PARISH FAIR ISEVEN BETTER INSOME RESPECTSTHAN BEFORE

School Parade and PoultryShow Win High Com-

ment As Best Ever

FRIEDLANDERORANGE EXHIBIT

MVIany Departments ExceedLast Year, But Stock

Show Fails

The School Exhibit.The sebool exhibit at the Parish

Fair this year was superior over alt

other exhibits of past years. There

was a very lively interest displayed

in all competitive work, and most ofthe teachers were on hand when thejudges were looking over the work.

The booths were beautifully and.artiaticaizy arranged, and the entirehall had a festive appearance.

Visitors Swarmed into the build-ing the four days of the fair and fav-,orable comments were heard on allSides.

The Covington High School cap-tured the cup for the most artistic,cotn; Madisonville a cup for thebest school with over four teachers;'l'alisheek a cup for the three-roomschools; Abita Springs for the bestv isiting school in the parade. Cov-ington High also won the athleticcup, and Mrs. V. Z. Young's roomwon tire cup given by School Leaguefor best appearance in parade. Cov-ialgon High and Slidell High carriedalmost equal honors in ribbons, thefirst named being a little in the lead."Jandeville had a splendid exhibit,but worked at rather a disadvantage,having to put in as a Junior and Hight;chool. Madisonville, Folsom, Cen-tral, Pearl River, Audubon and Sun

ill made a -splendid showing andshared in the ribbons.

It is to be regretted that no one-room or two-roam schools exhibited,as we had a lovely silver cup for eachin the competitive work.

St. Scholastica's, St. Catharine, ofMadisonville, Our Lady of the Lake,Mandevjille, all had booths with theirusual excellent work dnd capturedsilver cups and ribbons.

We want to thank all teachers andpupils and supporters and helpers inthe work on School Day. To saythat it was a success, is speakingmildly, and it is all due to the won-derful spirit shown.

MRS. J. C. BURNS,Chairman Educational Dept.

We publis below part of the awardsat the fair. The others have notyet been completed and will be puo-

.Jished next week.In many respects the fair was bet-

ter than last year. There was moresystem, there were no disturbancesof any kind, and while there wassome disappointment in not havingthe hal oan and aeroplane stunts, itwas unavoidable and in no way at-tributable to the fair management.The midway still offered opportunityfor a lively time.

Mrs. C. S. Engle refused to takeany commission for her work "andbesides gave each of the deaf mutesof Chinchuba a doll, and let it benoticed that the boys were just asanxious to get the dolls as the girlswere and had a good tinme with them.There were 55 dolls. Mr. Gibbsgave each of the mutes three freerides and Mr. Troy gave each a toyballoon.

The dismal disappointment wasthe stock department. Had It notbeen for a few kind foliks who want-ed to help things along, there wouldhave been nothing, and these exhib-ftors are deserving of the heartythanks of all. Ticks are given thelblame for this failure. Cattle o:value could not be safey brought intoa tick infested district.

'lhe p~oultry show was a credit-and would have been to any fair inthe state. It was the finest poultryshow we have ever had. We havepublished pictures of some of thewinners, whose names will he foundin 11e list of awards. Others thatwe tried to get failed because of thedarkness in the interior and the factthat chickens could not be kept stillong enough for the exposures.

We also give a view of Mr. Fried*lander's display of oranges suited tothe climate of and grown-in St. Tarn-many par sh. Mr. Friedlander isdoing wonderful work in this indus-try. It is said that he can hardlytupply the trees in demand. -

The agricultural display was goodin quality, but was not as large aslast year. This is said to be due tonot having a farm agent to get outamong the farmers and encouragtthem to grow for exhibition.

Both President Warner and Secre-tary Mlnckler worked hard for suc-cess, and at least financially putthings through. With proper co-operation, the fair would have beemithe biggest on record in ever'y way.

The educational department andthe women's department, as well asthe women- whfo fed the hungry, drcde'vrving of credit.

The band was fine and the danemug wa greatly enjoyed.

Mr. Beavers bad some beautifulStudebaker Six's on exhibition thesecond day. They did not reach here Ifor the opening and were thereforenot mentioned last week.

Mr. Beavers won two of the aut'araces and Mr. Henry Levy two. Tit (for tat.

These letters have beenturned over to proper governmentofficials and a search will be madefor the writer. The.-lffalty is quitesevere.

While one of the letters is signed"K. K. K." it Is readily understoodthat such crude and bungling' workcould not be attributed to that order.It is thought the author of these let-ters will -soon be in hand.
