Ho for the Smithers fair. on Sept. 2
atid 3—that’s.a week from Thursday
and Friday, This is the only agricul-
tural fair in the interior, and almost ~
the oniy one in the north. There are
few districts in Canada. that can put
np a better agricultural fair and cer-
talnly.a; better program of sports will
not be found in many places. Presi-
dent Chas. Morris and his active aide
Evitt are telling everyone about the
show that they can get intouch with.
They want everyone to turn out and
have a good time. The first day will
be devoted to arranging the agricultur-
al exhibits and the second is for ‘the
general pubiie to go in and learn and
see and enjoy themselves. Besides the
exhibita there will be horse racing and
it is said there is some new stock in
the district which will perform for the
first time ot the fair. . Then there will
be base ball between Smithers, New
Hazelton and Telkwa and the local
team says that those other fellows wilk
go. some to get away with the prize
money. There will be a midway with
all those attractions and also lots of
places to eat. But Friday night there
will be the big dance in town which is .
one of the features of the social life of
the north. If you do not see your old
friend at the fair you surely will at
the dance. ‘They all go.

‘Last week he stated that the Editor
in New Hazelton was going to make
a display of gladiolus at the Smithers
Fair. That might be a fact, provid-
ing the
thing. So far. this season it bad been
so cold and wet that very few glads
have come to bloom, and at'present it
looks us if they will hardly bloom in
time for Christmas. Even the Rditor
of the Omineca Herald cannot make
flowers bloom at will any more than
Dan Greene ean make his wheht: rip-
