mittee of the Fiesta of the Dawn of
Gold extends to you most cordial
invitation to be it's guest at the
state fair on "Panama-Pacific Elk
position day." Tuesday, September
g. This will be the great day of the

a great day for the Panama-Pacific

destined to center the attention of
the world upon San Francisco in
1915. We want you and all San
Francisco to be with us on that
day.
The directors of the Panama-Pa-
cific International Exposition COM
pany, of (which you are one, have
generously promised their active CO.
operation in making this occasion a
grand success, and we believe it
will result in material benefit to the
state fair and create added interest
throughout California and the Pa
cifc coast in the great exposition
which San Francisco has in con-
temptation.
In order to make this day doubly
interesting the committee has aug
mented the regular fiesta program
by adding special aviation and
bUcking- horse contests, for which
additional purses, aggregating $500,
will be offered. The entire day
from 10 a. m. to 10 p. m. will be
crowded with exciting contests and
thrilling exhibitions.
AS explained to you by Mr.. Phil
lips and myself during our recent
visit to San Francisco, the Fiesta
NOTED by the business men Of Sac
ramento for the purpose Of arousing
greater interest in the state fair,
with the ultimate object of making
this somewhat neglected institution
a genuine asset to the state and a
source of pride and profit to the
people Of California.
Knowing and approaching your
unwavering interest in the plans
for the Panama Pacific exposition.
and your strong interest in all
things tending to advance the ma
terial prosperity Of California and
of Californians, we feel that with
out you "Panama-Pa Pacific day"
would fall short of the interest and
success we hope for it, and we
would be more than pleased and
honored by your acceptance of this
invitation.
With highest regards and trust
ing that we may have the honor of
your presence and the pleasure of
entertaining you on September g.
