The big feature of this J program is the coronation of the queen, whose name has not been di- j vulged yet, the coronation to take place at 7:30 in the Valley Fair au- ditorium followed by the queen's ball. Manager Floore announced Satur-1 day that he was attempting to get in touch with Bill Williams, the Val- j j ley’s peanut pusher who now holds i the title of world's champion, to ar- range if possible for Williams to give a demonstration of his method of peanut pushing at the Fair rac- j ing track. Whether he will succeed he could not say, as Williams has declared he will not turn profession- | al. The Fair manager also announced ; that L. E. Snavely of Harlingen is to have one of the most unusual dis- plays at the Fair grounds, that is being a duplicate of the Eiffel tow- jer, covered with citrus fiuit. Work, on the display was started Saturday. Another feature of the Fair pro- gram. as announced, is a Missouri Pacific and Southern Pacific day, I and the Southern Pacific will he rep- resented by a number of officials, I and the famous Southern Pacific band. As these additional features were i being added to the program for the celebration, the task of rounding into shape all of the exhibits was being rushed through. This year the exhibits will be intact and com- pute by the openax* of the gates Tuesday norning at 9 o'clock, it was i predicted, and the exhibits will be kept in first-class shape through the last day, by means of an over- head cooling system which hsa been arranged for this part of the fair The community exhibits were be- ; ginning to take definite form in the large main exhibit building Satur- dav, giving an indication of what will be shown Tuesday when the gates open. Some of the staple*. J rorn, cotton, etc., w re being put in place, and the trimmings and color schemes on most of the community booths were beginning to loom up, showing the attractiveness of the whole. The perishables will be nut in place on most of them Monday, and Monday night, and the completed booths—21 in number, will be ready for the inspection of thousands Tuesday at the opening. In practically all of the exhibits there is a wealth of material never ] shown before at the fair grounds.! both in quality and quantity, and! sections of the Valley which have not exhibited in past years are repre- | sented this year, from Mission and Gifts That Last and at prices that are reasonable can be se- lected at Dorfman’s The above watch, and hundreds of others car- ried in stock.

Tents were going up Saturday as if by magic. The '.ot dog Hnd ham- burger vendors were beginning to call their wares to one another, a' to the hundreds of workmen on the Fair grounds.

W'iess had made a tour of Europe in that year and came back to find Beaumont in the midst of the fam- ous Spindle Top oil boom. He set out to reproduce the Threadneedle place of London, in the heart of what he believed was to be the metropolis of the Culf coast. The building, erected as a temporary structure, was put up with the prevision that it was to come down in three years, when he intended to erect a perma- nent structure. A clock, the largest in this section of Texas, was pur- chased and erected in a post. Wiess planned to hsiild a large bronze mon- ument of a woman threading a nee- dle. After Weiss' decth heirs sold the clock to a local jewelry store and it was removed across the street where it is still in use. ACT WILL RECEIVED Kwen Hail and his Gypsy Sweet- hearts received an enthusiastic hand in their first appearance here Fri- day at the Capitol theater where they are to remain through Satur- day night's performance. The act is composed of songs and dances end has some numbers that carry a de- cided kick. GET RID OF YOUR FAT Thousands of others have gotten rid of theirs by my simple and efficient method of fat reduction without starvation diet or burdensome exercise, often at a very rapid rate and WITHOUT PAYMENT until reduction has taken place. I am a licensed practicing physician and have made a careful study of the physiological requirements of the human body. This has enabled me to select such ingredients and in such proportion as in my opinion will produce not only a lose of weight without harm and an improvement in health, but with it an alleviation of all of the troublesome symptoms which frequcntlyaccompany and oltcn arc a direct result of overstoutness, such as sho'tness of breath on slight exertion, palpitation of the heart, etc., not to speak of the relief from the embarrassment of being too stout. Stout persons suffering from such diseases as Chronic Rheumatism, Gout, Eczema, Asthma and high blood pressure are greatly relieved by a reduction of their su{>erfluous fat. M y treatment will relieve that depressed, tired, sleepy feeling, giving you the renewed energy’ and vigor w hich come as a result of the los9of superfluous fat. If you are overstout do not postpone but sit down right now and 6end for my FREE TRIAL TREATMENT and my plan whereby I am to be PAID ONLY AFTER REDUCTION HAS TAKEN PLACE if you so desire. DR. R.

Stage Now Set For \ alley’s Greatest Mid-Winter Fair fSpecial to The Herald)

VALLEY FAIR GROUNDS. Nov. 24.—The stage is set, and the gates of the Valley Midwinter Fair will be thrown open Tuesday morning to the greatest show Valley people have ever seen.

One more day of feverish activity all over the fair grounds, putting the smallest details in shape, ar- ranging exhibits, carrying poultry and other livestock to the grounds, completing arrangemen.s for all of the entertainments and amusements, and the fair will be turned over to the people of the Valley, for five days, with an expected attendance during that time of close to 200,000.

The Fair grounds represented a small city Saturday, as hundreds of persons rushed to completion the

I work on exhibits and displays of all kinds, and the final round of prep- arations were completed.

