THE BEST COUNTY FAIR

The fifth annual Graham county
fair has passed into history as one
of the best county fairs ever held in
the State.
The exhibits of horticulture and
agriculture were not as large as
those exhibited last year. but the
quality and selection were very fine.
The apiary exhibit was the best ever
seen here. The poultry show was
also excellent.
The real feature this year was the
exhibition of woman's work and the
valley schools exhibit. These ex-
hibits were superior to anything
seen in this line at any previous
county fair. The school, exhibit
being particularly good and of high
progressive order and remarkable on
account of the short time for pre-.
paration.
We cannot pass the fair up this
year without mentioning the daily
program of races and athletic events
prepared by the commission. The
races were exceedingly good and
enjoyable, and in several instances
were the best ever run on this track.
The program Of athletic sports
was greatly enjoyed every day and
were entered into with true sport
mans ambition by the participants.
Much credit must be given to the
Fair Commission for the success of
the fair, and especially to Secretary
Victor Holding for the very able
manner in which he conducted the
business of the fair this year.
The Graham county fair is a fixed
event for our people and it would
be a good idea for the county to
purchase this property and make
the permanent improvements nee
essary for the holding of the county
fair.

THE DAY OF PRAYER

President Wilson's proclamation
calling for national day of PRAYER
on October 4th for the cessation of
war in Europe probably is without
precedent in this or any other coun-
try. But, if so, it is the most beau
tiful precedent that he's ever been
set in any nation. There are prayers
for peace in our prayer books, and
days of prayer for the speedy termi-
nation of wars have been often fixed
by official proclamation in countries
engaged in them; but for a neutral
nation of more than 90,000,00 of
people to get down on its knees and
pray for peace in other countries
will be one of the most impressive,
as well as one of the most unusual,
spectacle ever presented on the face
of the earth. We believe everybody
in the United States will offer up a
prayer ON that day in the earnest
spirit of altruism, which the Presi-
dents message suggests. And if
anything can make a path for peace
where men can see nome" we be
lieve unselfsh supplication from the
heart of a great country can open
the door of divine compassion

the circumstances surrounding your

but will weave in the mesh between

Garrison for Long Power Grants,
While Lane 0pposes-Fight

WASHINGTON, Feb. ga wide
difference of opinions exists in Presi-
dent Wilson's Cabinet on the question
of conservation-the next great item
after trusts in the announced pro-
gram Of the istration-became
evident to-day in the report made py
Secretary of War Garrison upon Sem
ator Martins bill proposing a 100
year grant of privileges to the
Roanoke Development Company This
concern is allied with the Virginia
Power Company, engaged in water
power projects.
The bill went to Secretary Garrison
on January II from the Senate Com
merce Committee. He has returned II
with a suggestion that the period OF
the grant be reduced to 80 years, but
with the comment that he Endorses
the measure in other respects.
This position is the reverse of that
taken by Secretary of War Stimson.
who refused to consent to similar
Federal grants of water power priv
leges 1t is as definitely out OF mar
rnony with the policy of Secretary OF
the Interior Lane. AS the two men
will have the most to say upon the
conservation question when the Adj
ministration program is drawn up,
the contest between Federal conser
walton and States rights develop
ment seems to-day to be on the eve
of making trouble close at home for
the President.

Or. Ralph u. OLeary, who visited the

wrote.
UnspeaksbIe Hardships.
"The great problem which CON
fronts Bulgaria at the present mo-
ment, that OF dealing with the refu-
gees from Macedonia and Turkey. is
one which should evoke the sympathy
OF every civilized nation They have
gone through hardships and priva-
tons almost impossible 10 imagine.
Winter has set in with great
severity and as the refugees have
only the clothes they wear, which in
most cases are very scanty their
condition is truly pitiable. The snow
is thick upon the ground. but many
are still sleeping out in the open or
in rudely- constructed shelters vainly
endeavoring to shield themselves
from the keen wintry blasts. The
mortality, consequently is extremely
high, especially among the children
and old people.
Many Deeds of Heroism.
Many cases Of heroic self sacrifice
are seen where mothers have strip
ped off their own clothes and wrap
ped them around the children, them
selves perishing.
THE resources of the state are
strained to the utmost and it is to
outside help We must look for a so
luton OF the problem. Surely hu-
mainly will hear the pitiful cry Of
these poor people who have strug-
gled for many years with indomit-
able courage for freedom from the
yoke Of Islam and who have lost ev-
erything, homes husbands, children,
IN their last great fight for this lib
erty."
