The social side OF the fair is one
that is too important to be over ooked
in every possible way. In many com
munities the fair is TIL, one medium
by which farmers and their families
meet friends and relatives and form
acquaintances among people living in
other parts of the county. People meet
at the fair who seldom see each other
throughout the rest of the year. This
chance to renew acquaintances and
friendships and to meet strangers. of
course, is a splendid thing. \ wide
acquaintance is a broadening factor in
the life of any person, and the farmer
needs such an influence as much as any
one, To further this idea picnic din
ners on the grounds, township and
school district receptions (the people
of one district inviting those of another
to basket lunch) and various kinds
of get together meetings should be en-
couraged. 'f :
The worth of a county fair is judged
by the number of exhibitors, 1t can
never be Of great influence unless a
large percentage of the people within
the county are interested in it's growth
and Improvement Every one should
plan to exhibit. Then only does the
fair become a real, vital. helpful In.
