last but not least the clowns which
always accompany parade
The business interests of the com
nunity also took an active part in the
parade. The Carey Electric company
was represented, the Hartnell and
Bruel garages, and a float represent
ing the Wilmot business men.
he following floats received prizes:
The first prize Of $500 for the best
high school float was awarded to the
Seniors; the first prize of $500 for
the best school float other than the
high school, was awarded the Primary
department from Wilmot; the second
prize of $500 was awarded to the Bas-
sett school; the Royal Neighbors were
awarded the prize Of 5000 for the
best outside float.
The evening entertainment at the
Woodman hall was exceptionally well
patronized. The hall was crowded to
its utmost capacity. The first number
given was a talk by Mr. Stokdyk, state
leader of Boys and Girls clubs. Mr..
Stokdyk spoke on the subject of Mod
ern Education and showed that its
tendencies are toward making school
work more practical. The talk was
followed by two songs by Wilmot's
talented soloist, Arthur Buckley, ac-
companied by Edna Lois. The solos
were rendered exceptionally well in
deed, and were much as was shown by
the exceptional amount of applause.
Mr.. Schroeder managing editor of
the Wisconsin Agriculturist, then
spoke of the necessity of organization
among farmers, and told what the
Farm Bureau is accomplishing along
this line.
Besides the above numbers which
were given, Hazel Lubkeman, Grace
Werve, and Rose Luffler of Kenosha,
gave some evry pretty dances. Among
the dances was "The Boot Dance" and
"A Reckoning Call" After the above
program was given dancing was in
dulged in. One of the special feat
ures of the evening program was the
rafting of the pure bred hog donated
by VIM. Voss. The hog was an ex-
ceptional fine animal and was won by
Fred Hube, of Wilmot.
The Fair committee wishes to ex-
tend it's thanks to the public for its
help in making the Fair such a suc-
cess. 1t is only through cooperation
such as was shown during the Fair
that events of this kind are able to
be carried out. We feel that we owe
a great deal to the people who brought
in their exhibits, to the judges who
SO willingly rendered their services,
and to the boosters of the town who
assisted with the work which had to
be done, to the business men of the
community who so literally donated
prizes and prize money, to the mem
bers of the High school district who
so generously donated eats and last
but not least, to the women and teach
ers whose services meant so much
toward making the Fair a success.
The community at large extend
their thanks to Prof. Ihlenfeldt of the
.. F. H. S. for his absolutely untiring
efforts in putting over the Fair, which
would not have been married through
had it not been for his personal Lead
ership and supervision.
With the Fair such success as it
was, there is no question, considering
the pluck of the community leaders,
that a country fair held at Wilmot
next year would be successful one
Let's get busy for next year, and
whether we have county fair, or not,
let's make the Wilmot Fair Of 1921
the biggest and best event of the sea-
son. We have the right spirited peo-
pie; we have ideal grounds and we
know the people will patronize it.
