GRANGE FAIR A SUCCESS.
The Oswego Grange held its annual
fair on Saturday, the 12th, and as
usual made a success of It. The fun
eral of Mr. Evans, who was grand
father of the worthy L. A. T., and was
hurled that day, took many away from
the fair. Hut in spite of that fact
there was a very good attendance on
this occasion.
Then the couuty fair was lu session,
and It took a good many away who
would otherwise have been there
still It was a success. The display
was really creditable and would com
pare favorably with county and even
the state fair. Those people know
how to go after anything of that
kind and always give one the worth
of their money.
"Can a rich man enter Into the
kingdom of heaven T" " Yes," an
swered the wise old Parson Broil-
head. ' but not on a technicality."
