the Nations and Miss Charlotte Ray
in her singing and acrobatic dancing
surrounded with a beauty chorus;
the big circus show with all it's living
freaks and curiosities; Baby Thelma,
the child who reads your inmost
thoughts; Eaton's Magic City, which
is one of the most wonderful mech
anisms ever seen; the Palace of IL
lusions with it's wonderment; the
Fun House; the Midget Mother and
her Midget Daughter; the smallest
and the largest dog ever seen; the
five big rides, the merry go round,
the ferris wheel, the caterpillar, the
merry mixup and the dangler all go
to make the Miller Brothers show
the largest and best ever seen here.
AS an added attraction on the first
day the Waterville Independents will
play the Waterville All Stars. On
the second day the team will meet a
fast team from Madison and on the
third and concluding day, the Halo
well nine. The Independents have a
fast club and it is assured that first
class ball will be supplied.
This together with the free vaude-
vile, the nightly fire works and the
dancing will give everyone who at
tends the Central Maine fair the time
of their lives.

played goods from all the manufac-
turing concerns in Waterville and
Winslow.
In the Coliseum will also be the
displays of arts and crafts, cookery
work done in the public schools of
the city, needlecraft and farm prod
uce, all so complete that they viii
require considerable time if they
are to be examined comprehensively
Very much among those present
are the concessionairies of all sorts
who are offering from half a hun
dred booths and pavilions every
thing from food to fun and all the
way back again. The omnipresent
hot dog is sold at about every eat
ing tent, but its place on the bill of
fare is shared with numerous other
similar articles. The candy snow,
which created so much of sensa-
ton 10 years ago, still holds it's
place, and the yearly crop of new
kinds of soda pop is also on hand,
Booths where the fairgoer may ring
EN-, shoot 'em or hook 'em are prom
inent and the things which one
may thus ring. shoot or hook range
from pocket TASKS to box of
matches. Various versions of the
old time African dodger are avail
able to test the arm Of pitchers and
other similar concessions were
drawing good crowd yesterday eve
ming.
The afternoon will be given over
largely to the racing but an added
feature Is the horse pulling which is
being given more prominence at the
fair this year than 1t ever has be-
fore. The pulling will take place in
front of the grandstand. Another at
traction will be the six free acts of
vaudeville which will keep the grand
stand crowd amused between the
heats of the racing.
Drew's Waterville band will give
a concert in the morning in the Col
iseum, will play during the races in
the afternoon and will give a con-
cert at the grandstand in the eve
ming on each day. Drew's band
has supplied the music at the fairs
for a number of years and has al
ways added greatly to the enjoy
ment.
During the evenings the midway
and the Coliseum will both be run
ming full swing and at the grand
stand there are to be gorgeous dis
plays of fire works. The exhibitions
are to be supplied by the American
Fireworks Co.
Another busy place which all will
probably visit is the poultry tent,
where the list of entries is especial
ly large and where can be seen ex-
hibits coming from all the leading
poultry farms of Maine and the rest
of New England

Horses and Shining
Carriages Missing
From Main Streets

The other day man who has long
been in business on Main street, re-
marked, after walking through the
business section of the city, on the
absence of driving horses and the
apparent monopoly that the auto has
for both pleasure and business pur-
poses.
And each year the truth of this
assertion is more and more borne
out. Last Saturday afternoon more
than 200 autos lined the sides of
Main street and there We're but two
horses, those between the shafts of
grocery teams. OF spanking pairs
and shiny carriages there were none.
The gentleman who was interested
in the matter felt quite sure that
there are not now in the city more
than five horses kept solely for
pleasure purposes.
The Lockwood mill maintains a
fine equipage for officials that al
ways causes pedestrians to stop and
look when 1t goes by. The other
driving horses are kept by citizens
who, besides using them for business
calls feel certain thrill in sitting
behind the spirited animals.
Horses for commercial purposes
are still in pretty general use al
though several concerns have aban-
doned them for the auto truck. The
American Express Co., still has hors-
es upon which it is a delight to
look. The Lockwood Co., was anoth-
er concern that kept beautiful ami
mails but these were sold a few
years ago and replaced with large
trucks. The Waterville Steam
Laundry, the other laundries of the
city, the grocery stores, the meat
packing houses and several truckers
also still rely largely on the horse
for their delivery work.
Among the few people In Water
vile who at present have horses
for driving purposes are James
Pray of Silver street, Charles Fisher
Of Oakland street, Martin Blaisdell
Of Silver street and G. w. Fletcher
of Silver street.

the city government and the police
department and he expressed his
gratitude for 1t.
In about two weeks meeting of
the service will be held at which
time plans will be laid for the winter
season. The main event of the win
ter will be a carnival and it is hoped
that it will be hel dat an earlier date
than was last winters so that the
weather will be more suitable. Sew
eral additions have been made 20 the
equipment of Community park and
considerable work has been done
there so that it will be all the more
adaptable to the enjoyment of win
ter sprts.

REV. J. ]. HULL
SPEAKER MEETING
ROTARY CLUB

Rev. j. J. Hull was a most interest
ing speaker at the regular meeting of
the Waterville Rotary Club at the
Elmwood Hotel yesterday noon. Mr..
Hull, who has lived in most parts of
the country, has for the last six years
been field secretary for the Sunday
School Association in South Dakota.
and his talk dealt largely with the
moral and religious situation in that
state.
He spoke highly of South Dakota,
declaring it to be the foremost state
in the Union for undeveloped potential
possibilities. Although there are a
few thousand less people there than
there are in Maine. the area Is twice
that of this State and as result the
people are widely scattered.
Mr.. Hull spoke at some length of
the marked increase in crime and i'm
morality over that of few years ago.
The population in the state peniten-
tiary in South Dakota, he said. has
doubled during the last five years. The
fact that the men in prison now are
much younger than in the past is wor-
thy of serious consideration, the
speaker thought.
He was of the opinion that South
Dakota is doing more to stem the tide
of youthful immortality than is any
other state. Recently there was enact
ed a religious training law by which
school children may, If they wish, be
absent an hour a week to receive re-
ligious instruction at the churches Of
their denominations. This not only
has led to an increased respect for
Christianity, but has swelled the at
tendance in the Sunday schools.
Mr. Hull said that much of the
blame for present conditions can be
laid to the modern home, which is
fast breaking down the ties of the
home. and he drew an interesting pic
ture between the old-fashioned home
in which he was brought up and the
home of today. In closing he urged
the service clubs to stand at all times
against the slump in morals and to do
their best to raise the standards.
A pleasing tenor solo was given by
Mr.. Knight of Clinton. AS next Mon
day is to be Labor Day, the club will
omit it's meeting.

Playground Season
Very Successful

The season at the Waterville sum-

end last week is looked upon as one
of singular success by those connect
ed with the Waterville Community
Service. The grounds were three in
number this year. the Lockwood, the
College avenue and the Community
Park, and each has been patronized
by more children than ever before In
the history of the service.
