the near future.
Neutral military men still felt an
allied offensive was in the making,
but admitted it might be delayed
and preparation heightened and in
tensified should Germany divert
troops from the Polish front to man
the West Wall.
British political and military
quarters meantime viewed with the
utmost gravity these eastern events:
First, Soviet Russia's action in
settling her eastern border scores
with Japan and thus freeing her
self for a powerful role in the west.
Second, Russia's mobilization on
her western border with Poland op-
posite the furious west-east line Of
march of the German forces in
Southern Poland
These German forces, having
seized Poland's rich mineral lands
in the southwest, presumably are
closing in on the Polish oil lands
north of the Rumanian border.
At the same time Polish armies
of the north are fighting to break
through two great pockets under
assault from the north on the War;

Loudoun County
All Club Members
Vie al Annual Fair
Prize Livestock and
Garden Produce Prove
Their Achievements
ky a STAFF Correspondent OF The Star

PURCELLVILLE, Va, Sept. 16.
Every top-notch domestic animal
and vegetable in fertile Loudoun
County seemed to be making a
hopeful pilgrimage here today,
bound for the 4th annual County
All Club Fair.
Pecks of potatoes, mellow pump
kins and giant stalks of corn came
humping over country roads under
the watchful eyes of the boys and
girls who ran the fair, and the
grown-ups they allowed to partici-
pate.
Young Shorthorn, Angus and
Hereford bulls were driven lowing
into the fair grounds and lined up
before the judges. They seemed
playful, romping with their young
breeders when they should have
posed in a calm and impressive
manner.
Typical was Sandy, a 1876
pound Shorthorn yearling ably
managed by his 13-year- old owner,
Frank Eppes of Hamilton. Sandy
has soulful eyes. moist nose and
silken curls Frank put the curls
in by "water-wave," which in
wolves such instruments as a wet
cloth, a Scotch comb, a marker and
a stiff brush.
But the ort-spoken chief of
judges, j. P. Kean, gave Sandy a
blue ribbon on more prosaic quail
flcations
Small Frank, who weighs not a
tenth as much as his bull. explained
that the merits of Sandy are no
accident.
Il pump 20 gallons of water by
hand every day to fill this fellow
up, and stuff him with alfalfa, too."
he said.
For the grand prize in beef classes
Sandy was outranked by a white
faced Hereford bred by 2O-year- old
Philip Coleman, jr., of Sterling, for
six years a member of the Ashburn
All Club. Young Coleman said
he raised this yearling on his little"
700-acre farm, with 100 other beef
cattle, and he hasn't had time to
give it any name. He'll take the
prize winner down to the State
fair at Richmond at the end of this
month, he said
Hundreds of girls circled about
