The fair board has engaged the services oi Lynn Merri and her brother as a pair of trick riders to appear at the fair Saturday and Sunday. Lynn is 17 and her brother is eight, so they are about the youngest trick riders in the business and should be a new and fresh act to Sherman countians, most of whom know something about riding. Another addition to the entertainment part of the fair is the hiring of Ken Knott to play for the dances this year. Ken has been here before and pleased everyone so should be an attraction again. He has a dance band and last time he played at the fair grounds which he will not do this year. Instead the Moro school band will play during the program. Lynn Teadtke will be back in time for the fair and will have his school band all ready for the fair. Remember this group had a concert at the school house last spring and those who heard them were enthusiastic about them. Almost every family will have a representative in the band and the kids themselves will be a show7 all to them selves. The music will be a larger part of the show than before. And in addition Ken Knott will play for two dances instead of one. rThis year the board will sponsor two dances, the Friday night dance being at the Grass Valley auditorium and the Saturday night dance being at the Wasco Legion hall. For some years but one dance was held because of some disagreement about management but that is all be hind us now and each e n d tf the county will have a dance with the same music and maybe much the same crowd. We wouldn’t know about that but Sherman countians of another day thought nothing of riding a horse or driving a buggy 40 miles to a dance and it is likely that this gen eration will drive 20 miles on a smooth road to one. • So the entertainment plans are getting along pretty I3I4I5B Friday at the fair will be a judging day but also the riding club of this area will have a horse show, not one of the draggy kind but one with plenty of competition be tween riders and between clubs. The change in fair dates made this assured. How this will be handled and what the events will be is information that will come later when the clubs get togeher and decide. The county fair is also getting the judges lined up for the different sections of the fair which is getting to be something of a job in these days. Judges used to come for the honor; now it takes cash. And most judges have to come from the extension service and they are often busy so complications always set in so that getting judges is one of the major worries of the fair board. But they think they have had a bit of luck this year because they are well assured that Eugenia Raebel of Portland, superintendent of exhibits at the Multnomah county fair, will come to judge the flower exhibits at which she is an acknowledged expert. Also coming with her will be Katie Laughton to judge Home Economics. She is none other than Mary Cullen who writes about such stuff as home economics every day in the Oregon Journal so she should know about it. Another judge who is coming is Antony S. White of Portland who is the crochet champion, having won many awards for his crocheting at state fairs. Not only is he going to come and judge but he is going to talk about crocheting and do some of it for the edification of crcheters of the county. Men may be inclined to look down their nose at Mr. White and his perfection at what is usually a feminine art but it will not be possible to overlook the fact that ° Mr. White is good at it, in fact, the best at it. And if men can take up cooking and run the little woman out of the kitchen to stir up a mess of steak or stew there is no rea son why a man can’t take up crocheting as a means of passing away the time that hangs on his hands.
