Putnam patriot., 1909-08-27
Fair of the Putnam Park and
 Fair Corporation.
Wednesday and Thursda, the Great Days

Wednesday and Thursday the Great Days l Next week will witness the greatest
 attraction and the largest crowd ever
 seen at the Putnam Fair. Wednesday
 and Thursday will be the great days,
 and every one who can should be pres-
 ent on Wednesday.
 The Trustees, who have, this year,
 done so much to meet the desires of the
 moral and religious community, that
 they are justified in expecting the lar
 gest attendance at the Fair ever before
 seen there. In addition they have pro-
 vided the greatest series of attractions
 they have ever had.
 The great interest aroused, among young and old, is the combined | WILD WEST sHow-TExss STEERS ON sTAMPEDE.
 The atmosphere at the Windham
 County Fair grounds, this week is of | decidedly W estern character, owing | to the arrival of
 Kemp's Great International Wild West show"
 No having come from Crescent Park, | Providence, where it was the big fea- ture attraction for two months; and No. ? coming ditect from Lincoln Park, Worcester, where it amused and enter tained thousands of people during it's two weeks stay ythere-having been en- gagged by the Park Management as a magnet to draw the people.
 Nos. and have been combined and will be at the Fair this year as the fea- ture, par excellence, of all features, in- troducing COW boys, COW girls, Mexi- cans, Indians, squaws and papooses, bucking bronchos, wild Texas steers which the Mexican bucharros will ride. The great Deadwood stage coach "hold up,n the Pony Express, and many oth- CT features too numerous to mention, one of the stellar attractions being Miss Jennie Cody, youngest, lady rifie.shot in the world.
 To see the COW boys in their roping and subduing bucking bronchos, is a rare treat to old and young; in fact II is fun, amusement, entertainment and sensation, from alpha to omega. 4 serious accident was narrowly aver ted Tuesday night at the grounds; one of the long horned Texas steers going on stampede. Doc Barnett, of the side show, being in the path of the brute, escaping by hairs-breadth, as the steer run a horn through his hat, destroying his, head-gear but luckily not injuring the Doctor. The big show is run with a perfect system, and everything that Is done IS conducive to the comfort of its patrons and their entertainment. The first big Parade will take place next Tuesday, starting from the Fair grounds and marching to the city. It will include all members of the compa- nv. and the two bands.
 Reside their regular side-show, there will be six free acts, which will take place daily on the race track.
 The Ladies Department, from house. hold affairs to fine arts, has had eve " attention give 10 each exhibit by a corps oflour most skilled ladies.
 The poultry exhibit is yearly attract ing greater public attention, and this year promises to suspass all previous exhibits.
 The Children's Department has al- ways found great favor with the pub
 lie. and cannot fail 10 this year.
 The fruit and vegetable display, for which generous prizes are offered, VIII doubtless win special favor the present wear. The display of flowers are al ways special attraction, and great nreparations are being made to have il surprisingly large and attractive
 The other agricultural exhibits will be mn h highest expectation this year. The race track is one Of the finest in ,he S,ate. and the sl .1oo offered as pre- n,inms will doubtless attract some of the fastest horses.
 II is impossible to name all the va rious exhibits. much less describe them in detail. They can only be aPprecia- ted by being seen, and the opportunity will be given the public next week to judge for themselves.
