TODAY CHILDREN
DAY At FAIR AND
MANY WILL ATTEND
1T is A HOLIDAY AT ALL OF THE
SCHOOLS AND A FINE PRO-
GRAM HAS BEEN PREPARED
FOR THE LITTLE ONES.

Today being Children's Day at the
Escambia County Fair it is expected
that several thousand school children
will attend the big exhibition. The
day having been declared a holiday
for the schools of the county all
teachers and pupils and parents are
expected to go to Kupfrian's park and
see the show.
Through the courtesy of the fair
management, Manager Barfeld of the
Metropolitan shows, now holding the
boards at the midway, and Manager
Herrider of the circulation depart
ment of The Journal the entire force
of Journal carriers will be treated to
the courtesies of the Escambia Coun-
ty Fair today. They will be allowed
to spend the day inside the grounds
and to see all the shows on the mid
way free of any cost whatever to
them. This is a great treat for the
Woodworking Journal boys and will
be much appreciated by them. They
will go to the grounds in a body this
morning, starting from The journal
Office about 10 o'clock.

this valuable article at the fair
grounds.
The several well-arranged booths
of the different church societies rep
resented at the fair grounds add
much to the appearance as well as to
the comfort of the fair. At these
booths hot lunches of almost any size
and price can be he'd at all hours of
the day.
Taken in every department it is
claimed for it that this is one of the
most instructive exhibits ever held al
Kupfrian's park. One idea appears
to have prevailed among exhibitors
get those articles forward which
will be of the greatest good to the
greatest number.
Today will perhaps witness the
record attendance thus far. Yester-
day must have seen twice the number
at the fair grounds that had attended
either Monday or Tuesday.

The game was one of the best of
the series, and showed the ability of
the winners to drop the ball through
the little iron ring on the end of the
court. The team work of the Seniors
was excellent.
The game was well attended espe-
cially by the fair ones from the Pen

"Ping Bodie" Caro- was there, and
every time he looked in the gallery
he shot goal.
Slim Mobiles, the star center for
the winners, out-tapped the veteran,

stay with the phenomenal Barrow,
who continually dropped them in from
the middle of the field.

the opponents, also his partner, De-
