NbR1RFERN AIQIPl||zqtA ; fA||k!':. !l!!. TO BE HELD AT PRESCOTT
 OCTOBER Y, IS & 19

Win the War, IS the slogan Whlcn has been adopted by the Northern Arizona Fair, to be held in Prescott on October 17th, 18th and 18th. This will be exemplified by the fact that all prizes in every department 7. will be paid in thrift and war savings stamps. A liberty bond booth will be installed on the grounds, where subscriptions will be taken. Everyone having re- ceived a trophy from overseas of any character whatsoever is requested to assist the Liberty Loan Committee by bringing or sending the same to the Chamber of Commerce office, Prescott. This will form an interesting display for the Liberty bond booth and will assist in obtaining subscriptions. A Y. M. c. A. booth will also be sta tioned on the grounds and a plan of educational work mapped out so that when the next Y. M. c. A. drive is started all will understand thoroughly the work of this organization.
 All carniva} privileges on the Plaza have been turned over to the American Red Cross and there is no question but that hundreds of dollars can be taken in from this entertainment. The labor unions in Prescott have offered to coHstruct and run the dancing paw ilion during the three nights of the fair and ,turn all funds received there from over to the Red Cross.
 Following is the racing program which will be staged during the fair days, under the direction ot Chairman Lester Ruffner. This does not in- clude the ichildren's sports, the men in service program, which is to be in the hands of Captain Ban Horn, or the thrillers which will be staged by the Tom Mix Company; rs.~...
