Six of these electric turnatilea have
been purchased by the management of
the fair, and four will be installed at
the entrance to the grandstand and
enclosure. The machines are the
identical ones lined at the gate of the
St. Louis world' fair in 1904. The
appliance will do away with ticket
seller and ' gate keepers and
other employes at the entrance. It
will be necessary to have a man on
the inside to make change, a the
slot will not admit any other coin than
a half dollar. Men will also be needed
to watch the crowd to see that, no
lead slug or other counterfeit are-in
troduced into the slot.
The visitor nrtist have his fifty-cent
piece ready, but, aside from that 'he
will be put - to bo inconvenience.
He hands the coin to the man at the
gate, who drops it in the slot
Thia turns the stile and admits one
person. The stile - is immediately
locked until another coin is dropped
in. ' 1 :
Each turning of the stilo is re
corded by a machine which adds the
number of persons admitted. The
number is also recorded by electrical
connection in the office of the secre
tary, or at any other point on the
grounds. At midnight each day the
officials of the fair will know exactly
how many visitors have passed
through the gates during the day.
Formerly it was impossible to count
the big crowds accurately, and that
the attendance could only be estimat
ed. The new turnstile has been test
ed at the fair grounds at Salem and
has been found to work perfectly in
every detail.
The only difficulty will be the
failure of visitors to the fair to bring
the right change, but after the first
day or two, when fairgoers have be
come familiar with the new system,
no further trouble is expected.

Why go to Salem, Dallas or Fort-
land for an Edison Phonograph, or
buy from a mail order, house, when
you can buy the same machine from
your home merchant- at: the :same
price. When anyone tells you that
you can buy an Edison Phonograph
in Portland, San Francisco, Chicago
or any other town for less than you
have to pay in Independence put it
down at once as false.
The Edison Phonograph too fixes
the price and all merchants dealing
in Edison Phonographs can only sell
at that price.
Some houses advertise an Edison
outfit No. 5 or No. 7 for such and
such a price. Now as a matter of fact
the Edison Phonographs are not
numbered but go by name as Gem,
Standard, Home, etc.
We have a full line of Phonographs
and records and will be pleased to sell
you one for cash or on easy pay
