OUTDOOR SHOWMEN GO

Attacks on Their Business.
Sunday Sends Message.

New York-In these days of uplift
movements the statement OF the newly
organized Association of the Outdoor
ShOwmen of the World that it's chief
purpose in life is to uplift and purify
the outdoor show business has attract
ed attention. The association Is q
unique aggregation of outdoor show
interests, embracing every variety OF
outdoor amusement enterprises, from
the big exposition and circus to the
fair, carnival and concession men, and
it's officers are carrying on wide cam
paign to secure membership in all
parts Of the world.
One of the outdoor shOwmen's an
nouncements, made at the organization
meeting and banquet at the Hotel AS
tor, was that of President Frank 2.
Spellman, who in explaining the scope
Of the organization said that Billy Sun
day had been invited to become men,
Der and to attend the banquet, as 1T
was recognized that "he is the greatest
Snowman Of us all" Billy Sunday in
acknowledging the letter Of introduc
ton said in characteristic fashion,
"You fellows could go some for God If
you would" =
1--WE have more practical objects, of
course, than the ethical uplift of the
outdoor show business said President
Spellman. 1--WE propose to exert our
influence to make certain that we get
a square deal in the various state leg
islatures. We will have legal repre-
sentatives in every city, and we will
correct other abuses that we believe
exist. We will endeayor to check un-
just attacks made on the outdoor show
business and to secure fair and equita-
BILE treatment. We believe the public
will be with us in this campaign"
