FIREMEN'S CARNIVAL
INFULLSWING TONIGHT
A Parade At 7.3O O'clock Will
Formally Open Eight Nights
Of Merriment.

Beginning at z o'clock this even
ing, and continuing until midnight
Saturday, October 3rd, the annual
Fair and Carnival given by the Car
Isle Fire Company, of Milford, will
be in full swing. Activity has been
the order on the part of the firemen
all week, and they announce that all
plans are complete for what they
hope will be the best and most sue
cessful carnival ever given by them.
Added attractions for the amusement
OF the visitors to the carnival
grounds have been added to those Of
former years. AS usual a fine mer-
ry-go-rOund will prove an attrac-
tion for the children and groWn-ups
alike. A set of swings has been
brought here for the carnival this
year. This feature is a new one, and
should prove a fine addition to the
layout of the affair. Booths without
number will be filled with wares of
all kinds, and the visitors will have
the time of their lives winning these
prizes.
Some of the features of last years
carnival have been eliminated; but
better ones will take their place.
The ever popular blanket booth will
be in operation with the opening of
the carnival this evening until the
final light is out. The blankets this |
year are better than ever-and that |
is saying lot. The hungry will be
taken care of by the hospital booth, |
the Century Club booth and by "hot |
dog" booths scattered about the
Excellent music has been
for the occasion, so that
lovers of music will find entertain
ment by attending.
One of the pleasing features of the
carnival will be the free attraction
at the close of the carnival each ev-
ening. The Hellkvists, diving won
1ers, will entertain and thrill at that
time. These wonderful exhibitors
we're in Milford three years ago at
which time they demonstrated their
ability to entertain with beautiful
3wan-like dives. Towels, groceries,
canes, candies, kitchen sets, and
scores of other articles will fill
booths which will prove winners.
