Instead the pennants that are usually used on occasions like this Mr. Fleming has devoted his decorations to the Nation al colors, when over 11,000 yards 01 bunting and about as many flags have Wn hrnno-ht into use. When Visitors are passing through the big entrance gates the bright colored decorations are in evidence.

Mr. Fleming has shown such artistic taste that the As sociation have contracted with him to take charge of the decorations for the 1914 fair. Secretary M. J. Lee deserves espec ial mention of his untiring efforts in making Clackamas County Fair the success this year. He has superintend ed the remodeling of the interior of the pavilion and of -the buildings on tya -mnnA as wpll as of the entries. Nearly every bit of space in the stock and poultry buildings are filled with some of the best that Clackamas County or Oregon can produce, and most of which will be taken to the Oregon State Fair at the close of the Clackamas County Fair. The exhibi tors at the fair have been treated in a cordial manner by Mr. Lee and he has left nothing undone to make the fair such a success that they will again exhibit in 1914. Judge Grant B. Dim ick also has taken an active interest in the fair. Mr. Dimick is the new president of the fair and he has in terested many of the livestock grow ers and dairymen to make entrees at the fair. The Poland Chinas from the Dimick Stock Farm are occupying the well constructed pens, and are among the leading attractions in the swine department. The Guernseys owned by w H ar.H A. I.

There were slight bruises about the head and arms, in dicating either that the old Indian had fallen from his buggy or that foul play had been committed.
