TENANT NEVER FLOATED OVER q. LOUIS PARKS
 BUT NAY THIS YEAR

ST. LOUIS, Oct. z. (P-St. Louis had never won a pennant in either the National or the American leagues un- til this season.
 The most recent opportunity was in 1922, when the Browns, batting, hurling and fielding superbly were runnersup to the Yankees in an ex- citing American league battle that left St. Louis remaining in second place by only half-game margin.
 The Cardinals before this season, rarely a first division team, have not fared so we'll. Beginning with 1876, records show that the Red Birds have finished third, four times; fourth, three times; fifth, five times; sixth, seven times; seventh, five times; eighth, six times; ninth, once; tenth, once; eleventh, three times, and twelfth, twice
 St. Louis was not represented in the league from 1878 to 1884 and from 1887 to 1891, inclusive, and ranked the lowest during the period 1892 to 1898 when the league was composed of twelve clubs. During this time, the Birds did not finish higher than ninth and ran eleventh, three times; twelfth, once, tenth, once and ninth once.
 Tn 1922 St. Louisans gathered little more hope when the Cardinals tied for third place with Pittsburgh.

To Post PIacards.
AS the parties proceed along the
various roads of the county they will
post placards giving the program and
dates of the fair. The placards will
also be placed in all stores and of
fices throughout the county. 1t is
felt that when the last of the motor
cades shall have returned there will
be no resident of Cochise county who
will not know what attractions the
fair will hold and the date of its
opening in Douglas
The excursionists, as they go along,
will explain the various parts of the
program which they feel will most
interest those in the different sec
tipns.
Splendid Fair.
There will be something at the fair
to interest every resident of the
county. There will be a record num-
ber Of exhibits of cattle, poultry,
vegetables, grains, dairy products,
fruits and flowers.
Every woman in the county will be
interested in the exhibits of the do
mcstic science department. From in
formation received through the chair
man of the department, it is known
that more contributors have become
interested in the exhibit this year
than at any time in the past.

exhibits. These will include many ar.

be held in honor of the queen.
Cowboy Sports.
Cattlemen of the county, will of
course, be particularly interested in
the i've STOCK eXnlDltS. ana the cow
boy sports. The cowboy sports will
be carried on during the first two
days of the fair, October and 8.
Entries will be limited to residents
of Cochise county and immediate VII
