Kounty King Korn Karnival which is what we are going to write about, means a lot of peo ple have to do a lot of work if the event is to be successful . . . For several Fridays meetings of committee chairman and n;ensbist have been held to discuss prob lms and report on progress . . . Naturally, since people are people and not machines, not all of the workers attend each meeting, but at nearly every meeting you find a certain group which is the sparkplug of thje affair . . . That ! doesn't mean all the others aren't doing anything because many of them are and they are doing a good job, but they aren't able to attend the meetings ... Of course, there are some who should be there and never are just be cause it's too much bother . . . Rut for the most part the work ers are working . . . The behind-the-scenes story of a project such as the Karnival is a big one and one that is not known to the general public . . . There is an immense amount of work to be done merely to clear the way for setting up tire program . . . And to those who are doing the work a special tribute is in order . . . To the officers, committee chair man and workers of the King Korn Karnival we award orchids this week.
