This week is busy one for most of
| Wilmington society. Many have out
| of-town guests for the fair and nearly
| everybody is interested in one OF, more of
| the attractions there. OF course the horse
| lovers consider the horse show the best
part of the big show and the dog fanciers
| say the dog show is the best. The serious
| minded folk much prefer the fine exhibits
dealing with community and civic in
terests, and the old-fashioned woman who
goes to the fair just to see her own jam or
Jelly on exhibition is there again this
year. The little people enjoy the display
just as much as the grown-ups and al

to community pride.
