This letter presents a very
serious subject: My sister and I
are in constant disagreement over
the way she is rearing her son.
Perhaps it isn't any of my bus
mess, but think she is being very
unfair to him. To explain fur
ther: Every boy in our part of
the country wears long trousers
blue jeans or corduroy
pants-to school by the time he
is six, except her son, who, in
cidentally, is eight. She dresses
him in extremely short pants
far above the knee because she
doesn't happen to like long pants.
Also, she makes him do other
things which, while not incorrect,
amount to affectations in this
city because they differ with local
practices. AS a result, his school,
mates are forever poking fun at
him and calling him sissy" He

ty and John D. Wheeler is the

1t has been estimated by the
national foundation that the
three day clinic at the fair viii
cost approximately $1,000 and
this money will be obtained from
the sale of Christmas seals last
year. Approximately $1700 was
raised during that campaign.
Since the clinic will not be
held this year especially for the
school children, they are urged
to have their x-ray taken during
the centennial fair. AS matter
of fact, parents are urged to see
that their children of grade and
gh.school age. take advantage of
this free x-ray. l@-
From a health standpoint, the
TB x-ray clinic will be one of the
most important features of the
centennial fair and it is hoped
that a large number of x-rays
will be taken.
Members of the local society
are all volunteer officers and in
return for their services, they are
asking that you have an x-ray
taken.

0ld-Timers Tell
About First Fair
John McWilliams
Head Of Board

The first Noble county fair was
instituted one year after the
actual foundation of the county,
in 1852.
The centennial fair of 1852 will
be held Aug. 28, 90 and 80, the
last day being on Saturday this
year.
Old-timers all like to talk
about the fair, especially if they
had part in it, during its infant
days.
We hear a lot about the one
and only Sarahsville Fair, held
in that town until the World
War / days. At the same time,
after 1883 for some years,
Caldwell Fair was held each year
at the present county Playground.
John McWilliams, Sarahsville
Stockbuyer and farmer, was
president of the county fair
board, and ]. w. Matheney was
secretary, when the county fair
was changed from the Sarahs-
vile grounds to its present site.
At the time, the change was
fought by the Sarahsville resi-
dents quite vehemently. Nc
Williams was the father of Fred
McWilliams, prominent stockbuy-
er, who resides on North street.
Reasons for the change were
mainly that Caldwell was the
county seat, with more spacious
grounds.
An organization called The
Caldwell Fair Company had pur-
chased the present grounds and
set up some buildings for it. The
company was composed of Cald-
well business men, who desired
fair of their own, in addition
to the county annual event at
Sarahsville. Glenn Fliehmann of
Woodsfield had the mortage of
approximately $4,000.
When the Caldwell Fair failed
to work out satisfactorily, the
ground was purchased by DR..
Riseling, local dentist, who sold
the ground back to the county
board, when the annual celebra-
tion was moved.
The office at the south gate,
the grandstand and the straw
shed at the north of the midway
was built by T. w. Patterson,
local contractor. A short time
later, the large horse barns were
built. The old floral hall and the
two older cattle barns were there
when the property was purchased
by the board. The remainder of
the buildings were moved up the
hill from the center of the race
tracks. They had been previously
used as barricks for the CCC
workers, who were stationed al
Caldwell after 1884 for a few
lyears. a-
| This week a dust preventing
| surface was poured on the drive:
on the grounds, adding another
| improvement. The cement block
floral hall, built this summer, ir
addition to the new sanitary
toilets, will add much in the way
of comfort for the fairgoer, anc
those who plan to have any ex'
hibits.

Know Your Eggs
informed Consumers Are AmstVer
To Most Egg Marketing Problems
By II. e. CUSHMAN

RIGHT NOW everyone is happy
over the egg situation except the
woman with slim budget who is
purchasing eggs to serve her hun
cry family She would not mind the
English situation where an adult
still gets only one egg once or twice
month. 1t would be easier on her
food budget. But she knows that
one egg per person day is proper
for good nutrition, so if possible,
she will continue to purchase eggs.
But she does want what she pays
for to be good. And I mean good. If
she buys carton of eggs with an
AA seal on it, it is reasonable for
her to expect every one of that
dozen to be of top quality.
With more than Il, 900 people of
Montana contacted through our All
Egg Quality demonstrations, we
