Childrens day at the fair brought a
record-breaking crowd yesterday. Thou
sands upon thousands of youngsters
streamed through the gates all day yes
terday and scattered over the grounds in
every direction. Most of them We're de-
cidedly on their good behavior.
In handling the immense crowd of chill
dren but little trouble was experienced.
Only a few were lost, and they soon found
themselves. There were few who gave
trouble, and they were quickly punished
by those in charge of them. There were
no accidents Of any kind during the en-
tire day.
All Of the schools in Salt Lake City
were closed yesterday in order to give
the pupils the opportunity to attend the
fair. The board of education recognized
the Importance Of the great educational
features of the fair, and felt assured
teachers would learn much at the fair.
The various exhibits of the different in
dustries Of the state were of great educa-
tiOnal value TO the children, many OF
whom for the first time grasped some
of the real facts relative to Utahs re-
sources. To the children the fair was a
practical demonstration of the lessons
they are learning in school The value
of these lessons was, perhaps, not ap-
parent to the children until they saw the
disqualification of their studies in the &C
tual showing made at the state fair
The children were attracted by every
feature of the fair, Some of them even
all of the exhibits. They passed in great
throngs from building to building and IN
speCted with a critical eye everything on
the grounds.
