TWENTIETH ANNUAL YEAR BOOK— PART III 239 



money just like everybody else, and I hope they make a lot of it. A 

 lot of fairs aren't running on a Sunday school basis but are willing 

 to run on the verge of a gambling basis. It takes only one man to 

 make you all kinds of trouble, but if you have a man that has a 

 permit and make him live up to it, then nobody can run him off the 

 grounds. 



The Chairman : Unless there is further discussion we will go to 

 the next topic. 



Mr. Leytze : I said before that in Sioux City we didn't allow 

 any games of chance on the grounds. I agree thoroughly with Mr. 

 Cameron. I believe that the fact that there is or is not gambling 

 on the ground comes back to the individual secretary. I think you 

 are putting a lot of trouble in your own way if you do this. 



George E. Bliss, Corning : I believe that we would lose one-third 

 of our concessions if we adhered to this rule, because there are so 

 many that wouldn't go out as concessioners ; they wouldn't bother to 

 take out a license. It is easy enough to get rid of them, to put them 

 out if they don't live up to the rules. We never had any trouble in 

 Adams county. If they operate any games or anything that is out 

 of order, we just put them right out. 



Mr. Cameron : There is just one more thought that I want to 

 leave you. As Mr. Lauer said, if a man had a card from Havner 

 he couldn't be put off the ground, and if a man came from another 

 state and he didn't have a card and he had a legitimate game you 

 couldn't take him on. 



Motion by Mr. Simmermaker, seconded, and unanimously adopted, 

 that this matter be laid on the table. 



The Chairman : Last year some of the fairs started a pig club 

 contest, and among those was the Cedar Valley fair at Cedar Falls. 

 I know you are all interested in this, and I would like to have Mr. 

 Bailey give us briefly his success in connection with the pig club. 

 If Mr. Bailey will do that, we will appreciate it very much. Mr. 

 Bailey. 



J. S. Bailey, Cedar Falls: This takes me by surprise, and I 

 don't know just where to begin. I can only commence and outline 

 what we did in the matter. The way this thing came up in the 

 first place was with our county superintendent. One night on the 

 street car he came to me and said, "Bailey, don't you think we 

 could organize a pig club ?" He then outlined about what he wanted 

 to do. In a few words it is this : We borrowed the money — the fair
