* What The Community Fair *
Does For Our Community *
? ?
* Sarah Leigh Vick, of the Men- ?
* la High School, won two first *
* prizes on hey composition which *
* is printed below. At the Hert- *
?- ford County Fair and at the ?
* Menola Community Fair, prizes *
* were awarded to her for setting *
* out the benefits derived from the *
* popularized community fair. *
* The composition is as follows: *
* What good is a community *
* fair to a community? What does ?
* our community fair do to us? *
* It brings the people together in- *
* to one body, where they learn *
* co-operation. *
* Our fair each year helps us ?
* in the following ways. First, *
* officers are elected, for the pur- *
* pose of building an outline for * I
* the fair. This gives a chance *
* to develop personal originality. *
* Then we, the community, go by *
* this outline. Second, it shows "*
* what we can do. And what we *
* are doing at home. We can pickle, ?
* and preserve different things. *
* We make cakes, pies, and other *
* dessert. Some have one way of *
* making things and others have *
? other ways. When we bring *
* them out to the fair, they are put *
* where they can be seen. By ?
* this, the different methods 9t *
* the various people are shown *
* and new ways to cook are learn- *
*ed. * Third, we bring chickens ?
* and cattle out. This shows what *
* we have and what we are inter- *
* ested in. Fourth, fancy work of *
* all descriptions is brought. The *
* ones that crochet, learn differ- *
* ent rules of crocheting. Croch- *
* eting isn't all that Is brought out. ?
* There is tatting, hairpin trim- '
* ming, old-timy bed quilts, and *
* counterpanes and other different '
* things. By bringing this out *
* we show community spirit And '
* by our drawings, compositions '
* and etc., we show school spirit '
* All of this goes to help make the *
* community. ? t *
* All of this shows what good *
* our community fair is to our *
* community. It shovfe \coopera- *
* tion, good spirit and educational *
* development *
