This will be a bit Of great sport
for the lovers of horses. -
Movers 2nd Regiment Band,
known as the best in New Hamp-
shire, will be on the grounds
throughout the fair and this means
a concert in itself worth the adj
mission fee. Lancaster always
prides itself on the quality of the
music and digs deep to gring New
ers and his players to the fair.
The vaudeville bill is a good one
and is headed by Daley Brothers,
balancing board artists, who are
re-engaged because of their big hit
a few year ago. They head great
program. Other fairs in the North
Country are emitting stage shows
but Lancaster is adding to its stage
attractions.

skating act and it should please
men, women and children. There
will be a trick pony, Damon, to
furnish pleasure to women and
children. OrTen and Co., trick cycl-
lists. have a motorcycle act that has
been featured in all the big vaude-
vile houses o fthe country. Peters
and Lebuff have an athletic act
that is different" and round out a
program of numbers that are head
liners on the vaudeville circuits.
Many of these acts have been en-
gagged through the B. F. Keith
agency which is a guarantee of
their class. The same booking
agency sends Marion Claire a
young lady who will sing with the
band.
OF course there will be the par
ade of pre- winning animals, an
auto show in a new building, com
petitive grange exhibits and the
ever interesting midway. 1t looks
like the best of times for the fair
at Lancaster.
