MANSFIELD. PENNSYLVANIA, WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 12, 1928
NUMBER 45
MANSFIELD HIGH SCHtWL OPENED MONDAY, SEPT. THIRD
We do not wish to appear egotistical but in our opinion Mansfield has onc of the very best high schools of any town in these United States, taking into consideration the size of thu town. With our new auditorium built last year our buildings are in good «hape, and fairly convenient and handy. The new auditorium is a very handsome .structure, finely equipped with electric light, sUge, curtains, etc., and cost about $25,000.
While all regret that Professor W. R. Longstreet saw fit to resign from the principalship we believe that we have in the person of Professor Wil¬ lard Ackley, a splendid supervising principal, who will work night and day for the success of the school, and to keep it up to the high standard in which Professor Longstreet left it. This year has started up in good shape with about 150 students. A number of boys will not commence school until after the fair.

A GENUINE ANTIQUE;
POSTER ADVERTISING FIRST TIOGA COUNTY FAIR
With Hoover Force*
Through the courtesy of Hon. Geo. W. Williams and Mr. Frank A. Deans, of the Bingham estate. Secretary Mar¬ vin, of the Smjrthe Park Association, has in his possession and will exhibit at the Fair next week, a full sheet poster advertising the "First Annual Fair of the Tioga County Agricultur¬ al Society, in Tioga Village, on Wed¬ nesday and Thursday, October 4th and 5th, 1854." To say that this piece of paper is a real antique, is jiutting it mild. It is not only an antique, but a real curiosity, and worth looking at. It will be on exhibition in the ladies' building, and it will pay any one to look it over.
Where now-days all fairs have a book with a premium list printed, in those days the premium list was printed on the poster. Premiums were given for the three best cultivated farms in the county, ?.S, SC, and $4, respectively. The grain and farm crops were examined in the fields of the owners. Wheat, the best five acres; oats, the best three acre field; Com, the best three acre field; etc. There was also a plowing match prize, a prize for the best thousand feet of lumber, and the best sample of blacksmith work. Admission to the grounds was 12 V6 cents each, and the premiums given out amounted to four hundred dollars.
The following were tha offic;;!--! of the association: President, William B. Clymer, Wellsboro; Vice Presi¬ dents, Daniel L. Sherwood, Richmond; B. C. Wickham, Tioga; George Mc- Leoid, Wellsboro; J. L. Kingsbury, Charleston; Ansel Purple, Westfield; Recording Secretary, F. E. Snii'ih, Ti¬ oga; Corresponding Secretary, James R. Wilson, Richmond; Treasurer, Jiio. F. Donald.son, Wellsboro; Marshal oi the Day, John W. Guemseey, Tioga; Assistant, Stephen F. Wilson, Wells¬ boro.
Ladies' Committee of Arrange¬ ments, Mrs. T. L. Baldwin, Mrs. Vine De Puy, Mrs. A. C. Bush, Mrs. J. S. Bush, Mrs. C. N. Slocumb, Mrs. O. B. Lowell, Miss M. Wickham, Mrs. E. C. Bush, Julia Knapp. Rachel Prutsman, Ellen Tuttle, Justin.ir Havens, Mrs. P. S. Tuttle, Mrs. C. H. Tuttle, Mrs. Abel Humphrey.
Gentlemen's Committee of Ar¬ rangements, J. W. Guernsey, Rich¬ ard Mitchell, T. L. Baldwin, Chas O. Etz, C. F. Miller, J. J. Inscho, H. W. Calkins, Abel Humphrey.

