AMUSEMEIIT FEATURES DF
STATE FI ARE HIGH CLASS
7
Airships Riding and Boating Devices and Band
Festival will Afford Fun and Frolic
“Canals of Venice” Is New Feature
A “Midway' Carnival" vaudeville
productions airship flights riding and
boating devices and a band festival
fairly generalizes the many and varied
amusement attractions at the State
Fair All attractions are high class
and the best that money can buy
The Great Patterson Shows com
prising sixteen separate shows and
two riding devices will be seen in the
Amusement Park The special fea-
ture of these shows will be the trained
animal show consisting of well-
trained elephants horses lions tigers
and dogs
The two riding devices will consist
of a Bteeple chase and a giant Ferris
wheel Specially noteworthy of all
the Patterson attractions will be two
free acts daily In one of these acts
elephants trained almost to the point
of human intelligence will entertain
the spectators In another a man will
descend a spiral tower sixty feet high
perched fearlessly upon a unicycle re-
sembling a bicycle cut in half
The carnival people will furnish a
high-class band of sixteen pieces
Boating
"Canals of Venice” operated with
a plant costing $12000 is on the list
of permanent attractions this year
The plant is under construction and
will be complete by the opening of
the fair
Patrons of the attraction will be
furnished a boat ride on a winding
canal which wends its way through
beautiful scenery representing places
of Interest in Venice the beautiful
Italian city
In addition to this there will be
boating at the usual place on Fair
Grounds Lake
Airship
Perhaps no amusement attraction
on the ground will attract more atten-
tion than the daily flights of the Stro-
bel Airship Few Oklahomans have
seen a successful airship flight not-
withstanding the fact that aviation
has progressed by rapid stages In the
last few years
The Strobel device is a dirigible air-
ship similar to those used in the Russo-Japanese
war Successful flights
were made with this machine last
year at the State Fair of Arkansas
the Tri-State Fair of Memphis Tenn
Spokane State Fair International
Exposition of San Antonio Texas
and the Fair of Cambridge N Y At
several state expositions the Strobel
Airship has made four successful an-
nual flights
Between flights the machine will
Eggs of the Plover
Plovers’ eggs will always be found
with their points to the center and
are invariubly four in number and if
disarranged the mother bird speedily
rearranges them They are among
the most difficult to find for their
color harmonizes wonderfully with
their surroundings'
I Warranted Heart Whole
"Break an hour’s promise in love!
He that will divide a minute into a
thousand parts and break but- a part
of a thousandth part of a minute in
the affairs of love it may be said of
him that Cupid hath clapped him o'
the shoulder but I’ll warrant him
heart whole” — Rosalind
'“For the Gardener
---n
A case for gardeners is as neat as
It is possible to make such a com-
pendium of tools In it are harbored
a pruning knife thorn scissors and
those for gathering flowers nosegay
wire a measure a note book and oth-
er convenient Hems
: Marriage in Germany
In Germany marriages by any for-
eign consular officer are strictly pro-
hibited — except where they are spe-
cial treaty stipulations
Cotton for the Chinese
The cotton cloth needed to clothe
the inhabitants of China is about eight
bllion cards Ths amount would car-
pet a pathway 60 feet wide from the
earth to the moon or cover one more
than 20 miles wide from New York
! to Chicago
'J Big Clay Pipe Factory
The largest clay pipe factory In the
world is in Appomattox Virginia
The clay found In that section f s spe-
cially adapted to this use i ’
f Letter of Gratitude
! The following letter of gratitude for
services rendered appears In a Lon-
don publication: “Mr and Mrs Blank
wish to express thanks to their friends
be lodged in a specially-constructed
aerodome on the grounds where a
competent official will lecture on the
mechanism of the apparatus '
Figure Eight ‘
The Figure Eight and Carousel are
too well known by past patrons of the
Fair to require any special mention
The American people apparently
never tire of a riding device a fact
which amusement capitalists have laid
hold of as a permanent stock in trade
This attraction is a permanent fea-
ture of the Fair and is used exten-
sively through the long summer
months by young and old
Vaudeville Specials
Dividing their time about equally
between performances in the Live-
stock Pavilion and in front of the
Grand Stand will be The Four Ishika-
wa Japanese Troupe The Zamora
Family Cordua and Maud appearing
In special vaudeville The perform-
ances in the Livestock Pavilion will
be during the progress of the First
Annual Horse Show at night
The Four Ishikawa Japanese
Troupe the world's greatest equilib-
rists will appear in original specialty
feats far above the average vaudeville
production and without question will
be a daily delight to State Fair goers
The costuming is oriental in the ex-
treme and especially rich in texture
and tone
The Zamora Family claci in the
finest costumes money can buy will
appear in a trapeze trio act This
family has attracted widespread at-
tention in both America and Europe
and is acknowledged as one of the
greatest aerial features in the world
by first-class theaters and open air
resorts from Maine to California
STROEBEL’ S AIRSHIP
Cordua and Maud known
“Craze of Europe” a clever team of
acrobatic artists will feature a physi-
cal strength act that is a thriller
Cordua balanced upon one arm on a
high pedestal with body neatly poised
holds in his teeth the weight of his
woman partner fearlessly perched
upon a bicycle and swinging clear of
the ground
Value of Confidence
The proverb nas it that a man's
character is no better than his creed
the dwarf is without a creed and longs
for none It is the pushing man who
boasts of a creed and convictions
along with it The man who has full
confidence in himself seldom comes
out at the short end of the horn in
the battle of lifj
Silk Workers of England
There were about 30000 persons em-
ployed in the silk industry of England
according to the latest returns and of
these over 20000 were women
Substitute for Wall Paper
Among the peculiar substitutes lor
wall paper is that used in one of the
New York art galleries It is nothing
but a huge rag carpet of neutral tone
that covers the entire wall space “I
had it woven especially for tills pur-
pose” said the owner “and my pic-
tures never had a better sotting
though I am bound to admit that the
carpet attracts as much attention as
the paintings”
The New Way
The practical politician who in a
cruder stage of his art kissed the ba-
bies and sbowered the women with in-
ane compliments now preserves more
of his self-respect while achieving
substantially equal results by telling
the fat men they are getting thin and
the lean men they are getting stout —
