COUNTY FAIR GOOD
Exhibits Splendid and Great
Interest Is Shown

The big annual Cheyenne coun-
ty fair held here last week will
go on record as being one of the
best that has been held in years.
The agricultural exhibits, though
not as numerous as in years gone
by. were exceptionally fine and
OF good quality, the display Of
vegetables and fruits were in a
class by them selves and would
be hard to beat no matter where
you went. The stock show re-
vealed the fact that there are
more purebred and registered
animals in the county than was
anticipated and only goes to show
that our rural friends are fast
coming to the front in the way
of getting into pureblood stock
raising.
In the art department of the
exhibit hall was found the work
of our grade and high schools
located in different towns of the
county which was indeed surpris-
ing. The work by the scholars
of the manual training depart
ments were very interesting and
shows that there is some mighty
hard work going on there on the
part of the instructors, and are
of a credit to any school in the
state. The drawings exhibited
by the grade schools deserve a
little praise also as they were the
best that has ever been display
ed in the hall. In the domestic
department we saw some of the
incest articles prepared by the
ladies of the county consisting of
fruits, pickles, preserves, bread,
pies. cakes and goodness only
knows what else, that were in
deed pleasing to the eye.
The rodeo and amusement pro-
gram is said to have been far bet
ter than anything ever given be.
fore on the grounds, and the
people in general were more sat-
isfied. The races were all good
ones and the bucking horses are
said to be the best we have had.
Taking every ything as a whole,
the fair was a great success So
cia!Iy- financially, we are in no
position to say at this time. al
we have heard it said
the gate receipts went over the
top as the attendance was much
better than a year ago.

the Ottawa mentor has continuously
drilled his men in preparation for tina
final tilt. They showed up fairly well
in shooting baskets, but If they DOM
work any better than they did in other

The great experiment was at hand Labor was
to settle the question, under these most adverse
conditions, whether it successfully could assume
responsibility for capitals investment.
What we did, and how we did it, is matter Of
history today. All the world looked on as we
fought to salvage the craft, to work it off the
rocks of bankruptcy and into safe harbor. 1t
has been long pull and hard one but the
outlook is now most promising.
Men and Management have already here
produced added net income of $l60oO000 per
annum, which has saved P. r. T. to its owners,
while bankruptcy or reorganization has befallen
almost every other similarly situated property.
Men and Management have here proven the
ability of labor to accept responsibility and, in
cooperation with management produce results
heretofore considered impossible of accomplish
ment.
We have come long way to reach this point.
and we would be something less than human if
we did not feel happy and proud of our
achievement.
Safeguarding the interests of the public, the
owners and the employees with fairness to each
and favoritism to none, has been at times. a
most difficult task 1t is nevertheless true, that
the public has now here the best service known
for the money paid. The owners investments has
been saved, and the ability to earn a return
