A subordinate Grange Is the moit practical and the most natural means of promoting all the Interests of a rural community ever conceived In the history of tho world, lor the following reasons : ' 1.

It contributes to the high mrtral standard by affording convenient and agreeable society for old and young In which the highest standard of morality Is maintained, thereby preventing as sociation of Its members In society of the opposite nature. 3. It contributes to the happiness of the home by the mental recreation af forded all members of the family in the various Grange- gatherings attended, thereby broadening their mental vision and increasing tholr happiness, which is sure to bo reflected in their home life. 4. It contributes to the material prosperity by Its discussion of all mat ters of Importance tending to local de velopemcnt, and often I Instrumental In securing the entobl lnh nicnt of In dustries that give added population as well as taxable property, thereby Indi rectly aiding every taxpayer In town. 5.

The country fair Is In full blast now over, the State, and the attendance when the' weather does not Interfere Is reported good. The Interest shown by the people of the country communities Is not abating. But there Is one feature of the country fair which cannot be regarded with any satisfaction, and that Is the growing toleration of gambling devices. Once the gambler at the country fair was looked upon with hor ror. Of late he has come to be one of the chief features. In some fairs It Is said that tho gambler pays such high prices for the privilege of fleecing the people that the entire expenses of the fair are mot In this manner If every thing else should prove a failure. The managors oxcubs the presence of the gambler by saying the people want to play the gambling games, and that the gambler pays the expenses of the fair. Undoubtedly there In truth In the argument. It the people did not patronize the gambler at the fair he would not be there. The patronage is the misfortune At some fairs It has become notorious. Whorever the gambler is tolerated the reputation of the fair soon spreads. Some of the fairs will not permit gamblers on the grounds. From all signs. such fairs do not suffer any from want of attractions or attendance. It Is safo to reason that other fairs could bo made attractive to tho peoplo by providing something else than dishonest games. It not, then the fair that depends on the gambler should shut up Bhop. If the rumors are true that women are playing the gambling games openly at some of the country fairs the managers of such fairs have a plain duty, and that is to abolish tho gambler and If the management will not do it the borough officials should tuke a hand. Tho legitimate country fair Is too valuable an Institu tion to suffer from disreputable prac tices. Pittsburg Times. Low Excursion to Pittsburg Exposition.
