Morgan county's S0th fair is now

in practically every department. In
the livestock department the num-
ber of horses entered breaks all
records. The poultry exhibit is also
full to overfowing. There are SO
many stands, concessions, amuse-
ment features, ETC., that there was
hardly room to place them all. A
last hours attraction contracted
for, is Montana Meechey wild west
and rodeo. which gave perform
ance Wednesday night and will also
give one tonight. There are "a race
horses entered. But why take space
telling about the fair, when about
everybody will be there today?

In the early morning of Wednes-
day, rain threatened, and the crowd
was slow in arriving. Those in
charge were busy putting on the
last touches. The exhibits in all de-
partments are up and above the av-
erage. The stock barns are full to
overfowing, with Morgan county's
best live stock. A surprising part
of the exhibit is the big entry of
horses. Morgan county, for so many
years the home of the best horses
in the country round about, has
been on the decline the past few
years The renewed demand is
bringing them back. Several herds
of Herefords, Durhams, Jerseys, are
competing for the ribbons in the
cattle department. Sheep and poul-
try have filled the space allotted
them. If you think there is no
fruit in Morgan county, see the dis
play in horticultural hall.
Amusements of all kinds are on
the program. The All club and
school exhibits are a fair in them
selves.
Special mention should be made
of the Chesterhill band which is
composed of young folks.
Nellie Dewitt Baker and Mary
Woodward. R. Ms, are in charge OF
the Red Cross tent.
In the ball game between Row
land and Stockport, played In the
forenoon, the former won. Score
6-5. In the afternoon the Golden
Rules and Chesterhill played. At
the end of the seventh inning, when
the score was 14-2 in favor of G. R.,
the game was called because of rain.

Medieval Scholastics

The group called the schOolmen or
scholustics of the Middle ages attempt
ed to harmonize reason and faith, phi
insOphy and revelation. They accept
ed what the church taught about God
and salvation, but they tried to show
that reason and logic. particularly as
shown in the work OF Aristotle. led to
the same conclusions. Some things,
like the doctrine OF the Trinity, were
admittedly beyond human reason, but
the schulnstics tried TO show that they
were not contrary TO reason. The
schoolmen have often been accused
Of wasting time on futile hair split
ting. but their keen development OF
logical processes and their confidence
that the universe was reasonable have
been of value for later science.

the Troy camp, and Jimmy Moran, l29
pound battler from New York city,
down from he ReMord camp The
Havre boy was a substitute from that
on the printed program and his name
was not secured.
Moran looked out of place in box
ing ring. He looked handicapped by
his stature which was several inches
minus-not over five feet, we should
judge, and that. may be stretching 1t
an inch or two. But he showed up
sturdy and muscular And while he
might lack in stature, he surely didn't
lack in experience and skill From the
first tap Of the gong, it could be seen
that he was an old hand at the game.
AT the first sound of the bell he shot
across the ring, met his man coming
out of his corner, landing left and
right to his larger opponents head be-
fore he was hardly out of his cor
ner. Both boys were willing. The Havre
lad kept wading. into his more
experienced opponent but neither one
Of them did much damage to the other
1t was clearly Moran's battle and he
won the decision.

opportunity, seized handy pail OF
