Grinnell, Sept. All it needs now
is three days of good weather and the
Grinnell fair will be a hummer. The
grounds yesterday afternoon were
scene of building activity that prom
ised great things for today's display.
Everything will be in full blast and
the crowds on the shuttle train from
noon until 3 o'clock would have made
respectable attendance in them
selves. Adding to these the crowds
that came by team and autos and those
that came from both north and south
by train and it looked like a record
breaker. The stock pens were full
early and the racing stables have no
vacancies. The management has
spoken in no uncertain tones regard
ing games of chance and there is
nothing in sight that seems to even
lean that way. In addition to the fine
rest tent put up by woman's Christian
Temperance Union, as in former years,
there is roomy tent well foored and
supplied with rockers and easy chairs
to which all tired people, men as we'll
as women are cordially invited and
where fans and refreshing draughts Of
water are supplied freely by the cour-
tesy Of the Christian Science ladies.
The pure water from the deep wells
Of the city has been piped to the
grounds and will be cooled so that all
may quench their thirst without any
fear of possible typhoid germs.
