Bothwell Maupin, Oregon - Tygh Valley Fair announced for September 28-29-30. At a mass meeting at Tygh Valley, Septem ber 8th, 1920, called by the Fair board of Tygh Valley Fair As'sn. it was overwhelmingly demonstra ted that all the towns in Southern and Central Wasco county were 100 per ceut strong for a fair, de spite the fact that the promised division of the total fair fund was cut in two. WitlKouly $600 as a start it seemed ut hill work to finance the full three days' pro gram until public spirited men from different districts pledged themselves to meet the need by raisiug the required funds. The fair is iu no sense simply to be a street caroiyal but an agri cultural fair with full line of Btock and products, premiums with special school children club prizes. The raciDg bill will be more com plete, with attention to all side lines of race sports, than in form er years. ''Something Doing" is the key uote. Patriotic and educational program will start each day at 9:80 a. m., supported by a strong musical program, with no dull moments. A Whirlwind Fair on short notice.

Be reudy to aid the heads o( the committees if called on and above all let's demonstrate thai tbe Tygb Valley Fair is an annual established fact that cannot be killed by simply tbrotling the fail fund rightfully due the fuir. A strong fight 1b to bo made to oblaii the division of the funds that wat agreed upon last fall at the County Court meeting iu The Dalles.. It has been stated by good authority that Supt. Grone- wald and Frauk Driver, member of the Wasco County Fair Board, are willing to give tbe Tygh Fair tbe sum agreed upon, but that they meot with opposition by the other two members of tho board Watch for fair premium list and large posters.
