The Late MFR. Boldt.
The one outstanding figure connect

hotel operation was the late George c.
Boldt, known and loved by the most
universal and distinguished patronage
ever established. Mr.. Boldt was man
who represented the personifcation Of
hospitality The world famous Waldorf
Astoria was conceived by him in vision,
and took shape and materialized under
his personal guidance. He was the
pioneer of modern keeping, and he
taught the world new standards in his
well beloved profession.

GREAT PINNACLE
 MOUNTAIN FAIR
IT WAS A dOoD AND SUCCESS WERE A CREDIT TO THE COM FULL ONE-AVARIOUS EXHIBITS MJTNITY- BOYS AND GIRLS ENTHUSIASTIC.
Byw F. BECK.

The Pinnacle Mountain Fair open ed promptly gon time at Prothro Camp Ground last Thursday. With the stringenqy of the times it was difficult to get up fair, but consid- ering everything, they had a good and successful one. The credit for the fair is largely due to the efforts of some four ar five different persons, including the president, Mir. and Mrs. ]. W. Baker, MT. and Mrs. T. w. Newton, MT. and Mrs. Geo. Prothro and some tyo or three others.
 To write lp he fair without mere ly making a repetition of what 1 have already written about the other fairs will be difficult matter. It is in my home district and I feel that I can curtail Iny description of it with out being accused of sighting it. I did not gel there until late Friday afternoon and everybody was so busy Saturday that it was impossible for me to get the facts I wished. The Masonic lodge met Saturday over the hall in which the fair was held and had such important business to at tend to that it kept all the leading citizens away from attendance except for very short time. I suppose it was arranged to have the fair and lodge at the same time to help out with the attendance. No harm was done by this, but when the time came to decideson fair for next year the adults were not present in sufficient force to make decision advisable, but the children and young people were all enthusiastic for another fair next year and better one.
 A lunch stand run for the benefit of the fair association did a good business and large attendance was out Saturday. In addition to this the people brought baskets of food, which was served on the ground pic nic style and there was an abundance for everybody. Such another friend ly social gathering as we had ii has not been my pleasure to attend in a long time.
 Fred Eberle besides inducing Belle vue school to attend and bring an exhibit of school work, also induced his home folks to get up the only in- dividual farm exhibit displayed at the fair. h was most tastefully ar ranged and shows what an intelligent boy can do to help out with public enterprise when he makes an effort.
