"SkFETY FIRST" AT
OHIO STATE FAIR
StreetcarS Take Visitor Directly
Into State Fair Grounds.

One Of the most important changes
which have been made at the Ohio
State Fair grounds for the big exhi-
bition during the last five days OF
August is the provision for the safety
of the hundreds of thousands of peo.
pie who will come streaming in to sea
"Ohios greatest institution" 1t is
a change in line with the best thought
of the day-"safety first"
1t was not until this year that Ohio
put into real practice that which she
has been trying to teach for these
many years. Formerly, the visitor
to the fair. grounds, in measure,
"took his life in his hands," when he
went to the great fair. To get to the
grounds people were compelled to
cross a series of tracks, double
track railroad along which trains
were whizzing throughout the day
and night. Watchmen were con-
stantly on duty, but the safety provi-
sions were necessarily far from sat-
isfactory. .,..
The street cars came to the
grounds on the loop that was any
thing but pleasing, because it COM
PEELED passengers to board cars on a
narrow strip and it required rough
work oftentimes to get to car.
That there were not many accidents
is regarded as marvellous. \
Often long lines of automobiles
We're held up while freight trains
passed.
Now all this has been changed and
the dangerous days are no more.
The grade crossing over the Big
Four tracks has been eliminated by a
modern track elevation. The old loop
outside the grounds is giving way to
street car loop that will take the
people directly into the grounds and
ample turnstiles will permit entrance
so that there need be no crowding OF
pushing.
Separate ways will be made fol
autos so that there will be much
greater safety for the thousands who
will come in machines. These are
improvements that have cost thous
ands Of dollars and represent the con
fidence that the State Fair will grow
and develop in a manner that viii
more than justify the investment.
The work on the improvements j.
still in progress and it will require
rapid action in order to have every
! thing finished by the date set for tn,
opening. However, the state il
standing by to encourage haste, al
completion of the work means
much to d the safety and comfort O.

BELIEVES IN NEWSPAPER
.uI.r bo SPACE wiun4

No other Ohio State Fair has been
SO extensively and thoroughly adver-
,tised as this years, which will be held
in Columbus the last five days Of
August. Manager L. V. Waldorf has
employed practically every effective
means of keeping the people informed
of the fair and what it will have to
offer Recognizing it to be the great
est advertising medium, Mr.. Wal
born is using newspaper space as lib
orally as the appropriation will per-
NIT.
A unique method of spreading pub
licity has been the sending of auto
mobiles to cover cities, villages and
roadways within radius of rs miles
of the capital city. The men in
charge of the autos have been putting
up posters and distributing various
forms of advertising.

Elves and Fairies Appear
First elves, then different flowers
and spring madens with flowers in
dainty baskets entered the stage and
danced to the soft melody of the
piano guided by the talent of Miss
Beggs.
The queen of all the fairies and a
dainty little Cinderella slowly came
forth from the pumpkin door which.
when flung open, exhibited an artis-
tic interior in fiowered cretonne which
was paneled.
With the exit of the boys and girls in
the pageant, which included soldiers in
bright red uniforms, a great round of
applause voiced the appreciation of the
audience for Miss Lyons work with
the children. That the boys and girls
could be trained to such a point as that
to which Miss Lyon attained was re-
markable, considering the short time
the "story girl' has had at her dispos-
al for the training of the children for
the pageant.
Chautauqua Coming Back
During an intermission in which the
Hussars were engaged in changing
their costumes, Mr.. Whitney, superin-
tendent of the chautauqua here, made
it known publicly that the opinion of
the audience, as expressed Monday
evening, was that the chautauqua is to
come here again next year
Mr.. Whitney also announced the
numbers of the Y. NJ G.. A. lyeeum
course which is under the direction of
