Kern County World's Fair committee reports exhibit progress
The Kern County World's Fair association executive committee met to review amended plans for the Kern county exhibit at Chicago and forwarded a reduced scale photographic copy to the California World's Fair commission with a formal building-space application.

Contributions expanded the collection with Tehachapi fruit, vegetables, potatoes, nuts, and apples from Kernville orchards. A literature committee vacancy was filled as I A Young left the state, and a report on proposed souvenirs and pamphlets was requested. Financials show September disbursements and August income leaving a balance near debt-free.
