The first agricultural fair ever held by and for the people of Williamsburg county took place here last week under the direction and management of the officers of the Williamsburg County Fair Association. Taking into consideration the facts, that it was our first fair, then admitting our inexperiencein promoting such a gigantic undertaking and the uncertainty of the financial plans upon which it was to be carried out, it has been a marvelous success and The Record extends hearty congratulations to the association, its officers and the entire citizenship of the county upon their remarkable accomplishment. To President W E Nesmith, Secretary Geo A McElveen and members of the executive committee belong much praise for making the fair what it was. They had a big proposition confronting them from the very outset. It was not intended as a money-making scheme, and there - was no working capital to start off with beyond the pitance realized from membership fees in the association which was organized about eighteen months ago, Uarofm thof ujhiph has lust been accoraj li *hed in the way of a real county fair was made possible only I by an < a-nestness of purpose on the part of those officers and members and an unaltering faith in their fellow citizens of Williamsburg. Doubtless there were some mistakes made in bringing the great undertaking to a reality by those in charge of the project, but those mistakes have been profitable lessons,inasmuch as we will be so much better fitted by experience to face the proposition in 1916, when, we believe, with the present organization a larger and grander exhibition of the county's resources will be brought together for the enjoyment and enlightenment of our citizens in general. The fair just held was the greatest advertisement Williamsburg county has ever put before the people of the country, and today the progress of Williamsburg | citizens is being watched with a more critical eye than ever before by the -agricultural interests of the United States. We cannot afford now to go one step backward but must push forward, and we believe the citizens of the county are aroused ito the importance of making their county fair a permanent institution with bigger and better results from year to year. It is hoped that every one interested, especially every member of the association,will be present at the Fine Healthy C Convi Simple Inexpensive Remedy Cbecks Early Tendency to Constipation. About the first thing impressed on the young mother is the necessity for regularity in her baby, which brings up the question of the most desirable laxative for children's use.

She writes, "My little son, William, Jr, just loved it because it is so pleasant to take, and everybody talks about his being such a | fine healthy boy."

A minister of the gospel, the Rev A H Griffith, who lives at Reedville, S C, near Spartanburg, recently made a statement concerning Tanlae, the celebrated new medicine now being introduced in Kingstree.

When ! in Columbia recently en route home^ he said: "It was in Charlotte, N C, where, I first heard of Tanlac and bought | my first bottle. I was suffering from ! nervousness and .stomach trouble, j The strain of the hard work I have been doing was beginning to tell on ' me. I had heard that Tanlac was a ' splendid tonic and decided to try the medicine. ' j "Under the strain of preaching ; 1 j twice a day in for three weeks in 1 j Winnsboro I believe that I would ': ' have broken down had it not been 'for the Tanlac.
