GREAT FAIR AT CAMBRIDGE
AUGUST 2f-22-23-24 and Is.

Next Wock. The Event of the
Season. The Great Cambridge
Fair Opens Early Monday Morning
And Closes Late Friday Evening.
Unless all signs fail this will be
the banner year at Cambridge, both
as TO the Agricultural exhibit and In
point of attendance. In addition to
an unusually long list of special at
fractions there IL the Famous Cur
tiss Aeroplane which will make
flights every day. This will attract
thousands and will alone be well
worth the price OF admission to the
entire Fair.
The early dates this year will be
a decided advantage as no schools
will be open and parents will not
have to keep their children from
school or stay at home because they
are In school, and 1t is perfectly fit
ting that both parents and children
have couple Of days at the Fair be-
fore school opens.
Another important point In favor
OF the early dates is the effect II
will have on the racing; after two
or three weeks of racing every horse
has his place, he knows just what he
can do and what others can do, but
the fun of horse racing Is when
horsemen are finding out what they
are up against. The races at Cam
bridge are among the first OF the
season. horsemen will not know
where they are at but all will be
fighting for first place and with the
long list of excellent horses there
must be good racing.
During all next week all roads
lead to the Cambridge Fair, you can
SO by regular or special train. by
team. automobile or aeroplane--take
your choice Of the way, but be sure
to get there some way.
