¥ of the United Press, ¥ dally by The Star Peblinh- THE CITY THAT HAS MADE GOOD INTENDED FOR “SKY PILOT”; HE LANDS IN, PAY STREAK | He. We have had time to look about a little, and to talk with visitors to our city. We have picked up in this way the views of many people from many parts of the country We were sure when we sat with 20,000 other people and watched the big flag 1 themse t as the broke through the clot and heard the cannons boom, that the A Y.-P. FE. was the bi st thing of the sort that ever happened And all day long we went about filled with this belief And then the rain came. It soaked its way through to our under garments, and we went home wet and bedraggl and not quite so sure that our fair was all that in the morning we thought it to be But yesterday the sun came out again, and we went back Last night we came away convinced, beyond the possibility of the elements to dispel, that Seattle's exposition is the most magnificent the world has ever known.. We talked with show men, the fellows down on the Pay Streak, whose business it is to amuse and entertain the public, They told us that never before had any amusement street at any exposition made such a record as Seattle made on its opening day. They told! us that the Seattle exposition was to be the most successful, | from a financial standpoint, of all the expositions ever held anywhere. They showed us telegrams to Eastern amusement men, advising that they bring attractions to Seattle just as quickly as steam could bring them, And these men know be not our fair is to be a success make ter than any others whether or It Is their business to know these things, such statements their professional reputations them It is great to know that we are part and parcel of a com and when they are ng within its munity that has built an exposition that will bri gates so many thousands of people as to utterly upset the cal ulations of these wise men of the amusement world, It great to know that the men who made the exposition what it is fa, are men who have lived among us for many years and who) have given freely of their time and talents and energies that the city of Seattle might send out to the world the message that we had fulfilled the promise contained in the words, FAIR THAT WILL BE READY!" But we have only just begun. As loyal citizens of the most progressive city in the world today, we must not lose interest now. It is up to us to keep everlastingly at it. Let us all become volunteer members of the A.-Y,-P, E publicity de- partment. Let us write to our friends and tell them of the/ glory of our fair, invite them to our homes, and see that they are sent away firm in the conviction that our city and our fair are worth coming thousands of miles to see. Let's change the slogan from “THE FAIR THAT WILL BE READY!" to “THE CITY THAT HAS MADE GOOD!" ‘The fact that the weather bureau; Kansas City wildoattere each got behind| “THE| E, W, MoCONNELL FINDS THAT | NE CAN DO BOME GOOD IN SHOW BUSINESS. | BY BONNIE WHEELER T was Intended for a minister but side stepped and landed up tn] the show business,” ald i.
