NE BLUFF ARKANSAS, WEDNESDAY 12 1910
ZINE BLUFF DAY AT
 STATE FAIR FRIDAY

portunity of spending Monday in Hot Springs, we deem it advisable to give to the people our views concerning the fair at this time The people like ourselves cannot possibly con- ceive the magnitude of the Arkansas State Fair unless an opportunity be given them to attend. The officials of the State Fair some time ago set aside Friday, Oct. 14th as Pine Bluff Day. The Board of Trade of our city accepted the invitation and committee of one hundred and fifty citizens was appointed to make the occasion a success not only for Pine Bluff but for the State Fair.
 A great interest is being manifest ed by every county in the state in sending various exhibits representing a great variety of agricultural horti- cultural and mineral products and a large range of fine live stock that Arkansas produces. It is incumbent upon Pine Bluff and Jefferson county to boost itself on Pine Bluff Day by having large representation of our people there. It is desired that all the merchants of the city permit their employees to attend the Fair. The public schools, private and parochial will have vacation on Pine Bluff Day for the purpose of at tending. Many of the industrial plants have signified their willing ness to close in order that all of their employees that desire may at tend the Fair.
 A band has been secured for the occasion and special trains will leave Pine Blnff for Hot Springs on Friday morning at { and 7:3O o'clock, re- turning that night to Pine Bluff. The fare for the round trip will be $2.25. Arrangements have been made for the decorations necessary at Hot Springs for the automobiles that will lead the procession Friday, Pine Bluff Day.
 Pine Bluff Day will be the great racing event at the State Fair. The worlds record will no doubt be beat en Friday afternoon at Oaklawn. Such horses as Dan Patch and Min or Heir make this event possible. Pine Bluff Day will also be Frat ernal Day and this will be an attrac- tive feature. Pine Bluff desires all the boost ing her people cam give her and we believe that there is no better oppo:- tunity than the State Fair at Hot Springs. We are fully convinced of this since we have had an opportun- ity to see for ourselves.
 Everything that is produced in Az kansas will be found exhibited at the State Fair.
 We call upon our citizens to mani fest their usual active interest and let everyone put his shoulder to the wheel and make Pine Bluff day the greatest day at the State Fair.
