Fair Style Revue Attracts Hundreds Would Betsy Pike, pioneer wo man of the Oregon Trail, ap prove of today's fashions? Evidently not, according to the 4-H style revue held at the Mor row county fair on Thursday evening, at the fair pavilion. Over 300 people witnessed the evening show which carried out the fair's theme of "Centennial Days" according to Esther Kir mis. Morrow county extension agent. The performance was built around the story of the Jewish peddler coming to visit the pioneer woman, Betsy of Pike, and showing her his wares. A crystal ball was found among his belongings and the peddler proceeded to tell Betsy what fashions would look like in 1959. 4-H girls enrolled in clothing modeled their garments as the 1959 fashions. Complimen ting them were 4-H girls, enrolled in other than clothing, in Centen nial costumes of 100 years ago. k, A IJf "Nil 7 ,1 J.
