INDUSTRIAL
FAIR WILL Be
INTERESTING

When the Chlldren's State Industrial
Fair convenes here next month in con-
nection with the regular state fair
the people of the state Of Oregon will
be given the opportunity Of examining
admiring and awarding prizes on ex-
hibits produced by 10000 of oregon's
125,OO0 school children.
Since the movement looking to the
establishment Of this fair and making
1t permanent thing in the life Of the
young people was launched this
spring, every county in the state has
been aroused and all will send exhib-
its. Each county. in addition to send
ing exhibits to the state fair, will hold
county fairs and 1t is estimated that
$4,000 in prizes will be distributed by
the counties and state combined.
The exhibits will consist Of agricul-
tural products and products Of a me-
chanical character That is for the
boys, and also for some Of the girls,
for many girls have entered the gar
den and poultry contests. AS prizes,
besides cash, stock and mechanical
tools will be offered. The movement
Is big enough so that 1t also takes in
It's scope the girls and they will have
on exhibition garments made by their
own hands, and lot of other things.
The winners will be awarded prizes in
the shape Of useful household articles
and cash.
The idea of the movement is TO in
terest the children in agricultural and
Industrial work, and after they once
are interested they will learn how to
work. After they have learned and
have to leave the schools and go into
the world they will be in position to
do the things the world demands Of
them, for there is a great demand for
people who know how to do agricul-
tural and Industrial work. Besides
this 1t will bring about the much
closer relationship between the boys
and the fathers on the farms and
brighten the homes, and on top Of 1t
all when once in full swing 1t will in
crease the wealth of the state by mill
lions of dollars; for If every boy in
the school would establish a chicken
yard there would be more eggs and
poultry for the trade; and in like
manner should he establish gardens or
20 into the stock business, even
though on a small scale, the elemen-
tai wealth of the state will be in
creased.
The industrial fair, though in its
first year, is destined to be a grand
success, and 1t will be one Of the in
teresting features of the regular state
fair.
