There's not anything that helps
to inspire people to "a better plan
Of living than u good county fair,
and not only is it n help To the
people but the merchants as well.
All the money won in premiums
at the fair goes back TO the mcr-
chants.
Our county commissioners
might be able to help obtain the
land. If we could get the land
we could soon get the buildings.
| have never seen two men work
harder to make the fair success
than our county agent, Mr..
White and his assistant, Mr.. Ben
nett. Handicapped as they were
with only tents and mud, | think
every one will agree we did have
a good fair.
Ii the people will cooperate
with the county agent and his as
sistant in trying to put ON n fair
under such trying conditions.
what would they do If we had
permanent fair ground?
4 county is not considered
much of county il they do not
have good county fair and I'm
sure our commissioners are just
rs anxious for us to have the
ground and will help. They have
never failed to help when We call
ed when it was possible for them
70 do so. And I'm sure they will
hear our pleas and give us a lift,
il il is possible.
There is more proof we need a
rood fair ground, when YOU note
the winnings Of some Of our
ncighbors at the state fair. Not
so lono ago Henderson county
placed second at the state fair
with county exhibit. All we
need is chance. Civ" Us "A good
fair ground and buildings and
watch us grow. Henderson county
will soon be at the top.

A HOT SHOT: Here's a con-
tIibution through the mail on the
interesting discussion of women
working and the men loatmg
around, or both working:
"Surc, it depends on the CIR
cumstanccs whether or not n wife
should work for wages. If the
husband is unable to work then
the wife should work.
- think ii a rotten shame for
so many married women to be
out working and the husbands
kceping house, or out on the loaf;
that's all they can do; they can't
get work.
"Men. how about it? Are you
Going to continue to let the wl1e
wear the 'britches' and you the
pctticoat?
Many women think if their
husband happens to have q job 1t
is also necessary for them to work
to keep up installmcntS on luXu-
vies. while some men need thcf
lob to support maybe Il sick wife
and little children"
VIII be glad to have your slant
on this nationally discussed queS-
ton. Sign your name to your
communication for identification
but not for publication, and say
what you think, as the above
writer evidently did.

i|INDENBURG FIRE
BLAMED ON SPARK
Brush Discharge May Have
Ignited Leaked Gas,
Probers Report.

Destruction of the German airship
Hindenburg. with the loss Of 36 lives,
at Lakehurst, N. j., May probably
was due to the ignition Of mixture Of
free hydrogen and air by an electro
static spark generated during the at
tempted landing of the ship. Com
merce Department Investigating COM
mittee reported late yesterday.
The committee, in 61-page report
submitted to Secretary of Commerce
Roper, discounted charges of sabotage
and theories that lightning, a broken
propeller, structural failure or ignition
by radio spark had been responsible.
The sabotage angle was thoroughly
Investigated and was found to be un-
supported by any evidence, the COM
mittee reported.
A leak at or in the vicinity of cell
or 5 caused a combustible mixture
Of hydrogen and air to form in the
upper stern part of the ship in con-
siderable quantity, the committee
found.
The theory that brush discharge
lgnited such mixture appears most
probable" it was reported.
The committee supported its exani-
nation of 81 witnesses and studies
OF the Wreckage by a series of labora-
tory tests at the Bureau of Standards.
The report quotes very briefly from
the testimony of the survivors as to
their sensations during the fiery mo-
ments of the 'Hindenburg' end. Most
Of them described the detonation which
accompanied the first burst of fire as
resembling the parting of landing
line. One witness described the
sound as the same type of explosion
that one hears when using a kitchen
gas range, when first lighting the
flame or turning it off" Hans Freund
said that fire was simultaneous with
the sound and that he was surrounded
by fire Immediately"
The report was signed by the three
committee memberS-SOuth Trimble
Jr., Commerce Department solicitor
and committee chairman; Mai. R. w.
Schroeder, whose resignation as as
slstant director of air commerce took
effect prior to publication of the
report, and Denis Mulligan, chief of
the regulation and enforcement divi-
sion, Bureau of Air Commerce.
The committee was aided by group
OF technical advisers.
