In the matter Of general amusement
chat has been arranged for this years
Louisiana State Fair, there is no great
er announcement to be made than The
one by Secretary LouiS N. Bruegger-
hotf to the effect that the Gladway at
fractions will be furnished by Herbert

people. From the opening day, October
80, until the end of the last day, Nov.
s, the Kline shows Will be in operation
On the Gladway, and there will be va
riety enough to please everybody.
Many people go to the Fair to take
In" the carnival attractions. Exhibits
don't amuse them very much. They
want something that will require no
thought or study; something that will
simply entertain without any effort on
their part. And it is this that the
Kline shows will furnish.
Throughout the country Herbert A.
Kline's ability as a carnival entertainer
and leader Is recognized. He Is con-
adered M Of the very best In that
line Of business. This is evidenced by
the large number of Fairs, c%arnivals
and expositions that he attends. His
shows are constantly in demand, for
the various managers know what to
expect when Kline is booked. In Sc
curing this carnival man and his col
lection Of entertainers the Louisiana
Fair Association feels fortunate. They
have had hin before and he has
pleased immensely. Last year he was
here and once before he furnished the
Gladway amusements. The fact that
he has been engaged again indicates
the favorable impression he has made
The visitors have been pleased and
have told the management so, n the
management, having the pleasure OF
the visitors at heart above all else, has
considered that it has done a popular
thing in ~persuading Mr.. Kline to re-
turn.
These shows will be strictly clean.
Besides their moral atmosphere, they
will be Of educational character. and
those taking them in" will learn
something as well as being entertained.
There will be no takers or freaks In
the aggregation. Heretofore some OF
these have been shown. but this year
nothing Of the pit or freak sort will be
operated. y viii be a line of shows
that will 'leave 2 good taste In the

think he or she had been taking a
bitter dose. The radiance Of this class
has been looked after carefully. This
IL the report reaching the secretary's
office, Manager Kline giving his word
for it, and, knowing Kline like they
do, the Fair Associations officials feel
safe in making the announcement.