Manager John T. Floore Saturday announced several new features for :he opening day’s program of the Valley Fair this year. People of the Valley will be able to see the Don Juan uniforms of the American Legion which created so much atten- tion in San Antonio during the Na- tional Legion convention. The Val- ley Legion men are to make up part

| of the District Legion convention parade on Tuesday. This parade will 'art in Harlingen, and proceed to

] the Fair grounds, starting at 10:30 i n the morning, and reaching the j Fair grounds at 11 o'clock, when the Legion program will e started there,

i Leading the parade will be State Commander Rufus J. Scott of the Le- gion, with the Brownsville Drum and Bugle corps following him, and the Valley Don Juan clad legionnaires following. Then will come all Le-

! gion men from the district, with more than a thousand expected to be present.

At the Fair grounds the Legion I men will assemble in the auditorium, and Commander Scott will deliver an address to them, after which a

business session will be held. At 1 o’clock a barbecue is to be served on

the Fair grounds for all the Legion men at the Fair.

The first day of racing will start j at 2 o'clock in the afternoon Mon-

The Edinburg Municipal band is

j to furnish music, and special stunts are to be given by delegations from that city, Mission, Rio Grande City, Roma and Sharyland.

Service clubs of the Valley are to aid in the program on the second day, with the McAllen band furnish- ing music. The big feature of this J program is the coronation of the queen, whose name has not been di- j vulged yet, the coronation to take place at 7:30 in the Valley Fair au- ditorium followed by the queen's ball.

Manager Floore announced Satur-1 day that he was attempting to get in touch with Bill Williams, the Val- j

j ley’s peanut pusher who now holds i ■ the title of world's champion, to ar-

range if possible for Williams to give a demonstration of his method of peanut pushing at the Fair rac-

j ing track. Whether he will succeed he could not say, as Williams has declared he will not turn profession-

| al. The Fair manager also announced

; that L. E. Snavely of Harlingen is to have one of the most unusual dis- plays at the Fair grounds, that is being a duplicate of the Eiffel tow-

jer, covered with citrus fiuit. Work, on the display was started Saturday.

Another feature of the Fair pro- gram. as announced, is a Missouri Pacific and Southern Pacific day, I and the Southern Pacific will he rep- resented by a number of officials,

I and the famous Southern Pacific band.

As these additional features were i being added to the program for the celebration, the task of rounding into shape all of the exhibits was

being rushed through. This year the exhibits will be intact and com-

pute by the openax* of the gates Tuesday norning at 9 o'clock, it was i

predicted, and the exhibits will be kept in first-class shape through the last day, by means of an over- head cooling system which hsa been arranged for this part of the fair

The community exhibits were be- ; ginning to take definite form in the large main exhibit building Satur- dav, giving an indication of what will be shown Tuesday when the gates open. Some of the staple*. J rorn, cotton, etc., w re being put in place, and the trimmings and color schemes on most of the community booths were beginning to loom up, showing the attractiveness of the whole. The perishables will be nut in place on most of them Monday, and Monday night, and the completed booths—21 in number, will be ready for the inspection of thousands Tuesday at the opening.

In practically all of the exhibits there is a wealth of material never ] shown before at the fair grounds.! both in quality and quantity, and! sections of the Valley which have not exhibited in past years are repre- | sented this year, from Mission and

‘Threadneedle’ Structure At Beaumont Burns

BEAUMONT, Tex., Novt 24.—

—The last dream of an old time res-

ident of Beaumont went up in smoke last week, when the “Threadneedle building, erected by Mark Weiss in 1900, was burned.

W'iess had made a tour of Europe in that year and came back to find Beaumont in the midst of the fam- ous Spindle Top oil boom. He set out to reproduce the Threadneedle place of London, in the heart of what he believed was to be the metropolis of the Culf coast. The building, erected as a temporary structure,

was put up with the prevision that it was to come down in three years, when he intended to erect a perma- nent structure. A clock, the largest in this section of Texas, was pur- chased and erected in a post. Wiess planned to hsiild a large bronze mon- ument of a woman threading a nee- dle.

After Weiss' decth heirs sold the clock to a local jewelry store and it was removed across the street where it is still in use.

ACT WILL RECEIVED

Kwen Hail and his Gypsy Sweet- hearts received an enthusiastic hand in their first appearance here Fri- day at the Capitol theater where they are to remain through Satur- day night's performance. The act is composed of songs and dances end has some numbers that carry a de- cided kick.

GET RID OF YOUR FAT Thousands of others have gotten rid of theirs by my simple and efficient method of fat reduction without starvation diet or burdensome exercise, often at a very rapid rate and WITHOUT PAYMENT until reduction has taken place.

I am a licensed practicing physician and have made a

careful study of the physiological requirements of the human

body. This has enabled me to select such ingredients and in

such proportion as in my opinion will produce not only a lose

of weight without harm and an improvement in health, but

with it an alleviation of all of the troublesome symptoms which frequcntlyaccompany and oltcn arc a direct result of

overstoutness, such as sho'tness of breath on slight exertion, palpitation of the heart, etc., not to speak of the relief from the embarrassment of being too stout. Stout persons suffering from such diseases as Chronic Rheumatism, Gout, Eczema, Asthma and high blood pressure are greatly relieved by a

reduction of their su{>erfluous fat. M y treatment will relieve that depressed, tired, sleepy feeling, giving you the

renewed energy’ and vigor w hich come as a result of the los9of superfluous fat. If you are overstout do not postpone but sit down right now and 6end for

my FREE TRIAL TREATMENT and my plan whereby I am to be PAID ONLY AFTER REDUCTION HAS TAKEN PLACE if you so desire.
