Marcellus Miller, local radio expert and electrical worker, has been awarded the contract by the fair board, under the chairmanship of Walter Gard, to install the public address system. Deeming that one emergency call was worth the expense of installing the "P. A.’’ system, the fair board, in a meeting nearly three weeks ago. decided upon its installation. While nly calls of importance wi'l be broadcast over the loud speakers during the fair, words of instruction and directions will also be given over the system Speakers installed around the courthouse and at various advantageous locati-.ns throughout the fair prefer are expected to aid in the enforcement of law, as well as carry important messages of the fair. bast year it will be recalled, nearly a score of children, lost in the huge crowds, were returned to anxious parents by means of the puh'ic address system.

While, due to a difference in appropriations made for this (branch of the fair, nothing as elaborate as the gigantic speakers, perched atop the courthouse during the Centennial, is planned for this year, ample volume and carrying power is afforded the speakers to carry a considerable distance. Mr. Miller stated that the message cf the speakers at the courthouse will easily carry north to Monroe street and south to Jefferson. above the noise and confusion of the fair.

A positive pollen grain, for example, would be repelled by lite positively charged screen. Nega-| live pollen grains would be repell-' I ed by the negative screen. Current is supplied by a small 10-cent battery of low amperage. We want this mask to the to hayfever sufferers what insulin is
