"A DARB"
Says Fred Meyer of Press
Labor Day Issue

Many pleasing compliments were
handed us on the Labor Day issue OF
the Butler County Press, but it was
up to Fred Meyer, the genial manag-
ing director of the Palace theatre, to
tell us it was a "darb." Just exactly
what a "darb" means we are not sure
as Webster fails to elucidate here
but we are certain it is something
nice, and here is how he says it:
Palace Theatre
Hamilton, Ohio,
September 8, 1922.
Mr.. Manager, Butler County Press,
Market Street, City.
My Dear Mr.. Manager:
/ want to take my hat off to you
for the splendid edition of the Butler
County Press gotten out last Satur>
day. It's darb! A credit to you
and everybody who had anything to
do with it, The composition was
splendid, and the edition as a whole
about as interesting as anything |
have ever seen. AS somewhat of a
publicity man myself, | cannot resist
the temptation of extending my con-
gratulations and giving you the credit
which, in my opinion, you so justly
deserve.
With kindest personal regards, /
am
Very truly yours,
F. S. MEYER,
Managing Director.
Coming from so deep authority on
advertising and publicity matter,
such as we know Mr. Meyer to be,
his compliments are doubly appre-
ciated by all who in any manner had
anything to do with our Labor Day
effort and it's issuance, and to Mr..
Never we extend our sincere thanks.

of Fourmile. Though Jacks cottage
is built high up on stills the rush of
waters reached him and carried away
much of his outfit. The loss, how
ever, which Jack regrets most is the
rubber stamp of the l. A. T. S. E.
Union,- which includes the bill post
ers. The stamp is used on all post
ers and printing matter posted to
show that the work of posting is done
by union labor.
What makes Jack sore more than
anything else is that he is now post
ing the county for the Hamilton Fall
Festival, which is to be conducted
under the auspices of the Loyal Order
of Moose, beginning September 23rd.
1t will be impossible to get another
stamp in time to use on the festival

FALL FESTIVAL
September $3.50 Being Ar
ranged For By Moose
Lodge
Prince Nelson, Americas
Greatest High-Wire Ar
tist, Feature Attrac-
ton

Elaborate preparations are being
made for Hamilton's Annual Fall
Festival, which will be held Septem-
ber $3.50 inclusive. 1t will be con-
Quoted under the auspices of the
Loyal Order of Moose on the Moose
auditorium grounds. The entire pro-
ceeds of the festival will go to the
building fund of the contemplated
handsome new home of the Moose
lodge
The Hamilton Fall Festival as con-
Quoted annually by this popular lodge
needs no introduction to Hamilton
people. They have been great sue
cesses in the past. Moose lodge never
does things by halves. This big an
nual event has become we'll known
and has gained great reputation
throughout all southern Ohio.
The committee in charge say that
all indications point to the festival
this year outdoing an previous at
tempt. They report many conces-
sions already signed up and that
many new and novel attractions have
been secured.
The feature attraction will be
Prince Nelson, known as America s
greatest high-wire artist. The stunts
that Prince Nelson puts on the high
wire are of the hair-raising variety
One of the greatest acts he ever per,
formed was the walking over Niagara
Falls on a thin cable carrying a man
on his back. Prince Nelson will per
form nightly at the Hamilton Fall
Festival In addition there will be
several other high class free attrac-
tions seen each night.
The grounds will be brilliantly IL
Illuminated and there will be plenty of
music to enliven the affair Many
pretty booths will be erected where
everything can be secured to please
everyone. Each night 500 will be
given away in prizes.
The committee in charge this year
is composed of: Harry Schuster,
chairman; William Daddy BilD
Welsh, secretary; Chas. Weisong,
treasurer; George Wiseman, Henry
Stuckenberg, Chris Eichel, Jack
Scheaf. These men have all had
much experience in this kind of work
already, assuring the success of the
big annual affair.

