SCHOOL FAIR
Fine Display Of Products and Numerous
Blue and Red Ribbons Given

The fair given by the city schools
Friday was highly creditable exhibit
and one that elected many expressions
OF praise and admiration for the gener.
Gus display of garden products along
with many articles that belonged ex.
clusively to the household side of home
life.
AS the city school building has no
room large enough in which the entire
school can meet, it was found neces-
sary to display the exhibits of the five
rooms in the respective room to which
the child that furnished the exhibit be.
longed.
That condition placed a very per-
picking problem before the judges as
they were forced to make many trips
up and down stairs and from room to
room to determine where the ribbons
should be bestowed. p. V. Beadle and
S. G. Bishop were chosen as judges
and did the best they were able under
the unfavorable conditions. In some
instances exhibits were removed before
premiums were awarded as the exhib-
itors thought their products had been
passed upon. That CO adltion may have
worked injustice in some instances.
There was a fair attendance of town
people who enjoyed the exercises very
much. While all the rendltIons were
good and much enjoyed, the singing of
"When the Frost Is on the Pumpkin
and the Folders in the Shock" was
the most interesting as some of the
children had illustrated it in very
effective way on the blackboar with
chalk drawings.
Mrs. E. B. Cope, Home Demonstra-
ton Agent, was present and gave a
splendid talk. Judge g L. nv.,,tt
ard Rev MS. Jzckson. aIso kcSs C.
M. Atchley. of HarrinTan. each gave
brief, but interesting talks.
One of the most encouraging fea
lures OF the day was the strong evi.
dence that the teachers in our public
school are not contininsk their instruc.
tlon to the narrow c4ntnes of the
books, but are teaching in the truest
sense, in that they are drawing out the
young minds and leading them to
think and reach out fofi information
that Is not found in their 81 School books
but is of such great Importance in
making broad and we'll rounded lives.
1t is evident that the teachers feel that
the books are only the foundation and
that the largest and most useful les.
sons are found IN enla-ging Ithe minds
while teaching the necessary rudiments
found in the books.
As the judges sought NOT TO know
who the exhibitors were, to the end
that their judgement might b. entirely
we dl not get the names of
those who received premiums.
