Elmore County Fair.

The local talent entertainment,
Gilmore County Fair" to be given
in the Standard Theatre for the
benefit of the Progressive Club will
be the finest and most entertainment
ment ever given in Mountain Home
This will be real County Fair with
pumpkins, potatoes and cabbage on
display and real bicycle races horse
races and pig races. Plenty of fakirs
will be there with their gold bricks
and side shows, a real wild man and
tat lady. In fact there will be at
fractions finer and greater than ever
before seen in Elmore county. Ad-
yertisements have been sent to all
the neighboring towns and counties
and it is likely there will be an un-
Usual crowd in attendance. AT any
rate Jake Spruceby and his wife
nave sent word they will be on hand
and as they are related to half the
Jeople of Elmore county the Spruce
by family will likely have reunion
right in the fairgrounds. Parson Brigs
will be out to look after his flock
and keep them away from temptations
which are bound to lie in their paths
on an occasion of this kind.
Furniture dealer Herder has offered
plush parlor suit to any couple in
Elmore county willing to have the
knot tied at the annual County Fair.
So far there have been no volunteers
but it is hoped some buxom couple
will take courage when the time
comes 1t has been rumored too, that
our strenuous president and other
members of Washington's Diplomacy
will be there, but this may be an
exaggeration but at any rate we are
sure it will be simply great.
The County Fair scene after all
makes up only a small part of this
performance. The biggest attraction
will be in the dances and choruses
One hundred children and young peo-
pie are rehearsing afternoon and
evening on the latest, prettiest dane
es and choruses. The Spanish Tango
which has been danced in America
only for the past two months will be
one of the specialties. Miss Watts
will give one of her most attractive
numbers. Miss Book, the instructor,
remarked at rehearsal last night,
Miss Watts is a very unusual young
artist in dancing and has a great
future before her if she continues.
Tickets for the performance can be
secured at the Drug Store. Doors
open at 7:30 September 2 and 8.

Stage Line Abandoned

The Mountain Home Rocky-Bar and
Atlanta mail route, an established ac-
commCdation for many years, has
been discontinued and a new con-
tract has been let to Mr.. Rice of
Hill City for mail service from Hill
City to FeatherVille and bids are be-
ing asked for a mail service from
Pine to Bennett.
Mr.. Morrison who has had the con-
tract to carry mail between Noun

four years had bid in for mail ser
vice from Mountain Home to Feather
vile, but the contract was let to the
Hill City man Notwithstanding the
fact that the number of patrons by way
of Mountain Home is about $50 as
compared with the short half dozen
On the new route and this is not all,
mail will of a necessity be one day
later in delivery with prospect of
none at all for weeks If conditions
prevail last winter on the Hill City
line which is branch line and diff
ficult to keep open.
Mountain Home and the Upper
country will be greatly inconvenience
ed by this new order of things in
which the postal authorities at
Washington seemingly aim to econo-
