DANBURY FAIR
 NEXT WEEK
Prospect for a Larger Fair
 Than Ever Before

Everything is in readiness for the forty-sixth annual Danbury Fair, which opens Tuesday, Oct. 6, with a show that will eclipse all it's prede- cessors in magnitude. The Danbury Fair is a good example of what stick ing to principles will do. It is con ducted on business lines in all depart nents no favoritism is shown to ex- hibitors or shoWmen, and the amuse- rnerlts are clean and wholesome
 The horse departments are crowded with entries this year, the exhibition horses showing on the track Tuesday and Wednesday and the trotters, pac- CTS and runners Fhursday. Fr1oay anu Saturday. The cattle parade, always an interesting sight, will occur each afternoon of the fair
 The dog show and the poultry show, are among the largest of their kind in the country. The agricultural show and the acres of farm naachin- cry under belt will be away ahead of any shown at former Danbury Fairs.
 It is safe to say that there won't be a single one among the hundred thousand people who attend the fair during the week who will not visit the great automobile show. All the leading makes will be on display and hundreds of new auto accessories, the years new Inventions, will be shown, many of them for the very first time.
 Among the special features, will be two exhibitions daily by Walter C.. Morris, of Yonkers, N. Y., known as the s.Bee Charmer," who will han dle 6, 900 bees without face net, smoke or any protective device.
 Excursions are announced on all railroads leading to Daubury, and those who go by motor car will find improved highways leading to the grounds.

Reeilnelat Of Amazons.

Copenhagen, Oct. 3-Germany is considering plans for the formation of regiments of Amazons. Details as to the style of uniforms to be worn and the brand of powder to be used have not been decided upon. But the Gov ernment is seriously entertaining the suggestion that women regiments be organized to take the place of the Landwehr troops when the latter, constituting about the last set of re- servists, are sent to the front The women would doubtless be employed in defensive service.
 The Amazons of ancient times Ap- pear in connection with Greek le- gends. Their actual existence during any age has often been questioned by authorities. In the eighth century a band of women warriors are said to have fought against the Duke of Bo- yhenaia.l They ens1aved or put to death all men who fell into their clutches
