Every indicaticn points to New Smyrna being the bsst town on the East Coast.

Wi'li modern improvements the town will grow rapidly and we have all the natufat Advantages to go with the improvements. They tell me Mayor Newell worked up some perspiration in digging his blft StudeYjaker car out of tte mud dawn in county en his recent trip down the coast. Fortunately (or unfortunately) there were several women In the party, so the mayor had to allow his feelings to escape through the pores ot his skin.

The fair to a city man is an entertainment to a farmer it is education.

Let us take a stroll through the fair grounds and linger a moment at a few of the points of greatest interest. We will first visit the mechanical department and hold communion with the world's greatest thinkers. You are now attending a congress of the mental giants in mechanical science of all ages. They are addressing you in tongues of iron and steel and in language mute and powerful tell an eloquent story of the world's progress. The inventive geniuses are the most valuable farm hands we have and they perform an enduring service to mankind.
