WINDOW DISPLAYS. One of the attractions
of a Boston department store is genuine old
time ring ircus, with real ponies, real
dogs, real clowns and bucking mule, all per-
forming in a real ring of sawdust and the
performance is SO maritorious as to interest
elders as well as delight children. This store
also has window display which is attracting
much attention. It is reproduction of
Canadian winter carnival and shows the Can
adams at play, all the popular Winter sports
being included There is, for instance, min
iature lake on which number of people are
skating around and around, now and then
cutting figure g. or other fancy turn. Then
there is the great ice palace, which is stormed
at the height of the carnival season, man
on skis is ascending hill in the expert
way On another hill tobogganing is being
enjoyed. OF course such attractions are only
possible in the large city stores, but window
displays are becoming generally recognized as
effective advertising. Such displays, however,
only appeal to the passers-by and further pub
LEFTY through the newspapers is essential.
The local displays have increased in attractive
ness each year and visitors to Belfast at this
season will find nsp action of the shop
windows interesting. suggestive and profitable.
