The wonder of the romance of America
is still felt by many of the old world.
Two Scotchmen have written to the sec.
retary of the state of Vermont asking
for work and giving their qualifications,
They have been in the war for four years
and undoubtedly have the wander-lust
still in their veins and would like to
make fortune in the land of great OPP.
portunities. They could not vision the
hundreds of idle soldiers in the green
hills who have not yet been provided
with way to earn their bread.-Rut
land News,
If the aforementioned gentlemen
we're like most Seotchmen we have
known they would have just gone aboard
ship and sailed for this land of promise
instead of press-agenting themselves
broadcast throughout various parts of
the United States in the hope of getting
some offers that promised them lucrative
emoluments and not over-mueh effort.
The Scotchmen who have come over to
the United States heretofore have been
ready to take their chances along with
the others and have not been cabling
over for soft berths and much hard cash.
They have not been of the molIycoddle
stuff which these would be adventures
in fairyland seem to be made Of. If
these two fellows wish to try their hand
at "bucking the wilderness" of America
let them come over and stand on their
own feet and not ask for reception

escort them to positions. Scotchmen

the old-time type and not the clinging,

as vehicle to such a puerile plea as

RECOGNITION OF THE PATRIOTIC
AMERICAN WOMEN.

1t is somewhat tardy recognition, but
none the less powerful, which General
Pershing, commander Of the American
expeditionary forces, gives to the women
Of the United States for their part in
the winning of the war. During an in
spection of five evacuation hospitals in
the Rhineland area occupied by the
Americans General Pershing took occa.
sion to say: without doubt America
could not have carried out her part in
the conflict as she did if it had not been
for the willingness and courage of the
nurses and others who came to care for
sick and wounded in France and the 10y
al support of patriotic women at home"
That last phrase of General Pershing's
statement covers a multitude of consid-
crations. The patriotic women at home
were not doing the spectacular and the
Immediately helpful work that the
American women abroad were doing in
tenderly binding up the wounds of the
soldiers and in caring for their material
wants; but they were very essential to
the success of the American war ma.
chine. These patriotic American women
at home worked in many ways. They
contributed to the success of the war by
keeping stiff upper lip though their
sons and husbands were off on the battle
field, by attending to the home cares in
a thoroughly sane manner by conserving
food products when our allies were des-
perately in need of sustenance, by aid
ing in the various war drives during
l0l7-l8 and by contributing hard work
in the Red Cross workrooms and in the
homes preparing articles of wearing ap-
pare or articles to apply to the needs of
wounded and sick soldiers and sailors
Few outside of the immediate circle of
workers in these Red Cross societies
know how fsacrifcingly, how unre-
mittingly, how assduously a large num-
Der of women piled the needle and the
other implements needed in fashioning
the articles which were so urgently de-
manded by the soldiers and sailors. And
were General Pershing to know init
mately of this splendid contribution
which the women at home did toward
winning the war he would give them
even more praise for their devotion, for
their patriotism and for their sacrifice.
The part which some American women
at home played in the war furnished one
Of the finest pages in the history of the
United States participation IN the war.

ODA1
Note the crowded conditions Of the grounds and
buildings and the imperative need of more room and
better arrangement of the buildings.
For lack of room and proper arrangement the Fair
is forced to clutter the front and sides Of the buildings
with unsighty stands and concessions.
The roadways are 50 narrow that it is impossible
to get from one building to another in comfort.
AS now arranged there is no room to beauty
the grounds and buildings with flowers and shrubs.
There are no shady, restul spots where one can sit
and rest.
The buildings originally erected in 1908 were ex-
pected to answer their purpose for five years They
are now in bad repair and inadequate to care for the
growth of exhibits.
The Fair was this year compelled to turn away
exhibits To care for those in the Poultry Building
it was necessary to doubledeck the coops thus de-
stroying much of the beauty of the show. The cat
tie, swine and sheep buildings were entirely made
quate to house the stock that to the Fair, andWe
will have more another year.
The machinery exhibits are badly located. There
is not the right kind ofroom for parking cars New
buildings are needed for new exhibits.
The exhibits as whole this year surpass those
of most Of the large state fairs. At the same time we
are spending less for Improvements than any other
Fair of importance in the United States. The water
sewerage and other comfort facilities are also entirely
inadequate. @t
If the Tr-State Fair is to hold its own and not
90 backward, better facilities must be provided at
once.
Three hundred thousand dollars should be spent
for improvements during the next two years These
improvements should be started Immediately after the
close of the Fair To do this is going to benecessay
to provide for same out of funds other than those re-
ceived from Fair operation.
A special fund must be raised for this purpose
The business interests Of Memphis the city and the
county should provide this fund.
The City Of Memphis has been liberal in provld-
ing funds for civic Improvements The Fair is I'M
questonably one of the city best assets and will fur
nish bountiful returns for all assistance given.
Let's all pull together, properly equip the Fair,
thereby enabling it to fulfill its mission to the fullest
extent. se
