The Brunswick Fair.
Under the auspices of the
Southeastern Fair Association of
Glynn, Camden and Wayne coun
ties, Georgia, there will be a mid
summer fair and carnival at
Brunswick, June 26th to 80th, in
clusive. Interested in this associ
ation are the representative and
professional men of the counties
named, including merchants,
bankers, newspaper men and va
rious professions, all of whom are
officered by a board consisting of
J. A. Butts, president; H. H.
Harvey, vice president for Glynn ;
Walter Wyatt, vice president for
Camben; Benjamin Mulliken,
vice president for Wayne; T.
Newman, general manager; F. M.
Aiken, treasurer; F, McC Brown,
secretary; Kennon Mott, H. H.
Raymond, W. E. Kay, E. Brob
ston, Phil S. Farmer, H. S. Mc
Crary, E. V. Douglas, M. Kaiser,
A. V. Wood and C. W. Demiug,
directors.
Last year they held tlieir first
annual fair in November, but this
year it was decided to give a fair
and carnival combined in the
midst of the summer season, when
thousands from interior and
nearby points could enjoy the de
lights of the seashore while par
ticipating in the multitudinous
entertainments offered by an up
to-date fair. They have spared
neither time nor money in arrang
ing attractions, and, in the lan
guage of the circus boomer,
changed to facts, they can say
that the coining Brunswick fair
will be the greatest ever given m
Southeast Georgia. The overwhelm
mg success of the first lias created
a great desire to make the second
a crowning feature of enthusiastic
work, aud every known attraction
has been secured that could be
found open for dates. Their thea
tre will be open nightly; the mid
way, enlaiged since last season,
will be there, while - the flotilla
and other parades, open-air, high
wire and tower performances will
be more numerous than before.
Important Announcement.
Every need for summer is ready
for you in this store. Everything
necessary to make you look com
fortable and feel comfortable.
And the best part of it all is the
little price. Summer goods were
sold closer to cost than we are
selling them today. Profits were
never narrower. The tendency of
the times is toward smaller and
smaller prices, and no store reali
zes the fact more than this store
does.
The stock we carry represents
money. It produces no interest
while lying on the shelves and
counters. The longer it stays in
the store the less it will bring
when it is sold. There is only one
thing to do—cut down the prices
so low that no man or woman can
stay away. That’s what has been
done. Here’s a chance to keep cool
and look stylish at the least possi
ble cost. Come and see this stock
anyhow. No need to buy, but the
