The Boy Scout tents caught the
eye Immediately on coming out of the
main building A large tent was
also occupied by Junior clubs of boys
and girls of the county, in charge of
Wakelin McNeel, county secretary of
the Y. M. c.. A. There was a 'splen-
did display of garden truck and live
stock. Under the able direction of
Mr. McNeel, the county Y NJ C. A.
has organized many boys and girls
clubs. Outside of the show and au-
tomobile tents, the Junior department
so styled-had the largest tent on
the grounds. Calves, ponies, poultry,
needlework of girls, were exhibited

In this tent there were also displays
and demonstrations by the various
canning clubs of the county, and the

out valuable information. The tent
was well supplied with comfortable

it delightful place to rest.

formation was given to dairy men.

The first real automobile show ever
connected with the Marathon County

had car on exhibition. The good
points of each machine were talked
by representatives.
The poultry show was immense. 1t

ally devoted to it, but an extra tent
as well to take care of all the en-
tries.
