BELIEVES IN COMMUNITY FAIR

Little Rock, Nov. H. (SpecitD = The Community Fair is the thing. It has been given a gI Ieat vogue all over Arkansas this fall. The system is being put into effect in many counties. In Pulaski, for instance, the county was divided into quarters, and four com munity fairs were held, They were promoted and managed by the farm CTS themselves Great rivalry was aroused, among them in the products of the farm and orchard, prizes were offered and there was strong compet- ition among the exhibitors.
 There have been fewer county and district fairs than usual, but this is due to the fact that the people have not yet adjusted themselves to the new economic conditions since the war. The growth of the community fair idea, however, will result in more county and district fairs next year, and even tually, in the course of few years, the idea, of great state fair, nompar- able to the Dallas fair, should be real ized.

 That any nation violating it's terms

 The treaty is declared effectually to prevent the shipment of war supplies to MeA1cO ana Nnllld, diu dlSo III lhe absence of special arrangements, to the newly created status of Central Europe. to the enlarged countries in the Balkans, and to Latin American countries other than Mexico.
 Although Spain is s2:d to have sign ed the treaty it was said that the ship ment from Spain of war munitions to Mexico would make that nation ineli- gible for membership in the League of Nations. and that, therefore, Spain is unlikely to engage in such traffic. the more so as the first organization of the in it.
