This fair was the premier, being the first to organize, and from its ] very inception was pushed and adver- j tised by the livest wires in Mt. Crog- s han township. It must have been a source of great satisfaction to these workers to view the excellent displays that their T efforts brought together. There was a well-prepared and varied display of farm products here as at Macedonia, < which ought to teach every one who I viaif +-V\ .-ion U.^.11 vntat piatco mat Lilt: UUl 1 weevil need have no terrors for these ectionB.

Croghan people hink of woman's qualifications for roting at the polls, they must all igree that she can supply the needed telp to make a community fair a iucccss. It was the same at all three :ommunity fairs and will be the same it the big County Fair now opening: iVithout the help of the women, the nen could do nothing. An excellent program of speaking ind field events had been arranged 'or this event and not a hitch marred he smoothness of the arrangements. Dr. Daniel, professor in English at ^lemson College, delivered an address hat will be long remembered. His ntroduction was a machine-gun fire )f jokes, told with consummate art. lis speech on "Community Building," vas inspirational and inspiriting, mnctured with laughter-provoking llustrations. If Chesterfield County iocs not recall Dr. Daniel for another ipeech at the first opportunity, she vill be the loser. In the matter of exhibits, wo beieve Mt. Cro'ghan, like Macedonia md Middendorf, was surprised at the juantity and excellence of the cxhibts brought out. The canned goods, he fancy work and the farm products lot to mention the cooking, were a oy to behold. The officers of the Mt. Croghan ?air Association are: Pres., J. H tatliff; vice-pres., W. H.

M1DDENDORF 1 There can be no complaint if we ( hand the blue ribbon to the Middendorf community in advance on this one point: they have brought together an excellent exhibit in the shortest time of any of them. For only ten days had their organization existed when the fair was held on November 4th in the handsome new school building To the officers, Messrs. J. B. Sims, Otto Johnson and Miss Alma G. Perry, should go the highest praise for their energetic work and to the people ef the community for their hearty cooperation. The speaker of the day was Prof. Victor E. Rector, principal of the Antioch Industrial School. Mr. Rector is a speaker of no mean ability and his address was given careful attention and heartily applauded by his hearers. The exhibits were excellent. In quantity they far exceeded expectations and the quality will compare favorably with those who had more time to prepare. Some of the nicest livestock seen i during last week's fairs were the Duroc Jersey hogs and the two beautiful horses brought to Middendorf by Mr. K. C. Johnson.
