SUMTER FAIR ID
 OPEN NOVEMBER Z
Preparations for Fair Have Been Under Way Since
 Early in Spring

Livingston, October 3o.-(speciaL) With only three days remaining until Sumter county's first general fair will be thrown open to the public in spection. The tents and other equipment are in place. and every thing indicates a greater success than even the optimistic expected at the beginning. The fair will begin Wednesday. November 2. and continue through November B.
 Since early last spring work has been in progress preparatory for this fair, and President Philip Willing ham says that everything points to every community in the county being well represented, both from the standpoint of exhibits and attend arce. Secretary W. H. Coleman and County Agent R. G. Arnold have been the busiest men in Sumter county for the last several weeks working on the fair.
 Two Distinct Features
 In at least two distinct features 1t will be unlike most other county fairs In Alabama. The exhibits will be placed in tents located in the streets around the courthouse, and no admission fees will be charged. The expenses of the fair are being borne by the people of the county by public subscription, each community sub scribing its quota on basis similar to the bond issue drives, Twelve big tents have been secured from the Alabama Mississippi fair at Meridian, and the indications are that these tents will, be well filled with the live stock, field crop, household and other products of the county.
 Professor Galloway, county super intendent of education, is co.operat- ing to the fullest extent. and the teachers of the county are required to bring their pupils to the fair in the school trucks and otherwise, thereby baking It thoroughly educa- tional. The 40 pig club boys with their pigs will form an important part of the fair, and compete for a number of large prizes, the lowest of which Is $5.
 In tho poultry departmen nice prizes will be offered. and to take care of the anticipated exhibits 100
