CHILD WELFARE EXHIBIT
AT THE TRl-STATE FAIR
One OF the Most interesting New Fea
lures to Be Found at the Great
Exposition.

The Memphis Parent Teachers as
ISOLATION, the Department OF Educa.
ton of the Tennessee Federated clubs,
together with the Woman,s Depart
ment of the fair are cooperating in
making the Child's Welfare exhibit in
the Woman's Building, a feature OF
especial interest and decided value.
Mrs. Sam Phillips will serve as
chairman for the Parent-Teachers' as
ISOLATION committee. MRS. L. A..
Thornton, as chairman of the Wo-
mans Department, and Mrs. Claude
D Sullivan, as chairman for the Fed
Grated clubs. Each of these commit
tees will add some distinct feature Of
interest to the exhibit.
The morning hours will be devoted
to talks and demonstrations on "Baby
Care" by graduated nurses, who will
have a complete exhibit of baby's
needs, while the afternoon hours will
be devoted to talks on "Baby Care"
by experienced physicians The value
of the department will be greatly en-
HANGED through the cooperation of
the National Child Welfare associa-
ton, which will send to the fair from
New York, the National Child Wei
fare exhibit, which was shown at the
San Francisco-Pa Exposition.
This is the most elaborate and COM
plete Childs Welfare exhibit ever
gotten together, and will occupy the
entire second floor of the Woman'G

COMMUNITY CLUB EXHIBITS
Ono Of the Striking Features of the
'fri-state Fair VIII Be Found In
Womah's Building.

Visitors to the 1915 Tri-State Fair
carried home some new ideas as to
thes possibilities of Community Club
work in rural communities. One cor
ner Of the Woman's Building was
given over to exhibits of the work of
the Shelby County Community clubs,
organized through the Woman's De-
partment of the Memphis Bureau of
Farm Development. The exhibits
from these clubs were of character
to Immediately attract attention, in
fact the entire display was something
new and unique in the way of fair
exhibits, and to use phrase of the
day, Immediately caught on" Dur
ing the past twelve months the Com
munity Club work in the Memphis ter
ritory has grown and developed be-
yond the most sanguine expectations.
New clubs have been organized. New
lines Of work have been undertaken
New fields of opportunity have been
discovered. The idea has spread to
such an extent that the biggest fea-
ture Of this years fair, to be held
from Sept. % to 20, will probably be
the Community Club exhibits. To
make these exhibits of the greatest
value, demonstrations will be given
each day showing how to carry out
the various club activities
One whole building will be set aside
for the Tri-State Community Clubs,
organized by the Memphis Bureau Of
Farm Development, while half Of the
larger Woman's Building will be given
over to exhibits from clubs organized
by state agents Of home economics IN
Tennessee, Arkansas and Mississippi.
Particular stress is going to be laid
on homemade labor-saying devices,
and the exhibit o. these devices is
sure to prove particularly interesting.

other local forces that could be more
readily whipped into shape for pre-
pairing the character of exhibits that
would give the most stimulus to tho

Secretary Fuller, OF the Tri-State
Fair, then placed the plans of the
government before the state colleges
of agriculture of the tri.states. These
plans immc lately met with the hear
ty cooperation of the Tennessee and
Arkansas colleges, and for weeks the
forces of the two colleges cooperating
with the extension departments have
been busy preparing most wonderful
exhibits for the Tri-State Fair, to be
held from September % to 20 Never

character of the ones now being pre-
pared The heads of these institutions
realize the Importance of their mis-
sion at this particular time, and are
making splendid plans to bring mes
sage of great instructive value 20
visitors to the fairs, and through
these to the people back home. This
message, however, is going to be Of
such great value that it behoovea
every resident Of the three states,
within days travel of Memphis, to
visit the fair and receive this message
first hand. Food is going to win the
present great struggle in Europe and
America has got to furnish that food
so those who do not volunteer in the
military army can do their bit by doing
their part to further the government
food conservation plans as outlined In
these fair exhibits.

ONE weeks ago A. l.. Sponsler,
- president Of the American AS
ISOLATION of Fairs, in company
with large number of the state fair
managers, visited Washington to Of
fer the service of the fairs to Food
Administrator Hoover in furthering
the government food preparedness
and conservation movement, and for
the further purpose of interesting gov
eminent officials in the idea long
cherished by some of the more prom
inent fair managers of having govern
ment exhibits at the state fairs.
The fair representatives pointed out
to President Wilson, Secretary Hous-
ton, Mr.. Hoover and other officials
the srAeQdid opportunities the fairs Of
fered for getting into personal toucn
with the producers of the country.
That the combined attendance of the
state fairs and livestock expositions
is something like 100000 people, all
more or less directly interested in ag-
riculture and stock raising and all
eager to learn of the governments
plans and aid in putting them into
practice.
The Washington officials were
quick to recognize the advantages of
any plan of work in connection with
the fairs and prompt to grasp the OPP
portunity.
Mr.. Hoover, the Government Food
Administrator, was highly enthusiast
tic and requested the fairs to appoint
committee to stop in Washington
for time and assist in working out
some plans by which the fairs could
give the greatest stimulus to the plans
being worked out largely under Mr..
Hooyer's supervision.
First it was proposed to prepare
general government exhibit to be sent
out over the more prominent fair
circuits. Later. owing to the short
time before the opening of the fair

nation has been needed, and for the
first time in history the south as a

MILLION DOLLARS WORTH OF ANIMALS
WILL BE. SHOWN AT THE TRl-STATE FAIR

A combination of circumstances is
causing the South to forge rapidly
ahead in stock raising. The first
number of the combination to call at
tention to the possibilities of live
stock growing in the South was the
splendid live stock exhibitS at some
Of the Southern fairs, in which the
Memphis Fair was the real pioneer.
These exhibits served to interest the
public generally in good live stock,
then the boil weevil, the second num-
Der Of the combination, began to
wend its way eastward across the
Southern United States, leaving de-
vastation in its wake, and 1t became
necessary, for the time being at least,
to quit cotton farming and look to
other means for employing the land.
Live stock growing was profitable
in the West and North. Why not in
the South? All of the forces at work
attempting to solve the boil weevil
problem began to advocate livestock
growing. The time was particularly
opportune to make venture of this
kind successful. The demand for live
stock for home and foreign consump-
tion was exceeding the supply, the
open cattle ranges of the West were
rapidly ceasing to exist, prices were
steadily on the increase. Then the
European war broke, sending prices
soaring, and the end is not yet So
those in the South who started right in
live stock growing industry are today
reaping a rich harvest. No one

SPEED KINGS WILL RACE

Automobile racing has taken such
hold on the American public that
"The King of Sports" has become a
regular feature of the large state fairs
and is proving decidedly the best
drawing card from a sport standpoint.
Alex Sloan, the premier promoter Of
auto races on dirt tracks, has con-
hacted with the Tri-State Fair to
handle this feature of the fair. Mr..
Sloan Is In touch with, and has the
confidence Of more sensational driv-
ers than any other man in America,
and is busy booking the entry of
some real stars for the auto races,
which will be held on the last day of
the fair, Saturday, Sept. 20.
Art Klein, one Of the idols Of the
big speedways, who deserted the dust
less oyals this year for the dirt track
racing, along with Barney Oldfield and
Relph DePalma, was the first big
speed pilot to send in his entry, and
in securing this entry, Mr.. Sloan has
made a ten strike, as Klein Is one of
the most spectacular drivers in the
racing game today. One of Klein's
most remarkable feats, and one which
stands without parallel in the
racing game. was his performance at
the opening Of the Cincinnati speed
day, when he finished two cars in one
event. Klein first finished Crawford
IN fifth place, then taking KIeinart,
which was being piloted by Otto

been liberal education to visitors, af-
fording them an opportunity for per-

up-to-date machinery. These displays
therefore have been of mutual bene-
fit to buyer and seller, and a most
valuable feature of the fair. More

ri0r of the various exhibit buildings
this year The plan and scope of the
exhibits in nearly every department
has received a general overhauling
since the last fair necessitating
changes in the buildings in order to
show the new exhibits. These changes
are of character that wiz add great
ly to the attractiveness of the dis
plays. New touches have been added
here and there, and the general plan
will undoubtedly meet with approval
An addition to the agricultural de-
partment, which is expected to prove
a most pleasing and useful one, Is the
large number of charts that will &C
company the exhibits and the com.
plete manner in which the exhibits
will be labeled.
Another addition, which will be a
great improvement, is the erection OF
Live Stock Pavilion, in which to
Judge the cattle. This is large enough
to judge three or four rings at time,
and has ample seating capacity to
take care of the large crowds who
usually watch the Judging with in

Fully twice as much stock will be
on display this year as in former
years, and this Judging pavilion will
prove great convenience, both to ex.

cause visitors are Interested in what

exhibits. The premiums offered this
year for the fair, to be held from Sep
TENDER % to 20, are more attractive
than ever before, and the inquiries
and. entries being received warrant
the statement that all previous shows
will be excelled In both the number
and quality of cattle, sheep and hoga

Of sheep and hogs, wiz meet at Mem

part of the expense of preparing the
exhibits. The Tennessee and Arkan-
sas colleges responded in a most en-
thusiastic manner, and during the sum-
mer, in cooperation with the U. s.
