best and most exciting-est
one yet.

with 1900 Of them being

Color And Unique Flavor
OF Event Enthrall Many

The smell of the cgar-smokng carnival man
blends with the tantalZing odors of cooking popcorn
hot dogs and hamburgerS on the hot grill and the
pungent aroma of the barnyard at the coloru Mont
gomery County Fair.
The combination of sights and smells and
sounds at the big annual event delights many
thousands of area residents each year.
It's fine way for the city dweller hemmed in
by bricks and mortar and steel to see and talk to
the people who still live in the green open spaces and
learn first hand about their way of life
The finest vegetables and sleekest animals grown
by rural residents all on view at the county fair
and few the city jewellers who fail to marvel at
the extraordinary quality size beauty of these
prize specimens.
Giant gourds, pumpkins, and corn vie for
coveted ribbons in part of the sprawng fair
grounds while in another sleek CATTLE swine and
sheep compete for hOnOrs and cash.
Wide-eyed children accompanied by their en-
thusiastic parents stroll from exhibit to exhibit
yelling at the size of giant SOW, the great shoulder
muscles of massive bull or the delicate lines of
graceful swan.
Both Alters and adult farmers, with some of
the latter being egtimately in the category of big
business lead their pure bred entries into the show
rings with unconcealed pride
Neatly-prmped Jersey, Holstein Guernsey and
Brown Swiss dairy cattle paraded before the
judges And Hereford, Shorthorn and Devon beef
cattle are skilfully shown, too.
In both categories there are champions of all
kinds, bulls and females and frislxy heifers that
never cease to delight OnloOkers.
In the swine department there are Berkshire and

ANNUAL COUNTY FAIR
Animal Exhibits
Increase in 90

Animal exhibits for the Mont
gomery County Fair are up
again for the 3rd successive
year, Chairman Norman Mills
announced this week. Most strik-
ing gains were made in the
Dairy Cattle arena.
Holstein exhibits stand at 81
this year as against 212 in 1862;
Ayrshire are up from 81 of last
year to 101 this year; Guernsey
from 120 in 1862 to 153 this
year, Jersey from 223 last year
to 224 this year. Brown Swiss
showed the only decline from 80
last year to 80 in 1868.
In Beef Cattle Devon entries
were up from 80 to 40 exhibits
and Hereford up from AZ in 1862
to 80 head. This years Angus
cattle exhibits stand at % and
Shorthorn at Is, both down
from 1862 exhibits.
The Swine Department show
ed gains again this year, Mr..
Mills reports. $40 entries are
registered for the 1868 Fair as
against 480 registered last year.
Several herds of swine had to
be turned down for lack of barn
space on the Fair grounds.
Sheep entries for 1868 are 223
exhibits.
Both the Poultry, Rabbit and
Goat Department report full
barns. This brings those entries
to LOO in Poultry; 40 in Goats,
and over 600 rabbits, Mr.. Mills
reports.

CRET SERVICE. BY Ian
Fleming. New American
Library; $4.50O
Ian Fleming's books are ex-
citing the way a dream is ex-
citing-and just as fantas-
tic. Improbabilities the wide
awake reader would reject
instantly are logical under
his spell. He tells us, and we
believe him, that master
criminal Ernst Stavro Bio
field, at work on a diabolical
plot to destroy an entire
country, virtually announces
his hideaway to the world
because he wants a college
of arms to prove him a count.
Hero James Bond is tutored
In genealogy and heraldry
so he can pass himself off
as the expert who will help
Blofeld achieve his goal.
Bonds adventures vary from
encounters with 10 beauties
at BlofelG'S sinister Swiss
health resort to a flight by
night down a ski trail under
gunfire. an avalanche and,
a last, true love. Many
scenes are exciting as a bob
sled run, used here, Incl
dentally, as a unique murder
weapon.
Popular on his own, Mr..
Fleming gained more fame
recently when President Ken
nedy was reported am ong
his fans. If you want to
know why, "On Her Majesty's
Secret Service" is a good place
to begin.

Mr.. Kennedy as President:
A Reporters Notebook

AS the White Houses cor
respondent for Time, Mr..
Sidey apparently has found
no minutia of information
too unimportant to record.
One may wonder what it
means to a story Of Mr.. Ken
nedy in the White House to
report that Larry OBrien,
the Presidents congressional
aide, smoked a certain brand
Of cigarettes.
Account of Crises
But such preoccupation
with matters of this kind
cannot obscure the major
work of Mr.. Sidey's contribu-
ton to the Kennedy story.
or much more Importance Is
his account of such crises
which have arisen since the
President took office, quite
notably the feeling Of the
President and the White
House after the Bay Of Pigs
fiasco, the meeting with So
Wet Premier Khrushchev,
and others.
The reader will find Mr..
Sidey'S story quite fascinating
II not entirely objective, as
no account of this kind could
be by a writer who has been
so close to what has happened
in the last few years. He
ends his story with a hint Of
1864 and Mr.. Kennedy's views
on that in the light Of the
civil rights struggle and other
matters.

The Chain of Events
Before Pearl Horbor

The point is, though, that at
the present stage of the con-
troversy, it seems unlikely
that any one will come up
with a convincing case
against any one official or
department, military or ci-
william, and that quite a num-
Der must share in whatever
blame may be assessed.
Certainly Mr.. Hoehling
does not feel, any more than
any one else who has taken
a broad look at the situation

of 194l, that sole RESPONSE
bility may be laid on Wash

the United States. But the
President, nursing a sinus at
tack, spent that Sunday
morning going over his
stamp collection and chat
ting casually with Harry
Hopkins.
1t is less important after
all these years to place the
negligence than to sum up
what Pearl Harbor has
taught us, and this lesson
Mr.. Ho ehlin g apprehends
and passes along very we'll.
Meanwhile his day-by- day,
sometimes hour-by-hour &C
count of what was happen
ing in Washington, in Ha-
wall and in the Philippines
during the week before the
bombs fell is absorbing and
even carries an element of
suspense despite our fore
knowledge of how the script
ends.

JOHN F. KENNEDY, PRESI-
DENT: A Reporters Inside
Story. BY Hugh Sidey.
(Atheneum; $685.

nouncementS, there is the
human factor. When a man
becomes President. as John
F. Kennedy did on that snow
encrusted day in January,
1861, these human qualities
in the man occupying the
most powerful position in the
world become of Importance.
So it is timely and we'll
that Hugh Sidey, a perceiv-
ing reporter who has covered
Mr.. Kennedy's presidential
campaign and his two years
and more in the White House,
has chronicled here an init
mate, even an exhaustive,
account of the President.
Open to Question
Mr.. Sidey subtitles his book
"A Reporters Inside Story"
1t is always open to question
as to how much any reporter
is on the inside Of what goes
on in the White House. But
from the authors detailed
recital Of frequent CONVERSE
tons with the President, it
would seem safe to say that
few If any reporters have OBJ
tanned so much inside infor-
nation. This goes particu-
larly to the Presidents mood
and views which have never
appeared in any public pro-
nOuncementS,
