Important
Fair Meeting
Thurs.,Feb.:4
Dates for 1892 Exposition to
Be Definitely Decided
Upon
TO FILL 2 VACANCIES
Business and Professional
Men and Private Citizens
Should Support Officers

President J. B. Schoenhoff, of the
Agricultural Society of Stearns
County, has called very import
ant meeting of the stockholders.
and all those interested in the
1882 Stearns fair, to be held at the
Community Club rooms Thursday
evening, Feb. 4, at 500 o'clock.
At the recent annual meeting the
office of secretary was left open
with instructions for the President
and members of the Board of Dr.
rectors, whom he should select,
name the secretary. Fay Cooper
was elected as treasurer at this
meeting. He has declined to serve.
Men have been found who will &C
cept positions and their appoint
ment will be ratified at Thursday
evenings meeting.
Advertising for the 1882 fair will
be considered, as will the 1882 fair
premium list. The premiums will
be readjusted to keep them within
the $1,700 paid yearly by the state.
The All Club activities will be
discussed. The advance sale Of
season tickets for the fair will al
so be talked over.
President Schoenhoff urges all
department heads to be on hand at
this meeting. If they cannot at
tend he will appreciate it greatly
if they will let him know before
the meeting.
Discussions of ways and means
of putting the fair grounds in shape
for the 1882 fair will be taken up
and definite plan win be decided
upon.
The dates for this years fair will
bet set at Thursday evenings meet
ing.
The officers of the fair are giving
much of their time in making these
annual fairs a success. They are
entitled to the hearty support Of
the public. Every man who has
the success of the fair at heart will
be present at the meeting Feb. 4.
President Schoenhoff has sug-
gested the slogan: "The Stearns
County Fair Needs the Money" It
is timely.
Some of those who purchased
certificates of indebtedness several
years ago have suggested that they
would be willing to turn their GER
tificates back to the Association If
the other holders will do so. Divi-
dends at the rate of per cent per
annum were paid for several years
and 25 per cent of the principal has
been liquidated. For the past few
years it has been impossible to
pay the interest dividend.
The Stearns County Fair is in a
critical condition. There is no
denying that fact. However, at
the recent meeting of the Federal
ed Fairs of Minnesota held at st.
Paul last week it was disclosed that
only % of the 80 and more county
fairs held in the state last year
broke even financially.
When one takes all of the fairs
in the state into consideration the
Stearns County Fair Is in splendid
shape.
Don't rock the GOAT. Be out at
next Thursday evenings meeting
and boost.

The annual meeting of the Sank

For the past several years these

Because of conditions the directors
decided to abandon the lunch pro-
ject this year.
The business will be speedily
cleaned up to give the two gentle
men invited to speak an opportun-
ity to be heard. The first will be
Ted Ahrens, son-in-law Of Mr.. and
Mrs. Henry Borgmann, and assis-
tant dairy and food commissioner
of Minnesota. The gentleman spoke
before the Junior Chamber of
Commerce in this city last week
and made a most favorable i'm
preston. He is a dairy expert,
having graduated from the dairy
division Of the Minnesota Farm
School several years ago. He
knows his dairy cow and her Pc
culiarities, If any. He will have a
message for the dairymen.
Mr.. Brandt, president of the
Land o. Lakes Creameries, Inc,
will also speak. The gentleman has
addressed the patrons of the Sank
Lake Creamery on several previous
occasions. He will, no doubt, re-
view the activities of the one or

things women could do to help even SO SIM

after all, what's one odd job more or less at
a time like this? Hardly drop in the bucket"
But when drops are falling into bucket,
have you ever noticed how quickly the pail Is
filled 10 overfiowing?
THERE'S that papering that needs to be
done Well, let's do it nowl First, we
order the new paper, giving contract to a
local paper dealer-not much, perhaps, but
enough profit in 1t to enable him to go home
and tell his wife she can have that dress she
wanted or Johnny can have the new suit he
needs for school. sale in a local dry goods
store-Circle No. l.
The paperhanger comes, whistling over his
work. happy in the knowledge of an unex-
pected Job that means meat on his table this
week for the first time in two months-C1rcle
No. 2. The odd job keeps him busy for several
days, and while he's at work a neighbor drops in
who had been thinking Of having several rooms
in his house done over but kept putting 1t of.
That's a fine job your man is doing"
"Yes, we had thought of waiting until next
year, but when we realized how much odd

afford to give much to the unemployment fund
right now, as things are pretty tight with us,
but I can have my paperng done and give a
man job"

Another job for the paperhanger-the third

Martha, the paperhangers wife, rejoices be-
cause now sne can buy those new shoes for
little Martha and Tommy More business for
the local shoe store, and this in turn leads to
more work for the shoe factory. The circle
widens. And so 1t goes. That's what your
odd job can do. That Is what the wife of
the President meant when she said: THE

but it would be poor economy"
If you are young girl or boy still in school,
you may think that there is nothing you can
do about the depression. It's very distressing
and it has cut you out of a lot of nice things
you were able to have and to do two or three
years ago-and Mary Jones, next door, hasn't
had a new dress for ages. But it's just one
of those things. You might feel stirred by
desire to help while everybody seems to be talk
ing about what must be DONE but what is
there for you to do?

is as close in spirit to the school girls and boys
Of America any other adult. If not closer,
