SUMTER Will HAVE
FAIR NEXT FALL
If Business Men viii Support
the Movement

A thoroughly representative and
successful county fair for Sumter is
practically assured, if the merchants
of the city will rally to the support
of the Board of Trade committee which
is now at work to raise the funds
necessary for the maintenance of the
fair.
AS chairman of the Board of Trade
committee named for the purpose OF
soliciting subscriptions, Mr.. G. V.
Cunningham, of the Third District
Agricultural College, has labored well
and faithfully. The purpose of the
committee is to organize a stock com
pany which will assure fair for the
county each fall.
Though the details of the work have
not yet been carefully considered, Oc-
tober is thought to be the best month
of the fall season during which to hold
the fair. Dudley Fields, the local base
ball park, with its enclosure and
grounds, can likely be secured as a
place for the fair to be held The fair
should prove to be a source of con-
siderable profit for the merchants of
the city, as it will bring a large num-
Der of people here.
If the stock company can be organ
ized, which is assured if the business
men of the city will support it, it Is
planned to make the fair first of all
county fair Lee, Macon, Schley,
Stewart and other adjacent counties.
could be included in the exhibits and
take part in the fair, if they care to
CO. operate with the local fair asso-
citation.
If the plans proposed can be worked
out, it is believed that the merchants
of the city need be asked to contribute
to the fair but one time, that is, for
the first fair this fall. The gate re-
ceipts taken in this fall should be
sufficient to supply the premiums for
the next fair, thereby perpetuating
the holding of the fair.

new MEMBERS JOINED
The BOARD OF TRADE
Active Campaign Will Be
Made for Members

Active work has been begun by the
Board of Trade in its 1911 campaign
for new members.
At the recent meeting of that body
the names of several local firms and
business men were offered for mem
bership. Among the ones nominated
aId elected to membership We're the
following: Southern Express Com
pany, Mr.. ]. B. Fielder, Mr.. Harvey
Weaver.
The Committee on Membership will
make an active campaign of the bust
ness houses of the city as soon as pos
sible. Many of the members who
joined last year and paid their mem
bership fees have not done so this
year. 1t is hoped to have all these old
members will pay their dues In addi-
ton, it is planned to increase the
of the organization as far
as possible.
An informal report was made by the
Committee on Membership last night,
but more complete report will be
by the time that the next
meeting is held. The chairman of this
committee will appoint several squads
of Canvassers to divide the town up
into sections, in order that the work
of canvassing may be pursued SYSTEM
and thoroughly.
Every citizen is asked to Cooperate
in this work, as it requires much time
and attention to carry out the yearly
campaign for membership successfully.
Anything that can be done by the
various business men to facilitate this
work will be greatly appreciated by
all the members of the Board of Trade.

my Burns, former heavyweight
champion in the pugilistic world,
must go the credit of being the
most effective lobbyist of the
present session. His presence in
Olympia for few short days has
accomplished for the boxing game,
what no one else could have fore
casted would be possible to do,
namely: the legalizing of ten
round contests in this state. In
the house the victory has been
complete The lineup in favor OF
the measure remained intact up
on five amendments, 81 sticking
together from start to finish. The
bill must still go through the
formality of third reading before
the final roll call is made on it,
but the battle of Tommy Burns is
practically won in the house.

Boy Boxer From Old Missouri

ST. JOSEPH, Mo-. Feb. IL
While Knockout Brown has been
climbing 70 the top in New York,

been doing the same on the coast,

ing Jake Barada of this city. who
met Packey Mcfarland in Kan
sas City Feb. g..
Barada is only twenty and his
success has been remarkable. One
year ago he fought his first main
event bout here and since he has
fought some of the best of the sec
ond raters at 1873 pounds.
He has defeated Tommy McFar-
land and Chuck Larson of Chicago
and Mike Malone of Denver. He
became a favorite at Kansas City
when he drew with Johnny Me-
Carthy, who recently fought Pac-
key Mcfarland.
Barada is more fighter than
boxer. He hasNa punch in either
hand and covers so well he is hard
to reach, even though his oppo-
nents Outlook him easily. In ths
clinches he is strong and has a rep
utation for fighting from gong to
gong.
Barada saves his money and
works like Trojan in every bout.
Billy Prescott, who manages the
boy, will match him with any
lightweight in the country for 10
rounds aud will take on any boy
near the top of the lightweight lad
der for any number of rounds.
