Big Events.
BILL HANCOCK COUNTY

The southern half OF Hancock
county seems as much enthused
about the revival of the big Keokuk
fan celebrations as are other sec
lions around Keokuk.
In the days Of the original big
street fairs that part of the country
turned out en- masse, and they talk
like they were going to do the same
thing this year, the nrst week IN DC
tober.
Yesterday j. M. Fulton went on a
trip posting the big red signs read
ing:

FALL CELEBRATION

And when he got back home last
evening Estelle's speedometer regis
tered eighty miles travelled over all
the principal roads of the south half
Of the adjoining Illinois county.
Everybody Knows About It.
The towns visited included Suffer.
West Point, Bowen, Augusta, Ply
mouth, st. Mary's, and Bentley.
Everywhere there was interest in the
Keokuk fall celebration, and one Of
the signs could be placed anywhere
as soon as the owner of the building
or fence saw what it advertised.
One of the red banners was placed
at every cross. roads and jog in the
road throughout the big circle driven
through Hancock county and they
were so placed as to face every trav-
eler along the road from whatever
direction. All four entrances to each
town was covered in every case.
No previous public celebration here
was quite SO well advertised by road
signs as has been the fall celebra-
ton the first week in October. this
year. J. M. Fulton has not only
worked hard at it, but has become an
expert in placing every banner in a
position that counts the most and
compels the attention of the people
