Here Is the scene of the Great Central Sanitary Fair, which was held here In 1884
it
DADDY" OF THE CENTENNIAL
WAS SANITARY FAIR OF 1864
Philadelphia's First Plunge Inte Expositions Proved Great Suc
cess and Attracted Attention of Entire Natien ,
Even During War
Seldom or never is reference heard
new te the Great Central Sanitary Fair
of IfilM, though it wns, with the re
election of President Lincoln nnd the
steady ascendnncy of the Ilen forces
In the Held, among the impertnnt events
of that year at least se far as con
cerned Philadelphia. . Fer one of Its
secondary accomplishments was the
creation fit nn organization and a for
mula for the Centennial thirteen yenrs
later.
It was net, ns moderns may Incline
te suppose, nn exposition of teeth
brushes, rubber gloves, nnastrlngcnts
nnd antiseptics, or charts showing the
combined linvec wrought in a given
time by heuscflles and concealed
nhscesses at the roots of the teeth.
There was a solemnity about the Sani
tary Fair which such things, had they
been the vogue, would somehow have
served te travesty.
It was war-time, nnd the purpose
of thi fair was te raise money te build
hospitals for wounded 1'tilen soldiers,
homes for disabled I'nien soldiers and
ipilnine for I'nien soldiers lighting in
malarial areas. Se far ns the organ ergan
lr.lnu committees were concerned no
body's health wns under particular
se'leltude except these of these special
rlasses, and hygiene In genernl only se
fnr as it concerned war and the new
vaguely seen aftermath of war.
The etymology of ''sanitary" was!
from the Snnitnr.v Commission of the I
nrmy, then tilling functions nnnlogeus te I
these of the latter-day Red Cress. The I
work and the problems of the Sanitary
Commission were at this time greatest.
The fair was held In Tegan Square
during the month of June. A struc
ture t tint was part liall and part tent,
covered the entire squnrc (except a
few spaces that were spared te save
the trees). In n pafcrn never seen
ngnln, or very likely before. A semi
cylindrical corridor bisected the square
and led from either end Inte the "court
of flowers" at the cVnter, where new
is the fountain. Wmgs shot out te
the right and left, wherever possible,
without running Inte either of the
nrenan with tented tops. Turreted en
trances were at all the corners. In
side the halls and booths were hung
with the national colors, the flags of
all the faithful States and the names
of the reigning heroes. "Lincoln,"
"Grnnt," "8herman," "Meade" and
"Hancock."
Kverv one save only perhaps Cop
perheads', who, though the election wns
net yet decided, were Infrequently seen
outdoors deemed It his duty te go as
often and buy as much as oesslblc.
