Certainly it will, there will be thous

the weather is favorable, the exhibit
will be more, the stock finer, and races
faster, while the special attraction will
be the best ever. Anyone who has
never been at the Big Butler Fair can
not understand what we are talking
about, and those who have been there
wonder how it can be larger and better,
but come and see, and by the way,
hadn't you better get a premium list
and look it over to see what you have
to place on competition at the fair.

union in tiio past. The special train
service covers all of Western Pennsyl

Ytrongest. Twenty-four trains, regular
nnd special, will be nsed to transport
the excursionists to the park. The de
mand for the reunion this year is
greater than ever before, and present

1 facilities afforded at the park for
1 amusement anil entertainment, th«
' excellent order which is maintained,
; aud the very low rates which are secur
ed, it is no wonder that so many
