That 1t does not work any more effectively tor
having had its big show is proved,--or would
seem to be proved--by the census returns so far
available for the larger cities. Bearing ON the
census in a general way the bureau has sent out
some advance information under date of the
2nd. The bureau has up TO this date announced
the population of twenty-five cities having popu-
latlon of over 100000 inhabitants each. All
but seven of these cities made greater absolute
increase of population in the decade, 1900 to
1910, than in the preceding decade, 1890 to 1900.
The seven exceptions comprise Buffalo, Grand
Rapids, New Haven, Patterson, Pittsburg, St.
Louis and Toledo. Note that of the seven ex-
ceptions of cities that in this decade have fallen
behind the growth of the ten years preceding,
two-Buffalo and ST Louis-in the last census
period had world fairs of great magnitude. If
these fairs had possessed any real commercial
or economic benefit. it is reasonable to suppose
that the census would have indicated it. Yet so
far as their effect is disclosed by the figures the
big shows were hurtful, rather than helpful. At
lanta, on the other hand, which fifteen years ago
pulled off" big exposition, when it was itself
small thirdrate city, reaped great benefit from
ITS experience. 1t tried the exposition game" at
time when it was good play. 1t appears
that more recent efforts were directed in accord
ance with an outworn theory
Considering the troubles in connection with
he jamestown Exposition, we trust that Nor
folks growth over the figures of the last census
was established before 1907 and that by 1920
there viii be nothing left in the showing to in
dictate that the exposition which was born of
high hopes is still exerting depressing influence.

L he Charlotte Observer takes The TirQin1an

BIG SHOWS AND THE CENSUS.

Census returns for a number of the larger
cities serve to east renewed doubt upon the
practical value OF great expositions In years
gone, when travel was less universal and the
nation more rural and more serious in its pleas
ures, the occasional exposition served as the best
possible advertising medium The Centennial
Fair at Philadelphia no doubt gave that CIT, an
impulse which extended proftably through two
decades. The Worlds Fair at Chicago. not
withstanding it came in time of panic was
perhaps worth the time and money to the city,
Both abroad and in other places in America
notably the New Orleans exposition-history
records successes of this sort There j. gaining,
however, an impression that the extensive fair
is an economic loss. 1t does NOT now make bust
ness as it once did. 1t does not induce popula-
ton, as was once the case. From inevitable
temporary over-eXpansion is left longer or
shorter period of trying depression The big
fairs have come too often to be considered Sc
riously. Their motif has changed from tic edu-
cational to the pleasure giving. People who
spend their money to enjoy themselves find what
they want at the fairs and nothing more In
vesting nothing, they leave nothing When the
fair is over, the artificial population moves on
to the next one, there TO meet the visitors who
have also moved on. In some way or another the
debts are paid, or compromised, or the creditors
take their losses. The oysters are eaten and
put down in the bill'. The particular city con-
cerned draws a red line under the account. signs
at the expense and the demoralization-an goes
to work
