COUNTY FAIR At

Grady county is developing this
year fair ground system which
promises to be. In the next few
years, the blegcst thing OF its kind
IN southwestern Oklahoma and pro-
moters OF the proposition declare
that only the state fair at Oklahoma
City will surpass the Grady County
fair In the next few years. II plans
work out along the line as planned
The start of the proposition was
made shortly after January when
a movement was placed on foot to
have the city purchase with park
bonds, tract OF land east of the
Rock Island track to be used as
fair ground. base ball and athletic
field, city park and a camp for au-
tomobile tourists. In order to secure
money with which to erect a suitable
grand stand, the Hot Stove League
was organized during the winter and
through "Buy-a-Plank" campaign.
about $3,500 was the amount raised
With the purchase of the 40 acres
In question by the city, the Grady
County Park association was or
ganized and contract was entered
into with the city, whereby the park
association secured lease for a
term of years on the property, with
the provision that the association
erect, ut no expense to the city
government, grandstand, fair build
ings, walks, drives etc, making a
suitable plant for the holding of an
annual fair. There was also the pro-
vision that the association must oper-
ate a fair ON the ground thus i'm
proved at least once every IL
months.
The OF stove League turned over
to the Grady County Park associa-
tion the funds it had raised These
funds were used for the purpose OF
building the grand stand. This stand,
which has a seating capacity OF
about 1900 is combination race
track and base ball grond stand 1t
witt the baseball diamond built has
been the home of the Chickasha
Western association team during the
present season, and on this field will
be played the first three games Of
the Western Association champion
ship Of the split season.
An exposition building has been
erected by the park association,
work is to start next Monday on
stock Pavilion, work has started
on the race track and the park asso-
citation has mapped out a. program
which insures that the Grady County
Free fair this fall will be the best
that has ever been staged in the
city.
Other building plans are in the
making and will be carried to COM
pletion during the coming year, the
officials state with the idea of
making the 1922 Grady county fair
bigger and better than ever"

Declares Singing
A Primitive Habit

Harvard University is next year going to
have new department, the school of edu-
cation. AS the training of teachers now
must also necessarily include the training
OF teachers OF music we hear that the inf1u-
ence of the Harvard professors will be ex-
erted in this important field in a new di-
rection.
Or, rather, the impulse will be backward
toward an older theory of instruction. The
Harvard notion is that the music taught in
the public schools of the country has be-
come altogether too technical.
DR.. Davidson, member of the Harvard
faculty and organist in Appleton chapel,
as we'll as head of the university choir, has
been giving his ideas to the Boston Tran
script. They are extremely interesting
ideas, but they upset many of our current
usages DR.. Davidson does not believe in
the early teaching of notes He does not
believe in having certain song written to
order merely to impress a certain interval
on the child'S mind. He doesn't believe in
too much Montessori self-expression
method, when individuality interferes with
the integrity of the rhythm, for example.
He says pointedly:
The most natural approach for any child
to learn music is to sing folksongs. Sing
ing is savage thing. 1t grows up from
primitive times. Anybody can sing 1t is
a natural coordination of mind and body
and is one of the most potent ways of per
sonal, spontaneous expression.
Teach the children to sing songs Train
their ears and don't confuse them BY try
ing to train their eyes at the same time
Let ITEM sing songs and keep on singing
songs-but be sure that the music is good
Delay the teaching of technique until they
have developed a musical sense by singing.
Let them sing these songs for three years
and then place the notes before them. If
they do not get the sight reading it does
not matter because the singing is the
thing which makes them musical If they
get it on the third or fourth time, very
well."-Philadelphia Record.
The Washington herald., 1921-01-23

was a comfortable income each year in
excess of $2yooo,ooo.
There was very little risk upon the part
of Blanc; the keeper of the bank in a
gambling game need not take a risk NJ
Francois, the father, had one Joke upon
the subject that involved pun upon his
own name, which means white" 81 care
not where you put your money" he would
say TO those WHO CHANGED to ask him how
to play. Put it on the red or the black
as you choose, for white always wins"
And NJ. Blanc, the elder, was like the
barkceper who never drank-he was never
known to gambl. in his own casino There
is only one record of his trying his luck
elsewhere, and that proved a costly ex-
Perience.. He and his wife were on a visit
to Wiesbaden. 1t was their custom there
to go for morning stroll, and on one of
these stroils madame complained of the
heat, and requested her husband TO buy
her a parssol Accordingly the two en-
tered a shop and madame selected a para
sol for which NJ. Blanc grumblingly paid
$40, for. while he dealt in millions, he
counted the pennies when they were for
personal expenditures.
When Francois died in 1877 it was with
the knowledge that luck had served him
we'll; he had amassed a fortune estimated
gambling house keeper Of the world and
he had managed to marry his two daugh-
ters into royal families. One became the
wife OF Prince Constantine Radziwell, the
other married Prince Roland Bonapsrte,
and her daughter, whose birth cost her
mothers life, is now Princess George of
Greece, siSter-in-law TO Constantine who
has resumed the throne in Athens-Kan-
sas City Star.
