Every one interested in the development and welfare of the county should take an active part in making the far the biy yet-to-jrether event that it is intended to be, has been and will he. The benefits of a County Fair to its county and citizens are manifold. Only tl^- best ef' , forts of the county's best representatives are shown. Thus farmers have an opportunity of seeing for themselves i what others have done under practically the same conditions of weather and soil as they, themselves, have worked; but often with widely differing results. It annually brings people from the far ends of the county together, bent on wholesome amusement, which is as necessary to human happiness as an innocent conscience; anu, while furnihsintr enter tainment it imparts knowledge. Nothing can be better for a community, especially a farminj; community, than social con" act. The narrow-minded cannot help increasing; the firth of the mental altitude if thrown in contact with the l>roa<l-min<le<l. The into!' rant necomes more tolerant when witnessini; he harmlessness of those of different opinions; the hifoted are forced to admit that there may he some ( xcuse for the existanee of those whose lives do not conform to the canonized standards. In plainer words, the County Fair is a County reunion, where care is laid aside and the mind is open and receptive both to pleasure and education. | The Chesterfield County Fair is self supporting . No funds are so-[ licited. The jrentlemcn who have financed it through its infancy and its dubious flays are still handling the reins and whatever money may accrue from its receipts will yo to improve the grounds and provide better entertainment arid biffcr prizes in tile future. Their train will come through the food that the Fair does Chesterfield County. The Che terfield Base Hall Club has done much to advertise our town throughout the State. It has com j??-1!?*<1 the respect and admiration of all thi- town - and cities adjacent hereto and has established a reputation for jilayini- the National game that will he hard to live up to. In twelve panics played, when this is written, one wa- a tie and two were lost. Thus, eliminat inp: the tie, our hoys won nine out of eleven; a percentage of a fraction over eighty one, if our auditing department figures correctm ly. Sonietinte atro th question was asked: "Why should the spirit of mortal he proud?" We don't know unless it he because our town has a hall team like it has. Other communities may boast of their water works, their sprinkhnv ?arts and their k?'"I streets , hut, by Oeor'c, as the late fob Roosevelt was wont to say, we can put the f'hest erli?dd leant atrainst the l;e.st they have ami make them ! feel sick. | HI,EASE QU'TS Evirhuitly Hole I. {.lease has seen j the handtvdinj? on the wall. He has i issued a statement eorit radiet in^ his announcement tnat he would be a candidate at tin- regular election, but rmt subject to the Democratic primaries, to till the vacancy in f'onpress made by tne resignation of Hon. A. ] '. I.ever. Mr. lilease says the candidates now u thi? r.,.1.1 1?1 ... ... iiiwdiu inil n K him for In ' h1'linl ramiidacy, as, otherwise they would have had noth-I ing to talk ahout. They evidently talked to good purpose, for they not only convinced his support er.s, hut convinced Blerse, himself, of the hope- i lessness of entering the rare. Thus, it would seem, the last political aspi- i ration of Cole Blease has been consigned to the place where the wood- j bine twirnth and whangdoodle mourneth. . A PRACTICAL PRAYF.R i The prayers of the Chaplin of Congress sometime lake a very practical turn. Recently profiteering and the high cost of living got special mention in the prayer in Congress of Chaplin Coudon. ile said: "Our Fai.her in heaven, we lift up our hearts in gratitude to Thee that measures are being put into practice to alleviate the unparalleled conditions existing in our country; that the authorities will look into them jyitty a view of cutting down the high ma Wear?life?servk age?safety?comfor are the things that a tire.
