Although several fairs have been held there still seems to be some mis understanding as to the use of the fair funds, so a word of explanation will be given. Oregon law provides for a tax of 1-20 of a mill for fair funds. This gives Morrow county $600. One hundred and thirty dol lars is used at Heppner at the wool and grain show. The balance is used for the North Morrow County fair. This money can be used for premiums only and can not be used for even a telephone call or paper of pins. The fair dance is given for the purpose of raising funds for the printing, en 'ry tags, pins and other incidentals. The members of the fair board -and superintendents of the various de partments and assistants, the judges, all who help with the fair, do a con siderable amount of woik and come in for no remuneration and more or less criticism. Anyone is entitled to enter articles in the fair whether he be a member of the fair board or not. Lee Mead and C. H. Dillabough de serve an unlimited amount of credit for their zeal in working for the fair. .

The Switchboard A WEB of cords that end in numbered holes. x- A hand poised ready to answer signals which flash from tiny lamps. A mind, alert for prompt and accurate performance of a vital service. A devotion to duty inspired by a sense of the public's reliance on that service. Every section of a telephone switchboard typifies tne co-ordination of human effort and mechanism that makes possible America's far reaching telephone service. Its cords link for instant speech those who are separated by a continent. Its guardian operator is one of an army of telephone men and women vigilant to meet a nation's need for communications. In plant and personnel, the Bell System is in effect a vast switchboard serving a nation that has been transformed into a neighborhood through telephone growth and development.
