Fair and Race Meet Plan Emerges From City Hall Meeting
The Street Pair and Carnival association met at city hall Tuesday with poor attendance and no treasury action. Enthusiasm grew for an agricultural fair and race meet next fall, a temporary organization formed, officers elected, and a committee named to estimate costs and organize support. A sales day proposal could fund auctioneering expenses to aid stock markets, benefiting Wood and Marathon counties through better marketing of farm products and premiums. A new meeting will review the committee report and form a permanent body. The piece also lists Masonic lodge and Everett Chapter officers elected for the year, highlighting officers and appointments.
