twenty-one booths scattered through
the grounds made gay patches of color

maidens in popcorn hats and sunbon-
nets. young girls dressed to represent
different flowers. and the small clowns
and the boys in sailor suits.

vaudeville and Mrs. Jarley's wax works
were in full swing, while in another cor

soft music. The Bandurria trio, with
Miss Etel Lucretia Olcott at its head,
wandered in and out, adding their mu-
sic to the harmony of sound, color ana
laughter The Shetland pony carts
and dog carts were well patronized by
