FAIR NOTES
The Queen Contest is over and
it is now known who will be the
queen to award the winners in
the sports contests. Nome can be
proud that she had such a bevy of
beauties to choose from. Congrat
ulations to the Queen upon her;
success, and congratulations to the
other contestants for allowing'
their names to be used and their !
aid in the contest.
Exhibits have already been re
ceived from out of town, indicat
ing interest in the Fair is taking
form.
All the other affairs now being
over, we will commence immedi->
ately to plot the floor and assign
the booths for the several exhib- :
its. The principals taking part in
the various plays are all hard at
work, and we can promise you an
entertaining evening each night of
the Fair. We hope that the wea
ther man used his influence to get
the Bad Weather over this past
week and that we will have FAIR
weather for the next two weeks.
Tickets on the car can be pur
chased at practically every sto’.e
; and place of business in town.
Someone is going to have a grand
car to ride in this summer,
i Several dog teams have made
the drive to the Cape and back, so
i we can expect a good race.
I Many ski trips were planned
for Sunday, but were abandoned
on account of weather conditions.
Interest is being shown and that is
j what we want.
