Maujr I'irity Exhibit* From "Tin
Home Weautiful."
The management of tho County
Fair have grout cause to bo proud
of their splendid achievement, for
the Fair lu every particular wan a
credit to them. And to the grand
old county that it represented.
it is extremely gratifying to sec
the general prosperity of our people
and their ambition to excell. The
farmed sont in the cotton, corn, po
tatoes, flour, tugar cane, frvjlt of
'all kind, In fact everything that
mean# "a living at home."
The. thrifty house keepefs sent
pickles, preserves, jellies, butter,
i" ??"(!, fruit cake, pound cake and
layer cake. And everything proven
that the pantries of our county arc
abundantly filled, and the ladlfes of
our county are good cooks. Not ev
ery man can bestow tho order of
tho cordon bleu, as Louis XV did,
but any average man w 11 1 appreciate
Mlrf wife's culinary abilities ind
praise her becomingly. If "clvllle-j
od man cannot live without gooke,"
tho thing to do, Is to loam to
cook. Huekln say? "Cookery meant*
the knowledge ei Medea, and of
'Qlrce, an/} of Helen and of the
Queen of Sheba." And the UdleB j
of Kershaw County proved them
selves well versed In this knowl
edge.
"The home beautiful^" was also
represented by the handsome ferns,
palms, chrysanthemums, and rosea
that beautify the verandas and
yards of a majority of the bOmeB
of this county, whloh Nature has
so abundantly blessed. Wherfr the
flowers are ever blooming, and the
sun Is always shining? except when
we haver a; county Fair,
And the artlstlo homes were In
evidence too. The drawings and
the paintings made a very credita
ble exhibit ?
The beautiful and artistic needle
work was much admired, and we
| felt that we would llfee to ptn a
"blue rlblioir -tra~ each- fclece. ? . t*fce
?work of the school children sent
in from the different sohobls made
a fine display, showing m&rked
progress In the past year. And
they are looking forward to great
er! things next year.
Hurrah for the Fair of 19111
Even the downpour of rain did
not keep It from being a triumph
ant success. Let us all bend our
energies to make the one of 1918,
as good or better.
