PRINCETON BOY AT WORLDS FAIR.
Some of the Attractions That Caught the
Eye of Young America.
My dear readers: am boy of six
teen years who, during my vacation,
went to the worlds fair at st. Louis.
I staid there about a month and saw
a good deal more in that time then I
ever thought person could.
The first day I was in the city of St.
Louis [ took a street car ride towards
the fair grounds and sized them up.
The next day was Monday, so got up
carly dAO UOOA UIc Cdi lOi Gut
grounds.
The gates of the grounds were open
at eight o'clock and there was a large
number of people waiting to be ad-
mitted. Once inside the grounds the
first thing I did was to take an auto
ride around the grounds. On this
ride one could get the lay of the
grounds and see the outside of all the
buildings. AS we would pass a build
ing the man who ran the auto would
tell us what it was and tell about it.
When the ride was over I started to
look for place to get something to
eat. I soon found one which served
good meal but when came to pay for
it I found they charged an extra good
price.
After dinner started to go through
the buildings. The first one I went
through was the Manufacturers build
ing. TO begin with, this building
contained all the manufactures of the
world, large and small. The first
thing that caught my eye was the
"Fairy Soap Bubble Fountain. -
This was about ten feet high and kept
sending forth bubbles all the time.
The next thing was the Pennsylvania
coal exhibit. The coal was there in
all the different stages from the time
it left the mine till it was ready to put
in the stove. Then all the machinery
and tools that were used to get the
coal out of the mine and to refine it
we're there and there was a man to
show and explain to you everything.
Right at the side of this was a large
piece of Georgian marble. This was
six feet by eight feet and was the best
piece of marble I saw any place
on the grounds. The next thing l
saw was the way they mine gold and
silver in Mexico, and specimens of the
ore and mineral after it was refined
The first process was the hydraulic.
The next was the process of blasting
the ore with dynamite.
The people of Sweden had a good
exhibit. The most interesting of this
was the shoe manufactures. The peo-
pie were there just as they are in the
factories across the water and were
making the shoes which we're put on
sale in the large stores of St. Louis.
The Brown shoe factory also had a
good exhibit.
The Chinese and Japanese had a
large exhibit. The Japs had an es-
pecially good one. In the Transport
tation building there was a model of
every one of their war ships and all of
the different ways Of travelling in their
country. In the Varied Industries
they had a large exhibit of dishes,
vases, hand-carved furniture, and a
Jap palace with all the fixtures just
as it is in the old country.
The Chinese exhibit was not as large
as the Japs, but in many ways was
just as good and as interesting.
Among other things was a lot of silks,
lanterns, small altar with all it's
trimmings, old fashioned wood work
inlaid with ivory, vase that is two
hundred years old and one that is five
hundred, a table two hundred and
forty years old and stone that shows
the rank of the person that has it.
The next thing was bed room of the
palace. The first thing that would
catch your eye was the bed. This was
made of highly polished wood, hand
craved. In one part of this was a
secret drawer where the owner of the
bed kept jewels or valuables. In
another part was wardrobe. The
pillow-cases were of the finest kind of
silk, such as you very seldom find in
any part of this country, and were
covered with haa1,tif,,1 no nj oo;1A:~o
