PLANNING BIGGEST STATE FAIR IN THE j HISTORY OF STATE (Continued from Page One) clothing, fine arta, and numerous commercial exhibits. Aside from the main building exhibits there will b? dairy cattle, beef cattle, and sheep. Exhibits in these departments have doubled in the past three years. The swine exhibit will be very large and attractive, premiums being offered in this department for five breeds. In quantity it will exceed 400 exhib its. They poultry exhibit, one of the largest in the South, will consist of over 3, <00 chickens. "The 1932 dog show will be well worth the consideration of Fair-go ers. Last year's exhibit consisted of 187 dogs of practically all breeds and an even larger exhibit is assured for this year. Glide Shows "The Carnival for the 1932 State Fair is the WiHJm Glick Shows, Inc. This is the initftil appearance of this famous carnival in Raleigh. Thirty five 72-foot steel cars are required to bring this massive show to this city, and it consists of 10 rides, 20 shows, 100 concessions, and an aggre gation of 500 people to take care of its varied interests. "For entertainment and amusement the very best in free acts has been secured. May Wirth and company, conceded to be the greatest equestrian act in America, will be seen twice daily in front of the grandstand. This act has been played for years with the world's greatest circuses. The Great Waliendas, world's greatest high-wire artists and late feature with the Ringling Brothers-Barnum and Bailey Circus, now playing in Europe with the Olympia Circus, Lon don. Three Kressells, aerial and acro batic novelty, two unique and sep arate acts, consisting of wonderful hand-to-hand balancing in most diffi cult feats. "The Medini Trio, a new Euro pean novelty direct from Berlin, with their sensational ladder act. An ab solutely new and modern act. English Steppers "Sixteen English Steppers, an en semble of dancing and acrobatics, the last word in youth, beauty, and grace, executing the most sensation al and intricate of modern dances. Royal Scotch Highlanders, America's best exposition band, unequaled and unsurpassed in brilliant musical en tertainment. This band has played all leading State fairs and expositions of America and Canada and furnish ed concerts for more than 800 civic clubs throughout the country. Ernie Young's Revue, an attraction thai never disappoints and never fails Ernie Young, the creator and origi nator of revues for fairs, brings his gigantic night revue, consisting ol 60 beautiful and accomplished chorus girls, to the North Carolina State Fair. Dainty costumes adorn a wealth of golden-voiced singers. The indi vidual soloists and featured perform ers of this Passing Parade of 1932 comprise a group of artists from all nations. Every member of the entire oast of this stupendous attraction is the utmost to be desired in talent and versatility. Every chorous girl in this tremendous revue is a graduate of Ernie Young's School of Dancing. It is interesting to note that Joan Craw ford. Ruth Etting, Georgia Hale, Sal Iy Rand, and a long list of other pub lie favorites graduated from his fam ous school. It is the greatest produc tion of its kind now playing in Amer ica. "Each night, immediately after the revue, there will be a stupendous fire works display of aerial and scenic spectacles. This finale of the enter tainment program will prove sensa tional and satisfying to all of the pat rons of the State Fair, as it has here tofore. Horse Racing _ "The horse racing at the North Carolina State Fair will be of the same high-class type, with fast-step ping trotters and pacers, as in recent years. The Raleigh race track is one of the best in the world and holds o? Te ,r,ecorcJ, of the world for Pae 1910 by May E. Grattan, this record ers, half-mile tracks, 2:01, made in being held jointly by Dan Patch, Sin gle G. Winnipeg. and May E. Grat tan. This track also holds the South Atlantic States half mile track record for trotters, 2:05, made in 1931 by Great Atlantic. "In every way this year's Fair will be well balanced and worthy of re peated support. General admission prices have been reduced to 50 cents for adults and 25 cents for children. I he season ticket, with 12 admissions two for each day of the week, day or night? can be purchased at the low price of $2. College students' tickets are reduced to 25 cents, and children at night only 15 cents. In audition, the management will place on sale general admission block tick-1 ets for 51, good for any day or night of the week The season ticket and the block ticket, however, are pre f air tickets and cannot be purchased after midnight, Saturday, October 8." HANGING OUT ON $!l ? MAIN STREET . | By A. lounger For a quarter of a century, more or less, we hove been studying and observin' folks around us and have I learned ? nothin'. And it ain't our ' fault. There just ain't no set rule for behavior of the human race and es pecially these "modems." The reac tion of any given individual to any given occurrance is never the same, despite what sicologists say about the matter. Example: We asked our friend to let us have five bucks and he did; the next, time we made the request he refused and without any apparent excuse other than the mere ! fact that we had never paid back the 1 first five. All individual reactions is just variable. ?? ? ....And now Glenn Millar's gone. ( Some day he'll be a doctor and maybe | do som$ cuttin'-in, what is cuttin'-in F.

