NO STATE FAIR THIS YEAR.
Postponed on Account Of inHuonza,
Successful Fair Impossible.
Editor Keowee Courier,

State Fair announce ftfih ht there casl
be no fair held this fall. Health con
ditions throughout the State caused
the State Board OF Health, several
weeks ago, to postpone indefinitely
the fair from the original dates,
October % to November 1st, and 1t Is
now deemed inadvisable to attempt
to hold the fair at this late date.
Also, the present congested condition
OF transportation companies is such
as to make tho immediate delivery
Of exhibits very uncertain. Further,
the general unrest Of the people on
account OF war conditions and press
Ing labor shortage, would make at
tendance upon the fair decidedly
problematical.
Because of these reasons the men,
bers Of the executive committee have
decided to hold no fair for the year
1918, and trust that this decision
will meet with the approval of the
exhibitors and the public generally.
From present indications, the war
Will soon come to a successful con-
clusion, and no effort will be spared
to make the 1919 fair the greatest
in the history OF the society.

Editor Keowee Courier:
/ am having a comrade type this
letter for me to express my thanks
for the care and kindness shown US,
not only here, but in all the Y. M. C.
A. camps where our regiment has
been quartered. There is nothing
they have not done to help make US
cheerful and comfortable.
The sports and fine entertainments
and the educational classes, free
library books, magazines, writing
materials, writing and taking care OF
telegraph messages, buying supplies
for us when we cannot get out Of the
camp--the comforting talks, entirely
without ropaganda,-the free giving
Of all these things has won the re-
spect and gratitude OF every man In
the regiment.
But perhaps one OF the finest SER
vice expressions Is that OF caring for
the relatives OF men who come, may
be, thousand miles to see them and
bid them goodbye. Many arrive iii
and without money, and these are
cared FOR In ways too numerous to
detail here. And when we get aboard
tho transport for "over there"lI un-
derstand that the Y. NJ. g. A. go with
us to minister to us, and remain with
us even In the trench fighting,
1t is the bright spot in our daily
lives as soldiers, and feel that we
cannot say too okmuch for this splen-
did, helpful organization. IF you have
