      Gentlemen:

      On our first day‘s showing we thought we played

to capacity, but imagine our surprise upon the second day,

of standing the people up from the opening of the

show until the closing at night.

      We did one third more business the second day

than we did the first.

      We are more than pleased with the results and we

unhesitatingly recommend any exhibitor two days

as there will undoubtedly be more business on the second

day than there will be on the first.

      Very truly yours,

      (Signed) George C. Warner, Gen‘l Mgr.