McCALL'S AND ADVERTISER
ono year for $2.70. We are making this special offer during the Fair. Our tent will be on the grounds as usual. Don't fail to take advantage of thia offer. 45t2      M.A.NSFIELD ADVERTISER.
This is the last copy of the Adver- j tiser that will reach you before the ! big Fair will be booming, and there are a few more points we wish to call your attention to. We know every one in this neck of the woods is inter¬ ested in this Fair, and everybody cer- Uinly enjoys it. But there are peo¬ ple in various parts of this and near¬ by counties who are not so well ac¬ quainted with this annual Tioga coun¬ ty outing and we wish to point out to them just a few of the main features. Features which have given the Mans¬ field Fair the state-wide reputation of being the best agricultural, mechani¬ cal and industrial exhibition to be found anywhere. There are, we will admit, larger fairs than the Mansfield exhibition, but we have yet to hear anyone say that they have ever seen a more perfect fair-ground, a more in¬ teresting midway, better free attrac¬ tions, better ball games, better dis¬ plays of everything or more courteous officials.
As we have before stated, nothing has been left undone, no pains spared, nothing upon which money could be expended to enhance the pleasure of the patrons- has been neglected. And another point on which we wish to call attention is the fact that the management of this fair has always kept faith ¦with the people. They have always done in every way just as they agreed —and more. All who at¬ tend the Mansfield Fair always get their money's worth, and much more, for there are many side attractions.
The music this year will be in charge of Prof. E. B. Strait, one of the most expert band musicians in the country. He is the director of a band composed of the best players in the county, and splendid music can be counted on for the whole four days.
The Granges of the county are to be a great attraction this year at the fair. The Grange building, near the dining hall, will be occupied by the different Grange organizations about the county, and their display of every¬ thing, from a head of lettuce to a hun¬ dred dollar silk quilt, will certainly be worth seeing. The exhibits of the the Granges are always interesting.
The baseball games this year will l)e all that can be desired. The teams that are entered are closely matched and between them there is the hot¬ test rivalry, and you are sure to see some exciting games.
We are pleased to state that the farm exhibits vegetable and animal, are up to- if not ahead of last year. A'l departments throughout the grrounds promise to be full. The free attractions according to the ipinion of the President of the Association, will be considerably better than hereto¬ fore. More pains have been taken by the management this year than usual in getting a higher clas.s of perfbrm- ers, and more money has been ex¬ pended on account of it being the GOth anniversary. The Mansfield Fair was first held in September, 1879, and for fifty years the management hns tried to make it bigger and better every year. This is the golden anniver.«ary, and it is believed that it will be a rec¬ ord breaking year. Those who attend¬ ed the fair fifty years a.go wi'l be given a free ticket if they will write the Secretary, F. H. Mai-vin, or call in person at his office.
Please remember that the Mansfield Fair, during the past forty-nine years, has never been conducted for profit. The stockholders during all these years have never received a cent of in¬ terest on their investment. And on some years they have even paid their own and their families admission' to the grounds. They have worked ear¬ ly and late to make the fair what it is today. They have changed a veritable swamp of a few acres into one of the prettiest parks in existence. The sat¬ isfaction of doing something for oth¬ ers, of making a p'ace where men, women and children throughout the county can congregate and enjoy themselves is the only reward these unselfish stockholders have ever re¬ ceived. But the thought that you have done something to make some one else happy is the greatest reward one can receive, after all. From all over the county people some to Smythe Park for their family reunions, their picnics and outings of all kinds. The park is always free to everyone, and every organization.
Don't forget the Saturday evening exhibition. Then is the time you will enjoy yourself. The Park will be brilliantly lighted by electricity. The splendid music, the free attractions, the fireworks, and many other things too numerous to mention. It wi'l be a big night.    Don't miss sit.
This 1928 Mansfield Fair, in short, is going to be the biggest and best ex¬ hibition ever held. It is, in fact, go¬ ing to be the regular Old Home Week I for Tioga county people. Everybody I is coming and everybody is going to

The Tioga County Council of Re¬ publican Women held their annual meeting on September 11—Hoover Day—in Wellsboro, having luncheon at the Penn-Wells following the morn¬ ing business meeting and a program at the court house in the afternoon. There were ninety-six women register ed for lunch. The morning .session was opened by the President, Mrs. P. A. Coles, of Mansfield. Routine busi¬ ness was very promptly disposed of and reports of the several councils were read—delegates were present fron» Mansfield, Westfield, Covington, Blossburg, Knoxville, Elkland, Maines¬ burg and Wellsboro. All councils re¬ ported active work done along the lines of education and interesting the women to register and vote. Mrs. M. N.

The nominating com¬ mittee presented the following slate which was accepted and the members unanimously elected for the ensuing year:

At the aftemoon session at the court house, Mrs. Trowbridge, of Westfield, vice president of the Re¬ publican county committee, urged the women to support their local units. Representative George W. Williams spoke on the bond issues which will be voted upon and tho men in the State of Pennsylvania, who would come up for election. County chair¬ man Mason Owlett as the next speak¬ er. He complimented the council in saying that they were a great force back of the Republican County Com¬ mittee. He said the results of the campaign would determine the future pathway of this nation in the world.
He said a return to Democratic rule would be a step backward for this na¬ tion. He contrasted the two candi¬ dates. He advocated the election of Congressman Kiess.
Senator Frank Baldwin spoke next. He congratulated the women of Tioga county. He said if the women of the other counties turned out the way they had, it would have a great effect election day. He spoke of the new voters. Boys and girls casting their first vote, and said they and the wom¬ en would be a great factor in the election. He urged all to get out and get others to the polls.. He spoke of the fifty-two years out of the 68 since the Republican party was first in pow¬ er. Hoover, he said, had capacity over every other man for the job of president.    He scored Tammany Hall.
Mrs. Benjamin Atlee, trustee of Millerstown Teachers College, mem¬ ber of the state committee, chairman Fourth Eastern District, was the next speaker. Good housekeeping, she said, depended on good wages, and the mere threat of a Democratic vic¬ tory had affected employment. She urged women to go to the polls.

