It is the purpose to make the Faij of 1909 an improvement on thai of 1908, if possible, and this we hope to do by profiting by the experiences and mistakes last year, eliminating such features of the program of last year as may now be seem advisable, and adding to the program such fea tures as may commend them selves to the good judgement of the several committees. We want t~o make the stock and farn products features of this Fair a grand success. The mu si and amusement features will th givenl their full share of at ention, and the ladies depart ment will be even better than it was last year, and in this the Fair Association invites the co ation and assistance that can be given them. Let everybody get his mule, horse, or any other animal he may have, in shape by that time. Get to work to raise creditabe exhibits of farm products, because prizes will be offered that will be worth com peting for. Respectfully. W. J. Bolt, T. J. Mauldin, Sec., President, Celebrating His Birthday. Editor Sentinel-Journal: Please allow space in the S.-J for me to tell your readers of an other birth day dinner. On the 25th this scribe and his better half found their way to the hospitable home of Joel R. Griffin where we fonnd several of his friends and neighbors and father, Captain James A. Griffin for whom the day was celebra ted, it being his 70th birth day. He had his good lady with him and we felt good when we met her for you know she is a daugh ter of Rev. W. B. Singleton, de ceased, who your scribe held in very high esteem. Those people are of the old Enon crowd with whom we used to live in the days of yore when we plowed the big ox, but then that's not telling of the dinner or the day as I started to do. Well, when we arrived we found all enjoying themselves and Capt. Griffin as spry as a boy of 16 instead of the man of 70. We all gathered in the sit ting rooms and cracked jokes, etc., and finally were listening to Capt. Griffin's harration of "war tales" when.some one an nounced that it was time to pre pare for dinner. All seemed very obedient to this command as they responded without a murmur. When all were ready we were shown to the dining room where they had all kinds of good things to eat which we would like to describe but we are not familiar with the names of all those delicacies, but I do know that the dinner would have been a credit to any home. We noticed the progress that Mr. Joel Griffin has made in the last 10 years since he lived in the little cottage. He nowv has a beautiful home and is fixed up well in every way and when we took in the surroundings we did not wonder at he and his good lady giving a feast in honor of his father, which the captain stated was unexpected to him but was appreciated. We want to say just here that Mr. and Mrs. Griffin have been other-wise blessed as they have some nice, bright children. Miss Nina, the oldest one was very prominent in making things pleasant and handy in the dining room and the scribe naturally enough thought that if he had life to go through again now he would focus his attentions somewhere near Joel R. Griffin's. It seems silly to talk hard times when prosperity is evident in every home that strives for it. Afterwards we all assembled in the parlor where we had some nice music and at half past four we all took leave, and the 70th Birth Day celebration of Capt. Griffin was a thing of the past. A Friend.
