Women are preparing to take the
places of men in almost every line OF
work. A New York corporation, whose
clerical force had been depleted by the
call to arms, advertised for fifty in

a week. Ten thousand letters were re-
ceived from as many women. The ages
ranged from high school girls to grand
mothers. The best papers In the test

!. LOCAL COMMENT

The cleanest fair we have ever had
in Marshall county with the best en-
tertainment program and exhibits al
most up to maximum in all lines and
establishing new records in some lines
came to close this week with record
breaking attendance and receipts All
in ALL weather and roads included, 1t
was the best fair we have ever had.
The band arose to concert music
class and was the big hit of the pro-
gram winning prolonged applause
every day. The free show and the bal
loon ascension We're a success in every
way and the fair management has
learned that fire works are not needed
to draw a crowd and that even the an
cient Morse race has been RELOCATED to
second place.
There was improvement. too, in the
foods furnished and class Of conces
sions licensed. The absence or dimnu =
ton of loud smelling hot dog" kitch~
ems and lunch counters managed by q
class of hucksters more or less indif.
ferent to dirt was agrecably noticeable
and the women's societies furnishing
wholesome, clean home cooked foods
filled the crowds needs with far great
err satisfaction. The shows that might
not be called bad but certainly coarse
were noticeably absent and likewise
the petty or shady devices for frisk-
ing small change away from green
horns are growing less but they could
all be dispensed with profit to the
fair. The Marshall county fair is
growing into what it should be. a grand
exposition and great big family picnic
for all of Marshall county and four OF
five counties around
The toilet facilities have improved
immensely but the closet between ths
two merchants exhibit halls should be
connected with the sewer or removed
It was something fierce.

the hand Is playing should be stopped.
II the county fair Is going TO furnish
u high class musical entertainment and
everybody hopes that 1t will, the same
silence should be maintained by the
audience that Is expected In a concert
hail. Hucksters can do the same amount
of business without calling their wares.
If they would wear white coats ana
caps their silent advertisement would
bring more business than their voices
and they would not be considered such
a nuisance.
The automobile exhibit this year
was one of the leading attractions be-
cause of the mammoth tent and excel
lent display it afforded. The time has
arrived for a permanent hall for the
auto show. Many towns now make an
annual feature of their auto shows IN
dependently of all other attractions, but
it never would be possible to gather
the crowds that come to the county
fair The tent this year cost exhibitors
s225 and it will be gone tomorrow.
An annual cost of $500 would amortize
a $4,000 building. If the Marshalltown
Club wanted an auditorium in the form
of a frame tabernacle the plans could
be amplifled and one section used Tor
implements and further displays ~
merchandise and portion of the capt.
tai stock taken by the club upon an
arrangement that would give the CLUB
control of the building outside of the
week Of the fair. 1t would be possible
to heat such a building and hold an
auto show in the early spring and even
a winter carnival, If desired. Our eX-
hibit halls at the fair have all been
built on too small plan. None OF
us have had the vision to see what the
county fair would become and the end
to it's development is not yet here.
The Times Republican has not given
the personal and careful investigation
OF the proposed street lighting contract
that has been given to public utility
franchises in the past, but its publish
ers have confidence in the present
council and their representations VIII
not be questioned. If they are to buy
electricity for street lighting at rate
of 8 cents per k. W. h. it Is a very fail
rate and would not Justify the invest
