FAIR OFFICERS AND
CITY TO COOPERATE
Securing an Industrial Hall for
Exhibits will Prove to
Be Problem.

A definite plan OF cooperation be
tween Chanute and the Four County
District Agricultural Society was
outlined at an adjourned session of
the city commissioners Tuesday
evening when they conferred with
{. D. Resler and W. w. Stanfeld,
president and secretary respectively
of the fair association. The latter
officers have selected September 10
to 10 as the days for the Four
County Fair and they wished to
know early what arrangements could
be made with the city for place to
hold it.
After considerable discussion
the commissioners unanimously
adopted the motion of Lapham
and Sans that the city enter
into contract with the in
corporated agricultural society for
the rent of the Katy City Park for
the week beginning September 9 for
the purposes of holding an agricul-
tural fair upon the consideration of
the society turning over to the city
at the end of the week one half of
the net proceeds received during
the week, which proceeds should
be expended by the city for perma
nent improvements of that park.
The securing of an adequate place
for housing the fair exhibits is a
problem which received much at
tention from the five men. Resler
and Stanfield both hoped that the
city would this summer build a per-
manent Industrial Hall for that pur-
pose. The commissioners wish to
do so but lack the funds. Mayor
Lapham and Sans were decidedly
in favor of thoroughly repairing the
grandstand instead of rebuilding and
enlarging it at cost of Sr4o7. IS &C
cording to the contract made by the
council. With the money saved
thus they might be able to erect an
exhibit hall which could also be used
for various meetings.
Johnson vigorously opposed the
idea that the grandstand could be
made safe for crowds by any meth
cd save its actual reconstruction
and wished the councils contract to
stand. In line with the plan which
he favors the mayor secured the
agreement of Resler and Stanfeld to
turn over $500 of the Fair funds
now on hand to the city to assist in
the Industrial Hall if it
should arrange to do so. Over the
vote of Johnson the COM
adopted motion to in
terview contractor Brown as to ar
engagements that might be made for
strengthening the grandstand and
building a wing of the Industrial
Hall.
