every one feel as old fashioned as their

Two sets around the Maypoles on either

so many who were unable to gain admis-

they looked at the grand stand yesterday.
For once in its history it was full. Not
only crowded. but packed and damned,
with two youngsters sitting On each chair,
and one standing on the rungs of each
