When is the best time to see the St
Louis Fair2 Any time from now
until the day it closes December /.
If you don care to go East for the
sole purpose of seeing the Fair-it is
worth doing so-arrange your timer
ary so that you will pass thro' St
Louis either going east or as you come
west on your way home.
Right here is where l can be of
value-in planning your trip, in
quoting rates and in telling you about
the Rock Island $ throguh car service.
Call or write. Rock Island trains
