AT THE FALL FAIR
Over 100 Boys and Girls From Idaho,
Lewis and Clearwater show
Years Work Here.


County Fair and Stock Show to b
held in Nezperce October 2-8-4 will
undoubtedly be the part taken therein
by the more than 100 Boys and Girl
Club members from the Idaho, Levi
and Clearwater counties. Here is t,
be exhibited the summed-up effort,
for the year of these enterprisine
young ladies and gentlemen who are
working under one standard for i'm
proved farm conditions Their dis
plays of stock, crops and home eco
nomics products and their ability in
stock judging on so large scale GER
tainly will be an eye-opener.
President Harding and his assist
ants of the Fair management have
been working for some time to bring
about this arrangement, and they are
to be congratulated upon, their success.
We are enabled to announce at this
time that the premiums for the Boys
and Girls Club displays have been in
creased 100 per cent by the fair man
agenent. Arrangements are also be-
ing made for the free entertainment
of all visiting Club members at the
homes of our townspeople. On the
last day of the Fair a public banquet
will be given at the Nezperce Hotel
in honor of the Club members
AS indicated in the following letter
from District Club Leader H. A.
Stone to President p M Harding of
the fair association, Nezperce is the
logical point for holding this Club
roundup, in point of location and
in view of the fact that the work has
been SO zealously entered into by the
youth of this section. Mr.. Stone says
in his letter:
"After conference with our peo-
pie at the University and others CON
cerned, it seems advisable to hold a.
Tri- Club Fair at Nezperce, during
your county fair, to include Idaho,
Lewis and Clearwater Club members,
who will exhibit their livestock, farm
crops, canning, baking and sewing |
work, and take part in judging and
demonstration contests.
tsI wish to thank you for the invi-
tation for our club members to hold
their district Club Fair at the Lewis
County Fair in Nezperce.
Nezperce is centrally located for
this Tri-County Fair, with the follow
ing communities active in Club work:
Winchester, Mohler, Harbke, Kamiah,
Greer, Orofino, Weippe, Fraser, Koos-
ha, Clearcreek, Sites, Harpster,
Grangeville, Cottonwood, Craigmont
and Nezperce. The Club department
at the Lewis County Fair should be
unusually large, since these three
counties have quite an extensive Club
program this year. It will mean that
all Club members in these three coun-
ties will have an opportunity to ex-
hibit their years work, or the results,
which will be their best work, and to
take part in live stock, crop and home
economies judging and demonstration
contests. Furthermore, parents and
others interested win have an oppor-
tunity to see the results of the work
here assembled, where no less than loo
will be taking an active part as ex-
hibitors and demonstrators.
"The Nezperce Club members, with
several years experience In success
full club work, win be big help IN
putting on real Club Fair in con-
nection with the already well known
Lewis County Fair. And, as sug~
gestion, want to state that Mr.. Dick
johnson, your club live stock leader
and successful Poland China breeder,
will be most excellent superintend-
ent for the Boys and Girls Club. de-
partment of your Fair
