Oh, just because, for we all know that women in general do not want a reason for anything in particular; hence, just because is sufficient for the majority, yet is this true? There is not only a reason, but a perfectly good, sound reason why we women above every other individual should enthusiastically encourage every uplife for the human race, for who have, under God, the training of the nations? It has well been said, "the mothers rock the cradle of the world," then why should we not avail ourselves and families for the fair Nov. 3, 4 and 5, 1915. This we have no doubt will be the best in the history of Catawba county, and we have assurance that we can attend with perfect confidence, knowing that everything undesirable will be eliminated. I cannot conceive of a woman not interested in the welfare of our coun ty. Who are who today? Why the men and women who do things, and there is no better way than to bring the best and see it compared; not self ishly but neighborly and each improve thereby. What are we going to see at the fair ? Parades, ribbons, prizes, people, stock, produce, etc, and what again? Pleasure, surely, but these are only the minor parts, for the great edu cational value cannot be estimated, and here is where we hope to see the fruits. Compare the fairs of today with TRY A RECORD WANT those of 40 years ago, during my child hood, when father and mother went and took everybody, when the band played, the horses pranced, the marshr als mounted darted hither and thither and all was bustle.

As I look over the premium list I cannot but be overwhelmed with the great variety of each exhibit, what a privilege to live in a time like the present, where each department is carefully classed and beautifully ar ranged for our culture and admira tion. Each subject can be studied or enjoyed at our leisure. If you ask me what I expect to en joy most I would unhesitatingly say the parades, especially the schools, the colleges as they march by in classes, the country schools and graded schools by classes, each carrying suita ble banners. I would like to see a blue ribbon given for the prettiest and most suitable banner. Here is the life worth living.

To the man who labors long and hard for the money with which to support himself and family, few pleasures are comparative to his arri val at home in the evenings. It is a mild pleasure ure, and thus doubling a true pleasure. While at work the average man who has found himself believes that in his work he finds his happiness, but with the day's end comes that indif ference to money and the world of affairs which invites recreation, and happy is he who has so schooled him self that he can leave his responsibil ities at his desk or bench or counter, and in the evening repair to his home with a mind tired, but eager for that rest which is the sympathy of wom an, the prattle of children. At his uaiiy worK this man may be only a iug in a vast machine, serving his purpose stolidly and without ex pectation of praise, but in his home he is a person of importance, to be look ed up to and leaned imnn u. ed about matters trivial in themselves, but looming large in trie affairs of a single family. Seated at his tablu with a sup per before him prepared according to ms tastes, the edge is soon taken from his appetite and he listens to the day's history. The oldest boy is deep in a problem concerning the construction of a steering apparatus for the pushmo bile which he has been a week making. His appeal for help is no sooner heard and passed upon than the daughter be gins to expiate on a mystery involv ing the stranp-o anatfim-ir r-f Vi - "J- xicj. uuu, Until today it never failed to go to sleep when laid down, but this after noon when put to bed for its nap it ob stinately refused to close its eyes.

And finally the youngster must tell how his mother relented and allowed him to run barefoot until he cut his toe Af ter supper he must show his wound and declare it didn't hurt.
