West Florida Fair at
Mariana Be Big Eue7,t

Fair at Mariana, and already most
of the counties embraced in the ter
ritory have signified their intention
of having exhibits at the fair.
The premium list is now on tho
press and will within a few days be
ready for distribution, and it is said
that the prizes offered will be larger
and more varied than ever before.
Among the things coming in for
special attention this year are the
boys pig, corn and peanut clubs and
the girls canning clubs, from all of
which excellent exhibits will be made
and splendid prizes received by the
winners.
A unique and patriotic feature OF
the fair this year is the fact that the
fair association has already given a
hundred dollars to the American Rea
Cross and will give a large percen-
tage of the profits this year to that
organization.

ALL MADE SNUG AT
THE AERO STATION

Every precaution was taken yester-
day at the aeronautic station to pro-
tect tie property there against storm
damage should the predicted hurri-
cane hit this port today. All of the
machines were stored, hangers closed
tightly, small craft stored, and any
loose objects likely to be injured were
placed in safety.
Comparatively little damage was
sustained by the station in other
storms here, as all of the buildings
are unusually sturdy. With the
forewarning of the approaching hur-
ricane, and the sheltered position of
the station, it is expected that little
damage will be sustained should the
storm strike Pensacola.

fair has for some years been regu-

regularly Incorporated and owning
its own buildings and plant and each
fall pulling off perhaps the biggest
fair in Florida and one of the best in
the entire South.
This year President ]. d. Smith,
who has managed the fair since its
organization, rendered his resigna-
ton, which was reluctantly accepted
by the directors of the fair, who then
decided to place the management of
the fair in the hands of a board of
managers to consist of three men.
Messrs. s. A. Daffin, j. NJ. Dillon
and W. Fl. Milton were elected on
this board, Mr.. Milton being named
as secretary and general manager.
The services of S. w. Hiatt, formerly
farm demonstration agent for Jack

North and West Florida were OBJ
tanned as assistant-manager and
through his help and by the co-opera-
