The Gimlet, little pamphlet
that bores to the quick on all bust
ness methods of disease or unsound
nature says: In every city there
is class of men who have uric
acid on the brain and sDasmodic
contraction OF the heart. These
men seek distinction and promi-
neuce in their community by kick
ing aHainst every move towards
lettering civic conditions, and by
advertising to the world that the
particular place there they live is
rottenest location on the face of
Gods green foOtstool. Citizens
of this class can never make any
practical Suggestions, they are
never willing to support any
movement, but put in their leisure
hours, as they blow the foam eff
their stems of beer, Kicking and
criticising and questioning the
motives of the other fellow-who
is devoting his time, energy and
money to the building UP of the
city,
You find them everywhere.

garded among breeders and owners to

MANY SPLENDID FEATURES
BOOKED.

The greatest agricultural, live stock
and educational event in the South Is
the Kentucky State Fair, the eleventh
annual celebration of which will be
held in Louisville, September 1920
next during the most beautiful and al.
Turing season of the entire year.
At this exhibition will be shown
workshop and the factory, and the
rarest examples of cultivated flowers,
plants, art work, needle work, county
school exhibits, a model dairy and
many other entertaining and instruc.
tive features.
The new features introduced for the
years fair will include the Kentucky
State Fair Futurity for saddle bred
foals of 1913, an event equal in i'm.
portance and dignity to the great rae.
ing futurities on the thoroughbred and
trotting turf.
In addition to these there are three
special saddle horse stakes, nomina.
ton to which closed April Is, with the
most creditable list. of entrants that
have ever been recorded for a like
event. Horse racing, always attractive
and pleasing to the fair going public,
will be on a bigger scale than ever be
fore. Recognizing the popularity OF
this sport as well as the value of the
branch of horse breeding business ii
represents, the State Fair management
has offered four 81 900 stakes for this
years meeting. There will be four.
teen other harness events and two or
three running races every day. As
the fair precedes the fall race at Doug
las Park, some of the crack runners in
training at the local tracks will doubt
less compete in these races.
There will be free attractions toe
numerous to mention, but sufficient tc
give visitors to the Fair a constant
round of novel and attractive enter
tainment
