Show jIlE COUNTY OFFERS HOMESEEKEK rh-s- All SO. T0LOIE XXI. E DALE, UTAH, SATURDAY, t NAM ED ! HIGHWAY ASSN 1921 fair came Emery county's big close Friday with the largest t0 crowd of any of the three days in attendance speaking volumes for. the ,uccess of the fair, since largest crowds the final day are infrequent with, such events. And we believe we are absolutely safe in stating that satisfaction and enjoyment were general, which is saying quite a good deal when one takes into consideration the many and varied problems to be solved and many opportunities for disappointment. Taking the crowds as a criterion, the Emery county fair . was a much greater Success than either the Sevier or Sanpete county fairs, which preceded ours by only a few days. The exehibition room was a sight that far more than paid anyone for the trip to the fair, Emery county's products f rom garden, farm, apiary, and the home, all on display in profusion, furnishing a thrill even to those who know the county for what it is and never cease to boost for it. Along most lines there were as good or superior products on display to any raised in thp stale, and this vear's showing can be very easily surpassed in the future, with more time for preparation and better weather conditions. Nearly til of the products shown were well on the road to maturity before positive assurance of a fair was generally known, so that what was on display was such as could, be taken from the run of the field or garden. The poultry exhibition was very good but the showing of livestock was not anywhere near what it should be.- Emery county has some of the best stuff in the itate along this line and could make a wonderful showing. For the most part, the animals on exhibition were good, but a representative showing the Second Day's Races. Kid Pony Larsen 1st, Jones 2nd, Seely 3rd.

The horse racing program was perhaps the greatest drawing card of the fair and no one witnessing the races have left dissatisfied as some of the events were the best ever seen in this section. The hrohcho riding was intended as a minor feature of the fair, but, with Dave. Nordell and George Magnuson handling this feature from start to finish and also doing practically all of the riding, the exhibition was a good one and lacking In the delays and other bad features of the past. Both boys did some great riding, while the horses themselves Save all they had. Ernest Fisher, Colorado's star rider, was also present and gave a very good riding exhibition on could Hotfoot. ;.;. The free entertainment features each day were all good and held the crowd in good Charlie Chapl- shape. ' in's counterpart was fine and he was on the job every minute with his in- Tat-ton- antics and Poses. Messrs. Irvine and Hamilton, the Scotch bagpipers who have filled several vaudeville engagements both hefore and since "the World War, In which they served with other "women Irom hell" as the Germans used to call foem, gave the crowd performances that were distinctly new and much appreciated. Tony Serb, with his dancing, skating, and wrestling bear, gave cellent satisfaction, as also did Ivy Baldwin, tight wire performer, who. seemed as much at home high up there ta the air as some of the crowd were on terra firma. sThe fair authorities ere disappointed in the acrobatic act nich had been contracted for and hlch would have rounded out the program even better than was the je. They were also disappointed in the of Rex Smith and W partner with their areoplane act. Pey were supposed to be here on Fri-abut, having been scheduled with 1 'light in Wyoming on the day previous, it is supposed something interred with their coming. Word to this fect was not received until after the scheduled time of their appearance. ?he fireworks display the second evening of the fair, an entirely new I entertainment feature for practically I very bod v na g' CONCERT IS REAL TREAT The concert given in the academy the evening of the closing day of the fair under the direction of Professor Apollo Hanson, music instructor in thi academy, was attended by an excellent crowd and all those who missea it missed something that was asily the very best musical treat offered the people of Emery county in many years. From beginning to end, the program could not be surpassed and the large audience thoroughly enjoyed every number, though some of the piano numbers were so long that, but for the wonderful interpretation given them by Professor Hanson and his brother, undoubtedly would have become boresome for some. The Hanson brothers were assisted by Mrs. Apollo Hanson, reader, Mrs. Glenn Hanson, reader; Miss Nola Coons of Richfield, soprano, and Mr. . y, Christiansen of Gunnison, cellist. The music for the dance which followed ;was furnished by the Glunn players of Sevier county. Pat deal of very favorable comment, Castle Dale band and M. D. Low- the leader, may also be congratu lated on the large measure of e'nter- "ment furnished. The selections ere right uptodate and were well feDared.
