He also says that lie big city is getting top heavy and is doomed and he believes that the own of 5,090 to 10,000 will gain by the reconstruction of things connect*l with business if they take ad 'antage of the chances. We haven't inderstood for several years why manufacturing concerns put up with 'he high overhead an<l the many inconveniences of the large cities when they can locate in towns like Decatur. where all the advantof good railroad facilities, excellent highways, schools, churches and everything else, where , they can live an«l bi eath piyre air, make more money and be happier. . The oh) fashioned county fair does not meet the demands of today but the county fair which is up to date Is more popular now than ever, in the history of the middle west. That’s the opinion of E. B. Williamson who will have charge oi the Northern In diana Fair wkich will bo held here September 15th to 18th. He will havA here a Purdue exhibit unequalled anywhere prior to that date except at the state fair. He will specialize on agricultural exhibits, those things of greatest interest to the farmers, tcwill show the work of the varlou ; schools and along with that will pro vide entertainment eveuf kiiid’ with a big night show, fireworks, features and entertainments. We feel the community is fortunate to secure the services of a man like Mr. Williamson and we. hope those, who believe in getting together with the farmers will take advantage of tills opportunity and help to make the week ot September 15th a memorable one here.
