TWO FAIRS ***** MISUNDERSTANDING
* * NO COOPERATION * *
o
At this time there seems to be a great confu
sion, a stir and a misunderstanding in regard to
who should have a Fair, who has the right to
have a Fair, and who should give way to the
other.
From the very outset this paper will take nei
ther side of the argument but we will print the
facts as they are.
The facts follow:
The first Fair announcement for 1935 appear
ed in the February 14th issue of the Nash Coun
ty News and states; “Plans for a Community
Fair are already started. It will be about the us
ual time and, will be sponsored by the Methodist
and Baptist Churches.”
The next announcement came on March 7th
by the ‘Spring Hope Community Agricultural
Fair Association’, “We will stage our annual
Fair for one week, beginning September 16,
1935, with the B & B Shows’ playing the Fair.”
The next announcement appeared on March
14th when The Community Fair (Churches)
named their official.; for the 1935 Fair and stat
ed, —“A definite date will be set later.”

The Town Board passed a resolution back in
March rhat no Carnival, other than the one
sponsored by the Churches play in Spring Hope
this year.
The Agricultural Fair Association has a char
ter issued by the State while the Community
Fair Association does not.
Neither Fair Association has a permit from
the Department of Agriculture.
The Church Fair has had published and distribu
ted their premium list while the Community
Fair has done nothing along this line.
All in all it goes to show that “a house divided
against itself cannot stand. ’ In order for any
thing to be the greatest success, there has to be
full cooperation. The Sprina Hope People
should get together and work as a unit, rather
than pull in different directions as they now are.
Why not have a meeting of these different
Fair Associations, and at this meeting, work out
a plan which would be suitable to all concerned?
One big fair would be better than two small
ones. Even one small one would be better than
two smaller ones.
o
GREAT AMERICANS
o
Well, all I know is what I read in the papers—
a line made famous by that beloved and well
known character, Will Rogers. But no more will,
we see those words that we all have come to
know so well.
When Will and his great friend, Wiley Post
were killed, the whole world suffered a great
loss. Those two men tfere typical of what every
man should strive for. They were continually
striving to do something for the betterment and
progress of this world of ours. Wiley Post work
ing to increase man’s speed and control over
the elements, and Will trying to make others
happy.
We all know that no one can ever take the
place of either of them, but let us all try to imi
tate the example set by these two great Ameri
cans.
