TO SPONSOR
FAIR MEETS With
HEARTY APPROVAL
Also Plan to Sponsor Good
Roads Day" Tuesday
July 10Th

An interested delegation from the
P~lentywood Commercial Club, the
County Fair Board, the County Com
~mlssloners, and a few other citizens
throughout the county held a ban
auet at the Elgin Cafe, Tuesday
evening relative to making plans for
staging a county fair here this year.
9. G. Christianson, president of
the Commercial Club, presided as
chairman at the meeting. The sug.
gestion to have a fair, without ask
ing for any financial backing from
the county, Htet with hearty approv-
al OF those in attendance. In lieu of
assistance from the county in stag
ing the fair, It was deemed advisa-
BILE to ask the support of the com
mercial clubs in the various towns
IN the county, both for financial CO.
operation. and for the promotion Of
interest IN entering exhibits, thus
making it a county wide event.
No definite date was set for stag
ing the fair. though the suggestion
was made that it be sometime in
September. Members of the fan
board are Gus Riba, chairman, Nels
Olson, Outlook, Fred Olsen, Dagmar,
K. G. Tyler. Homestead and Jack
Bennett, Plentywood.
Short talks favoring the fair were
given by county commissioners Vic
tor .Anker and Carl Hansen, Svend
Petersen, Dagmar, Judge s. f.
Paul, Carl Peterson, L. E. Helm and
several others. 1t was suggested that
q competent judge from Montana
State College be on hand at the fair
to Judge the various exhibits, and
this was heartily recommend
ed.
Judging from the favorable atti-
tude Of representative residents from
various communities in the county
at the meeting, the proposed fair
would be a marked success from the
beginning, ever though cash prizes
not offered to exhibitors. The
plan is To award ribbons for prize
winning exhibits, except All club
exhibits, which would probably come
in for some cash prizes.
Archie Mann of the Wolf Creek
country suggested at the meeting
tic SpuISOFInR OF q good ROAD
day throughout Sheridan county,
and suggested that the county COM
missioners set aside a day for all
residents Of the county to perform
little bit Of road work, for the
Of better biways and highways
in Sheridan. The suggestion was
Immediately accepted by the Plen-
Commercial Club, which set
aside Tuesday, July rs, as the day
for local residents to take to the
roads in this vicinity, removing dan
gerous stones and rocks here, filling
in chuck holes there, and n various
either ways contributing a little Of
their spare time to the good of the
cause. 1t is thought that several
other localities IN the county will
also designate this or some other
lay in the near future as a day when
the ever-hopeful businessman q
his troubles, and the farmer
quit cussing the president long
to get out and have a good
line thinking about nothing but
roadWays.
