clusion. Whatever we decided to do. we
would have to separate some Of our ex-
h:bits. We would have to put our live stock
and cur dairy exhibits in the live stock
and the dairy buildings
Several additions will be made to the st.
Louis Worlds Fair building at the Pan
American Exposition. eas the result Of the
visit of the directors. The sign over the
door will be changed from Louisiana Pur-
chase Exposition. 1909" to -"St Louis
Worlds Fair. 1sos.' as the result Of the
remark by visitor: Here is the Louisiana
building" which several Of the directors
overheard.
The offer of ST. Louis dealer to place
piano in the building free of charge will
be accepted At the next meeting of the
Board of Directors Director schrOers will
broSch the question Of nightly band con-
