No matter what your circumstances are, you can find something to exhibit that will interest some one else. To such men and women of the county that realize that this will be a reunion of an ambitious people, the announcement of the Fair means much. The old gen tlemen and ladies should come and see what their sons and daughters and grandsons and granddaughters are doing and be remindedof the daysgone by. The middle-aged should attend and rekindle the fires of youth.
 The young men and young wo- men entitled to a place in the struggle for good citizenship and better civilization should att tend, give this great enterprise their assistance and enjoy the splendid success of the first Great Fair in many years.
 The Fair will be on the same racing and entertainment cir cult as are all the Fairs in this part of the state and the man. agement is sparing no expense for the entertainment of those who attend. The catalogues are being compiled now and one will be mailed to each resident of the

The First Annual Jackson County Fair will be held on the grounds of the association north of Newport, October 14th to 17th inclusive, 1914. The plant is entirely new and modern and the officers will make every ef- fort to facilitate the demands for space that are presented.
 It is intended that the Fair Shall hereafter be an annual event and, although all possible means will be used to make the first Fair a grand success, still, lit shall be the aim of the asso- citation to make it bigger and better each year. Naturally, the success of any enterprise de- pends largely on the support and enthusiasm of the people con- cerned or interested.
 The farmers, merchants, pro- fessional men, artisans, labor ing and salaried men and women of Jackson county have an op- portunity before them now of showing just how much they are interested in advancing the interests and ideals of 'Coun- ty with Future"
 From all over the county come assurances that there will be largest crowds ever seen here and the interest that is being manifested is indeed, gratifying to the management. The mer- chants are all to be thanked for their prompt responses to the call for help. The farmers are preparing their exhibits and those who are not preparing them are getting ready to do so.
