The Stay ton Third Annual Indus­
trial School Fair, which is to open up
tomorrow morning and last until SatS
urday night, Oct. 7, will be by far the
1 heat one since the movement was star­
ted three years ago. if the number and
■ variety of exhibits that are pouring in
today (Thursday) have anything to do
with it.
It it expected that the attendance
will far outnumber that o f any pre­
vious year. The exhibit will be held in
the Opera House instead of the old
school building as stated, as the light­
ing facilities of the latter are entirely
lacking at night, and it was found last
i year that the evening visitors were
I numerous.
Besides the fsir on Friday and Sat­
urday, almost every merchant In Stay-
ton, has put on a special list of bar-
gains for the last day, which will at­
tract the saving ones in great num­
bers. A careful perusal of the pages
of the Mail this week will convince
«■ven the most skeptical that Stayton
is the beat place to trade in the valley.
Fred Lockley, special writer for th*
Oregon Journal, was in Stavton last
week in the Interest of the proposed
Eastern Oregon State Normal School
at Pendleton. “ When I first came t*
