NO. 5i 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. The schools were divided into three groups and were placed in the awards as follows: Group one, Camak, Warrenton, Norwood. Group two, Bastonville, Wares, Jewell. Group three.

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 Ik THE fAWt WHO BKAGS ABOUT His FAMILY TREE USUALVf \S ONE OF WE INSieHtFlCAHT VW4IOS c L> JS J| HAW I Your Cos |Lieber^> I Largest | I Monroe t!
