A Matter of Revived Interest

We notice by our beloved contemporary, the Coeonno Sun, that the Shakespeare Club of Flag staff had a meeting last Monday night at which the concluding chapters of the Odyssey were under discussion along with the theme of Greek hospitality. The latter, any time within the last thirty cen tures until now. could hardly have been regarded as a subject of current interest but it is so now In some quarters. London, Paris and Rome the question of Greek hospitality is the overshacowing one, much more so than any problem that presents itself on either the western front or at the Dardaneles.
 If the ladies of the Flagstaff Shakespeare Club can settle it in such a manner as to show that the

" Commissioners Wednesday When
Rerrr,t OF Appropriation was Made

Deming had the pleasure Wednes-
day of entertaining X. Il. Putney,
president of the New Mexico State
Fair Association and well known
wholesale merchant of Albuquerque;
d. a. Mcpherson, president of the
Journal Publishing Company of Albu-
querque, and r. l.. ID. McAllister,
news editor of the Albuquerque Nor
ming journal. The visitors are max
ing the rounds of the counties of the
state arousing enthusiasm for the
state fair to be held in Albuquerque
October II 10 l6.
4 meeting with the county com
missioners was held in the afternoon
at the county court house before
which Mr.. Putney laid the plans for
n real state fair A number of the
representative business men of the
city were present. He spoke at great
length on the advantages of state
fair to the state and to the people of
Luna county and urged that an ap-
preparation be- made from the county
funds To create an exhibit for Luna
county of which the community could
he proud. and that would. he pointed
out. mean much in the way of at.
tracing settlers to the Mimbres Val
ley. He made ii plain that the agri.
cultural exhibits were depended on
to literally make the fair and not
aegregations of iugglers, sword swol-
lowers, and off-color dancers that
have up 10 this time been associated
with the fair.
The county commissioners have
taken the matter under advisement,
after commenting favorably ON the
enterprise. An answer propably will
be- given the fair boosters on their
return today from llillsboro.
The money appropriated would be
spent by a local committee. charged
with gathering and preparing Luna
county products for exhibition. Range
cattle. fancy dairy stock. horses.
chicken. and other fowls will b.
shown as well as products of earth
tillaee. Hal Kerr has promised to
show his sacred cattle. bred on his
ranch near here. and others have
expressed themselves willing to co
operate in order to make a Luna
county exhibit of which the county
will feel proud.
