Show iFflYORS A FAIR Correspondent Points out Benefits. Editor Nation In your last issue is-sue I notice yon suggmt a county coun-ty fair next fail. It would cer- tamiy oe beneficial if we could have such a tiling. Of course it will mean a great deU of labor. I think Cache county is entitled to a county fair next fall. It will then be eleven years since we had a fair. I believe it would encourage one to try and excel the other, and if we are to have one, it ought to be agitated at once, so that the people could commence now to prep ire for it. Our young people especially ought to do something. Many spend idle moments that could be; made good use of. Boys, do not waste your time. Begin thinking. Try to invent or cre-iate cre-iate something. At an exhibition exhibi-tion like we ought to have in this fnir valley of Cache, with its : :-ice of exhibition here in this 1 1- mtiful city of ours, there is U, pie room fur every body the i fr--.

It is therein that we benefit ourselves, a prize as I look upon it, is simply sim-ply given as an inducement to set an individual to wortr. A great man said at one time, if he who reigns supreme, should hold in his one hand truth, and in his other hand the search for truth, I would ask for the search -for truth, which would b"1 the better for me. . Therefore, if we may Ib5 fsvCi'fd Vrith. a county fair, let us not work for the prize alone, but rather that we may excel in our products and workmanship, work-manship, and if we U-v to do so, we are certain to make our exhibition exhi-bition a success. Those who favor a ounty fair next fall, say aye. Opposed, no. The ayes have it. (J.V. |
