she Pope The me RAVALLI REPUBLICAN, HAMILTON, MONTANA, FEBRUARY 12, 1942. PAGE FIVE BOARD ABANDONS IMPROVEMENT PLANS Preparations for the fall exposition are definitely under way, but plans for building and ground improvements previously discussed are out of the question for this year because of world conditions, Dayton Lockridge, Stevensville, informed 21 Ravalli County Fair department superintendents, fair members and county commissioners at a dinner meeting in the Brooks hotel, Corvallis, Thursday evening. Mr. Lockridge also announced that Mrs. S.

A. Hieronymus, who had previously submitted her resignation as secretary, had been induced to continue with her work for the coming year and introduced Paul Kurtz, Hamilton dairyman, as a new member of the fair board. Reports on Fair Meeting. A detailed report of annual meeting of the Rocky Mountain Association of Fairs, held recently in Missoula, was given by and Mrs. 4 mus.

September dates set for the county fair. These earlier dates were explained by the fact that, located as we are geographically, we are decidedly three off the main route for any of the circuits operating within the state and therefore must make our dates to coincide with the other fairs cooperating in the western circuit. Other fairs operating under the western circuit are Kalispell, August 26-28; Chinook, September 5, 6 and 7, and Fort Benton, September 11, 12 and 13. Mrs. Hieronymus then reviewed briefly the address given by Dr.

E. Melby, state university president, whose topic was "Fairs are Educational Institutions." Dr. Melby stressed the point that fairs are an educational influence not only during the few days actually in operation, but for all the time that those in charge are working together in planning the exhibition and all the time that exhibitors are planning their displays. This learning through doing is learning in the best possible way. Fairs are the most practical way of teaching.

He stated! that now more than ever it is necessary that we all get our sights up and keep them up and fairs are a most essential factor in the lifting of the general level of thinking, feeling and living. Fairs Are Beneficial. Dr. Melby stressed the benefits derived by the exhibitors from pride in workmanship, in preparing something worthwhile to exhibit, she said. He stated that in his experience he has found that fairs have done much to encourage better methods' and technique on the farms and partieularly stressed that in these times of world strife we must keep on as nearly normal a basis as possible and that the continuance of our fairs will mean much in stimulating the morale of the communities served.

Jack Maynard, Billings, former of animal husbandry at professor, Agricultural College, featured speaker at the association banquet, referred to fairs 88 windows" of a community. In part, Mira. Hieronymus said, Mr. Maynard stated: -I believe that one of the biggest jobs each fair has today is to encourage the constructive livestock breeders in its own community to take advantage of this display witdew to show the stockmen of their area what they have accomplished and can do for them. in these critical times and in the times to come when we will be called upon to literally feed the world, the fairs will be making their most valuable contribution to the livestock industry." Mrs.

Hieronymus declared that representatives in attendance at the meeting expressed, through resolu: tion. their cognizance of the responsibilities laid upon OUR 0088: try because of war, pledged support of the government, weal on record en the premise that food is impor: last to victory oter our common fore and that every effort would be made to encourace the production of more and better crops and that the morale our is all of to a united democracy, and their belief that county fairs contribute the upholding of the morale of the community Suggest de Ante speaking for the commissioners, plodend their support in ON the fair this stating that considering the cal: already in the and the walk the fair has attained in would he holding General disunion of plane for departments was entered into by the and de for the COME by all was to these four mote of the the seed one to be curly April wage A Sires Roll Jame Rests 800 Marines Establish Limited Service Similare hee de 50 she to amore Ito it 00 ge Dance Is Assembly Club Plan Officers were elected and plans for a benefit Assembly club St. Patrick's day dance on March 14. discussed at the annual meeting were, the Hikers' club Monday night.
