After all nothing spell success with
a big 8 5urer and better than pull
together with everyone holding hard
toward the goal. The spirit manifest
county wide TO put over fair next
fall that will go up in history as the
best ever is "dee-ight full '-cXcusc
our Roosevelt coinage.
This cheerful spirit seems to be CON
tagious. But nothing is more gingcring
than to keep saying 50 L m live wire
touch me if you want proof of cur
rent. - Everyone now knows electricity
flowing causes induced currents in
nearby wires Every community has
its primary and with enough secondar-
les the air will be fully charged. Turn
on the juice, citizens, let the timer hum
merry tune--we are all live-wires,
tap us and see.-Get the point?
What the fair should not be is easy
to come at-are we not agreed that:
First--It S no time to spend money
without getting good advertising re
turns. The fair should not fail to ap-
peal to the class of people the valley
needs-thinking people, people of grit,
vision and resources.
Second-It should not fail to send
our own people back to their farms
with a new outlook-new ideas, renew
ed determination. 1t should not fail
to be educational and inspirational.
Thirdly all means it should not
fail 10 be days brimming with recre-
alton. The good Lord knows there s
drudgery Il plenty for all, let not the
fair fail to make red letter days in our
calendars-day5 looked back to, bring
ing back some wrinkles of laughter
days told of to children IS children.
