LBN. * FIRST COUNTY FAIR r OPENED kiERE MONDAY. 1 (Continued from page 1.) is a mutual association for the de2 velopment of the resources of Williamsburg county and for the uplift , of her people. If by your co-operation we are brought nearer togeth, er, individual to individual, family > with family, neighborhood with , neighborhood, township with townP ship, school with school and town . with town; if by this we are made to understand each other better, ? ? - A - - 1 .i. , wny, tnen we nave maue a long siep P in the right direction. I love the word co-operation, be! cause it is one of the fundamental principles of life laid down by the 'jdivine Creator. It means much to the individual, to every family, to the community, to State, to the nation and to the world. As an instance of co-operation by the Federal government J will mention the boys' corn clubs and the i girls' tomato clubs of our county. .'The Federal government has the co-operation ol the State of South ! Carolina; the State government has ' i the co-operation of the counties and the counties of the communities and | homes of and individuals among us , I You see today the results?one of j the finest exhibits of home products that can be produced, not only for quality but also for variety. Take the pimento or sweet red pepper for illustration. This vegetable is most valuable because of its digestive properties. The pimento is a child of co-operation. The Spaniards long years ago grafted the red pepper onto the tomato bush and as a result of this graft we nave a vegetable looking like the red pepper but having the pulpy rind and juice of the tomato. The Federal government recently sent one of its agents to Spain to study this plant, and when our State government lent a listening ear she was told by the Federal government: "If you will only co-operate with me I will make your State the foremost in the production of this vegetable, thereby saving the two million dollars spent I annually by your people for the canned imported product." By coj operation our State is working hand in hand with the Federal government; our county is working hand in hand with the State; the different communities are co-operating with the county and as a result you will see today in our administration building the delicious products of co-operation. I thank you for your co-operation and attention. MAYOR W R SCOTT. | Ladies and Gentlemen:?
