First of all, the trolley company worked overtime. There was no day off or parading for the men who collect the-fares and-handle the controllers. It was hustle all day long. From early morning until the last crowds left the parks for home, the cars were crowded. It was too hot to walk, and thousands upon thousands rode. It was bad enough to walk In the parade, but after that It was to the trolleys and cool spots. Of the many thousands handled by the Georgia 1 Railway and Electric Com. pany. 11,000 were carried to the morn ing and afternoon games at Ponce De Leon ball park. At the morning game the attendance was estimated at about 2,400, while at the afternoon battle about 8,500 saw the Crackers climb nearer the pennant.

The box office was besieged from the time It opened until after the show started. There were 1,400 at each performance and If there had been more room It is probable the figures would have been arger. Thousands who wanted none of the merry-go-rounds, toboggan slides, baseball games or shows, hied them selves to the quiet and shade of Grant Park. Picnic parties there were In large numbers and the weather made the day under the trees a delightful one. Conservative estimates of tho crowds at this popular resort show that between 9,000 and 10,000 people were there during the day. White- City also did a land-office business that kept the many attractions crowded with patrons. Thousands went there from Grant Park and re mained all day. The crowds at night were even larger than during the day. The management estimates that 10,000 pcqple enjoyed themselves at the park.
