ELLSWORTH FAIR
Good Weather Favors Hancock County Fai,
Association for Three Days---Big Crowds
Financial Success

/
The third annual fair at Wyman
park has come and gone. The Han
cock County Fair Association was
favored with three good days again
this year. The attendance for the
first and third days was above the
average and the second days crowd
was record breaker.
Ellsworth had big fair last year,
but it was disappointing to many to
know that 1t had not proved success
full financially. This year, however,
1t proved successful, both from the
financial viewpoint and as big
agricultural fair. Hancock county
must enjoy this encouraging report
with the fair association, for with
profit it will be possible to have
better fairs each year. The mem
bers of the fair association certainly
deserve success, for they have been
working industriously and cheerfully
in the face OF hardships and set
backs ever since the project Of big
fair in Ellsworth was begun.
The Farm Bureau organizations
in the county filed the exhibition
hall with exhibits Of much Interest.
The entertainment features OF the
| fair were excellent. Good racing, an
interesting midway, the best in
vaudeville attractions, beautiful fire
works and fast ball games, furnished
enjoyment for all. Music by Foggs
hand of Brockton, Mass, was hlghly
appreciated. -
