REALIZING DREAM FOR A
PARISH FAIR.

Among the glowing numbers OF our
New Years dream of good things that
might be- accomplished In 1916, we
came near putting ~ among the de-
sirab!es, "a parish fair" but that seem
I'd such a large undertaking In the
midst OF present conditions, that lack.
ng faith, We named d hoped-for civic
club instead And 10, the greater, a
parish fair In on ii fair way towards
accomplishment The pluck and energy
Of snpt. Of Schools. Mr. n. r. Crnmp,
Aas been fred to create parish fair,
aud he has received encouragement
from nearly evrey eae,
To-day. March Is, a meeting will be
held at the court house 10 organize u
parish fair association. and We trust
here will be. representative gather,
ing TO give the enterprise good start.
There will not be great deal Of money
To spend. but this Ia an advantage
rather than the contrary, as II will
automatically prevent extravaganza
and waste, the rocks upon which many
parish fairs have split II will also
keep within bounds present ambitions,
aud tend TO gradual development rather
than TO growth like Joaah's gourd,
lasting but for day,
A friend tells us that the Washing
ton parish fair started In very small
way. and IL now large and adequate
affair. For the first fair small amount
Of subscriptions vas secured, and de.
voted TO The NEST necessary and frugal
expenses, A stable was rented for the
display of live afoek The following
year. the aehooIhouse at Frankiinton
Was used for the show.rooms, and
large stables were built at the rear OF
the campus for the accommodation OF
the animals on exhibition. and during
the remainder of the year is still nth
ICED for the teams and vehicles Of
pupils attending high school,
The fair organization has grown
steadily. and Is now aourishlng, Its
secret OF success IL probably due to It's
no, being hurdened with debt at the
outset. The Same caution applies to
the efforts nov making In West
feiieiana.
