HOTEL MAUPIN Under New Management The Tyffh Valley Fair of South ern Wasco county has again been realized -eiKht consecutive years -with an agricultural fair, Btock and other exhibits as required to fulfill the true spirit and pur pose and meet the demands of a county agricultural fair. Lt us look back over the year that has gone. From an agri cultural standpoint we were never entitled to a good fair more than in 1920. A cloud was thrown over the southern part of the county by the severe cut in the fair fnnrs for the eighth an nual fair at Tyfh Valley. It staggered us to think of financ Ing a fair on $000, but public won out. The enthusiam of Southern Wasco county spread northward toward The Dalles until the county superintendent and county court and fair board swelled the fund to 925.00. The balanci had to be made up from gate receipt!) and personal pledg es. The fair has been held and no debts incurred. This speaks well for ihe people and the fair management. What abfit the exhibits? They were below standard, not De cause we lacked the products no - but du to the damper thrown over the district by the announcement that the fair had been killed by the action of the board. . We did the best we could but what about next year ;' it is not too early nor is it too late now to think of our fair for 1921. Sunday the fair board and others who are public spirited will meet at Tygh Valley to con sider the next fair. The departments of the fair are many and must each he handled by a committee hem. who is responsible for the work of the department. The committee on concessions will know 30 to 60 days before the next fair dale all about the shows. Committee on races and sports will know just what program- races, games and contests are to go on and a separate race pro gram will be published and scat tered broadly in advance. Thus through the several departments the good work must be done to insure success for 1921. Exhibits must be thought of at seed time and from then to har vest must be carefully studied and selected and kept against that day of the fair. Any less loyalty or service will spell fail ure for the exhibits. The stock, fowls, swine and rabbits, etc, must be found. Many good horses, stock and hogs this year did not appeal that should have been featured. A man cannot say he is 100 per cent loyal who with holds bit (to last page) ir Wamic town property for sale.
