How is Your County Fair?

Once again we urge the i'm.
portance of the county fair.
But why a fair:n some one
asks. oh, well, why any effort
for the good Of the county or
the State? For though the
fairs, both county and State,
are for the most part organized
as private associations, they
generally represent praise
worthy patriotism on the part
of the hackers, and too oft their
reward is only the privilege of
going down into their pockets
to meet some deficiency oc-
casioned, in part perhaps, by
your failure to make an exhibit
or to attend. The answer in
brief ms to why you should have
a fair is, for the public good
for giving individuals new
ideals and for stimulating com
munity pride.
But these fairs are social
organizations as well, and SO
helpful in this respect that it is
questionable whether in any
other way they serve SO large
purpose. Bringing together the
representatives of every town
ship at some central place like
the county seat leads the pcO.
pie to know one another,
knowledge as powerful with
the community as the "kuow
thyself' with the individual
They are likewise educational.
The average fair, COUNTY CT
state, has something for the
visitor who goes with his eyes
open and mind alert.
Moreover, our fairs are put
ting larger stress on these
educational features each year.
The midway is lessening, the
gambling devices and those
who play there are on the de-
crease, and the drinking places
have gone or are going. This
new order of things means
much for the larger fairs, but
more for the smaller ones,
which have suffered from the
false impression that special
attractions beyond their finan.
cial reach were necessary to
their success, Numerous most
successful county fairs were
held last year with their agri-
cultural, educational and live
stock exhibits for their sole
drawing cards.
If your county isn't in line
with the progressive counties
with fairs, why not you and
your neighbor get busy at once:
By Il little determined effort on
the part of all classes, you may
have a fair yet-may at least
make a good start in 1914, and
do better next year.-'rhe Pro-
gressive Farmer.

About year ago a rally was held
in parlor "a of the San Carlos hotel
at which time tentative plans We're
made for the formation OF a Y. w.
c. A. in Pensacola. At this meeting
ii was decided that, If after due de-
liberation, and inquiries into conditions
in Pensacola, it was found that the
need was what it seemed to be, a
Young Womans' Christian Association
would be organized.
The Y. w. c. \. has now been in
operation over a year, and the need
for the work has been found to be so
great, and the interest in IT has grown
SO wonderfully, that it has been de-
cided to hold a second rally on Tues
day evening in the auditorium of the
San Carlos, in order that those who at
tended the first meeting may learn
what has been accomplished, and those
who have not had an opportunity to
know fully OF the work, may learn
what it stands for, and what has been
accomplished.
At the meeting which was held at
the San Carlos last year, there were
a number OF men as well as women
of Pensacola, who expressed their in
terest in the work.
