NOTES.
"see! They go easy, and they don't
60 upside down"' said the little girl who
wanted to 60 round the Ferris wheel.
Pure spring water, the best drink on
the grounds, was dispensed by the W.
G. T. U. as usual, in booth near the
hall.
"The society has a valuable outfit
here" says one of the officers, land all
we need now is little more room. We
ought to have another field to park the
teams on, and put a man in charge of it."
Four policemen looked after the peace
and order of the grounds-Henry Lizotte
of Lewiston, and the local officers,
Charles Z. Bennett of South Paris,
George F. Hathaway and Charles F.
Boober of Norway.
In booth beside the hall, the merits
of Paroid and other brands of roofing
were demonstrated by S. p. Maxim &
Son, the agents. They have already
sold a large amount of this material,
and their sales are increasing.
It's all right for man to speak his
mind and make it strong, but what's the
use of all the unnecessary profanity that
pollutes the air? There's altogether too
much of tin fact, any is too much.
It's against the law, even though no
body pays any attention to the law.
And moreover, it is in bad taste, an
offence to the ears, and an infringement
of the right to decent treatment of
every one within hearing.
1t would be good plan If exhibitors
would put their entry tags somewhere
so that people may know what and
whose they are looking at, now that the
antiquated plan of marking the tags only
BY number has been done away. Most
of them do it, to be sure, but some of
them don't; and to look at some fine ap-
pearing cattle or other stock with 20
means of identifying it except chalk
mark on the pen or the stall which says
"Jones 1906" or simply 1905" is rather
unsatisfactory to those who would like
TO know something about it.
Although numerous automobiles were
running about among the crowd every
day, the only runaway accident during
the fair was apparently caused by drift.
ing piece of paper. George G. Twitchell
of South Paris had his horse and phaeton
hitched at the track fence Thursday
noon, and had fed the horse, when he got
scared, broke his halter, and started.
Frank w. Perkins and wife of South
Paris were sitting in the carriage to rest
at the time. Both were thrown out.
Mr.. Perkins was somewhat injured,
though not seriously, but Mrs. Perkins
had three ribs and finger broken. The
horse went across the grounds and out
at the entrance gate. He took a circle
around the Catholic church across the
street, and 10 the course of 1t struck a
pole, which removed most of the car
rage except the front wheels. Striking
out for South Paris, he took winding
course, and landed in Fogg's stable.
slightly scratched, but otherwise all
right.
