I RESUME.


iSfactory success all admit and all
are mutually proud. Everyone who
is connected with lis management.
rs well as the general public for lis
patronage. are to be heartily con-
graduated. All know now that il is
Il great asset to Greenbrier Valley.
As Il medium of advertisement of
rrSOuSceS, products and of the
possibilities OF This section of
the State, all know ii is unsurpassed
| Many who did not know ii do know
now that the live stock and farm
/ products of this valley are equal 10
and second TO none in the whole
country. All know what energy
| and executive ability can do in so
short time. All should be CRATE
full for the success Of this year. but
none should be satisfied as TO arolh-
or year. We are not advised as to
plans for next year. In fact we are
safe in saving that no detail has
been maiurrd, but We are equally
safe III saving that We know the
management has in mind Il greater.
broader. and far more comprchcn-
Slvc Fair for nCNl wear than they
had this season. This is but na,ur

from every angle i'll which il may
be considered. Ii is equally truc

age from the general public. Bl
this We do not mean that this was
moi given in its full capacity this
wear. but we do mean that in order
to have a greater and bigger Fair.
the public must have bigger and
greater vision Of future possibilities
and prepare. in the coming year. to
meet them III the measure of future
demands.
We SET the above forth that the
boost for next year may Start now
while the spirit of success is in the
minds Of the people. A start now
means greater things for our coun-
| ~ and our valley in which We take
pride and know that every one else
likewise does. SO much for the
above.
Greebrier county Is one Of the
older counties of the State. For
years her sons and daughters have
gone to distant States to make their
home. To-day her sons and daugh-
ters, and the sons and daughters of
her sons and daughters, may be
found in every State in the Union
and in practically every continent,
from the British Isles to the Orient,
as we'll as in Mexico and South
America. We have n vision for
next summer--a vision of the hos
pitality OF old Grcenbricr going on!
in an invitation to her sons and
daughters in distant States and
countries for Il Home Coming
Month, Home Coming Week, and
a Home Coming Day"
a home coming month, TO visit
The hearth stones of childhood and
childhood scenes; a home coming
week, to meet and greet each other
ut the next Annual Fair; home
coming day TO be focused on a
special day OF that Fair. Grecnbrier
county can moi but do this. We
have faith. We know she will dc
it. She can not do otherwise. Let
the special day be day sci apart
as Il day of inspiration. Let there
be Il speaker Sccured-a man OF
national reputation--a man OF
brains~-iO deliver an address 10
the assembled multitude. To make
plain our meaning, we know OF
none better than DR.. Frank Crane
lie is an editor and speaker OF
the highest order and a man who
always has message for America
by an American.
No difference who the man. ],
could be some son of Grcenbricr in.

The draditiOus and ideals OF our
historic valley is what we want. 4
message that will impress a.
