UST OF PREMIUMS AWARD
ED WINNERS AT THE FAIR _
Saturday October 24th brought
to a close the most successful
Warren-Glascock County Fair
ever held in the history of the
two counties. Exhibits despite
the extreme dry weather were
exceptionally good,interest was at
its highest and competition rival
ed that of past years.
The premium awards were
made last Thursday and from all
reports it seems that practically
every one had made the same de
cision that the judges finally
made. The community booths
commanded the comment of sev
eral newspaper men and compar
ed favorably with the county ex
hibits on display at the South
eastern Sair. We have had a
great fair enjoyed and sponsored
by a host of supporters, and the
people of the two counties take
their hats off to the Reese-Hyman
Post of the American Legion, and
especially the loyal Secretary
Treasurer for the wonderful
showing made in this undertaking
The results show that some one
has really been at work not only
for the past week but for the past
year, and much credit should go
to the Management and to the citi
zens of the two counties coopera
ting.
The awards made in the Com
munity Exhihits were as follows:
First place, Brier Creek.
Second place, Camak.
Third place, Warrenton.

DISINFECTION OF ROOMS
AFTER TUBERCULOSIS
The State Board of Health is often
appealed to by our citizens to know
the proper way to disinfect a room
or house after it has been used by
one having an infectious disease. The
disease most often inquined of is tu
berculosis.
It is the opinion of the*State Board
of Health, and generally recognized by
the more progressive health authori
ties, that house fumigation as hereto
fore practiced, is of almost no value
