gates IN 1907
That's the question being asked b.
the people Of half a dozen states il
the east who are interested in thi
greatest Of all eastern fairs.
Here Is the answer:
Yes.
The 1911 Trenton Fair will be tru,
10 its slogan
Greater, grander than everl
True, the mere saying so will no
make 1t so; consequently Secretary
Mahlon Margerum and Assistant Sec
rotary L. P. Randall, pleased over the
bright outlook, do not hesitate to dis
cuss the plans.
There are so many new things, sc
many innovations, for 1911 that it is
difficult to determine just where to be-
Sin.
Last year az a feature the Fair In.
troduced the Wright brothers aero
planes in marvellous flights.
That was the limit, the spectators
said.
Not so.
The Trenton Fair Will go that one
better this year and offer a woman
IN air flights.
What! A woman making flights in
one of those tricky, air, birdlike af-
fairs?
Even so.
Miss Harriet Quimby, dramatic edi-
tor Of Leslie's Weekly, one Of the
nerviest. daintiest and most charming
little women In the world, has become
one Of the air conquerors, and she will
demonstrate at the Trenton Fair that
q woman can do anything a man can
IN tn line of air navigation.
A magnificent new building has just
been completed for a horse show that
will equal anything that has been seen
in the east. The. show will be under
the direction Of R. A. Fairburn, ac-
knowledged as one Of Americas lead
directors Of events of this kind.
As a distinct feature Of the show there
will be a special class for C~lydesdales
and P~ercherons and already a classy
entry list has been secured.
Vaudeville?
More thrilling, more sensational than
ever.
Absolutely the cream of thrills and
.cnsations has been %garnered by the
vaudeville director, William
Horticulture will be given greater
prominence than IN any former year
or two entire buildings will be devOt-
ID to this branch Of the fair under the
direction of Professor A. NJ. Blake.
Look for something far out of the or
You'll not be disappointed.
The children's Department.
Enlarged so as to make 1t the most
important demonstration Of children's
work ever attempted in this country.
Agricultural implements?
An entirely new arrangement where
by the vast plot Of ground used for this
has been laid out like q minia-
city
with avenues and streets so that you
can find any class Of exhibit you are
interested in by looking at a chart
which will be handed you without
charge.
This Is a decided innovation and n
that will find general favor.
Speed racing9
You know the class of racing that
delighted Trenton Fair patrons last
September
The fields will be larger this year
and the entries more classy; therefore
as a matter OF course the racing an
not help but be better,
Another great improvement will be
found In the cattle exhibit. There is
to be a ring surrounded by seats where
the cattle will be shown and Judged.
This will surely please all interested
in cattle and will attract the best cat
tie the Trenton Fair has eyer exhibit
ed.
There will also be one Of the finest
automobile shows of the year, at which
will be exhibited cars Of almost every
manufacture. Many Of the 1912 mod
els will be shown both IN pleasure cars
and In commercial trucks.
Take this tip: II you are ab all inter
ested in motorcars don't miss the Tren-
ton Fair auto exhibit in the handsome
new exhibition hall under the grand
stand.
There are a score OF other things, but
these few are mentioned just to give
q faint idea that the secretaries are no
talking through their hats when they
say that Of a truth the Trenton Fat
Of 1911 will be greater, grander thar
ever.
