NIGHT FAIR AT KANKAKEE

'Originators of Night Fair Btill LeadBrilliant Electrical City. "The City of Joy and Light” was jthe term applied to the great night show at the Kankakee Interstate Fair by an enthusiastic visitor last year. The fair was one of the first in the ’United States to institute a night fair. Siat was twenty years ago. Though e task of making this proposition a success was tremendous, the problem has now been solved and the Kankakee Fair still leads all others in its splendid night show, which will be held September 2 to 6. , . The Midway. I The Kankakee Night Fair is as bright as day, but has the added enchantment produced by the glare of lights. Light and splendor seems to pour (from every direction and every angle tan the seething throng of merrymakers. Free Attractions. Just off the midway, on the large platform, there is the long list of circus acts which constitute an entire evening of entertainment. This night circus is more beautiful than ■the average tent show, because of jsuperior lighting devices. Besides the flregulanitage lighting, there Is a multitude es “spot” lights hidden from ithe sight of the audience, which set 'the acts in high relief. ‘ The acts are the best that a careful -land experienced management can procure. Many of the individual performers have a national reputation in lamusement circles. Several of the 'acts have been featured by Ringllngs’ land Barnum,’s circuses. If you wish to see one of the most expert, trained, skilled and daring aggregations of circus performers in America do not fail to attend at least one of the night Sessions of the Kankakee Interstate Fair, September 2 to 6, 1912.

REMINGTON.

’ C. L. S. C. at Fountain Park. Chautauqua Recognition Day at the park grounds was a success. The weather was altogether what was necessary for the formation of the procession of flower girls, alumni, readers and chorus, which conducted the graduate of 1912, Miss Alice Jones, to the Golden Gate opening to the graduation arches. The platform manager, Dr. McMurty, gave a most excellent address to the class. A chorus of 20 voices rendered the songs, the C. L. S. C. program closing with the famour Chautauqua salute. Rev. Goodacre followed with an able lecture along general lines of uplift and mental progress, speaking in the highest praise of the plan of “related reading.” At 5:30 p. m. chautauquans to the number of 36 gathered at one long table in Haskell’s dining pavilion and celebrated the first Chautauqua reunion ever held at Fountain Park. Graduates from Monticello, Goodland, and other places were present. One graduate present began the Work in ’B7. Several addresses were made during the course of the banquet and the roll called by entering date. By unanimous consent it was voted to again bold a reunion in 1913. Later an alumni association was organized which will cooperate with the Remington C. L. S. C. and the management of Fountain Park in assisting any readers in this part of the state to pass through the arches, A class is preparing now in Remington to graduate next August Chautauqua readers extend thanks to one and all who assited them on Recognition Day. .♦ Fnn Fest at the Park. Old Settlers’ Day was ended in a perfect maelstrom of fun, frolic and freaks. At seven p. m. the fest was on and noisy music from the hobo band, horns, megaphones and tin pans marked time for the Jolly line of march. The cottagers had been forming their lines all day. The Reds or Westsiders, under Captain Colie Merritt; the Blues, of Eastsiders, under Captain McDaniels. In couples the marchers filed past the hotel veranda,

the Reds first, led by their hobo band, and were remembered, and reviewed by a group of four judges. It is impossible to mention the individual costumes, there being about 400 in the line of march. The prize for most perfect costume in all details was awarded little Master Earl Kilgare, son of Mr. and Mrs. Kilgare, of Goodland, who was of the west side and received from President MeCollough’s hands a volumn of Mr. John Ade’s history of Newton county. Dressed 'as a policeman, the little fellow looked the part. The judges were Mrs. F. E. Babcock and Hon. E. P. Honan, of Rensselaer, and the Misses Barcus and Wahl, of the Fountain Park program. The Reds, 235 string, received from Director Smalley a yard-long black pennant, to quote Mr. Smalley, “of silk from India and decorated with gold from Mt. Giljboa.” The Blues numbered 138. As Uncle Sam arose and unfurled the national flag, maskers and beholders all joined in singing America and then the fest was over for 1912. There are great possibilities in such a program of fun and next year will see something better yet, to judge by predictions. ♦ Old Settlers’ Day at the Park. The bright sunshine of August 22, induced many of the older residents to spend the day at Fountain Park. A heavy rain prevailed most of the afternoon, and added to the disappointment of the large number who had come from a distance to hear Hon. Ralston, who failed to appear and caused the first and only failure of talent to appear on schedule time. It was the most representative assemblage of pioneers that Fountain Park has ever had. Among the oldest present were Aaron Lyon, of Newton county, born in 1832; John Culp, born 1836, Henry Randal, born 1839. Addresses were made by President McCollough, Mr. John Ade, A. L. Hartin, Of Monticello, E. P. Honan, of Rensselaer, Rev. Cantrell, of Fowler. Many remained for the fun fest that evening. ♦ ; Visitors Daring Last of Assembly. 1 * 4 Mrs. Rainier, of Brookston, with Dr. Rainier. Mrs. 0. P. Tabor, of Wabash, with Wm. Townsend and Hi Lamber.

POSITIVE PROOF.

Should Convince the Greatest Skeptic In Rensselaer. Because it’s the evidence of a Rensselaer citizen. Testimony easily investigated, The strongest endorsement of merit. The beat proof. Read it: Mrs. F. W. Rutherford, College Ave., Rensselaer, Ind., says: “I have no reason to alter my high opinion of Doan’s Kidney Pills which I publicly expressed in the fall of 1907. I have even greater confidence in this remdey than I did then, for I found it to be just as represented. I was badly in need of something that would relieve my suffering. My back ached most of the time and I felt languid and devoid of ambition. I had dizzy spells and headaches and there were many other symptoms of kidney trouble present. When I read that Doan’s Tiidney Pills were a good remedy for such complaints, I procured a box at Fendig’s Drug Store and they brought prompt relief. I am seldom without a supply of Doan’s Kidney Pills in the house and I find that a few doses now and then keep my kidneys in good working order. Other members of my family have taken Doan’s Kidney Pills and in each case the results have been of the best.” For sale by all dealers. Price 50 cents.
