Bethune Community Fair Oftobes 21ft .? ? ~ : ^ v7,v;v " ?v.T" \ ?? #/ The Community Fair at Bethune this year will be somewhat varied from the one of last year. With the adverse crop season it may seem ? that the fair would be generally poorer than the one of the past sca " son, but Bethune is looking for the best fair they have had in years. The one given last year has taught those in charge a great deal in regard to the things that go to make success. The fair will miss the president of last year, Mr. A B Mcl^aurin, who passed away suddenly last spring. The gathering this year will be of one day's duration only, last year it having lasted for two days, Friday and Saturday. There will also be a change in the system of arranging and judging the exhibits. All articles will be in place and ready for judging on Thur.-day afternoon at four o'clock. Judging will begin promptly at four so as to be com pleted Thursday night with the ex ception of the livestock which will be in place early Friday morning so as to haw judging completed before the gates are. opened. All entries will remain in placc until late Fridaj, night cr Saturday morning when they may be removed. Theie has been some change in the personnel of the Fair.

Though it doesn't seem like a year ?since the turnstiles at the State Fair Grounds ceased to click on the 1931 Show, it has been almost that, long, and less than a month from this week the State Fair of 1932 will be in full blast. The dates are October 17-22. Despite the socalled depression, the State Fair Society has gone right ahead with the Fair in a big way,! feeling, Paul V. Moore, Secretary, said, that the people need the Fair more in times like these perhaps than when everything is rosy. The State Fair is the great cross road of South Carolina ? the annua) meeting place for many thousand people ? and the whole plan is to make the week gayer and more worth while than ever before. The amuse ments nre tip-top, the exhibits are the finest the fair has ever offered. Therp will be a great out-door Musi ? ?t' ,c ,)cw, r >mething liko the one that made u<- h a big hit last year.
