The Corn Show. Editor of The News: I want congratulate you on the ear?st efforts you are making to it the people of Lancaster >unty to attend the National am Exposition in Columbia. is certainly one of the most >markable displays that has xl n 11. - ~ /ki ueen in vne oouin, so iar j quality and educational feaires are concerned, and I trust lat many of our farmers and leir families will attend the cposition this week as it connues all this week. There is just one point that wish to stress in regard to lis show, and that is the ab;nce of the gambling and nusement features that so ten prove so disgusting to le visitors. All the merry>rounds, wheels of fortune, mcinc eirls. fortune teller*. ;c., are conspicuous by their 3sence, and the management F the exposition are to be conratulated on eliminating this iature. We think that the lanagement of the State Fair ight to profit by the example lat has been given along this ne, if they expect to receive le co-operation and support of eople of intelligence and Tenement. The Corn Exposition is eduitional from beginning to end, rul who would want better musement than to see the hapy tomato club girls give their >ngs and yells, make their seeches and give their demnstrations in canning, or to ?e the Winthrop girls give emonstrations in cooking, prearing viands that looked good nough for the King's table. I shall not attempt to enumrate any of the features of the ^position as they have been mphasized in the columns of ha \Ta,.,n W..i T i. X IL.i. >? ne ncwis, 11 ui/ i liuhi mill &H ho have not been to the show rill do so in the few days yet smaining. Just one more thought, is it ossible that the Lancaster :>unty citizens who attend this ^position will imbibe enough nthusiasm to organize a coun- i f fair and thus encourage and Ivance the agricultural pro- j ress of our county? /I S.
