FEATURE OF BIG DAY

You can just tell. the patrons of Birminghams municipal park that we're going to have the biggest time ever," said Hugh. 'Costumes will be worn by the care-free and those ap. bearing at the park in fancy costumes will get free rides on the attractions, confetti battles galore will be staged, a $100 diamond ring will be given away to the most popular girl a big automobile show will be on all the while on the grounds, mammoth six reel picture will be shown as fea- ture attraction. In fact it will be a gala week for Birmingham in which she can turn loose and enjoy her self, forgetting for the moment the more serious side of life"
 Hugh is quite as enthusiastic over uses more big adjectives than cir he has gone 10 enormous expense in securing free acts to make the close one grand success. We have enjoyed the most prosperous season the resort ever had this despite unfavorab1e con ditions when other amusementsy were not thriving. and we want to take this means of giving the people of Bilming ham the time Of their lives. Our suc- cess is due to the fact that East Lake IS a municipal park, run for the cit' zens' benefit and they have felt an interest in it's success and have backed it ir with their patronage"
