q great interest was manifested in the
proposition. A great many openly IA
vored holding the fair some time this
summer. A few others thought i;
should be neld later. All OF this will
likely be thoroughly considered and dis
cussed at the next meeting OF the CIVIC
club. Others who had not gwen much
thought to the matter are now Decoh.
ing Interested The sentiment is that
il such an attraction be secured 1t
should be a first-claSS street talr one
that would be q credit to the city sew
eral shows which have sent their pro
grams from time to time to the Ivy =
club were mentioned, but at present
none of them seem TO have perseverance
over the others.
The idea expressed is that the street Idlr
should held in seasonable time Out
rot so as to conflict with the state 1a1r:
Il have not learned the sentiment OF
the people with regard 20 the matter.

~, ant in
the Civic club and it is likely that they
will be asked about dates. However,
it is a question in my mind just Whch
is the best time for street fair. AS
lar as the companies themselves are
concerned the best propositions can DE
made with them when they are close
enough to avoid the expense of a long
Jump to get here. In any event we do
not wish to conflict with the state fair
Indeed 1 favor the bringing of a
street fair here said J. r. Spetter, an
active Civic club member. Il would IKE
10 see a good carnival company show
here with the best of attractions
However, we would not like to conflict
with the arrangements for the state

At a Topeka boarding house girl
never removes her gum and sticks It
under the table at meal times like the

she would get the wrong COB of gum
back if she would do so.
