WITH SUCCESS OF
THE COUNTY FAIR

Ira Arnold member of the hoard OF
directors of the Carter county fair
association was in the city today from
his home at Lone Grove, and was pro
ruse in his praise of the recent fair.
q Il am greatly pleased over the sixth
annual fair" remarked Mr.. Arnold,
"and | believe that every citizen of
the county who attended feels the
same way / do about it, OF course
there were many things lacking to
make it perfect but it takes time to
Duild up such an institution and If
the public will be patient they will
find an institution on their hands
some day of which they will be emf
nently proud
The secretary and most of the di-
rectors are attending the state fair at

will elect from among their number
president and select secretary
for the ensuing year.
Before the next fair takes place
there is going to be a lot of improve
ment required at the grounds" re-
marked Mr.. Arnold, the present

hibits."

ly meet next Wednesday at the office

THOUSANDS STARVE
IN NEAR EAST, SAYS
REPORT OF WORKERS

Mrs. Lenore c. Marlin. representing
the Near East Relief is in Ardmore
on her annual visit in the interest
Of her work.
Mrs. Marlin says that in the near
east are two hundred thousand boys
and girls who are hungry. Some Of
them are in orphanages. Some OF
them are in refugee homes. Thousands
Of them are adrift under Gods skies
without shelter. They are the orphan.
ed children in the land OF the Bibles
history.
They are In most part, the children
OF a sturdy farmer race. They are not
unfaithful to the tradition of their
people. For five years crops have
been put in. But for five years there
have been no harvests. The marching
feet OF armies have ruthlessly trod
down the grain. Deportations have
transported people from their wheat
fields; their crops have been destroyed.
They have no grain to ward off
starvation. Their food must come from
those who have in abundance.
Five million bushels of grain will
stand between the people of the near
east and that specter, starvation.
You can only give when you have.
You have an abundance now, for
now is your harvest time.
A contribution OF grain from even
a modest crop will not be missed.

KING TO PLANT
ORCHARD TREES

Felix King who owns an extensive
farm just east of the city besides be-
ing a good farmes and dairyman. is
a firm believer in the theory that
every farm should maintain a good
orchard.
For several years Mr. King bas
maintained n fair sized orchard of
choice trees, but has decided that
there will be money in it for him,
to go into the business on more
extensive scale, therefore he intends
to set out several hundred young
fruit trees this fall which he figures
will be in bearing by the time the
ones he now has will be past further
use.
Mr.. King figures that the average
life of a peach tree in this country,
even when well cared for, will not
exceed fifteen years, for that reason
he advised that all who desire to
maintain bearing orchards, plant
young trees between the old ones
in time to supplant them when they
have outlived their years Of useful
ness.
