tarlsn
Fair. This is decidedly the biggest
thing Wipn has had in long time
and it will be worth many dollars to
the country in the way Of improved
live stock and agriculture. 1t means
fhe real commencement OF these
Industries in this part of the country.
The success of the Boys Corn CLUB
this the first year should encourage
every one of us to do our best to make
this fair the best in the country. We
can do it if you will all get busy. 1t
IS your fair and it is upto you to either
make it a success or failure. Nv

prizes offered, and in this manner
help us show the world what we can
do.
