rAUK six ASHLAND TIDINGS Monday, August 10, 191 1 Children's Industrial Fair Premiums, 1914 The fair will ho held during the first week of September, 1914, at some convenient point to be deter mined upon by the committee. The purpose of the fair is to exhibit the work done by the young people of Ashland. It is hoped that the parents and the citizetiB will give this move ment their heartiest support. To make this work a success the co-operation of all parties is desired. For the product to be eligible in the competition it must be the work nt the children, not the grownups. So those in charge are asking that parents and guardians lend their hearty support to the movement and that they insist on the work being done by those competing, otherwise the whole effort is of no service.

""' SOME BYGONE JOYS. 3uch at Ash Hoppers, Greased Boots and Attic Bedrooms. Suet und soapmaklug! Also ash hop pers! Alas and alack, that venerable institution Is uo more. The modern prospectus for rural habitations aud iccessories provides no place in the landscape for that once indispensable ldjuuct to farm life uud its blessed ness. D'ye mlud the ash hopper In the back of the bouse, just urouud the paling fence? An inverted pyramid It was. into which the debris from the great replace was pojired, with buckets of water throwu ou the latter or else left to the sweet rulus from heaven. Then the lye caught lu the old Iron kettle with the piece broken out of one side it was once used for making apple but ter. After that, the soup boiling then the soap. Fine stuff, that soap took the dirt out, all right, und re moved the hide, too. If you weren't careful. But the ash hopper has goue. along with the roller towel, the mackerel kit. hog jowls, red apples aud winter tur nips. The opeu fireplace, too. has passed, before which you used to fry on one side, while icicles foruied on the other. Nor Is there uuy attic room under the shingles where the boys slept, with pap's old cavalry saddle in oue corner uud u sickly geranium roost ing precariously on the window sill. Nor do we see the bid time boots, slicked up with a mixture of mutton tallow and beeswax, which, however, didn't prevent a need for the services of four blacksmiths aud a plumber to get 'em off o' nights when the boot Jack failed. And the bootjack Itself say, when you come to thluk of It a department bulletin has got more real sentiment and "lusldes" between Its covers than can be found In Kipling's "Soldiers Three" or than Rossettl ever dreamed of In bis visions of Blessed Damozels aud that sort of thing. O. you modern housewives! Washington Post committee for that work may adopt its own regulations, which shall be final except when In conflict with these regulations. The superintendent of schools sug gests that the Ashland boys and girls undertake at least two of the follow ing projects for the state contests: a. Potato growing. Claas A 65x 100 feet, Class B 6ox55 feet. b. Corn growing. Class A 66x100 feet, Class B 60x56 feet. c. Manual arts. Any article. Class C. d. Sewing contests. Any article having both band and machine work. Classes B and C. e. Canning contest. Class A 10 varieties, Class B 5 varieties, CIbbb C 15 varieties. f. Garden contest. Classes A and B. Size of plot 26x60 feet. g. Cooking and baking contest. Two only of the ten projects are necessary for competition at the County Fair.
