higher ideals.

The average housewife works
for less pay than the average ser

Usually the housegirl who receives
three or or four dollars a week has
more spending money than her
mistress. Os course the latter has
better credit, ordinarily; but to
use the credit means, as the house
wife well knows, bills at the end
of the month and grumblings from
the head of the house. The result
is that after ten years of domestic
ity resignation is bred to things as
they are. And the way they are
is rarely the way the woman imag
ined they would be in the heydey
of her bridehood. Alas, this world
is but a vale of of tears —and most
of the people are longing for things
they can’t have. Come to Arkan

The truck grower must be some

crops Tn th---' d-"-- of modern

about the present advancement

STATE FAIR GROUNDS
FINEST IN SOUTH
MAGNIFICENT PLANT WHICH
COST HALF A MILLION DOL
LARS, EQUIPPED IN MOD-
ERN STYLE.
EVERY CONVENIENCE AND
COMFORT FOR THE VISITORS
Great Exposition Palaces, Electric
Lights, Water Works, Sewer Sys
tem, Telephone and Telegraph Con
nections, and Connected With City
by Double Track Trolley Lines.
Except to those who have visited
the Arkansas State Fair heretofore,
It is not generally known that we
have the finest and best equipped
fair grounds in the South. The great
plant "embraces nearly o«ie hundred
acres, and with all improvements cost
half a million dollars. It is the prop
erty of the Oaklawh Jockey Club, was
built for a racing track and is said to
bo the finest in the United States.
Since the legislature confiscated this
property by the passage of the Amis
act, which killed horse racing in
this state, the owners have given the
use of this splendid plant to the peo
ple of the stale, free of cost, for the
use of the Stale Fair. This they have
clone for five years, notwithstanding
the fact that they have received no
legislative relief in return. The fair
grounds are one mile south of the
city of Hot Spring.-, and are reached
by a double-track trolley electric car
line. The cars rim into the grounds,
discharging ayd taking on passen
gers under'roof, so that rain or shine,
one is not subject to dicomfort. Dar
ing the fair, cars run on a three min
ute schedule, ami the crowds are
swiftly and safely handled without de
lays, and the rim to the city takes
but seven minutes.
The great exposition palace is 200
by 400 feet., two stories, with concrete
floor, toilets, water ’ountains, res
taurants and everything for the com
fort of the public. The great grand
stand on the second floor, facing the
mile track, will seat, three thousand
people. Agricultural palace is almost
as large, stands near the main palace,
and is connected by covered passage
ways oh both stories. South of these
are Electric Grove, where the main
amusement features are located, a
beautifully shaded lawn, glowing at
night witli thousands or Incandescent
lights. The grounds are beautifully
ornamented with shrubbery and flow
ers along the gravel walks, with
flowing fountains here and there. The
machinery, live stock and poultry de
partments comprise a large area. A
large poultry house contains pens for
thousands of fowls,- while there are
comfortable stalls for several thous
and head of horses, cattle and swine. |
The entire plant is equipped with ,
waterworks and sewer systems, elec
tric lights, telephone and telegraph
lines, so that communication can be
liad by wire or long distance phone
whenever desired right, from the
grounds. Better facilities for a great
fair could hardly be designed. No
matter what the character of exhibit,
whether of animal or other thing, It
can be safely provided tor, and shown
under the most fa-vorable conditions.
The fair is operated under a perfect
system, so that the safety of exhibits
while there, and their prompt a-nd
safe return is insured. If you have
never before visited the Arkansas
State Fair, don't miss it this fall, and
at the same time, have an opportu
nity to seo the world-fumeous health!
and pleasure resort, Hot Springs. I
one of the seven wonders of the I
world.
TAKE YOUR BOY TO THE FAIR. |
Take that boy of yours to rhe State I
Fair this year. Take that bright, in-I
telligent daughter, too. A great
State Fair is an educational institu-|
ti<m of more than ordinary import-!
anec. Il is such, not only to the
young, but io the old as well. Knowl
edge is more quickly obtained and I
more firmly grasped by observation I
than any other method. This fact is
recognized and utilized in all our edu- I
cational systems today. At tlie State .
Fair this fall, you may see the latest. I
discoveries in arts and science, in '
machinery and implements lor all ,
lines of industry, the hi-gliest grades
of live stock, the best. breeds of ■
fowls, and the highest achievements !
in human skill and ingenuity. It is
a great school, and aside from the en
tertainment and pleasure of the trip. ;
will be worth to yon double the ex-!
pense.
AN OBJECTIONABLE RULE NOW
ABOLISHED.
A rule was in force at the State
Fair last year, stipulating that in case
any exhibit had no competition, sec
ond money only should lie awarded.
A similar rule is in force at other
state fairs. The management of the
Arkansas State Fair this year abol
'ished that rule, believing it to be un
just to the exhibitor, and it will not
be in force this fall. 'The manage
ment take the view that any one’
bringing an animal or article to the
fair for exhibition, does so expecting
competition, and willing to take
chances in meeting it. If there is
no competition he is not responsible
for this, and should take first me
mlum.
