WHEELER COUNTY EAGLE, ALAMO, GEORGIA
FAIR WILL CLOSE
FOREVER 0CT.31
Biggest Events of Whole
Chicago Exposition
Are Ahead.
Chicago.—“ The exposition closes
definitely nnd forever October 31. It
will not open next year.”
With that statement, made tn re
sponse to a question put by Mayor
Edward J. Kelly of Chicago, Lenox R.
Lohr, general manager of A Century
of Progress, spiked the rumors flying
about the country that the World’s
Fair was to be a permanent institu
tion.
After October 31 the magic fairy
land that has thrilled tens of millions
of sightseers from every corner of the
globe for two years will fade into
memory as miraculously as it sprang
up. Moving in to replace the gay
throngs whose laughter and carnival
spirit resounded over Chicago's lake
front will be crews of wreckers, going
methodically about their solemn bust
ness of demolishing the world’s great
* est show.
Plan New Spectacles.
Meanwhile the rush Is on. From the
south, east, west and north the mil
lions are coming for their last look at
the Fair. They have finally awakened
to the realization that never again
will they see anything like it. This,
coupled with the advent of the cool,
sunshiny fall weather for which Chi
cago is noted, is expected to make the
final weeks of the exposition record
breaking in attendance.
Despite the announcement of the
closing Oct. 31, none of the attractions
of the Fair—the fascinating scientific
and industrial exhibits, the gigantic
free shows, the fine music, the happy
Midway with its breathtaking rides
and unique shows, the unmatched
transportation exhibits —will be altered
before the end. Rather, the Fair has
plans under way for spectacular spe
cial events of a magnitude to dwarf
anything Fair-goers have yet seen.
Famed Scenes Become Memories.
But on Nov. 1 the axes will begin
to fall. Gone will be the quaint for
eign villages, with their charmingly
authentic reproductions of life and
scenes in fifteen lands scattered all
over the earth. The spires of pictur
esque Old Belgium, the towers of
sunny Italy, the winter loveliness of
the Black Forest, the white arches
and bright minarets of Tunis, the rich
romantic lore of Merrie England—all
these will leave Cldcago’s lake front,
to be seen again only after thousands
of miles of travel across the seas.
Gone will be the happy crowds
whose merriment filled the cases, the
- rides, the shows and even rippled
I with the spirit ol the Fair under the
turquoise banners of the majestic
। Avenue of Flags. Gone will be the
Jeweled setting of the lagoons, with
the thousands of lights uniting earth
and sky in a giant kaleidoscope of
mobile color.
Travel Costs Reduced.
Listed among the best-loved features
of the Fair, which will fade into the
past with the Fair, are Wings of a
Century, great, transportation pageant
with a cast of 200 actors and the
largest collection of ancient vehicles
ever assembled, which has already
played to an audience of more than
2,000,000; the House of Magic, where
a great scientific laboratory Is turned
inside out to make the mysteries of
test tubes do stunts for the entertain
ment of Fair-goers; the world’s largest
fountain, which pumps enough water
to supply a city of 1,000,000 people;
and the spectacular water carnival
and circus of the free lagoon theater.

A finger ring fits easily over the

Fair in Chicago, as Nurse Evelyn
Mann demonstrates here. Cool fall
weather and the announcement that
the exposition closes forever October
31 are drawing daily throngs.

S the Winners!
Prize Contest Ends ... Leaders Chosen from
Flood of Enthusiastic Letters on: “How the New
Low Electric Rates Benefit My Home.”
From 235 cities and towns in Georgia, as well as from farms and rural homes,
hundreds and hundreds of letters were entered in the contest which came to an
end at midnight, Friday, August 31.
The high quality of letters submitted, combined with the huge number to
be considered, made selection of prize winners an extremely arduous task. After
days and nights of study, the following were decided upon for the first three
prizes:
Mrs. Carl C. Hearn, Route 2, Chickamauga, First Prize —$100
Miss Ida E. Smith, 987 Barnett St., Atlanta, Second Prize —$50
Mrs. Julius T. Dudley, 1593 S. Lumpkin St., Athens, Third Prize—s2s
To the writers of tl ? many excellent letters entered in the contest, the Com'
pany offers its thanks and its sincere appreciation —as well as its hearty com'
pliments on the high q ality of the letters themselves. Many letters had to be
eliminated from epnside ation because they exceeded the maximum of 200 words.
From time to time in tl.: future, others of the many letters will be published, in
full or in part, in our advertising. Such letters as are used hereafter, if they have
won no previous prizes, will receive the two'dollar award originally offered for
each letter published.

Mrs. Hearn’s Prize-Winning Letter
Picture my home without electricity.
No electric pump to pump water for
cows, laundry, kitchen, bath and so
many things. Wood to bring in, oil
lamps, floors to sweep, ironing with flat
irons in a hot room. Churning by hand,
clothes to rub and boil, ice man tracking
in and half the time no ice, cooking and
canning over a hot stove. In fact there
were so many things to do I had to hire
help.
Now picture my home with elec
tricity. Electric pump, pumping water;
modem bath; washing machine, doing
the laundry; electric chum, churning;
electric refrigerator, freezing my des-

sert and keeping my food the right tem
perature. My oven meal cooking in my
electric stove.
What am I doing? Going over my
rugs with my vacuum cleaner, tuning
in the radio or watching my husband
cut the boys’ hair with his electric clip
pers. And what a relief my electric iron
is on ironing day.
You ask “But isn’t your electric bill
awful?” Not at all with the new electric
rates. I pay my bill with what I once
paid the ice man and wood man and
save what I paid the barber and hired
man.
