 THE FAIR.
 Sunday afternoon a steady stream of people passed through the gates to view the grounds, the stables and agricultural hall. Almost all the space on the midway was occupied by Sunday, but now it is completely filled and several booths have been put up even in the rear of the grand stand. Enough midway attractions have been secured so that all ages will find entertainment For the children there is the merry-go-round and the ferris wheel, for those a little older, the motordrome and side shows. Most of the horses were here Sunday, so that tour of the grounds was not complete without a journey to the stables. Not many of the agricultural exhibits were in the hall 1 Sunday. The greater part of the display arrived Monday and early | Tuesday.
