at The suggestion of Mrs. Cory,> they
will be asked to contribute to the es-
tablishing of ''rest room where
mothers may leave children, on the
payment OF small sum, while the
little ones take nap or the mothers
visit the fair. AT Timonium this rest
room was a most successful feature,

The premium list will, of course, be
sent over the County as soon as it has
been arranged, and the contest among

take shape. The size Of the prize of
fered, and the opportunity of the sue
cessful Club to make so large an addi-
ton to the Scholarship fund, is with
out parallel in the history of the County
Fair, of Upper Marlboro. Certainly
everyone should take an active interest
in this Fair, and lift it to the high
place now taken by the Rockville Fair.
1t means hard work, and work of many,
not few faithful women who have
shouldered the work with unselfshness
that stopped at nothing. Every wom-
an should feel it her opportunj ty to
take her place in the scheme of things
right here at her owa home County
seat and it's neighborhood.
The next meeting of the Club will
be held at the home of Mrs. VIM. S.
Hill on the third Tuesday in June.
