Indian Fair Was Good

The Red Lake Indian fair which took
place last week was one Of the best
agricultural shows to ever take place
on the Red Lake reservation. -
The exhibit of soil products was ex-
ceptionally good and the stock show
was the best ever. The exhibits of the
schools were interesting, all the schools
of the reservation being represented
and feature of the fair was the
booths OF the Indian farmers clubs, six
clubs being represented by well ar
ranged booths.
The sports program was exceptional
" good. On Tuesday, Bemidji day, an
interesting ball game took place and a
wrestling match also proved to be an
interesting feature A tug-of-war,
lacrosse game and horse races also
proved interesting. As speciality sew
eral Indians decorated with war paints
danced before the grand stand. Sev-
eral Bemidji citizens autoed to Red
Lake to attend the fair on Bemidji
day. On Wednesday a large number of
Gonyick citizens accompanied by the
village band OF that place, made trip
to the fair and enlivened the fair.
The exhibits at the Red Lake fair
are becoming better and more interest
ing each year. The Indians are becom-
ing better farmers and the exhibits of
soil products are exceptionally good,
but they also have other features to
their fair, such as huntingcraft ex-
hibits and the Indian games which
prove real attractions for the outsiders
who may visit their fair. The Indians
are taking keen interest in agricul-
ture and are now keen competitors for
the white farmer when it comes to
producing soil Enthusiastically Sen
