Fake "Jossesn for Travellers.

Canton and Annoy supply travellers
and curio dealers with quantities Of
hideous idols known in the trade as
"josses." They are fakes pure and
simple, having no relation to any orr
entail religion. Ingenious designers
have produced a great variety of hob
gobllns-such, for. example, as the
hunger god" with the face of IT,
ger and feroclous fangs.
Most Of them are Of clay, turned
out from wooden or metal mOlds,
dipped In molten glass and allowed to
cool. A fairly expert Chinese work
man can make 100 in a day at cost
of cents apiece. The European or
American tourist pays So.
Real josses may be worth a lot Of
money, especially II carved out Of

patrons of the Fair came to see the
horse races, and the Society must con-
tnue to provide good horse races in
the future, as is well illustrated by the
words OF the inimitable poet Daniel L.
Cady in his poem "The Middlebury
Fair"
The Midway was the mecca of all
amusement at the Fair, and this de-
partment has grown so fast in recent
years that its size has become alarm
ing, The public demand a good Mid
way at the Fair and the General Su.
perintendent is entitled to considerable
credit for the revenue he produced
from the Midway. and the way he
handled this difficulty.
The Evening Carnival was a new
feature of the Fair and was to some ex-
tent an experiment. 1t was a decided
success notwithstanding the inclement
weather that appeared on schedule
nearly every evening This feature of
the Fair can be imprved in future
years and be made a good source of
revenue, and at the same time provide
good, clean and wholesome entertain
ment for the public
So much for the records of the past
and Just a few suggestions from the
Secretary, who does not pose as a cri-
tic, but simply wants to give his OBJ
serVations for what they are worth.
1t is plainly evident that the ex-
penses of promoting large, success
full fair are sure to increase in the flu
ture; the exhibits in all departments
must be held up to certain standard,
if possible; and the attendance at our
fairs, especially on the first and last
days must be increased.
In order to meet the increased ex-
penses two suggestions are manifest,
new and improved methods of admins
tration to avoid waste, duplication and
promote economy III labor and capital;
and the increased attendance on GER
tain DAYS of the Fair.
The Board of Managers have had
these plans in mind for some time and
no doubt they will be put in operation
at TIE first opportunity The Fair has
simply outgrown the methods oi adj
ministration in many respects and a
new system can be adopted at very
little expense to the Society, and much
economy viii ventually result from The
change,
The exhibits in some of the depart
ments can be increased and improved
by revision of the Premium List at a
small increase in the appropriations.
And the attendance can be increased
on certain days by a change in our pro
gram for the Fair, and by advertising
special features on those days, This is
essential to promote more revenue,
and also relieve congestion and avoid
accident on other days of the Fair.
1t is we'll to be optimistic and make
our plans for the future accordingly.
If we can only select a week with
good weather for 1921, we will hang
up a record for the Society that will
be our goal to strive for for years to
come, We must have faith but the
greatest danger of all for a Society such
as ours is to be too we'll satisfied, to
glory too much in the past and to be
blinded by pride of achievement
Faith without works is insufficient"
Reputation we have, harmony and
exists in our organization,
let's make good and wholesome plans
for 1921.
Respectfully submitted,

Secretary

BETTER THAN CALOMEL
Thousands Have Discovered
DR.. Edwards Olive Tablets
are a Harmless Substitute

DR.. Edwards Olive Tablets-the sub
sttute for calomel-are mild but sure
laxative, and their effect on the liver is
almost instantaneous. These little olive
colored tablets are tn result of DR..
Edwards determination not to treat
liver and bowel complaints with calomel.
The pleasant little tablets do the
good that calomel does. but have no
bad after effects. They don't injure the
teeth like strong liquids or calomel.
They take hold of the trouble and
quickly correct it. Why cure the liver
at the expense of the teeth? Calomel
sometimes plays havoc with the gums.
So do strong liquids. It is best not to
take calomel. Let Dr.. Edwards Olive
Tablets take its place.
Headaches, dizziness" and that lazy
feeling come from constipation and a
disordered liver. Take DR. Edwards
Olive Tablets when you feel log" and
heavy" They clear" clouded brain
