Auto Inspection
Much interest was displayed here
on DOrman street last week while
the traffic lane for automobile in
spection was in progress. Usually a
great many spectators were in at
tendance and seemed to enjoy
the difficulties that some
had in passing all the tests. The
inspectors highly appreciated the
fine cooperation given by the peo-
pie in this vicinity, having shown a
fine spirit toward the inspection and
caused a minimum amount of trOu-
BILE. The rain on two or three occa-
sions held up the inspection, but it |
is believed that most of the cars in
this vicinity have been through the
lanes.
viii Split Even
Judging from the crowd that at
tended the Kent and Sussex Fair on
there are plenty of people
who had not yet visited the fair
grounds this year. The fair officials
certainly seemed TO have done the
right thing in extended the event
.hree days this week. That gave
hose who didn't visit the fair last
week, a chance to go and 1t is be-
ieVed that the attendance for the
hree extra days will raise the f.
lances enough for the fair officials
o just about split even.
