I don't know how mutch the Legin made nor don't keer, providin' mey ve Deen the meens uv gitten a rale Co. fair started. But one or two things I do know an' that is the pore ole farmer got it in the neck as uzeiyei. ut Hoarse sum uv them got big prizes fur thair exibete from 25 cents all the way up to 50 cents, so they'll have to make out on that tobackcr is sold. Well, Uncle Abe went over to the fair one day an' sighted aroun' purty keerfully, an' 'bout the only Konklu sion I could leech wuz this: 0 darn big Show but. a purty small Fair.

Well, I cuden't hardly heer my yeers, so wapti-n' a little quite, I went over to the Agiikulture Exibits tent an' thar I found one man. Bob Bur nett, an' he said he wuz a gyardin' the ten. I .said, "No use to gyard it. Bob, jest hang out a sine sunipun like this, IF ANYBODY KUMS. YOU'LL FIND ME ON THE MIDWAY, 'CAUSE I GOT LONESUM. Well, the only thing that I saw that wuz reel revoltin' wuz wlinn John Kurley hugged that ole show gai ap liKe that.

She wuzn't goin' to .stand fer anybody alenyatin' the effeck- nuns 01 ner ole man like that, so sne ups an' slaps the thow gal' in the fac. Well, as I started to say, when John started in given that bunyhug I looked off, thinkin' that I wuz a preecher, but when I remembered that wuz a numenst or sumpun, I looked back on I besides I wanrprl in cif mv moneys wurth.

MARRIAGE LICENSES Last week's Mountaineer cnrl a hird lost its hed an' flew thru a winder here in town. Shucks, that's nnthin' I see "birds" loosin' thair heds ever nay some were at the fair last week. Then thairs another hoo loose thair heds ever time they Kit in a Kar. two h ack i n nt thair heds last week on the curv at Aoei s uarmr an' run mtn Murlf Letherwood's Kar.

Mr. Editur. that's a hart-luMWin' seen over thair -like orfin.s or sum pun. Looks like the pairents uv them kids kood send them the deer ole Mountineer. S'long fokes till next week. In all seerusness, fokes. if we're goin' to have a rale County Fair, we'll have to let our buziness men, farmers, stock razors, .school teach ers, an' house wives take charge uv it an' not the show men an' gamblers. Why "they say" thai the Olivers had to take one or two of the show nien off the grounds fer takin' the 'children.' money with ganiblin' ma sheens. Ilunaw fer Jake Lowe! Well, Mr. Editur. I've not got much to say 'bout the Cirkus, 'ccpt that it wuz jest about the Komun run nothin' much edgukashunal nur up-!iftin' about it; but I saw preech eers thare an' society fokes, ett ul. an' au innnnytum, an' they all seemed to be enjoyin' it to thair uppers. Of coarse the preechers, "jus' kum along to bring the kids" had to, you no. "The say" there wuz some ruff stuff pulled off in the' side shows, at the nigger dances, an' so foarth, an' that a few uv our town wimen got thair modisty shocked. Looks like any desent woman, or man. too, would have enough modisty or .sense or sumpun to stay out uv a nigger side show. But Waynesville and Haywood County shore does go hawg wild when a show kums to town. Now watch things be as ded as heck a month or more the farmers, preechers, doc tors, merchants an' all will haf to draw on thair reserves if they have ny. .
