10 BEJIRUEH
Directors Met Yesterday-
Afternoon in Office of Pres
ident Jas. TJ. Jackson.
The date> for Augusta’s next annual
fall fair was changed from the first
week in November to the next to the
lMt week in October, at a meeting of
til* directors of the Georgia-Carolina
Fair Association held yesterday af
ternoon at 6 o'clock in the offices of
President James U. Jackson. The
fair this year will take place October
19-23, inclusive. This does not in
clude Saturday, as heretofore has been
the custom.
The state fair in Macon was some
time ago decided to be held this year
the first week in November. In order
not to have the two conflict, the local
fair association agreed to change its
dates.
It was voted yesterday by the di
rectors to ask the full co-operation ol
the Augusta newspapers, the mer
chants and the general public to .mako
the fair this year the greatest suc
cess in the history of the association,
There will be five days of the fair
this year instead of six because usual
ly the shows are tearing down on the
last day of the week preparatory to
moving away. The five days this year
will all be big days. Each will be a
feature day and it is confidently be
lieved that the attendance will be
much larger for the five days than
for the six last year.
A big attraction the latter part of
fair week will be the annual gridiron
clash between the University of Geor
gia and Clemson College. It’s a two
state fair and a two-state game. Cali
fornia Frank will have his wild west
show back again. He is at present
still in winter quarters in Augusta.

SERVICES TODAY
Rev. Frank Hall Wright Spoke
at 10:30 on “Conditions of
Answer to Prayer.”
A large congregation this morning
at 10:30 heard Rev. Frank Wright
on the subject "Conditions of Answers
t oPrayers.” All the day services are
being held at the St. John Methodist
Church on account of the noise which
must be made at the C. & W. C. depot
by the shifting of freight. Both places
adapt themselves well to the needs in
this union revival effort. St. John’s
is a quiet and pleasant auditorium and
will perhaps hold the day congrega
tions. The improvised auditorium at
the C. & W. C. depot Is especially
suited to the purpose, for though in
its erection there was no thought of
accoustic properties yet there Is no
auditorium in town in which it is
easier to hear from one end to the
other.
East night almost a thousand peo
ple gathered to hear the evangelist
who preached on “Witnesses Unto
Christ.’’ With telling words he de
clared how all may witness to Christ
by standing firmly for the truth of
the Bible which form beginning to
end tells about the Lord. He said,
further, that those who have Christ
in their lives witness for him In ex
ample. and can with effect tell about
him to their fellowmen. He closed
with an admonition to the Christian
people to “talk up Christ if you be
lieve in Him and if you feel that He
is good for you and will be good for
others.”
Tonight at 8:15 the singing will be
gin as the evangelist requested that
more time should be spent in singing
the gospel songs. The members of
the chorus are requested to come
early.

WQfSST FOE IS
HXICipTER
If War Declared Bad Water
Supply Would Menace the
American Troops.
New York. —Bad water will he the
army’s worst foe in Mexico if war is
declared, according to Colonel M. L.
Maus, chief surgeon of the first army
division, which has headquarters at
Governors Island. The water supply
and sanitation system of Mexico, he
explained, were so far behind modern
methods that if any army should be
sent into Mexico City an entirely
new system would have to be pro
vided. He estimated that millions of
dollars would be expended by the
United States for sanitation and that
from a health standpoint American
occupation of Mexico would be a good
thing.for that country.
A MINOR CHARACTER.
"Yes, my grandfather figured in one
of Thackeray’s novels."
“You don’t say. How is that?”
“You remember that passage where it
says ‘Waiter, arrack punch?’ ”
"I believe I do.’’
“Well, my grandfather was the wait
er.”
