BUTLER COUNTYS BIG
ANNUAL SHOW
Will Throw Open It's Gates
To the World Next Tues
day for Five Big Days,
and Will Be the Greatest
Ever.
Running Races With Lady
Riders, Auto Polo, Big
Automobile Show, Wild
West Performers to Be
Feature Attractions.

Everything points to the list ann
ual Butler County Fair which throws
open it's gates on next Tuesday being
the greatest and most successful the
the big county show has enjoyed in
all its long history. All that seems
needed to make it so now is good
weather The members of the Butler
County Agricultural Society to whom
is intrusted the guidance of the big
fair have done everything that is
possible for human agency to make
it the biggest and greatest ever. Out
side the big annual state fair held
in Columbus it is believed the Butler
County fair will prove the biggest in
the state this year.
Secretary NJ D. Urmston opened
the offices of the board in the court
house Thursday morning and his as
sistants are being kept busy as bees
and working overtime receiving en-
tries and assigning them to the var
ious departments. Mr. Urmston says
he don't believe ever in the history
of the fair before have the entries
been so many the week before the fair
as they are this year Every mail
brings in many more and the local
people seem to be displaying more
interest in the big event than usual
Judging from indications right now
the fruit and farm products displays
will outdo any of those before. In
fact all departments entries are big
ger than ever before.
The finest and biggest sheep pen in
the state was erected during the sum
mer and these will attract many of the
big exhibitors of swine and sheep
Several of the finest herds of cattle
to be shown anywhere will be seer
at the fair this year. Most of the
poultry coops have already been en-.
gagged and the fair board has ordered
large tent erected for the overflow
in this department.
A feature that was lacking last
year and one that caused much dis
appointment by its absence will bt
seen this year. 1t is the automobil,
show. There isn't any doubt about it

Fair Will Be The
Biggest In The State

the attention of the fastest horse
owners from everywhere. The fair
board has loosened up more than usual
for this feature this year. The pur-
ses amount to $570O. The horsemen
say this is more money than has been
offered anywhere in the state this
year. Four harness races will be run
each day.
The girls baking and sewing con-
tests, as well as the boys pig iudg-
ing contests are attracting the atten-
tion of the boys and girls of the
county as never before. Many entries
are in for these contests. The school
exhibits will be the finest ever seen,
judging from the interest being dis
played by thev arious school through
out the county. And Judging from the
entries already in the art hall is 60
ing to be jammed with display room
at premium.
There are several features this
year that will do muca to making a
record breaking attendance. Chief
among these is the big automobile
show and the election of four direct
ors. The election will be held at the
secretary's office en- Wdnesday, and
seems to be attracting more than US
ual attention. The election has given
the fair much free advertising, and
this no doubt will make Wednesdays
crowd much larger than usual and
will benefit the fairs treasury. Then,
too, the box seat sale conducted by
the board last Saturday was the mcst
successful in the history of the far
The boxes brought more money than
ever before, showing che keen inter
est being displayed. This is always
good indication.

THE FIGHTING SPIRIT.

A statement by an Eagle scout
Many a person has proved himself
an utter failure in life because he
lacked the pep and the push that COM
pei success.
Whyf Simply because he hadn't
been brought up to put his shoulder
to the wheel. He lacked that great
virtue so vitality important, so neces-
sary for a successful career-fghting
spirit
One of the objects Of the boy scout
organization is to teach self-reliance
and persistency; to stick to a propo-
sition till it is accomplished; to use
encouragement as an impetus toward
that accomplishment. What finer les
son could there be? The boy scout is
taught to carry his own load without
q murmur, without pulling long
face" or falling by the wayside and to
carry IL with q smile. Each and ev-
cry scout is taught to meet the turn
ing Of fate without a finch.
Though the boy scouts motto is BE
prepared" we might supplement 1T
with still another: Don't give up
till the whistle blows"
Take the average scout, what is
failure to him? He is taught to smile
at defeat, He hits In all the harder,
more determined than before to attain
his goal. He takes pride in this spirit
and climbs the hill under his own
pewer, not under the powers and do
ings Of others. He puts full faith in
himself and builds his castle on the
foundation of persistency. He stands
for the square deal, for all that is
just In life, and In standing for these
principles he stands for what his en-
tire organixataen represents.
