people were on a holiday yesterday
afternoon and took advantage of
Ashland Day to be at the fair. It
is estimated by authorities of the
fair that^yesterday saw the biggest
attendance of the year. One third of
the grandstand was filled with Ash­
land people and the tickets for ad

necessary to close the gates before
all the crowd could be packed Into
the arena.
Program F o r Day Good
According to reports brought back
by the visitors everything was as
good or better than the general run
of county fairs. The program was
good. Delays, which usually threaten
the good dispositions of the atten­
