SCHOOL FAIR HUB GREATEST SUCCESS EVER

CHOVVN rOINT. INC. Oct. 17. The Second Annual Agricultural School Fair held at the I,ake County Fair Grounds. Oct. 12th and 13th. 1917. Mas the greatest successful display of high class Agricultural Products ever grown and shown in the county. There were 4 0 schools represented with exhibits from their districts that made Floral nnd Agricultural Halls look Joke we ned a new building'to exhibit things in. The booths were so crowded that the schools could not show their products to the best advantage. Everyone who visited the fair grounds pronounced it the best Agriculturtl exhibition they had even seen. Wn had the kind of a fair that makes men and women out of our boys and girls." Mrs. CTias. Sewell. the lady speaker, pronounced it better than the same department at the State Fair this year. Mr. Kern the man speaker t-aid it was the best country agricultural exhibition he ever saw. We can do thir.gs agriculturally In this county even though some do oppose the work. The two speakers were the judgc-s and they pronounced the task as the hardest they ever tackled because of the high class of- products and the large classes. There were as many as 32 in some classes. The speaking was very much up-to-date and could only be appreciated by being heard. ' Too much credit can not be given to the parents who supported the children and the schools in this greatest event of its kind ever held here or in the state. The only way to get anything out of anything is to do something towards helping it along. "Washington school wen first on school winning most prizes and largest variety in display. They were first last year. Shelby came second with a fine exhibit from the school garden that showed potatoes treated and not treated. It pays to do things right. Srhneider was third with products of all kinds. This is remarkable for this county to be producing from the duck ponds a few years ago. Saxony was fourth and the same might, be said of her country. Hessvllle was next with honors. " Lincoln school had a fine exhibition from the school garden. And so it foee with credit to all the schools. Their work was f.rst class and I never saw a better pleased crowd after It was all over. Ve have certainly done our part agriculturally in this great world-wide war movement. Shouldn't we have some support from the county? The county agent has no office help and his bills of expense jare unpaid for the year for this greater food production campaign. We want to thank Fred Ruff of the Chamber of Commerce for taking care c! and judging the poultry department. Ben Hayes is entitled to credit for the support nnd help he gave us at the fair grounds. He is a booster and progressive enough to be our next Mayor. Su?t. Helghway was on the job all the time. Our co-operation was fine and next year the school fair will be second to rone. S. J. CRAIG.

How I Am Doing My Bit to Help America Win the War.

BT X.. J. FX.AX2T (Trackman, Burlington Bouts) (Wrlten for the United Press) CHICAGO. Oct. 16. It's my job to help keep the tracks fixed up smooth and straight for the trains to run on. The big trains of Uncle Sam's boys are now going ovtT the road, and the coal and lumber and food all for the government makes me want to help more than ever. I keep my eyes open for spreading or broken rails, low joints and loose spikes or nuts and bad ties. And I watch the bridges, too, to see that all is right, for if anything was wrong it might cause a bad delay and that would never do. Then I look at the fills and cuts to see that rains haven't hurt them and I watch out for soft track. When a train passes. I look after it to see if any brake beams or air-hose or anything drags. I look out for swinging doors on freight cars and to see that nothing falls on the tracks from trains that pass. In fact I just do everything I can think of to make the rails safe and smooth so that our trains will get there on time. I am on the Job or ready to be at all times of the day and night, any time In the year, for if there is a chance for storms or washouts or any other thin or reason why the track may need fixing I want to be right there till the track is all fixed O. K. again and the trains can get through safe. Every foot of the track Is looked, at at least once a day so that we are sure it is O. K. and safe to carry the big trains. I know that much depends on doing my work right. I know that by keeping my eyes on the track all the time I am doing my bit to help our big road help Vncle Sam win the big war.
