NUMBER Recently the Office of Transportation In Washington requested that all fairs and celebrations be cancelled for the duration. This, together with the fact that no concessions were available and the shortage of labor, which would necessarily lessen the displays, led the fair board and county commissioners to reach the agreement to cancel this year's event. Similar actions have been taken by many other fair and celebration boards. Recently the Garland Lions Club announced there would be no Wheat-BeDays this year.
