ORIGIN OF COUNTRY FAIR
Its Establishment Can Be Clearly
Traced to an Ancient Religious
Custom.

The country fair owes its origin to
an ancient religious custom. In early
days, when Engismen observed saints
days, crowd of wOrShipers and pill
grimS would assemble within the pre-
cincts Of the church or abbey during
the festival Of popular saint. To
supply the wants of the throng tents
were pitched, and stalls for provisions
set up in the churchyard. Peddlers
and traders found many customers
among the worshipers aud In course
of time these pious assemblies became
marts Of trade, and were known as
"fairS."
Many odd customs associated with
fairs Illustrate the social life of other
days. The opening of fairs In many
towns was announced by hosting a
large glove In a conspicuous place. In
the event of a law forbiddng the hold
ing Of fair without royal permission,
the king would send his glove to the
town as a token Of his consent.
In Liverpool, a hand was exhibited
in front of the town hall ten days be-
fore and after each fair day, to signify
that no person coming to or going
from the fair might be arrested for
debt within the towns precincts.
At Paignton fair, Exeter, an I'M
mcnse plum pudding was drawn
through the town by four yoke Of oxen
and afterward distributed for the
crowd, It's ingredients were:" 400
pounds Of -four, ITO pounds of beef
suet, 1i0 pounds of rasins and 240
eggs. 1t was boiled In brewers cop.
per for three days and nights.

"BRINGING UP FATHER"

The Temple started the theatrical
season off well yesterday in the bright
and amusing musical comedy, Bring
ing Up Father at Home"
Those who attended expecting only
a bunch of good laughs not only heard
plenty of live fun but also some ex-
cellent music.
"Father" was dressed to fit his part
and acted it to perfection. He could
not have been more true to type if he
had been cut out of one of McManus'
cartoons. Mother was some fun. too;
and also surprised the crowd with a
song that would have made Melba sit
up and take notice. Percy Walling, a
scion of the New York four hundred,
who is on the stage for the fun of it
also has superb voice. In fact,
nearly the entire company was as
good bunch of trillsters as you are
likely to meet on any circuit.
The young ladies of the chorus are
pretty and graceful and their dane
ing was something to admire. The
Star force was largely represented
and only lack of coin prevents it
from partly filling up the bald-headed
row in Gainesville tonight.
The show was very good one all
the way thru and everybody who saw
it praises it. There were good crowds
out to see it, afternoon and evening,
and if it should come this way again
this season it could be sure of good
houses again.
The next road show at the Temple
will be "Mutt and jeff" Monday
night, Oct. IA.
