"The fair for 1907 has come and gone and is 
only a pleasant memory of the past.  For the 
crowds, it was a record breaker and under 
the guidance of Pres. R. H. Hamm, Vice-Pres. 
Granville Owens and Secretary John Robins, 
it was a success financially as well as every 
other way.
...F. M. Ware, of McKinney, was a prominent 
visitor of Mr. and Mrs. J. Thos. Cherry during 
the fair. ..."
