Rrnces Greater Shows operating
on the midway, arrived from Dover
earlv Sunday morning and lmmeul-
ately began the task of unloading.
This work attracted a great many OF
the local citizens, the job OF unload
ing was under the capable direction
of a foreman and a gang of men that
90 about their duties without
hitch. A progressive feature notlceu
during the unloading, is the tact'
that a tractor is now being useo to
tow the heavy wagons, instead OF
horses used by circuses years ago.
DESPITE the fact that this sectlon
was visited by a downpour OF ram
nearly all day Saturday, the Bruce
Shows experienced no trouble set
ting on the grounds with their heavy
wagons. Great crowds followed the
showmen to the fair grounds to
watch the completion of the work.
The show tents and exhibits along
the midway were all in operation
Monday night: The grandstand on
Tuesday was free to everybody, ana
during the races was filled to ca
pacity. A check-up of the attendance
was not available until the close Oh
the days business according to Sec
retary Raughley but it was thought
by many of the officials, that all
previous opening day records would
be broken. They all seemed well sat
isfied with the attendance. Wednes-
DAYS card of racing attracted many
lovers of this sport. The free for all
races were scheduled, featuring
Golden Direct, Tyson Stables; and
Hal B and Charring Cross from the
Murphy Stables.
