WORK BEGINS.
THE ELKS' COMMITTEES START ACTIVE
CARNIVAL WORK.
Albany Will Have a Great ^Show Thl. Fall.
Three UIk Features—Agricultural Fair,
Poultry Show Amusement Carnival.
Will Be All Visitors Could Expect.
B i |
Tho manner in which the several com
mittees which wore named Saturday
have entered upon their datios gives an
assurnneo that tho oarnivul part of Al
bany's Hay Day Pair and Elks' Carnival
this fall will be tho biggest thing of the
kind that South Georgia hns ever seen,
and wheu to this is added the great
poultry show of the Southwest Georgia
Poultry and Pot Stock Association we
will have a gala week of whloh many
cities three times Albany's size would
be proud to boast.
It is reasonably assured that the
agricultural features of Albany's fall
show this year will exoeed any that
have been made here sinoe the days of
the county fair whon the exhibits were
made at the fair grounde, the buildings
of whloh have long sinoe been burned
or torn away.
The premlnmB offered to tho farmers
this yonr are sufficiently large to Induce
many to try for the prizes, and there
will be more entries by several hundred
per oent. than we lmd last year. Hay
will be here in nbnnd.mce, bnt the other
products of tho farm will have promi
nence, and the greatest Interest will per
haps eonter about tho general exhibits
of farm products for the big onsh prize
offered for the best exhibit of farm pro.
duots mode by any farmer.
Another big feature of Albany’s fall
show this year will be the poultry show
of the Southwest Georgia Poultry and
Pet Stook Association. This bIiow will
be held In the Chautauqua Auditorium,
and will be one of the largest ever held
in Georgia. Over 8,000 entries are ex
pected from all the Southern states. The
prize list is now being cironlated
throughout the country and the gener
ous offers will attract many elegant
birds and mnoh flue pet stock.
As was stated In the Hbisald some
days ago. the amusement feature of the
onrnival was turned over to Albany
Lodge No. 718, B. P. O. Elks. There is
mnoh work conneoted with a carnival,
hat this work has been divided up
among seventeen committees of Elks,
all of whom have gone to work with
great zeal to make tho Elks' carnival a
snooess.
Almost every one of the committees
has taken np Its work, and It may be
said that the work Is well under way.
It is in the interest and the desire of
the Elks to give the biggest show ever
held in this part of the country and to
brine into Albany each crowds as have
never visited the oity before. The agri
cultural features, the poultry show, to
gether with the many free and pay
attractions that will make np the carni
val, will certainly appeal to the tastes
of many, and those whom we conld not
attract to the oity in any other way.
One of the most important parts of the
Elks' work la to advertise the Hay Day
Fair and Elks' Carnival, and this work
will be taken np at once. It is realised
that it is all important that the occasion
be largely advertised, and neither time
nor expense will be spared to have the
people of this seotion thoroughly nc
qnainted with the merits and attractions
of Albany's great fall show.
But there is work for every loyal A1 ■
hanian to do for the carnival. A great
local enthusiasm should be worked np
over the approqphfng occasion and it is
remarkable how qciokly this enthusiasm
will spread over the radius of many
miles from which Albany hopes to draw
bo many visitors to enjoy her gala week,
and whoso presence is necessary to make
it that snccess for which we all earnestly
wish.
