THE home COMING
FEATURE Of FAIR AN

MANAGEMENT ASKS THAT LIST
BE FURNISHED TO THE
OFFICIALS.
MOTOR NIGHT is CONSIDERED
Fire Works Display to Occur the
Last Night Of Week--Many lnqul.
ries. for Catalogues and Entry
Blanks Are Numerous.

The copy for much of the csta.
logue is in the hands of the publish
ers and the work is being pushed
rapidly. The interest in the fair is
being made manifest each day by the
increased discussion of the various
events and the expressed intention
OF participation therein.
The home coming idea is perhaps
taking more enthusiastically than any
one other particular feature, and
there Is to be made strong effort to
get the wanderers back to the Dim.
pie once more. In accordance with
this idea the management has asked
and urges that those who know of
Maury countians in other states fur
Lish list at once to either the 5reas
urer, Geo. e. McKennon, the general
manager, ]. W. Shelton, or to the
secretary, Harris Puryear. Invita-
tons will be Gent out at later date
from this list urging the wanderers
to gather with the returning numbers
who will be seen here on the first
day of the fair.
Another feature which the manage.
ment is considering is having one
night set apart for an automobile
show. The different motor companies
represented here are preparing a
premium list and a program 70 be
announced later, and these premiums
vii be duplicated by the association
A fireworks display is also being
considered for the last night of the
fair, which, if undertaken, will be a
show with some of the
most spectacular features ever put
On in display of this character in
this city.
The association has just placed an
order for big lot of large poster I'D.
rertising and the county will be thor.
oughly advertised in every section,
rs will be the adjoining counties.
Secretary Harris Puryear is daily
n receipt Of inquiries for catalogues,
.ntry blanks end information gener-
lily, and this is being replied to as
lilly as possible att present. Cata-
ogues will be sent to those who
make these inquiries as soon as they
re published, and a list of the In
'uirers is being kept by the secre-
airy.

After the adjournment of the

a rather informal way as to the ID

opinion that disintegration had al

each individual would be permitted
to follow the Bull Moose or the Ele

would be had by the different rae
