P. 523 BUILDER || : eS PLAN FINE SHOWS FOR COUNTY FAR The Lake County Fair will be held on the Fair Grounds at Libértyville on the 4, 5, 6 and 7 of September. From all indications this seventyâ€"sec! ond annual fair promises to excel all our fairs of the past in every particuâ€" lar. e cera n EXHIBITS WILL BE GOOD Many Entries of Stock from ~Fine Farms Near Lake The exhibits of stock . and farm produce will surpass those of past fairs both in quality and in quantity. The advance reservations for: stalls show a decided increase in interest on the part of the owners of thor, ough bred stock.: Many owners that have never exhibited at our fair fore have made reservations and ehâ€" tered their stock for exhibit. * ~A _ One encouraging feature that leads the board to believe in. the success of the fair is the interest manifest by the entries of cattle and horses from the wealthy ; farmers around Lake Forest. This is sure to make for a high quality in the exhibits in whatever classes this stock is shown. Reservations have already been made by the Meadowood farm, McCormick estate, Thompson farm, the Duffield farm, Behr‘s estate, and many others. This has been brought about through the efforts of Mr. Austin Niblack and Mr. Harry Bradley.: New entries such as this are very encouraging to those interested! in the fair. Because of this new support : from that section of the county, it has been decided that an elaborate horse show will be given on Sunday afternoon. Many ¢of the best horses in the counâ€" try are lined up for this event. The people are promised one of the finest horse qh;;n that can be given. _ A new feature with the fair} this year is the running races for ‘horses that ‘is to take the place of the old trotting races. As fate would have it, Hawth?m,‘ e completes its book just before the fair in Lake county aur% and Auroeir does not start her ca; until a week after. So the fair board was able thsecure 50 of the finest runners from Hawthorne. They are to put on five races a dayâ€"and it‘s going to be a:real speed program. .‘ This one feature alone is enough to put the fair among the leaders in its field." For there: are very few county fairs that have yet abandoned the old xtteu for the newer and faster game of running races. _ This Wi:thave a decided effect on the attendance, the. directors hope. In discussing this feature with Mt, Jack Wirts, secretary, he said, "This step is o‘:; forward. Upon it we can build our county fair to be the leader of its kind in the state. In fact, even now we are taking the lead by using this feature." h f ‘‘The attractions this year will be taken care of by the Robinson Comâ€" pany of ,Cfl\icagb. They are a very nm’gressiv* group and will furnish some real entertainment. [ . The wofik is all progressing in a very encouraging manner. .

Twenty years ago thet:l:ere sponge fishers at Tarâ€" pon (Sp sâ€"Greeks who had been there for some time, but not the large colony| .of today. . They gathered sponges in the shallow waters near shore. And then a Greek named John Cocoris had an idea that there were rich sponge beds far out in the Gulf, deeper down in the green water than any long pole cculd poke. $ He knew precisely how that would be done ith the Mediferranean sponge fisheries, go he and some experienced compatriots, having been aided finanâ€" cially by| Mr. John K. Cheyney, â€"of Tarpon Springs (who had earlier been interested in diving apparatus), made an experiment. e hk One little sloop, fixed over somehow into a machine boat, a few hardy, Greeks who could use the heavy diyâ€"; ing suit, a spring trip into the degp waters -+‘d a return with an abundâ€" ance of, valuable spongesâ€"and bur millio'n-fill'l':rd-a-yenr industry â€" was really started!
