BIG THINGS FOR
FARMERS FAIR
Novel Plan for Admission to Sole
bury Deer Park Exhibit
Is Arranged.
CLASS LISTS NEARLY READY

A most enthusiastic meeting of
the exhibit committee of the Sole
bury Farmers Club was held Satur-
day evening at the home of Mr.. and
Mrs. George H. Ely, near Center
Hill, and additional plans made for
the annual fair to be held at the
Solebury Deer Park on Friday and
Saturday, September and 5.
Plans were made for an athletic
meet on Friday afternoon (Septem-
Der A. under the direction of Arthur
Eastburn, of Doylestown.
A program of racing, jumping
and special stunts, will be arranged.
A large floor plan of the pavilion
at the Deer Park will be made by
Civil Engineer Theodore G. Kitchin
and the space for the different
exhibits determined in advance.
Mrs. D. A. Davenport reported
plans for having a corps of trained
young girls in charge of the house
hold exhibit which will include a
model kitchen in full operation.
Reports from practically all the
committees were received, and the
class list will be especially large and
interesting, in all the departments.
1t was decided to charge an adj
mission of twenty-five cents for
adults and fifteen cents for children,
each ticket to have return coupon
good for the second day, making
the cost to those who attend both
days just half those figures.
The only reason for charging an
admission to this affair, which is
the only strictly mutual farmers
fair in the country. is to cover the
cost of fixing up and maintaining
the grounds for the event. The
deficiency. if any, comes out of the
pockets of the promoters, and any
possible profits (from the admissions,
the only source of income) would be
| used in adding features for another
year.
Mrs. Acsah L. Hurley announced
that in her department special prizes
will be given to children under
fourteen years of age for the
best dressed baby dolls and the
best dressed lady DOLLS" The
first prize in each class will probably
be dolls beds, and the second prizes
dolls carriages.
Mrs. Davenport, together with
Messrs. A. w. Preston, w. w.
Hurley and D. Curry Armstrong
were appointed committee by
President George H. Ely to arrange
for an auction sale at the close of
the exhibit.
The plans for the auctioning of
of stock, provides that any exhibitor
willing to dispose of his stock that
way will have his property specially
marked in the entry lists, and a
charge of five per cent will be
made on such sale or sales.
D. Curry Armstrong, head of the
poultry department, brought up the
question of providing exhibition
pens for poultry, and it was decided
that the committee might designate
the size and specifications of the

Mountain Irons Tax Rate.

H. B. Bacon of the state tax COM
mission spent Saturday at Mountain
Iron and together with Village As
SCISSOR Lawrence Peltier, looked over
the property values of that village.
Mountain Iron has a present valua-
ton of about $11, 100000 and the rate
of tax percentage is twenty-four and
nine-tenths mills, or $2.40 on 500 as
sessment, rate which is considered
quite reasonable in view of the fact
that the village is spending a large
amount of money on street improve
ments.

Logs in Lake on Fire,

The fire department was called to
che Great Northern grounds at about
six o'clock last evening in response
to an alarm sent in by the clerks at
the station to put out fire that had
started among the logs lying on the
bank of Virginia lake and belonging
TO the Bailey Lumber company. The
fire had evidently originated from a
spark from one of the locomotives and
as an engine had been on the tracks
in that vicinity for several hours
previous to the discovery it is the sup
position that the fire had been smould-
ering under the logs for some time
The blaze was soon extinguished with
very little damage.

A Problem in the Bible.
In daily newspaper recently there
appeared the following statement:
Figures show that the
Holy Bible still continues to
be the best seller, and there
isn't problem from Genesis
to Revelations"
Rev. Mr.. Neff, pastor of the First
Presbyterian church, calls attention
to the fact that the first part of the
above statement is true, but that there
is problem in the Bible, and offers
i prize to any boy between the age
If and FL years who will solve it
correctly if he finds the value above
cents. The problem is recorded in
Mark 1886, 81
"For what shall it profit a man if
he shall gain the whole world and lose
his own soul? Or what shall man
give in exchange for his soul?"
