1t became known today that a
movement has just been started to ad-

throughout this and all adjoining
counties both in Kentucky and Ohio.
1t is proposed to take several auto
mobiles loaded with Maysville and
Mason county merchants and part
of the Maysville Boys Band for sew
eral trins.
The proposition Is to carry adver-
tising matter of the fair along on the
trip and also to have several speak
ers to address the people in the arious
communities where stops will be
made
The trip will be much on the order
of the trip of Lexington merchants to

proposition has been presented, 1t has

to Ripley, Manchester and West Union
in Ohio, and the several county seat
towns In Kentucky within easy reach
of Maysville should not only create
interest in the big fair but also create
more cordial relation between the
business men of this city and the bus
mess men of close county seats. The
proposition is not to advertise Mays
vile merchants but to advertise the
Corn and Tobacco Fair and to create
a more cordial relationship between
Maysville and the other towns.
The movement has the endorsement
of the advertising committee of the
| fair and many local merchants.
