ANOTHER FAIR
FOR NEXT YEAR
Committee Settled Up At
fairs and Paid All
Expenses
MEETING CALLED FOR NOV. I.
For The Discussion sand Preliminary
Arrange For the
Next Years Fair.

The committee having in charge the
arrangements for the Paw Paw fair held
a final meeting to close up the business
last Monday evening.
Owing to some misunderstanding In
regard to the receipts from the two ball
games during the fair, the committee
found that there was not money enough
on hand to pay all expenses incident to
the fair. The committee however, with
the assistance of several of Paw Paws
enterprising citizens, went down into
their pockets and made up the deficiency.
So that all bills are paid, and the big
fair is now history
The fair was a great success, and the
committee were loud in their praise of
the assistance rendered by sub. commit
tees, the band, merchants, and citizens
in general who worked so hard for the
success OF the enterprise. 1t was the
universal verdict of the committee that
the way was now clear for another bigger
better and more satisfactory fair for
next year, aid plazs for the same we're
discpssed.< 1t was decided that meeting
40 called for Monday evening Novem-
ber 7, at the council rooms for the dis
cussion, and preliminary arrangement
for the fair next year. 1t is hoped that
business men, and in fact all who are In-
terested in the welfare of Paw Paw come
to the meeting.
II any of the prize winners at the fair
have not yet received their premiums,
they can get an order for the same from
S. O. Kenyon by calling at his store.

ASHES IN THE STREET.

The village marshal desires The True
Northerner to call attention to the fact
that there is an ordinance in force
10 the village of Paw Paw against
dumping ashes in the streets. 1t seems
that some of the citizens have forgotten
that there is such ao ordinance and are
using the streets for dumping place
for ashes This notice should serve as
reminder and will undoubtedly serve to
abate the nuisance.

BY A GOOD FELLOW,

Well, we'll, fellows, maybe you
think I'm not the busy, busy geek
just about now. It's one awful job
to have to get all these Good Eel
lows in touch with the children for
whom they are going to provide a
Christmas.
There are so many children who
need Santa's help this year. and so
many, many Good Fellows who are
willing to help them: but it's la
Dor of love that | am doing. and
only wish that there were twice as

ready.
If you haven't gotten your letter
telling who to play Santa Claus to,
don't fret. Just keep your eye on
the mailman tomorrow morning
and he'll surely bring it to you. for
the last of those letters are going
into the mail tonight.
And now let me tell you what We
are going to accomplish.
We are going to make more than
200 kids happy. I've told you that
before, but | tell you now that
have very vivid hopes Of bringing
the number up to 800 within the
next two days.
A man came In yesterday and
left two-bushel sack of apples.
They will be divided up into a
number of parcels and will be sent
out with the toys and nuts and
candies and other good things
which will go out from the Good
Fellows who preferred to have me
look after the children for them,
they not having time to do 1t
themselves.
Another man left me 10 orders
of 81 each on one of the biggest
|, stores in town. Every one of these
orders will make kiddie happy.
And still another man came In
and told be that II there were not

PRATT IS
RESPONSIBLE

An investigation into the record
of Fifth ward trunk sewer No. g.,
the assessment roll for which was
approved by the city council last
night, shows that the contract has
the approval and bears the sigma
ture Of Mayor Pratt, although It is
$4,000 higher than the estimate.
Further, it shows that the sewer
is awarded on the basis of $2.75 per
day for Iaborers, In spite of the fact
that it was figured against the
property at SO per day. The con-
tract containing the $2.75 per Gay
clause had the approval of Mayor
Pratt, as his signature is under
meath,
