Sunday evening at the end of
their mandatory practice in preparation for the Little Miss Logan
County competition next week, 15 little darlings learned a variety
of things they would need to know in order to present themselves
well in front of the judges.
At the end of their practice, Julie Cooper who is the co-director of
the Little Miss competition and a preschool teacher by profession,
took the little girls into a quiet spot and explained to them that at the end of the competition they would all be given gifts, but
only one would be crowned Little Miss.
She emphasized to them that as competitors, they are all winners, and
we at Lincoln Daily News couldn't agree more. Save these pictures,
folks, because you are looking as the next generation of Logan
County Fair queens.

Standing perfectly still in a straight line
looks easy, but when you're 4, 5, 6 and 7 years old, in front of
hundreds of people, it is harder than one might think.
