The Rural School Fax which is held in nearly every section of the country l ,will be taking place next month anted is always an .outstanding event in the Lives of the children. ' Those who got seeds or eggs from th.e 4epatiti;.nscent last spring and ha" been taking care of their own gardens or chickens throughout the summer months are confidently looking .forward to carry- ing off many prizes when Fair Day comes. And good luck to them all for they deserve the reward for their labor, $ut rvght here; is a po int worth watching -what about the childrenwho haver neglected their plots and poultry and have nothing to 'exhib.it ? The parents of many of these youngsters will do them inestimable harm, by let- tiug them show vegetable from,the home garden, or chickens frothe borne aoost :n place of what they should have raised themselves. The fathers and big brothers will snake bird houses and other manual training articles and the mothers and big sis- ters will dress cops and bake cakes which will be shown, as the sole work of the child, Thus the child gets his first lesson, in dishonesty, ma all for the sake of a few dollars prize money. The 'example is far re aching, too, as the youngster who has tried honestly to do his besttthis year will next year try to get some older person, to help him leecauge "the, other kede r -t r,,,.Teo Scha;,t ,Fair is a great power far good throughout the county and the man - Ws and directors are not to blame foethss phase of it.
