Entertainment features are numer ous and varied and- each day will be given over to community, society and lse to stand good for $500 and indi viduals and firms risked credit for amounts ranging from $5 to $100 each. The guarantee was sufficient to es tablish a firm credit. The next step was to make doubly sure of being able to meet any emergency. This was guarded against by preparing a note for $1000, endorsed by a number of citizens, which was placed In the care of a bank. The note is still there. No money has been borrowed on it. The commit tee with its antipathy of debt took good care to keep the pay as you enter end of the business in operation.

Installation, booth building' and the expense of every de tail to make the show what it la today, easily runs Into, six figures. "If the Manufacturers' and Land Products exposition would only serve to call forcible attention to the Im perative need of an auditorium, coli seum or some such structure for the holding of great expositions, or to house large conventions, It will have served a wonderful purpose," said General Manager Buckley yesterday.

Now the final installments are being paid for space and these monies are going out to defray the cost of erect ing the temporary pavilion that sur rounds the armory and of meeting the cost of decorating. "In all the cost of the pavilion dec orations and incidental expenses will approximate about $17,000," said Mr. Bateham, "and I am not sure that we will not find it necessary to ask our guarantors for a cent. With $12,. 000 gate receipts the show will pay out handsomely and possibly we will have a neat little nest egg to start the show next year. "To secure the $12,000 would neces eitate 48,000 paid admissions, at 25 cents each. "This means an average of 16,00 persons per week, or a little better than 2000 per ay. "And if a $100,000 exposition can't attract 2000 people per day, I do not know what will, especially In view of all the special nights and the en tertainment leatures ana events we have scheduled.
