EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE MEETING. 

 OCT. 12, 13, 14, 1914. 



The committee met with members Cameron, Olson, Corey, Cur- 

 tin, Summers and Curiiss present on October 12th. 



The purpose of the meeting was to confer with the program 

 and executive committee of the American Association of Fairs 

 and Expositions which was in session at the Savery Hotel relative 

 to arrangements for the annual meeting in Chicago on December 

 3d and 4th. 



The executive committee met on October 13tli and 14th. The 

 committee granted the Western Breeders' Sales Company the use 

 of the horse barns and stock pavilion for the horse sale to be con- 

 ducted by said company on October 29th, 30th and 31st, for the 

 sum of $50 plus the expense the department would be to in 

 taking up street crossings, cleaning barns, hauling forage, etc. 



The secretary brought to the attention of the committee the 

 fact that when all bills for material, expense of fair, etc., were 

 paid there w^ould be a deficit in the treasury of between $11,000 

 and $20,000. The committee deemed it advisable that there be a 

 full meeting of the board to take care of this matter. President 

 Cameron therefore instructed the secretary to call a full meeting 

 of the board for Tuesday morning, at ten o'clock, October 27th.
