FRED STEELE PUTS ONE OVER

Grahamtes, with the balance of

Steele's racing stables. Mr.. Steele,
for number of years. has formed
the habit of putting one across sim
liar to that tsunt at the local race
track the other day. when his mare.

dollar purse. The record of q Taze-
well county man should serve to
create renewed interest by Tazeweri

no doubt will. We have alwavs
thought that the two fairs ought to
be combined any way and merged
into "The Greater Mercer-Tazewell

practically eliminated and 1t would
be hummer if Mercer and Tazewel
could get together and pull their an

ago. Many there be many another
such gathering as this.
