It is an especial pleasure to note the
 success of youthful participant in any competition; the award of first booth prize to Miss Marion Childers this week at the State Fair was a testimonial for taste and discrimina- ton that this young woman richly de-
 served and one which will afford en- eouragement to an already enthusiastic but rather timid young persons.
 The booths in the womans building which were secured by the artists of various sort-those who paint on can vas or on the various types of paper suitable to pastels or water color, and those who paint on china or stencil de- signs upon cloth, all without exception were cleverly and tremendously ar ranged, and all had in them work well done, so that they were a credit to the fair state and county institution. With their specimens of work we'll placed against softened back grounds flower or plant stationed at just the right spot they were soothing in the impression made upon the visitors to the woman's building who had come from the glare and clamor of the mot ley collection of noises and colors on the grounds. Each booth was differ ent, their decoration and arrangement having been effected with a desire for striking d new note in fair displays. Just such competition is the key to the success which Mrs Reid of the womans department of the fair has achieved.
 Miss Chlders' booth is recalled by All who examined this section of the womans building, and it was for the than for specimens of her work in ceramics that the prize, $50, Was awarded. She had used brown tones in her treatment of the walls, and vel low muslin curtains, hand made, soft ened the light entering the cheery place from her windows. The chairs, settee and tea table Were Chinese grass furniture, and several ferns added a freshness and homelike as- pect to the little nook. A book cover fooled leather was one of her eX- bibits, and this was placed in a half careless but conspicuous place, in one of the chairs, and many people who stopped to admire the booth were inn pressed with the clever design and fine workmanship on the book Several water color paintings hung on her walls, gave a bit of variety and won pleasant recognition. A tea set, done in wistaria composed the contents of the tea table. and showed Miss Chill ders' cleVerness in designing-for her designs are all her own.