Receive Endorsement O
Ohio Organized Labor

At a joint meeting of representa-
tives of the Ohio State Federation of
Labor, Brotherhood of Locomotive
Engineers, Order of Railway Con-
ductors, Brotherhood of Firemen and
Enginemen, and Brotherhood of Rail
way Trainmen held at the Southern
hotel, Columbus, last Monday, the
first real big step was taken for or
gonized labor entering the political
arena this fall.
The following candidates were in
dorsed:
For governor, A. V. Donahey
democrat; encouragement, Stephen
M. Young, democrat; justices of the
Ohio supreme court 1.-TWO to be elect
ed, Judge Robert H. Day, republi-
can; Judge Stanley Matthews, demo
crat; Judge I. D. Price, democrat.
The principle upon which the in
dorsements were made involved con-
sideration of two elements, record OF
the candidate and his response to
questionnaires sent by the Ohio State
Federation of Labor to all major
state candidates previous to the Aug
ust primary election Each of those
indorsed was considered as having
had favorable labor record and gave
answers to the questions which are
satisfactory to the labor leaders
Colonel Carmi A. Thompson, repub-
lican nominee for governor, and C. c.
Crabbe, nominee for encouragement
ignored the questionnaires and failed
to make any replies.

tinctly understood that the work is
being done by union labor only, and
he is ready to go to the mat with any
one who cares to dispute his word in
this.
At the last meeting of the Stage
Employees Union, Jack was elected
delegate to represent it at the Ohio
State Federation of Labor convention
at Canton, Ohio, the second week in
October Believe us, with Jack there
Hamilton will be well represented.

''HOME, SWEET HOME

Uniontown, Pa.-Ten thousand men

He said that the time had come when
physical changes would have to be made
to bring relief. The Police Depart
ment and traffic experts. he explained,
have exhausted every mechanical
means to improve conditions, and it
was his opinion that new streets
would have to be provided The Com
missioner suggested that colonnadc

be done on Sixth Avenue.
Mr.. Jacobs Explains His Scheme
"My scheme" said Mr.. Jacobs YES
tcrday in explaining his plan, lis a
compromise of the European arcade
street by solving difficult problem
with the least interference to existing
structures.
"The present roadway on Fifth Ave-
nue. is 55 feet wide, and each sidewalk
is 22 feet inches. The scheme which
submitted calls for cutting down each
sidewalk to 10 feet and increasing the
roadway between the two curbs to
about so feet. TO make up for this the
scheme calls for another sidewalk IS
feet above the lower one on each side
of the street
IAN architectural colonnade, COM
posed of stone or granite columns built
on the top of the curb, would support
the superimposed sidewalk, which
would be 10 feet wide. Five feet of this

Plan Allows Widening Of
Roadway Is Feet and
Reduces Traffic Inter-
ruptions to Allow Pc
dcstrians to Cross Over

Fifth Avenue at every street corner.
An automatic system Of signals would
be placed on the bridge crossing the
streets so that the east and west
traffic would see the signals plainly.
This upper sidewalk would be con-
nected with bridges across Fifth Ave
nue. at such places as Thirty fourth
Street and Forty Street and
where the traffic is congested, Or can
be placed at such stations where the
signal towers now exist. The signal
towers could be placed on top of these
bridges across Fifth Avenue, doing
awy with the present type of structure
or the present system can still be
maintained.
"1t is always difficult to present a
scheme for alleviating a bad state Of
affairs, which will not have its weak
point, but the advantages more than
outweigh the disadvantages. Over 80
per cent of the buildings, l think,
would be benefited by these
colonnades.
Store Keepers Should Be Pleased
"Shopkeepers say that the narrow
sidewalk is better for the shopkeeper
because the pedestrian keeps in closer
touch with the show window. Twenty
to twenty-five feet increase in the
width over the present roadway ought
t. relieve the automobile traffic con-
siderably. 1t means an increase of 40
per cent in the width of the roadway.
"To sum up, this scheme gives in
creased capacity in the roadway, two
narrow sidewalks each ten feet to
twelve feet wide on either side of the
street, which is far better than one
wide one from the shopkeepers' stand
point, the enhancement in value of
property by having a shop on a sec
ond story level as we'll as on the
first, and the relief to pedestrian traffic
in doing away with congestion by hav
ing the sidewalk on the upper level"
New-York tribune., 1922-01-22

sidewalk would cantilever into the
street, and the other five over the side
walk below. This upper sidewalk
would have the advantage of acting as
a marquise or shelter for shoppers in
rainy weather. The inside railing of
the upper sidewalk would be about five
feet from the building line and allow
space to connect with the second-story
show windows. The present scheme
has the advantage over the European
arcade. inasmuch as certain amount
OF light ard air would reach the lower
show window, as the inner line of the
promenade would be five feet from the
building line.
I'm some cases there woul he stair
case leading up t. the second story
show windows from this promenade.
and in other cases the sta 'rway would
lead down to the show window This,
of course, would depend upon the level
OF the second floor in the different
buildings. This ought to enhance the
value of Fifth avenue property as it
would make these SHOW windows one
above the other, easily accessible to
