TILLAMOOK HEADLIGHT, AUGUST 24 1916. THE FAIR OPENS. Day Brought out a Big Crowd. The Tillamook County Fair opened on Tuesday, the weather being ideal and considerable interest was taken in the opening proceedings by the business men of this city, who gave the fair a real live boost and com­ mendable send off, which brought considerable money into the Fair’s treasury. This was brought about by the activity of the Tillamook Com­ mercial Club and the business men. The fair this year is well up to the average of other fairs, the lateness of the season and variable weather the past few months having much to do with the smaller display of agricul­ tural products and floral displays. Tillamook Business Men’s Paradtf. One hundred business men took part in the parade on Tuesday, and as this was the first time that they had taken part in a parade of that char­ acter it proved highly successful as well as attractive. The business men were dressed in white pants, white shirts and white hats. Preceding the procession was the band and a small delegation from the G. A. R. and W. R. C„ and following the two lines of business' men the city council occu­ pied an auto and Governor Withy­ combe, Mayor Broahcad and City Attorney H. T. Boots rode in another auto. There was only one decorated car, that of the Grand Leader. One attractive feature was a num­ ber of young girls dressed in yellow and carrying milk pails and milk stools. They drew what was supposed to be a large Tillamook cheese, one third cut. This was on two wheels, and the young milk maids came in for a good deal of applause on the line of march and at the fair grounds. The Governor SPeaks. At the meeting in the afternoon, Fred C. Baker welcomed the. people to the fair and H. T. Botts represent­ ed the Mayor and city. After making a few remarks he introduced Gover­ nor Withycombe. Governor Withycombe opened bis address by expressing bis very, very great pleasure in coming back to this great dairy country, not being an en­ tire stranger here, and ever since his first trip lias not lost faith in the future before us. The Governor par­ ticular emphasis on the necessity of the improvement of the home, the farm home particularly, the home of all homes, as he expressed it; some­ thing to keep the boys and girls at home . ml be with them always a pleasant memory. The Governor com­ mented favorably on the vast contrast between our first fairs held here and our present undertaking. He com­ mented on his being indirectly the cause, not entirely but to some extent of the consolidation of the dairymen in this community, consequent::! to which w; s the standardization and in­ creased price obtained for our com­ modities. When the Governor first came here, over the old Wilson route, he was struck at once with the sight of cows grazing on the green fields when over on the other side of the divide everything was desolate. The Governor praised in strong terms the work of the ear’y pioneers, the ones who laid the way for us, which was greeted with much applause, lie ex­ pressed his earnest hope ami desire that we should work together and soon See the time when each acre would produce enough to feed a cow and that cow would bring a return of $100 per year, which could best be realized by an intelligent study of more careful feeding, silage, etc. The Governor spoke very favorable of silage. Th'- Governor earnestly re­ quested us to overcome our local differences and work together, for there should be no friction in our community, it being to the best in­ terest of everybody to pull together. Loyalty to our county by preparing ourselves to compete successfully i with the foreign invasion of labor after the present European conflict was strongly laid before the audience. ——er---- Boosters’ Meeting. At the evening meeting H. I' Botts, Rev. Van Winkle, and D. 1. Slirodc were the local '.peakers and W. S. Raker, of Portland, spoke ...__ on the community spirit and preparedness in local matters, emphasizing the fact the entire community was made up of one family and there should be entire co-operation between all ser­ fions of fi e county. Mr. Raker dwelt principally on the importance of the beach business and what a gre-t fi­ nancial help it was to the co- v He said that 100 cars a day w< • .• coining to the county by wav of the South I road, and now that the Seaside-Tilln- mook rond was finished a large num­ ber were coming in bv that route al­ so.

Exhibits by Districts Schools. One of the most pleasing features of the fair is the exhibits by the dis­ trict schools, and although there are a large number of exhibits, every school district in the county should take part in this laudable part of the county fair, there are some very pretty school exhibits, gotten togeth­ er in fine artistic taste. Tillamook, Garibaldi, Bay City and Fairview are certainly deserving of a great deal of credit. 1 he school districts' which took part were Miami, 1 illamook, Hay City, Cloverdale, Maple Leal, Fair­ view, Garibaldi, Ginger, Crane, bandlake, South Prairie, Krebs and Long Prairie, with a booth lor mis­ cellaneous articles from other schools H/TLESS BASEBALL Remarkable Record That Waa Mad* by Cy Young tn 1904. The proud record for pitching con secutlve innings of bitless baseball is held by no less a personage than th? Hon. Denton Tecumseh Young of blessed baseball memory. Mr. Young, better known as “Cy," Is the bolder of several records In unusual feats In the pitching line. It was hack In April, 1904, that Young proceeded to shatter all figure? In this line, and before he got through he had created a new record In hurling bitless ball and one which stands to­ day clean cut and without a spot or blemish and without a doubt the great­ est piece of pitching the game ever witnessed. On April 30 against the Washington team Young took Winter’s place in the third inning, no one out, and pitched out the game, retiring the next twenty- one batsmen In order. Young’s next game took place May 5 against the Athletics. Cy pitched the best game of bls long nnd honorable career that day and retired twenty-seven of those famous swatsmen of Connie Mack in a row. In a game against Detroit on May 11 Denton T. pitched his famous fifteen Inning 1 to 0 game against the Tigers, and in the first seven innings Young set them down without a base hit This would give Cy twenty-three innings of hitless ball, or. in other words, as far as the records show, six ty-elglit batsmen stepped to the plate and were retired in succession. In that same period the big Ohioan pitched forty-eight consecutive innings where­ in ills opponents failed to get a run across the plate. After his groat no hit-no run game against the Athletics he pitched fifteen innings of runless ball, ns mentioned, against the Tigers with Ed Killian opposing him. It was a battle royal, and the clever Killian met defeat by a score of 1 to 0.—New York Sun. Nehalem Wins Dahlia Prize Nehalem won the first prize for the best display of dahlias and Tillamook second prize. Wednesday was another big day at the lair, Hie crowd being probably a little larger than the previous day, while the attendance at the evening meeting drew such a large crowd hundreds were unable to get into the building.
