SOUTH FLORIDA FAIR
CLEARED s2l,362.42
SENDS CHECK FOR $40 TO ALL
EDITORS WHO HELPED BOOST
1T; FAIR NEXT YEAR


report OF rrie cUttth L 10
Gasparilla' association, through the ex-
ecutive commmittee to the directors,
showing a surplus of $21 ,362.42, this
years business was completed. Only
in a tentative way have plans been
discussed for next year, but it is GER
tain that the association will take up
plans actively next summer, with
something like seven months instead
of seven weeks for preparations.
Probably the most notable feature
about this years fair was the fact
that the decision to hold the fair this
year was made less than two months
ahead of the opening date. 1t was in
response to demand for the fair, felt
locally and throughout south Florida,
that the men who compose the fair as
ISOLATION decided to hold it. Papers
in Tampa and other Florida cities and
towns called for display of Florida's
resources, and victory celebration.
To undertake it, in the uncertain
conditions that followed the signing
of the armistice, and still prevail to
slight extent, was to incur personal
risk, for the fair association had no
funds left over from the two previous
fairs it had conducted, in 1916 and
1917. In fact, there was an outstand-
ing Indebtedness of approximately
$1,000, and the members of the asso-
citation were on notes for money loan
ed by local banks to meet obligations
two years ago. To provide against
lack of funds and loss this year, the
directors signed personal notes for a
total of $4,000. The fair association
is incorporated, but not fors profit.
Thus a curious situation arises, in that
eevry stakeholder is liable and may be
held for Indebtedness which the asso-
citation might incur, but can not ano
does not derive any return from the
money he paid in when the association
was organized. If there were fail
ure, the creditors of the association
could collect from the men who COM
pose the association; if there is sur
plus, as there is this year, it must be
used for fair purposes, as it will bt
next year.
At the final meeting of the directors
in discussing next year, it was decided
that South Florida counties would b.
asked to consider the 1920 fair Ger
tainty, and to make provision in thei
annual budgets in July, so that eac
may be represented in the excellen
way to which it is entitled, next Fet

ALISSANDRATOS YOUNGSTERS
STUDY INCOME TAX MATTER

Several men, among them f. Dan
nenmann, P. H. M. and, A. o. Brooks,
and The Leader man, were standing
on the corner by the Sponge Exchange
bank this morning when A. M. Lowe
came along with big, freshly painted
cardboard sign which he leaned up
against an electric light pole while he
went inside to get hammer and tacks
with which to fasten it, The sign had
not been placed more than thirty seer
onds before Mr.. Alissandratos's two
little boys came along, annexed the
sign, and walked on. No one had no.
ticed the two youngsters and when Mr.
Lowe returned every one present be-
gan looking for the sign which had
vanished like a ghost. Finally the
two boys were sighted over by the O.
P. England studio reading the sign
which they had translated into Greek
by running their fingers through the
wet paint. However, the information
given on the sign was to the effect
that the income tax man is at the
Sponge Exchange bank today for the
purpose of helping you to make GU
your report.
1t is suspected that Mr., Alissandra
tos has been talking so much abou
the big income tax he will enjoy pay
ing that the youngsters had becom
interested in this subject.
