Rockville Fair today. An attractive
program, fine weather, and the fact
that it was the "big day" OF the
four-day exhibition induced the peo-
pie to turn out in large numbers,
and 1t is estimated that about
10000 men, women, and children
were on the grounds when the
crowd was at its height. Many
came from the District of Columbia,
and nearby Virginia and various
parts OF Maryland were literally
represented. The large outpouring
made certain the financial success
OF this years exhibition.
A parade of automobiles, trucks,
and smooth+wheel tractors was an
interesting feature of the morning.
Many of the latest types of motor
vehicles of various kinds and makes
were in line. Edgar Reed, of the
board of directors of the fair as
