has been transformed into colonial tea
garden, with a replica of the mansion at
Mount Vernon. In the gallery with the
Haley band Is the Ice cream parlor, con-
Quoted by the ladies of Pentalpha Lodge.

and second line of booths is the lunch room.
Here everything that can be eaten cold is
served. Across the aisle is pretty booth,
a which ladies In colonial costumes serve
out candy, fancy work and refreshing
drinks. Several fancy work booths sepa-
rate the first stands from the paddle stand,
operated by a score or more of bowling,
sesticulating Shriners. attired in Arabian
costumes
Near the paddle booth Is a dainty Turkish
parlor, where handsome young women in
costumes of the orient serve delicious cof

with fancy work and refreshing drinks.
The third row Of booths is similar in char

bridge leading from the main floor, there

the prettiest in the entire fair The colos-
sal proportions OF the fair may be imagined

exhibit is veritable fair in itself. Public
dancing and refreshments are the promi-

or the dancing palace last evening was
scarcely less suspicious than the official in
auguration Of the fair itself. The pupils of
MISS Minnie Hawke will give a ballet to-
night during the amusement intermission.
