FlREMFN'S CARNIVAL A GREAT SUCCESS
PROCEEDS EXPECTED TO EXCEED $500

The grounds Immediately became
the center of action, and hither
f1ocked the crowds. Amusements
for young and old had been pro-
vided by careful forethought allo
the people lost no time in availing
themselves of the chance. The
merry-go-round claimed its usual
crowd of devotees, as it sent forth
the strains of familiar airs.
"Throwing at the Babies" proved
such an attraction that even the
ladies found it irresistible, though
the reward in view was only a ci-
gar. Throwing for canes" and
the paddle wheel suggested other
channels of fun. One was be-
seiged on all sides by those with
"chance books" which however
were not regarded by the major
ity as a means of playing a game
of chance, but merely OF getting a
liberal return for the article sold.

notable one. 1t has indeed been
a gala week ;or the whole COM
munity.
The object of the carnival which
has held the town in it's sway for
the last six days-that of improv-
ed fire protection-is close to
everyone's heart, and this fact has
been demonstrated by the enthus-
iastic response on the part of the
people.
The crowds on Saturday and
Wednesday evenings have been
pronounced the largest ever seen
on the college grounds, while the
streets were lined with teams and
filled with happy, gayly chatter
ing throngs. The quiet that set

was broken. We were carried be-

vond ourselves and deposited in
such hustling prosperous en-
yironment as the town expects to
see within the next decade. One
thoughtful citizen was heard to
remark: lust look at the people!
Newark could never have gotten
together such a crowd ten years
ago. A new era is dawnlng! They
are all finding the means OF max
ing an honest living-are pros
porous and content.
Shortly after seven thirty on
Wednesday evening, the Carnival
opened with the automobile par
ade. Twenty-Five citizens respond
ed to the suggestion of the Fire
men and fell into line. The even
ing was not perfectly clear, which
caused it to be almost dark before
the passing of the parade. 1t is
claimed owing to this, some OF
the cars lost in attractiveness. Sev'
eral of the cars were beautifully
decorated. The prize OF ten dol
lars in gold was divided, five go,
ing to Mayor J. H. Hossinger and
five to E. L. Richards. Mayor
Hossinger's car was bower OF
flowers, the blossoms o. the beat
tiful golden glow nodding grace
fully to the admiring throng. Box
wood and bit of garnet gave the
touch of contrast in the color
scheme, which emphasized the ar
tistic effect. Mr.. Richards, as Un-
Gle Sam, drove his car which rep
resented America. The distln-
suished passenger was none other
than the Goddess of Liberty,
which parsonage was represented
bv Miss Helen McNeal. Draped
American flags added to the de-
coration of this car.
