TUESDAY, OCTOBER 20, 1914.

The parade of school children Friday
morning was an interesting spectacle.
The procession was headed by the
Hickory Grove band and the pageant
was directed by Superintendent r. C.
Burts of the Rock Hill graded schools
assisted by others. Several Of the
schools-Bethesda, India Hook, Oak
Ridge, Friendship, Mt. Holly and Ca
tawba, had prettily decorated floats.
Bethesda won the first prize for having
the best float; India Hook second, and
Oak Ridge, third.
The various shows did a fairly good
business, Friday and Saturday-es-
pecially the merry -go-round and the
Ferris wheel. There were also several
good horse races. Nearly every one in
the ground repaired to the race track
Friday night, to see the fireworks dis
play. The spectacle was beautiful
one.
The monster crowd on Friday was
much disappointed at the inability Of
Aviator Terrill to make a flight. The
aviator tried to fly, but broke his ma
chine, and it was not until Saturday
afternoon that flight was made, the
airman circling the grounds several
times and giving an exhibition of bomb
dropping.
Nothing occurred to mar the per-
formance Of the high diver, the man
diving twice each day from the top Of
q 120-foot ladder, into pool Of water.
There were several horse races on
Friday and Saturday afternoons. Num-
bers Of school children took part in
athletic events Friday. Rock Hill de-
feated Yorkville 10 to in a football
game Friday afternoon.
The general exhibit building contin-
ued to be the place Of greatest interest
during the last two days Of the fair
broidery work, quilts, farm products
and other exhibits all proving of much
interest.
Although the fair association has
been at an enormous expense which
has not been met in receipts due to
adverse weather conditions, the asso-
citation is not disheartened, but con-
siders the fair a successful one at least
in the number and quality Of exhibits.
Many Of those who attended are loud
in their praises Of the exhibition and
all think 1t a great improvement over
