SUCCESS SMILED
ON COUNTY FAIR II
FREE AMUSEMENT FEATURES
QUALITY OF EXHIBITS
~ - BEST! EVER.

The officers of the Brown County
Fair association are to be congratu-
lated with last weeks county fair,
which, in spite of coming so soon after
New Ulm.s 60th anniversary celebra-
tion, was a success, not only from the
viewpoint Of the excellence of the ex-
hibits in all departments, but financial
ly as we'll. Secretary VIM. Linde-
mann did not have the exact figures
compiled at the time the Review went
to press, but from casual examination
he made the. statement that although
the attendance this year was cut
probably about 20 per cent, the fail
will come through with a small profit
at that. That the lowering aof the at.
tendance was not much greater il
quitefa surprise as everybody fgurec
that the county fair coming right or
the heels of the 60th anniversary cele
bration would suffer greatly in at
tendance. The good showing made i!
therefore a source of great encourage
ment to the county officials and to al
people who are interested in the Brown
county fair as one Of the best educa
tional institutions along agriculture
lines in this section of the state, and a!
county fair probably the best in tn,
state. u

FLYER In STUNT
ONCE TOO OFTEN
WILMER JACOBSON is DEAD

~ WHERE HE RECEIVED
~, !. EARLY SCHOOLING &

Wilmer Jacobson, a former Manka-
to boy, is dead, having fallen from q
swinging ladder attached to an air
plane. His willingness to TRY any
thing once" was the cause of his
death and that once, in the matter Of
stunt flying, was once too often.
Stories and pictures of dare devil
stunts that are the attraction at the
Minnesota State Fair this week, gave
him the hunch to try stunt flying. So
he presented himself to the owner at
the Lyndale Airport in Minneapolis
week ago last Sunday and insisted
that he knew how to do acrobatic
feats in the air. 81 ss.> i,}
Wanted To Make Big Money. !
He was somewhat nervous when he
went up and while doing stunts on 9
swinging ladder, his strength gave
way. Two thousand : people saw him
fall to his death. S3 3
He wanted to make big money and
that was why he tried the stunt say
his friends!
Wilmer jacobson was resident ol
|Mankato till 1918, when he. left in tht
spring to join the army. He attended
the public schools Of Mankato; leav
