Last Year. Graham Crackers are wholesome. They are nourishing. They are palatable and . appetizing. Just ask your grocer for a package of NATIONAL BISCUIT COMPANY GRAHAM CRACKERS 1 ( 5 1 1 ' Plans have now been practically completed by the. management of the Western North Carolina Fair associa tion for western North Carolina day, which la to be observed here on Octo ber 10. the last day of the big fair. A review of thes eplans sems to indicate that the day will be one of the biggest, If not the biggest of the entlr eweek. as It will be wholly representative of the section. The program for the day includes an address in the afternoon by Governor Locke Craig. In the evening there will be an address, which is scheduled for 8:30, by M. V. Richards, the land and industrial agent of the Southern railway. An invitation was extended to Mr. Rich nrds some time ago to be present on this occasion, and his acceptance has Just been received. W. E. Breese, jr., president of the Greater Western North Carolina association, will be asked to Introduce him. )uring the day there will be ath letic contests, which will be partic ipated in by various teams and indi viduals of the section; the singing con tests by the country choirs of western North Carolina; and an automobile parade that it is believed will be the most magnificent ever, seen here. In the evening arrangements have been made for a mammoth -fireworks dis play, and there will be music morning, afternoon and evening. One other feature now planned for the day, which will be by no means the least, is for the country merchants of the section to be entertained by the Asheville board of trade and the Asheville Merchants' association. A luncheon is planned for them at the Langren hotel. The purpose of this ftature is to bring the business men of the section into closer touch with each other, and thus engender a closer spirit of co-operation for the up building of the section.' This is the Idea to be followed out in the events of the entire day, a day for western North Carolina's benefit. El TAKEN IN THE FAIRS Land and Industrial Office Has Catalogues of All for Distribution. Col. T. Gilbert Wood, local agent of the land and Industrial department of the Southern railway, is anxious to Wave the people of western North Carolina take a more lively interest in all the fairs of the state this year, well as the central fair of the sec tion here October 7-10, and local fairs. He considers the agricultural fair as the best medium through which to show what a section can produce, and for this reason thinks that western North Carolina should be represented at every one In the state, for he has little doubt that the products of the western section can compete most favorably with those of any other section of the state. The fairs of the state, both large and small, have their dates so arrang ed that they do not conflict, and It would be an easy matter for exhibi tors to take their products from one to the other. Col. Wood has secur ed the catalogues for all of them for distribution among those who are sufficiently Interested to take the matter up of making exhibits, and these catalogues may be secured at his office here.- The fairs of the sec tion and state for which he has cata logues, with the dates set, are as fol lows: Jackson County fair, Sylva, Septem ber 23-28; Haywood County fair, Waynesvllle, September JO-October 3; Central Carolina fair, Greensboro, October 14-17; McDowell County fair, Marlon, October 15-18; North Caro lina State fair, Raleigh, October 22-25; Charlotte fair, Charlotte, October 28- 31.
