Markville Fair Attracted
Fair Crowd on Saturday

A fair sized crowd attended the fair
at Markville Saturday, September Sth
in spite of the inclement weather con-
ditions.
The various communities we're rep
resented well in the exhibition of
produce and fancy work, and had the
weather been more favorable, much
larger gathering would have turned
out, it is presumed. The baseball
game between Markville and Danbury
was a very close contest, with Mark
vile emerging as the winner by a
score Of to 3. The battery for Mark
vile consisted of Kelch and Ruther-
ford, while Churchill and Richmond
did the heavy work for Danbury.

Remember when roasting meat that
the oven should be very hot when the
meat is first put in. If you have an
oven regulator, AIS to 500 degrees Is the
required temperature. This quick heat
