Saturday Marked Close
Os Very Successful Fair
EXHIBITS AT TOOMBS COUNTY
FAIR BETTER THAN HAD BEEN
EXPECTED AND PROVES SUC
CESS FINANCIALLY.
The Toombs County Fair, Saturday
night, closen a most successful week.
Tli* attendance was fine all the way
J througn.
i The directors express themselves as
being very much pleased with the out
come of the fair this year.
Fair Prizes Being Paid
It is expected that by the end of the
week all premium checks will be mail
ed out to the winners.
The Fair As A Matter Os Record
Due to the efforts of many from all
parts of Toombs County, the fair was
an unsual success. The exhibits were
goon', the display of all edhibits was
v,ery attractive. All the way through
it has been a most suhcessful, en
couraging fair. Every exhibit was
given absolutely impartial treatment
and all exhibitors left 1 with a deter
uination to do better next year.
The boys did well in the corn, pig
and barrow clubs this year. In some
cases, as often happens, the parents
would not permit them to bring in
exhibits. These who were so unfort
unate are to be sympathized with as
they were prevented from finishing
their years work and disheartened in
their efforts But the spirit of friendly
rivalry that existed among the boys,
as was shown especially during the
judging contest, has spurred them on
to plan greater efforts next year.

the following list of prize winners:
