CLOPTON COMMUNITY FAIR
A GREAT SUCCESS
Splendid Exhibit of Livestock.
Poultry, Garden, Farm and Orch
ard PrOducts-People Present
From All Parts Of the County
Weather Conditions Perfect.

The first exhibition Of the Clopton
community fair, given on the school
campus there last Friday was a most
gratifying success to the several pro-
gressive and public spirited citizens
Of the community who had the fair
in charge, as we'll as TO the people Of
that community and to various 9TH
Ell communities Ia the county who
had the pleasure of seeing it. The
agricultural display was sufficient
proof of the response being made
throughout the county to the presi-
dent when last spring he sent to this
and other counties of the south the
request that they arrange to feed
themselves and thus permit food
grown elsewhere to go to feed our
allies in Europe.
For several days previous it seemed
that the dust, which had been accu-
mutating in the road for many weeks,
would prevent people from Coving-
ton and other portions Of the coun-
tn from attending, but the fates
seemed to favor the fair managers,
a timely rain falling on the night
previous, settling the dust and as
the sun shone brightly all day the
weather conditions were ideal. The
gate receipts indicated an attendance
Of between 700 and 800 people.
The entries in farm and garden
and orchard products, of cattle of va
rious breeds. hogs, poultry ETC., were
gratifying in numbers and splendid IN
quality-in fact as good as that OF
any county fair. The exhibits Of the
school and that of women's hand
work were especially good and many
of them worthy Of especial mention.
The exhibition of canned fruits, vege
tables, etc, would have done credit to
any county fair.
The good part Of the whole thing,
too, is that the gate receipts went
for school benefit, the only GLORY"
the various exhibitors receiving, be- !
ing the qualification If having their
exhibits blue ribboned.
The farmers of the Clopton COM
munity are among the most progress
siye and prosperous in the county.
They live in commodious and comfort /
able houses, diversifying their crops,
have automobiles and other vehicles, I
GOOD stock etc, and above all, good
church and school.
The dav was time for SOCIAL gath
ering. People carried their dinner and
those who did not had opportunity of
all they wanted from the
well-provided lunch stand on the
There was also lemonade Z
and other soft drinks in abundance.
An attractive feature of the after
noon was the games Of basket ball
between Brighton High School and
The Byars- Hall High School, the de-
tail and result of which are given in
another column. The premium list is
also given in another column.

THE COLORED FAIR

The three days fair which was held
in Covington on the Is. 10 and goth
inst. under the management of L. M.
White, Gresham, Burrell and EAlst0n
was in the main a success.
Many housewives and gardens with
home and garden products added ma
terially to the domestic science and
art departments.
Racing among the boys, riding and
driving If horses were pleasant fea-
lures which made the occasion worth
while.
The speech Of Rev. Dir. w. I. YER
non was listened to with marked at
tention, and it was thought that his
advice was timely and worthy of con-
sideration.
The music by Kortrecht High School
band Of Memphis was all that could
be hoped for from the "boy band"
Inclement weather and an open
campus worked a hardship on the
managers, but they are, all things
being considered, very well satisfied
with the results.
