A mass meeting was held in the

den and Maurer, the committee which
was appointed to investigate the mat.
ter connected with the fair association,
reported that the association was in
debt to the amount Of SLIGO. 1t was
also reported that money to the extent
OF $1,000, which has been donated by
the county, would have to be returned
II the association ever disbanded.
After considerable discussion, the
Chamber of Commerce decided not TO
accept the proposal for two reasons
First, because it would interfere with
our Farmers Institute, which has
proven to be a great success, and any.
thing that would injure that institu
ton should not be attempted. Second,
because of the large amount of "blue
sky" noticeable in the transaction.

Conventions are useful in sumula-
tirg ambition for greater things. If a
town or community sends one of its
members to a convention, that dele
gate will return fun OF new mspira'
ton, and often starts movement
which develops into great usefulness.
Hence the community Is the gamer,
and this gives confidence and faith
that results in development along all
other lines. None of us do quite rs
much as We could, and no town, or city,
is as active Ms it might be. A con-
yention of live men spurs the laggards
