TWO BUSY BUREAUS
At INTERSTATE FAIR.
They Are the Men Who Know
It All" at Spokane.

The Spokane Fair is going to open
Sept. 80. Several thousand employees
are working on it now, and of all that
army of help it is safe to say the hard
est worked Of all is the information
bureau man.
He says he answers million ques-
lions a minute. At any rate, he does
answer some and keeps right on an
swering them all Fair week. He can
tell you where the model creamery is
located, what the prizes are for the log
chopping and the rock drilling contests,
where the Farm Boys school is in
camp, why the Spaniards conquer
Mexico every night, where the post
Office and express Office are, which COW
won the milk test, the exact time of
the Derby, the names of the judges at
the big baby show, why the Washing
ton State college and the Idaho State
university exhibits almost fill whole
building, where the firemen's tourna'
ment Is being conducted, how to re,
serve a seat for Saturday, explain the
new harness race system, locate the
latest farm machinery exhibits, show
the way $500 is to be divided fol
county and district display prizes and
direct a few tired mothers to the free
nursery, where the babies can be left
with a competent nurse to look aftel
them.
And downtown in the Chamber O.
Commerce building, at Washington
and Riverside, another information
bureau is busy keeping an up to dat
list Of rooms and taking care Of strau
gers who might have trouble findin
place to sleep. If you don't thin
these two information men are goo
and busy, call on them next week an

discovered that he was universally
disliked by about everybody in town
except old Bronson, but beyond that
there wasn't much said about him. He
kept to himself entirely. living in an
old stone house on the side hill with
only an old housekeeper for company.
Hc was q bachelor and had neither

from his house to the Office, from the
o1ice back to the house. This was
about all that anybody but his house
keeper saw Of him.
