fishing pool in which the little
folks were much amused as they
threw their hooks in the pool and
caught all manner of balloons and
toys of various kinds. One held
the "prettiest woman in the
world" which, from its looks must
have been a picture of "She who
must be obeyed''. One with the
trough RIDER and the last was
the one with a beautiful girl re.

Then the selling of the boxes was
the main feature Of the show,
each one bringing a good price.
