To the Boys and Girls:
The earlier school fairs are already
being held and at the end of another
month most of them will be a matter
of history. Every one connected
with the work is anxious that that
history read satisfactorily. This is
about the last opportuity we shall
have to call your attention to your
exhibits for most of your work has
already been done.
Just a word about exhibiting. The
intrinsic value of the prize you are
competing for is of little import
ance compared with the habits of
industry you are forming and the
experience you are gaining in learn
ing how to do some practical thing
well. If you borrow something to
show or take something to the fair
you have not raised or made, you
will fail to get the value out of it
that you shold. Do not understand
that you should take nothing to the
fair that is not entirely the product
of your own effort. Some of the
fairs, especially those arranged for
late in the season, do not reqire you
to do all the work. W'here this is
the case I would urge you to take
everything you can under the rules
that will make a good showing.
Take pride in assisting to make
your fair a success. Where, the
rules require that you do all the
work yourself, as they do at the
state fair, do not try to evade them.
We might deceive every one but
ourselves, but a clean conscience is
worth everything. If we never do
the first little dishonest trick, we
will avoid a lot of trouble in this
life, .' This is on the same principle
as never taking the first drink to
avoid being a drunkard. It is a
safe rule.
Do not overlook the county and
district prizes at the state fair. It
is a fine thing to cultivate local
pride and patriotism. Team work
aids in developing this spirit, so
join with your fellows and do your
part to help your district and your
county to have the banner exhibits.
Co-operation is becoming more es
sential every dry, and you can not
begin too early in life to "practice it.
Wishing you all success, and hoping
to meet a great many of you at the
fair, I remain,
Yours for better boys and girls,
C. N. Maris,
Field Worker Industrial Fairs.
