great deal has been said in criticism
thereof which is untrue. Believing
that readers of the Mirror would ap-
Ipreciate the real facts in connection
with this exposition and its sur
lroundings, n representative Of The
Mirror recently made trip there, thor
Ioughly investigating into all details
of the trip and and The information
herewith may be relied upon accur-
lately by all who have this delight
| full excursion in prospect. Later on,
land in few days, the Mirror will

Mirror realizes that many desire to go.
ut realizes that many cannot afford
to so unless an economical arrange

duce the cost as compared with what
a single individual would have to
