THE CARNIVAL CO.
SAYS GOODBYE
-
And Fold Their Tents
to Seek Other
Parts
MANAGER BERGER TAlKS
Says He Thanks God That There are
a Few People in Brunswick Who
Helped Him While in Trouble

The Berger Carnival Company
which had SCI mush and ..aused SC
much trouble in Brunswick, has gone
and it is useless to say, never to re
turn to the city.
The company quietly folded it's tents
Sunday, and Sunday night, each mem-
ber delighted, took tn etrain for Flor.
ida, where the carnival is booked to
play this week.
Besides all the trouble that the
masagers had here they also came out
two or three hundred dollars to the bad
and one or two of the shows was dis
banded here.
Manager Berger, to a News report
er, said he found a number of good
friendly citizens here, who seemed to
have a little sympathy for people in
trouble, but 1 have never, in all my
experience and have been in the car
nlval business for years, received such
treatment as | did in Brunswick, and
II 1t had not been for one or two kind
hearted citizens who helped me think
my whole company would have been
compelled to quit business in Bruins
wick.
When 1 came to Brunswick | did
not expect to make money, for the
simple reason that the carnival had
not been Thoroughly advertised in the
surrounding country, but as / had an
open week, l thought might be able
tC clear eqpenses here, but l can hon
estly state that am two or three hun
|dred dollars loser.
You may tell the people OF your city
that they wills never hear from the
Berger Carnival Company again.
ITO those who assisted me l return
my sincere appreciation and thank
God that you have few sympathetic
people in your pretty little city