Prof. Glazener has been working toward this end during the past few weeks and it looks as though there will be an un usually fine fair here this year. And not a little praise is to go to the young farmers for the part they will play in it.

Mr. Glazener asked i'or several : opinions as to putting on a fair in Brevard last of the month. A vote was taken and it was decided to enter the Boyd township exhibits in sepa rate booths if possible. After the in- I formal discussions on the fair, Miss Wilcox, home economic instructor and demonstration agent addressed the Women's Auxiliary in a separate , room. Mr. Glazener then presented to the : men some valuable information on winter cover crops, discussing the three legumes, crimson clover, vetch and Austrian winter peas. The lat ter seems the most desirable legume 1 according to Mr. Glazener's state ments. It has several points of value over the others. It produces a large amount of foliage and can be turned under earlier than vetch or clover. Some Penrose farmers are expecting to try out this A. W. Pea this winter. If it can do in this altitude several people should give it a trial because it has made wonderful good elsewhere. Seeding it not so expensive, PENRiESfMTS OFF TO COLLEGE Several of our young folks are to go away to school again this week. Wilson Middleton is entering his freshman year at Furman Universi ty, Greenville, S. C. Wilson Lyday goes to W. C. T. C. Cullowhee, N. C., Miss Marie Case will enter her second year in the Asheville Normal., Ernest Brow# left Saturday to finish his last year at Mars Hill college. Leon Ly day will enter his Junior year at A. and E. college, Raleigh. Ralph Case is in high school at Mills River. And this is odd: Mr. N. A. Drake of the lower Penrose section has a son in Brevard high school, a daugh ter in Mills River high school and another daughter in Etowah high school. Maybe it doesn't matter where they all scatter these days. This week the Penrose school chil dren will buy their photographs made a few days ago. They are all good. The boys and girls have been work ing industriously to prepare a better play ground and to beautify the school front. Besides good play ground the children have an aim to make everything neater in appearance doing better than last year. Parents should help in this also as it may mean much for the school in days to come. Some were out for fodder last week. Parents should not take children from school to fodder, if there is any other possible way out. Missing school puts the child behind and causes loss of interest and maybe the rest of his schooling too. POSTMASTER NICHOLSON'S FATHER CRITICALLY ILL Mr. M. Nicholson, father of Post master R. L. Nicholson, is critically ill at his home in Brevard. His child ren are constantly with him during the past few days. MEETING OF FAIR COMMITTEE Prof. Glazener requests that all the committees in the communities where he has been working out plans for the Sylvan Valley fair meet at the court house Saturday at 2:30 p. m. It is urged that all these committees attend as the meeting is important. UNFILLED ORDERS According to reports, the unfilled orders of the United States Steel cor poration increased 3,293 tons on Aug ust 31 over the unfilled orders at the first of the month. These orders, tot alling 1,969,595 tons how the first gain in more than 17 months. ACTIVITY OF STATE HIGHWAY AFFAIRS RESENTED BY LABOR (Continued from Pag* One) workers and their employers, and that the highway patrol forces ought not be brought upon the scene with their machine guns and their tear bombs. The further charge is being made that members of the State highway patrol are, in most instances, young men with little or no experience ir such business 83 this involved in strike zones, and that their youth'and inexperience and irresponsibility will in all probability lead them into mak ing some great blunder one of these days that will cost, perhaps, many lives. I "Anyhow," one labor leader said, "there is no place in North Carolina for Cossacks." SUa^TONMADE ! FOR SAFETY'S SAKE The Travelers Insurance Company has purchased a booklet on "What a j City or a Community Can Do to Save | Lives, Limbs and Dollars on its Streets and Highways." It deserves | the widest posible attention. The suggestions it offers fit the I needs of the smallest