ates from Sept. 9 to 16.
In a new competition to
select America’s “Farm Maid of
1956,” the first entrant is 18-
year-old Helen Hollenbach,
Strausstown.
The “Miss Reading Fair”
beauty contest, now in its 11th
year, has attracted three early
candidates. They are:
Mary Jane Mangier, Phila
delphia, 18-year-old profes
sional tap dancer, who is “Miss
Philadelphia of 1956;” Harriet
L. Krauss, Spring City, 21-year
old stenographer, Evansburg;
and Eileen S. Dotterer,l6-year
old 11th grade student at Wil
son High School, West Lawn. .
Although both contests are
open to single and married
women anywhere in the world,
none of the early entrants is
married.
Must Live On Farm
One of the provisions of the
Farm Maid competition is that
contestants must reside On a
farm and Miss Holleribach’s
entry states she is a resident
of the Blue Mountain View
Farms.
Purpose of the farm» maid
contest, a new feature at the
fair, is to find a farmerette be
tween the ages of 16 and 25
who has superior skills in
threa phases of farm work
needlework, pie baking and
hand milking.
tractor-drawn wagon awaits unloading at
the Smith & Sponholtz station near Rawl
insville. (Lancaster Farming,Staff Photo).
Official entry forms for both
contests now are available at
the Reading Fair office, 522
Court St., Reading, Pa. Only
age restriction in the Miss
Reading Fair beauty contest is
that girls must have reached
their 16th birthdays by Sep. 1,
this year.
Closing date for entries in the
Farm Maid competition is Aug.
31; in the beauty contest,
Sept. 1.
As a general rule, it is extre
mely difficult to settle the pro
blems of peoples living hundreds
of miles away, although many
of us continue to try it.
