Now let everybody get together and work for e big, the biggest. best and most successful fair ever given in Ala bama.
 Every indication points to a big week. the crowds that gathered at Nandfver Park Friday and Saturday and yesterday are an excellent promise of big attendance of Montgomery and State people for the six days of the exhibition. Each is confident that the greatest total attendance ever record- cd at an Alabama State Fair will be a Feature of the present one.
 Yesterday. Sunday. was quiet day at Vandiver Park. None of the enter prfses, with the exception of q few buildings and the ubiauitous 'red hot" men took on any sembiance of business. However, a thousand or more people were on the grounds during the after noon and walked about visiting the site of the different exhibits and plan ming what they will do later in the week.
 Twice during the afternoon sacred concerts were given by the Helen May Butler Ladies' band, and the crowd gathered about the grand stand and enjoyed the really good music the band produced. Repeated encores were de- inanded and the leader of the instru- snentalists graciousiy met the insistent denands with still more melody.
 All of the unfinished and temporary effect of the various exhibits. whether housed in the large buildings of the eafr. in tents at different points about the grounds or stretched in ailuring in- vitatfon along 'arhe Curve was absent yesterday.
 It Is no small task to complete the arrangements and form of an enter prise ss big as the Montgomery fair and st meant a lot of hard work and long hours. But the end. the wholly acceptable result, is one that warrants congratulations to the officiais of the association. it's workers and represen- tatives of business firms and others ssumbered among the exhibitors.
