FFealdent BENSON explained that the
increase of $500 or more in the in
debtedness since 1915 was due TO the
cancellation of the fair the past two
wears, by order of the state board of
health, after large expenses had been
incurred
On motion Of H. d. Walker that all
Who favored continuing the fair stand,
all tle stockholders rose to their feet
Discussion of what should be the pol
ley of the fair was then begun by f.
d. +. Stowe.

LETTER FROM TRACY H. BLACK
Dear Friends,
 1 have heard from many of

 you and this I appreciate very much. Letters form the only link with the fighters past life.
 Eagerly every sailor waits and the gladness or sorrow of a week may depend on a bit of scribbled paper. 'Tis true that l haven't been on the water very much, but to see how glad a sailor is made when he hears from home or some friend while still in his own country, proves that letter has a real value on the high seas or abroad. When companies are lined up for the distribution of the mail, it is noticed that some receive great quantities of mail while some never get any at all. Of course this is embarrassing for anyone, and makes him feel as though he is outclassed.
 1 have been in the Navy near ly five months and have seen and observed quite a few things many more than l can write, but will give a brief view of my eX- periences. On the 7th day of December l enlisted at Little Rock and from there 1 was sent to the naval training station at Great Lakes, III. 1 found Great Lakes to be more homely than l expected, at the same time many things were entirely new to me. The worse thing that 1 found to contend with was the cold. l think this Is the cause of me having meningitis. A great num- Der of boys suffered from this. and the greater number from the South. Eighty per cent of these survived while some were left in critical conditions.
 The medical attention through out the station seemed to be good. We had plenty of cloth ing. and plenty to eat and most of the time we had comfortable quarters. Our first training was drilling, and this lasted about 3 weeks and from then on we worked-most of the time show cling snow and coal.
 Our drilling was done on the inside of a drill hall, which was more comfortable than at times. our barracks. We were never rushed through our work, neith- CT were we ever given more work than we could do. Seven hours per Jay is as much as we ever putin.
 We seamen were granted 12 hours liberty per week, either on Saturday or Sunday afternoon. Many of us spent this time at the different clubs which are provided in Chicago and the sur rounding towns about Great Lakes, while some after forming acquaintances, visited homes. Many Of Us went to church in town when opportunity offered itself. The sailors are never without some place to go to and are always met with a hearty welcome.
 The clubs are doing great good. They furnish most every kind of amusement, and are highly appreciated by the sol diers and sailors. For the sail ors, soldiers, and myself. 1 wish to thank those who have already given aid to this work. 1 know some who have already done so and l can assure you that you are certainly remembered by me.
 The Red Cross holds a very, very warm place in the hearts of the sailors. This organization has done more in donating cloth ing supplies than any other. The
