exclude from their next exhibitions ev.
erything i'll the nature of cateh-penny

boards have already taken commenda-
BILE stand in this matter, and their ex-
ample should be initiated by others all

fairs are to be made the useful and dig.
nilied enterprises they should be, the
gambling device must be one of the first
evils to go" The board of managers of

ty will, it is hoped. free our fair in the
future entirely from the pestiferous
suckers who annually make it the occa.
sion for lining their trowsers pockets
through some gambling scheme, with
cash contributed by the unwary and un-
suspecting. Away with every form of
such device.