hamiet and the 1 greatest metropolis. They are simple I effective and costing to inaugurate [ fciecause they (touch everybody and would promote cooperative action for the common good. They could be the means of saving thousands of lives that would otherwise be unnecessar ily blotted out by accident. In every community a committee should be formed to take charge of 1 specifice activities for promoting street and highway safety. Members of the committee should include the mayor, chief of police, the local news paper editor, the heads of civic clubs etc. A speakers' bureau should then be formed to acquaint the public with the accident problem from the standpoint of the community, the state and the nation at large. Pos ters, radio and motion pictures could all join to bring the message vividly before the largest number of people. Police officers, coming in direct con tact with traffic law violators, can do much in instructing drivers in the fundamental principles of safety. Newspaper articles would explain the cause of accidents resulting in deaths and serious injuries. A hundred other activities will oc cur to the interested reader. Com mittees such as this, operating in ev ery American community, could re duce the automobile accident rate to a fraction of its present level within a comparatively short period. The time for action has come and the Travelers booklet points the way. Seat Sells for $9,500 A seat on the Chicago stock ex change this week sold for ?9,500 or more than $2,000 above the previous sale during the first of the week. Eastman Plants On Full Time The acetate yarn plant of the East man Kodak company, located in Kingsport, Tenn., has resumed full time operations as a result of the in creased remand for rayon. F iimiiure Business Improving A marked increase is shown in the furniture business according to the ) reports of the Rockford Manufact urers and Shippers' association of Rockford, 111. This increase has been more marked during the past thirty days. The textile plants of that sec tion also report increased activities. Mr. and Mrs. M. L. Nalley of At lanta spent last week-end at the home of Mr. W. P. Mull and family on De pot street. Mrs. Nalley is a niece of Mr. Mull. TRAMLYAMATO SHARE IN FUNDS TO EXTENT OF OWN AD) (CcrUinuoei / rem pagt ?*?) every local agency and all ci twins in terested in this essential progiam or constructive assistance unite their ef forts immediately to forecast prob able needs in their respective commu nities, then to pledge every available local resource toward meeting the challenge of the needs arising from unemployment to the end that North "JT Carolina may be forr.ifl$^i? finnr- ? cial resources to protect its people from the rigors of want and the hard ships being imposed upon them by a continuation of the economic disorder. I Through the office of Mrs. W. T. Bost, State Superintendent of Public Welfare, questionnaires have been for i warded to various agencies in every ; city and county in. the State seeking i formal and definite information as to | conditions existing, as to what local ? efforts are being made to take care of the needy and destitute and ao to exact details of the situation which prevails in each community. It is urged that every public and private ^ agency engaged in any relief work y last winter cooperate with the county superintendent of public welfare in compiling this report, because the task is too big for one person and because it is important that a com plete picture of all the effort of our community last winter be furnished the state relief office and the R. F. C. Upon the basis of the composite information thus obtained concerning individual community needs and in dividual community efforts. Governor Gardner will base his request to the R. F. C. for Federal funds to sup plement local resources for properly caring for the needs throughout the State. | BOARD MEETING i (Continued from page one) N. C., that all places of business shall close at twelve o'clock midnight ex cept Cafes and Restaurants and that they shall be closed at twelve thirty A. M. BE IT FURTHER ORDAINED: that any person, firm or corporation violating any of the provisions of this ordinance, shall be subject to a fine of not more than twenty five dollars ncr imprisoned not more than thirty ? days for each and every offense.
