Show The biggest disappointment of the Centennial is knowing that there won't be an adult division di-vision in the fair on Friday. The Centennial Committee had planned this added attraction, and it was agreed upon, but those in the extension office, and the others put in charge of this portion of. the fair, decided that there was nothing in the area worthy of showing and so cancelled the adult portion of the fair. o We certainly disagree with this, and are sure that the ladies of the area have much handiwork handi-work to display plus many flowers flow-ers and some produce. But the decision was made and by the time we learned of it it was too late to give adequate publicity and change the decision. de-cision. o We were also .sorry to hand cut such rmall portions at the barbecue, but under the- circumstances, circum-stances, it was all that could be done to try to take care of as many neople a we could. We- heard only one complaint the ugh and so feel that most people understood the situation. 500 pounds of meat were cook-in cook-in anticipation of 600-800 people peo-ple and with the weather, there were some mighty nervous committee members who were worrying more about how to dispose dis-pose of a lot of left overers and the problem at hand never entered anyone's mind, until it was upon us. To anyone who got short rations we're sorry! One thing for certain we'll know just what to do next time around! |
