THE PLANS AT BATH.
Next Week Will See Things Doing ir
Shipping City.

There is no question but what Angus
ia and the surrounding cities will send
crowds of people to Baths big SHOW
which opens next Friday and continues
through until the following Tuesday
night.
Bath gave a big show at the time of
its centennial last August and
Maine people have. not forgotten it.
The same people who handled last
years show are pushing this one and
they hope to eclipse their former CT
fort.
Five historical warships will be in the
port all through the show and they will
be open to visitors daily, including
Sunday. These are an attraction by
themselves and Il big one but Bath does
not stop there, instead she plans some
thing new for every day
Friday night the local newspaper men
will entertain the officers of the fleet
and all visiting newspaper men at New
Meadows Inn, Saturday there will be
other features, Monday will be The day
of Olympic games land and water
sports, Tuesday the big day of all
comes the great parade which will be
led by 800 marines and cadets from the
warships.
Saturday nights reception and ball
promises to be one of the most brilliant
social events in Baths history.
All through the week the street fair
and Midway will be one of the greatest
attractions. Scores of tent shows, Fer
ris wheels, merry go-rounds and others
will be in operation while there will be
free open air entertainments constantly
going on iii the streets which have been
taken for that purpose.
Bath will certainly make great big
effort this year and that means that
she will succeed
1t is estimated that more than 10000
strangers will be in Bath by Tuesday,
the big day and there will be some
thing doing all the time. The Maine
Retail Merchants Association will be
holding its midsummer field day there.
as guests of the Bath association and
all merchants in the shipping city that
day are expected to report at the head
quarters of the Bath association and
enjoy a sea trip, Il lunch on board the
steamer aud visit to the WarSnps as
well as seeing the parade and other
parts of the show.
