LAST WORKING DAY BEFORE FAIR
DECORATIONS ABOUT COMPLETE
AND WORK OF INSTALLING EX-
HIBITS WILL BE RUSHED-TEN
CARNIVAL SHOWS HERE.

Today, the final working day before the
Fair-to open Monday morning-morc
that fifty persons will be buSily engaged
in making the last preparations. Prac-
tically all the exhibits are yet to be i'll
stalled. Many Of them probably will be
put in place today, principally the indus
trial exhibits. The farm products are
desired to be as fresh as possible ut all
times during the exhibition, therefore
these will begin coming in early Monday
morning.
With the setting of tOday's sun Man
ager L. III. Williams of the fair expects
to take a full and complete rest before
the real work of entertaining the visitors
begins Monday morning. Mr.. Williams
has been engaged i'll experimenting every
phase Of the work since the beginning Of
preparations.
The work of decorating the main top
will begin early this morning. The tent
will be enlivened with hundreds of yards
of streamers, bunting and flags by the
score. The work of decorating the va
rious departments under the direction of
the ladies-the art, the ladies', the culin-
airy, the school, and the plant depart
ments-iS about completed. These are
now ready practically for the exhibits.
The decorative effects are really fine. and
all who have seen them praise the work
most literally.
Probably one of the things most indi-
cative Of a fair is an apple crusher for
making cider. One of these was visible
on the grounds yesterday. The noise of
the machine. added to the noise of the
salesman. impresses one so that the fair
cider machine is never forgotten and if
not present is missed.
The Jap rolypoly men are already
here, and beginning Moncay seven balls
for a dime" will be all the rage with
those who are admirers of Japanese art
work-if you stay with it long enough to
roll up a score anywhere from one TO a
hundred thousand.
Carnival people also began to arrive
yesterday. and ten of the carnival shows
with all their paraphanalia and poles
have a1reaGy arrived in the city. Other
will come in today or tonight.

BROWNSVILLE HERALD PUB. co.
SATURDAY, JANUARY 4. 1913.
NOW FOL THE FAIR.

This is the last edition of The Herald
that Will appear before the opening Of
the ,Midwinter Fair. In common with
all 9th I good citizens of Brownsville,
the Herald is proud on the other fairs
which have preceded this. Yet, like all
other citizens, we are extremely anxious
that the n to begin Monday will in ali
respects represent a marked improve
ment on the others. The Midwinter Fair
has grown to a point when it has become
a responsibility as well as an entertain
ment. Every year sees the scope Of its
influence widen. More and more its
fame is spreading, until other towns are
taking up the idea.
The people are expecting things Of us
here. We must not fall short Of public
expectation, either in the number and
arrangement of exhibits, in our own at
tendance 1T the fair, or in our ability
to handle he crowds that are sure to
come. tv4, .f-u
This is not, be it observed, a private
enterprise, but a public one. True. the
Fair Association is incorporated, and
should in the course of time pay divi-
dends to the stockholders. But no man
OWNS a dollars worth Of stock in it as a
money-making proposition. 1t is a pub
lie enterprise, undertaken III a spirit of
local patriotism, having no other object
than the good of the community.
Our concern is to insure it, if possible,
against actual loss. 1t costs money to
run the fair, and the better the fair, the
more complete its equipment, the more
thorough and efficient its management,
the more it will cost; and the more it
will bring in.
Every citizen of this community should
constitute himself a committee of one to
boom the fair. The fair managers can,
no doubt, handle a. the mechanical de-
tails, and the business details. Let them
at least have our good word. Above all
let us make the visitors welcome. Let us
make sure that the word does not 90 out
that Brownsville cannot handle the
crowds that come to the fair. Let no
visitor have reason to grOwl because of
insufficient entertainment or inhospita-
BILE treatment.
