their authenticity. Their readers are

lieves them of all doubt. The skeptt-

"Our teachers must exercise a fine

Perhaps the public schools can help to
keep a sane balance in the public mind

And now comes the report
that a town in the lower end of
the county is planning to have
a county fair. The town re-
ported to have this idea is a
wide awake little place, and
her commercial organization is
doing things. According to
reports they have a fine site
picked out and are working
quietly perfecting plans so that
they may get the thing to going
before Maryville announces
her fair.
Anyway, the county will
have a fair, and the town that
gets the lead will have the ad-
vantage.
Let's have two fairs, rather
than none.