Victor Buley, mentioned below, whose wife before her marriage was Miss Winifred Benedict, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Harry Benedict, of this place, is well known here, and the fol¬ lowing item from a correspondent will be of interest to Mansfield  people:
"Victor Buley, who was runner-up for the Shepard Hills Country Club championship in a match which he played with the Rev. J. A. Nolan on Labor Day, losing by one up, was the winner of the Samuels cup, played for the same day by the club mem¬ bers. The two championship finalists U8e(| their morning scores for the Samuels cup, and when the handicaps and net scores were figured out by Larry Dykeman, professional of the club, yesterday, it was found that Mr. Buley had beaten bogie, six up. Thus the two finalists each won a cup, one the championship cup, and the other the Samuels cup."

Govt.-nor AJa;-.i McMullen, of Ne braslia, fa.-tn leader, hra joined the Hoover-Curtis rsnks. "Mr. Hoover Is the nominee of the paity that believes In the protective tariff. Governor Smith Is the nominee of the party that always opposes It. Mr. Hoover views the agricultural question as the main question," he s-.-d.
Not much    has    been    said    lately about   those   high   school  chairs,   but that does not mean that the commit- j tee has been idle.    The alumni com¬ mittee has sent out letters to all of ' its members  giving them  an oppor- I tunity to put themselves on record as being  proud  of the  old  school  and anxious to make it better.   Three peo- ' pie   have  sent  their checks  and   no doubt  the  other six  hundred  Avill  do ', so as soon as they recover from their | vaction and really get down to busi- ' ness.    The committee will appreciate ' it if all who are interested will order I their  chairs   soon   so  that  they  can I check up and decide what to do next, I for  you  will   remember  that  we  old grads,    parents    and    teachers    have promised to pay the bill for six hun¬ dred chairs in November.    One hun¬ dred markers have been secured and will be placed at once.    The rest are on order.

being treasonable as one could be in times of peace. She said it was a solemn pledge of the women of Penn¬ sylvania to continue what Calvin Coo¬ lidge stai-ted. Our beacon light should not be the white lights of Broadway, a safer beacon was the little oil lamp which shed the glow by which Calvin Coolidge was sworn in.
Mrs. Atlee traced the career    and accomplishments  oft   he    two  candi¬ dates.  Hoover  and   Curtis.    We  can- I not continue Calvin Coolidge as presi¬ dent, but we can elect a man who will carry on his  principles.    The women of Pennsylvania will rally to the call | of Herbert Hoover.      November will i show that women were rightly given j the right to vote.   Added to a gift for ' speech    making Mrs. Atlee    adds    a j charming appearance   and   delightful ' personality.     Her   talk   made    every woman  in   the   crowded   court room eager to go out and work for Hoover, and to rally all her sister women to the same call.
Congressman Edgar Kiess, of Wil¬ liamsport, was the last speaker. Ho stressed the importance to women of the prohibition issue, it was their ef¬ forts to keep father, husband and son from liquor that brought about the prohibition movement. He said Pennsylvania could be proud of her native son, Andrew Mellon, for the tax reductions he had accomplished under a Republicnn administration. He spoke of the well being of the country, and asked should on Novem¬ ber 6, "the qualified voters repeal the administration that brought about well-being. Hon. Eilgar Kiess declar¬ ed himself for prohibition legislation. Mr. Kiess spoke of a personal ac¬ quaintanceship with Mr. Hoover for the past eight years, ami with Sena¬ tor Curtis for the past 16 years.
Mr. Kiess said Mr. Hoover was a statesman, not a politician. He is all- American in the broadest sense of the word, he has carried the American flag to all comers of the world. Mr. Kiess said he thought, if elected. Governor Smith would do as Tam¬ many dictated, for he owed so much to that organization. The women are naturally for Hoover. Mr. Kiess said that in a personal talk with Hoover, the candidate was counting on the support of the women.
Mr. Kiess gave some interesting statistics as to voters in this district. Mr. Van Brown has set a plurality of 10,000      for    Hoover    in    Lycoming

AN OLD LANDMARK
TO BE TAKEN DOWN
Work has been begun on a modem bridge to replace the old covered bridge known as the Berry Bridge, on the Susquehanna Trail, just south of Tioga Borough. A detour has been arranged. It is understood that part of the river under the old wooden structure will be filled and the river at that point straightened. This old covered bridge is one of the very few of the kind now in existence.       ,   4)
