TILLAMOOK HEADLIGHT, AUGUST 17. 1916
TILLAMOOK TO HAVE
GREAT BIG TIME,
o
Governor Withycombe
Opens County Fair
on Tuesday.
IN COMMUNITY, GET
TOGETHER SPIRIT.
Splendid Exhibition of
Home Products, Stock
and Amusements.
The Fair Board has promised to
have al! arrangements completed and
the Fair ready for opening at one
o’clock, on Tuesday. Those who in-
tend to take part in the fair must have
their exhibits in before- that time
This also applies to stock. The Fair
Board and those having charge of the
different departments are making
strenuous efforts to have all exhibits
in place a: the time of opening, as
people from all parts of the county
will visit the fair that dav and attend
for the purpose of hearing the gov
ernor and others talk and speak a
good word for the community spirit.
The Fair Board has made every ef
fort to make this the most successful
county fair ever held in Tillamook
county, not only in home products
and a large stock and dahlia show,
but attractions in the way of amuse-
• i nts will be many. The flying ma-
ch ne stunts every day will be a
dr. wing card. Aviator Munter will
make the first flight on Tuesday
tf jrnoon. provided the wind is favor
able, otherwise it will be made later
in the dav.
Everyone should wear a dahlia and
a pleasant smile during fair week,
and offer a glad hand to visitors who
co.ne to this city, as well as having
.): gel together, Tillamook spirit.
The Fair Board has donated $15.00
for each parade for prizes and a
«weep-steak prize of $20.00, which
will be turned over to a committee of
each association.
Scores for judging parades: Num
ber of entries, 25 points; originality,
25 points; characterization, 25 points,
deportment, 25 points.
——o------
Governor Withycombe to Open Fair.
Governor James Withycombe has
consented to come to Tillamook and
open the lair. In accepting the invi
tation to come to Tillamook it dis
commoded the governor's arrange
ments. because he has to take part in
the big event of the opening of the
railroad into Coos County next week.
But it is hard to keep the governor
away from stock shows and county
fairs, and mixing with the people who
till the soil and those who make a
: -lecialty of stock breding, for the
governor is a walking encyclopedia
i.n these i»,Iters and has done more
t< improve agricultural conditions in
Oregon than any one person in the
state, and it is in the agricultural
communities where Governor Wthy-
cotnbc is better understood and ap
preciated. It was the intention of
those having the matter in hand to
have the governor »peak on Farmers’
Day, but this could not be arranged,
as Tuesday was the only day he was
available. No doubt the dairymen and
stock men of the county will be at the
fair to give the gland hand to the
man who has clone so much for their
industries, even though it could not
be arranged that he could be here on
their day.
.
.
The governor will arrive tn T illa-
niook on Monday, on the late train,
and will be met at the depot by the
Fair Board and Mayor Brodhead,
and the president of the Commercial
Club has appointed Mr. and Mrs. C.
I. F.dv.ards, Mr and Mrs F. R. Beals.
Mt and Mrs I liad Robison, Mr. and
Mr- W I Rcichcrs, Mr. and Mrs. O.

anj Mrs. J. C. Holden oil the recep-
tit. i committee to represent the coin-
• turcitl club and the Women's Civic
Improvement League to meet the
C„.-. ■ rnor at the depot and escort
him to the hotel, giving him a good
time chile he is here, for he has
many warm and sincere friends in
1 illamook county who know that be
is trying to do the right thing by the
]. .pie ami give the state a business
like administration.
Governor Withycombe will take
part ill the business men's parade
Tuesday and will formally open the
fair with a speech at the fair grounds,
lie will leave on the afternoon train
so as to be in Eugene the next day.

the depot on the arrival of the gov
ernor, and the captain will be the
governor’s military escort while in
the city it is unfortunate that the

spirit.
