TINUE FOR FIVE DAYs-GovER-
NOR GILcHRIsT WILL BE PRES

Marianna- Oct ia meeting of
the Jackson County Fair Association, a
body of energetic, public spirited citi-
zens of Mariana having IN hand the
preparations for the approaching fair,
was held today at the court house for
the purpose of perfecting the plans
and arranging the details Of the great
Jackson County Fair to be held in
Mariana October 22-26. Present at
the meeting were ]. D. Smith, chair
man, w. H. Milton, treasurer, M. r.
Burton. secretary, John Milton, ST.
head of the agricultural department
of the fair; John Dillon, supervisor of
the live stock exhibits: 8. A. Daff1n,
manager of the parades; George Far
ley, superintendent of shows, and e.
w. Speed, of the committee on live
stock and transportation.
The ladies of the town having from
the very beginning taken an active in
terest in the plans and preparations
for the fair, large number of their
leaders in public work met with the
committee. some of them being given
important assignments.
w. r. Chamblis. a public spirited
citizen of Greenwood, was in town to
day representing his home district and
assured the managers of the fair that
his community rich agricultural Sec
ton of the county, would be well rep
resented at the fair.
BipIane Flights.
Two flights each day of the fair by
large Wright biplane are features Of
unusual interest that have lately been
added to the fair attractions. The
Mars Fowler Aviation Company have
contracted to give two airship flights
per day, under the management of ].
s. Kloecker, who will, in addition to
making the flights as above stated,
give instructions to the visitors at the
fair in the mechanism of his machine.
The fair committees are in receipt Of
wire advising that the machine has
already been shipped. The airship has
not become so common but that it is
still thing of wonder, and in view
of this fact and the further fact that
the fair exhibits will be entirely free,
It is expected that 1t will be the means
of attracting a great many visitors
who would not otherwise come to the
fair
Cheap rates have been given by the
railroads and the fair committee and
Mariana generally are preparing for
what promises to be the largest crowd

HiSh-Grdde Manufactures

The most casual comparison of the output of the
manufacturing establishments of today with those Of
fifty years ago will convincngly show the great pro-
gress that has been made Old good enough
methods have given place to practical efforts for the
highest attanable perfection and elegance consistent
with strength efficiency and durability These efforts
and achievements have lifted into fresh prominence
the problem of efficient labor In fact this is at
the most insisent and difficult problem confront
ing our manufacturing industries. If to main
tain place of leadership among the manufacturing
nations and accelerate progress, must have it.
Science it is true has made most substantial con-
trbuton to this industrial progress but ultimately
all depends upon clear brains and steady nerves. Now
it is not a matter of opinion conjecture, but of
statistics and records of experience that alcoholic
liquors are doing vastly to render labor neff

Our Schools

The commencement season calls fresh attention
to schools Many parents by unremittng toll
strict economy and selfdenal have been able to keep
their sons and daughters in school, To such
mencement day is especially delightful. Our schools
are becoming increasingly efficient. Every patriotic
American takes pardonable pride in them and their
work. Much conscientious work has been done by
both teachers and pupils during the closing year I'm
doubtedly, education lies at the very foundation Of
good citizenship Without it nation cannot long
survive The liquor traffic by every rubric and critic
rion stands squarey opposed to the work of the
schools. 1t ressts, undermines and destroys their
work at every point It takes children out of school
and consigns them to sweat-shops breakers and the
like. 1t units mentally for the highest efficiency,
many who attend school. The schools teach culture
and refinement, progress altruism and self-control
The saloon teaches coarseness stagnaton, brutality
selfshness thriftessness and libertnsm. The school
and the saloon stand related the day and the night
Every friend of schools ought to be foe OF the
saloon, and they rapidly becoming so.

The Church and the Liquor Traffic

The attitude of the church toward the liquor
traffic is of pronounced antagonsm The church
has never spoken in emphatic tones nor with
greater unanmty than in the sessions of the bodies
just held. The growth of temperance sentiment in
society whole has been very great, but nowhere
has this advancing sentiment been more pronounced
and emphatic than in the church of Jesus Christ The
rightful place of the church in the advance of the
temperance hosts is unquestonaby that of leadership
By her call and constitution she has been so placed
To abandon her place at the head of the hosts OF
righteousness is practically to surrender her great
commission and to defeat Gods purpose in her Her
attitude toward traffic damnable in its every
phase cannot be otherwise than that of undertaking
opposition The battle is on between the church and
the traffic in Intoxicating liquors. and there will be
compromise or cessation until the traffic IS over
thrown.

there is widespread desire for reliable information

sought to accomplish this by means of liquor adver-

Some of the papers in their abect servlity to the
liquor interests, sold out their editorial space to
the liquor people. While others refused to do this
they did, in consideration of this Advertising agree to
make little reference to the progress of the

The editor of leading eastern daily received
such letter and commenting upon it editoriay, said
in substance: "In looking advertising space

advertising; but when it comes to turning the

suppressing all intelligence relating thereto. Reliable

FOR BLACK
HILLS FAMOUS RESORTS
BOOSTER QUARTET GAVE a
FINE MUSICAL PROGRAM
PROCLAIMING FEATURES
OF HILLS COUNTRY

Four young men with rich and
harmonious voices proclaimed in
song and story the great features of
the Black Hills country as a place in
which to spend a summer vacation
or to seek in the regaining of de-
parted health. The Bfack Hills poo-
pie have something t. show South
Dakota people across the Missouri
river and they have adopted a novel
method of introducing that sec
ton of the state to the other half.
Many on this side are aware of the
fine features in the Hills country,
but there are hundreds and humid
reds who have not the faintest con-
ception of what a glorious country
lies at their very doorway to
enjoy, either for pleasure or for re-
gaining the health.
The towns of Deadwood, Belle
Fourche, Spearfish. Lead. Hot
Springs. Rapid City, and the manag-
er of Sylvan Lake have formed a
boosters association, the object of
which is to advertise to the people
of South Dakota in the eastern half
what there is ove there to see i'm the
way of scenic effects, and what a
wonderland it is to spend a vacation.
These towns secured the services of
four young men to sing OF the glor-
les of that part of South Dakota, and
of another to tell the story in a word
picture. The singers are Albert An
derson, first tenor: Roscoe Geller,
second tenor; Sidney Ickes, first bass
and Herbert Swerer, second base,
while Paul Martin. a son of Congress
man Martin does the talking.
The young men are touring the
state in an automobile, and visiting
all the towns possible. They are trav-
elling over the South Dakota Scenic
Highway, and are boosting for that
as well. The young men reached
Mitchell late yesterday afternoon, to
give a concert in the city hall. The
concert had not been we'll advertised
owing to the young men not being
able to get in from Plankinton in
time, owing to the rain. However,
they certainly gave the people a fine
entertainment, o We're they the
least backward in singing about ey-
erything they knew in response 10
the many eneores they received. The
quartet puts up music that is excel
lent. Their voices harmonic with
fine effect, and they show quality
and good Judgment in presenting
their selections. They sing from gay
to the grave, and with solos by An
derson and Ickes and some mono
logue work by Geller they made a
fine impression on the audience.
! Paul Martin gave an interesting
