Although a large number in the community did not attend, it is expected that community fairs will be an annual event with an improvement over the preceding year, for the majority of our people became very much interested in our fair which was better in some ways than the first fair held during the week. The ladies were more interest ed than the men. They had more than 500 entries in the home econom ics division while the men had leps than 200 entries in the farm crops division. There was no livestock shown and only a few pens of chick ens on exhibit on which Mrs. M. 0. Clark took first prize, and Mrs. H. S. Poole took second prize. F. P. Thomas, committe on curios and relics, had a number of exhibits and was one of the largest prize winners in the farm crops division. Mrs. Thom as was very much interested in all departments and was a handy-man with the hammer and. saw for the ladies. Gaston Kelly had a large amount of his furniture made from wood grown here on exhibit. The Bank of Jackson Springs, Sandhill Drug Co., Jackson Springs Hardware Co., W. L. Holliday, Jackson Springs Mercantile Co., and L. Freeman, blacksmith had booths that were a credit to their business. The suc cess of our fair is due to the interest manifested by the faculty of the school, and a large number of our citizens with the biggest credit going to Mrs. J. T. Ellis, president of the Community Club. She had the hearty co-operation of her committees and assistants, and every one who entered exhibits or attended. Among the largest prize winners in the farm crops division were Messrs. Chas. Diling, F. P. Thomas and L. T. 'ira- ham. Among the largest in the home economics division were Mesdames. J. E. Currie, Jno. Sullivan, J. T. Ellis and J. P. Clark. Several others were close competitors; some of those de serving special mention are: Mrs. L. J. Evans and R. L. Cullers; the latter won some premiums with good exhibits, and Mrs Cullers won some in the home economics division. They moved here from Surry county and were tenants for a few years and now own their own farm. Mrs. Evans is formerly of Bertie county and is a young housekeepei-, the wife of the cashier of the Bank of Jackson Springs who came here last summer soon after their marriage. She had a large number of entiies and was among the largest prize winners. .The success of our subscription agents was due to the high school faculty; $13.50 was realized by the agents for subscriptions to the Pilot, Moore County News, Progressive Farmer and Country Gentleman. Miss Mamie Autrey, of Autreyville, succeeded in soliciting three subscribers for the Pilot. Miss Autrey is loud in her praise of the Pilot, but her report says that every one seemed broke and were taking the News and were more interested in farm papers. i^ost did not do very much damage here last week. Mrs. J. Patterson^s cherry blossoms were not affected by the cold,' but it is now too late to have a second crop of cherries. Early apples have been known to bear tiheir second crop of fruit in - this section, but it is an unusual thing. Miss Laura Cox, of West End, opened the Pinecrest school last week.. Miss Margaret McKenzie, of near Crathge, has opened the Newbery school on Route 2, where she has taught for the past two years. Mr. and Mrs. E. T. Ammons were at home to a number of their friends at the Jackson Springs Hotel parlors on Thursday evening of last week, from 8 until 11 o^clock. Mrs. R. B. Norris, Jr., of Charlotte, spent a few days recently with her people here. ^ ’ Mrs. Colon Smith was in Rocking ham shopping last week.
