'‘From every angle you logk at jt the fair was a de- cided success. True; some things iight have been different, and better, fox that’ mutter, but uhnz 3 it all in all, the fair was a good ome, . i Next year some things should be different. The price in the first place should be less. The farmer with hig family should be able to afford coming. He could hardly stand the price this year,.and. we hsrdly blame him for not enthusing over the fair. He shouid be able to buy a family ticket so that his whole family could spend a day without his having !\ | to mortgage his farm to get within the gate-and grandstand. < . The daily “entertainment next year will be differ- ¥ cnt we are dvised, The program committee made every effort to give a greater variety this year, but i was unable to.do so. Next year it might give a shorter program with a. greater variety, Which doubtless will lppell to fl:e grentat number. . -Yes, the coneessions, too, nuzht be changed. We are not finding fault with anyone. Far be it from us to do so, but we feel that'weé have a right to sug- gest.. In fact, we consider it our duty to ‘do so. " The fair is for the farmer, primarily. .The con- cessions -were. all.of the “get the money” nature.” A change, so that more entertainment concessions: \ ¢ could be provided, would meet with general approv- . al and this should be taken into consideration next Pmtiully every committee 'lxud is .agreed that . some changes should be made, and doubtless there ' will be many changés for the better of the mamt . | number. i’ Y e Al‘ FEED THE RUSSTAN ORPHANS . ~You have an opportunity to help feed an orphan in Russia. He may die without your help. The ! tommittee on Russian Relief for this state pleads corn, grain or potatoes, How many spuds did you leave rot in your base- ment this year? Perhaps only a few, But if you Xnew how the starving Russians would appreciate.a ttle help from you, you no doubt would lnve glad- ly given of your over-supply. . Fifty per cent of the people in the 1am|ne aréas of Russia will not have enough food to carry them ‘through the winte: feourse, you want to do ‘something. Here's yourschance. Write A.

It is further up to Mr. ‘Cox to see ‘that in the future such reports are immedaitély investigated and ‘a trathful report given out to 'tHe press. 1t is not our desire to belittle Mr. Cox or his de- - partment.
