Villas CO. FAIR ON SEPT. HIPS
PLAN BIGGER AND BETTER FAIR
FOR 1923-PREMIuM LIST
SOON PUBLISHED

1t is not too early for every farmer
in Villas County to start planning for
his exhibit at the county fair which
will be held. September 11-12-13 this
year. The premium list will be larger
than ever and there is hardly any
farm resident but whom can if they
try save or prepare something from
their crop that will add to the display
and stand a good chance of winning
some of the money prizes in those
classes. Samples of grains, grasses,
and all farm or garden vegetables pro
ducts will be sufficiently ripened in
time to show and as far as that goes,
farmers who are wise to the game
will put out special effort, in the
way of soil preparation, and care of
the fair exhibit plot Remember that
the fair is maintained especially in
the interests of the farmers and while
the fair officials will do everything
in their power to help make the fair
a success yet in the end it really de-
ponds. upon the farmers themselves
who by their efforts in the early part
of the season, later supply the mater
ial for the displays that every year
attract attention and admiration
from the attendance 1t is at the fair
that the farm and its owner or opera
tor is freely acknowledged in his right
full station of being one of the most
important personages of the commun
ity, by the merchant, banker and air
other town residents, as the value of
the product whether of livestock or
field, is brought to the close. notice of
the men and women who may occupy
other positions on the stage of life
quite as useful perhaps, but who after
all in every instance are in some way
very dependent upon the farmer and
his success. Every one should cooper
ate in making the Villas county fair
of 1928 the best yet and the increas
ing interest shown each year of the
past is evidence that it will be.
In addition to larger fair in every
respect, the fair officers will also furn
ish larger list of amusement attrac
tions, two of which have now been
signed as noted, but there will be
others added to the list and everyone
can be assured at this time that the
entire three days will be very. good
ones to snGad at the county fair
grounds Is Eagle River. Lets Co.
Two special attractions have already
been booked for the coming Villas
county fair to be held September II,
IL and 1S this year. The leading one
will be the Vierras Quintette, an
Hawaiian organization Of highest
order, featuring Hawaiian music, sing
| ing, dancing and special acts. Their
contract calls for a five-hour perform
ance each day, which will include
their special act, and Hawaiian mus
ic during other, features of the fair
The other attraction is Olivette,
champion lady bag puncher, juggler
and slack wire performer. Her pro-
gram includes novelty acts in addition
to these mentioned. The amusement
committee of the fair association
feels that it has secured two especial
| ly good entertainment numbers in the
above and is on the lookout for more
attractions which will be announced
as soon as booked.

IECIONNAIRES PLAN NEW HALL
AMERICAN LEGION HAS BANQUET
FOLLOWED BY DISCUSSION OF
Bull DING NEW HALL


Following. installation of officers of
the American Legion, Monday night,
the boys enjoyed banquet at the
Hotel Commercial for which they had
arranged and to which a number of
the business men of town were asked
and attended. At 900 p. m. the army
of occupation some forty strong, with
a number of ladies to give more tone
to the. occasion, took their positions
in front Of the we'll fortified enemy
in the dining room and after Rev. w
J. Davies, as Chaplain, had made the
usual appropriate remarks, the battle
of the banquet table began. For some
time there was fierce rattle of dish
es,- knives and forks that might have
been compared with the rattle Of mus
kerry fire, only that nobody had any
time to make comparisons. For once,
the Legion and it's friends were bad
~ defeated as they hardly made a
dentsin the supply of rations prepared
T by Quartermasters Mr.. and Mrs. Sis
son. After Mike Cypress had eaten all
the olives, on the table we happened
to sit at, cigars were passed and as
rule, lit, then Edmund Drager speak
ing for the Legion. boys, briefly men
toned its aims, and one in particular
that the local post has in view. That
consists of a desire to fill a place in
the community Of usefulness and help
in civic progress and that just now
it seemed to the Legion that the most
important thing was a Legion Club
room building which at the same time
could be used for all kinds of commun
ity or social meetings. He said that
different business men of the town
had been invited for the purpose of
getting expressions from them as to
the general sentiment toward such a
proposition if it should be undertaken
Messrs. Davies, Higgins Wiegand
IS Cypress and other present voiced what
is no doubt the prevailing sentiment
in town that Eagle River is in urgent
need of just such a building as is
contemplated by the Legion and that
it was an assured thing that the enter
prise would receive just as much
support and financial aid as was pos
sible to give it, not only as mark of
respect. due to the. Legion, but because
of fine recent destruction of the only
public building where gatherings of
a social nature could be held and
which makes it very necessary that
something suitable be provided as
soon as possible
Many towns cities and in some in
stances counties presented their Amer
lean Legion with suitable meeting
quarters after the war and it would
have been quite appropriate. had II
been done by Villas ounty. Probably
the reason why it was not done was
because of the strain felt by every
taxpayer at that time and not because
of any lack of true appreciation Of
what the returned soldiers had done
for those who stayed at home Fol
that reason, we belieTe that the lie
gion will if it decides to put up club
:. room building designed also for the
use of the general public that it will
receive generous support rather than
otherwise.

He comes of a race of preachers.
He has been described by a competent

veal genius that fascinates his

AS a lecturer he is eloquent and
brilliant He is man with an inspir
ing message, he has sought to know
his own age and has profound insight
into the needs of his time. A thorough
