FEATURED AT FAIR OPENING Excellent Exhibits at Twelfth Annual Fiesta Attract Large Crowd (Continuea from Page One) dance, was appreciated by those attending the big opening.

One of the largest crowds for several years, enjoyed dancing until the closing of the opening even- ing shortly after midnight. _This Afvernoon This afternoon the main event on the program was the baby show, which brought out many mothers, with their infants and children, up to two years old, in attendance and smiling at the judges who were to award the prizes for the most healthful entries. This Evening At 8 o'clock this evening the Juneau City Band will again begin the program with an hour’s con- cert. Madame Helene Orloff, dramatic soprano, who won much favorable comment in musical circles by her previous Juneau performances, 1s the main attraction at the Fair this evening. She will give a concert of well selected favorites beginning at 9 o'clock. Following ‘ne entertainment by Madame Orloff will be a concert by Bokach's Russian Balalaiki Or- chestra, which was so enjoyed last evening, and the evening program will be concluded by dancing, under the auspices of the American Le- gion, to the Revelers’ Orchestra.
