INTER STATE FAIR
CLOSES SATURDAY,
$4,000 ATTENDED
Officials Regard This Years
Event as One of Most
Successful.

The closing of the gates at Spring
brook park Saturday night. marked
the final of the most successful fairs
ever held in st. Joseph county. Ac-
cording TO the fair officers. $4,000
persons paid admission TO the fair
during the week. This record break
ing attendance was due partly to
ideal weather and partly due to the
fact that the fair on the whole was
the best one conducted here in years.
As il takes a small army of am
bilious citizens TO make a fair a sue
cess, the record of the past week is
considered a comment upon the in
tegrity and ability OF the fair man
agement as well as upon the cooper
alive spirit shown by many thousand
other citizens who had a share in the
making of the fair
Local Enterprise
This fair, unlike some Of former
ones, was almost entirely a local
enterprise. Secretary George Y.
Helper is a local farmer and his
associates are likewise affiliated with
local interests. Local exhibits pre-
dominated in both the agricultural
and industrial exhibits
Much comment was heard during
the week regarding the Wyman fash
ion show. which was a feature of the
industrial exhibits. Many persons
thought that the decorations and
lighting effects used in the style show
had been worked out BY either a
New York or Chicago art director
As a matter Of fact, the entire work
Of putting on the exhibit was done
/ by local talent, with the exception
of five of the models. who came
directly from Marigold gardens, Chi
cago.
Boy Scouts Help
The idea originated with d. H
Eldridge. advertising manager of
Wyman's store, his brother. Stuart
Eldridge, designed the band box"
and the lighting effects. Miss Ruth
Cham berlain directed the making Of
the draperies, and the four buyers,
Mrs. Charles Jackson, Mrs Mary De-
Noss, Mrs. John 1. Freeman and Mrs.
Bernice Rhinehart selected the
gowns and assisted in the work of
preparing the various costumes for
exhibition.
A spirit of harmony was evident
throughout the week in the fair en-
/ terprises. The boy scouts worked
every day OF the fair in the capacity
] Of runners and ushers and also did
police duty. Studebakers band do
/ mated its services for Thursday. the
/ biggest day Of the fair. and gave a
/ program that won frequent applause
/ from the large audiences.
