 The grand stand was comfortably filled. while there was a still larger crowd on the grounds. All the eX- hibitions were liberally partonized, and the attractions along the midway were getting their share.
 \ fact that was very pleasing to the fair commission was that -relter number Of people actually paid admission than heretofore Pre- Niously the enormous number of passes cut into the receipts to a great extent.
