SEES NEW FAIR Slreet of Villages Gets Big Play; Lights All New. Chicago.?More than 233.000 persona suw the new World's Fair here on Its first week end. A record opening day crowd of 154.003 Saturday, May 20, surpassed last year's opening day flg* ure by 34,083. The following day's crowd of 81,241 was greater by 28.557 than,the same day In 1033. President ltoosevelt, through the medium of a motion picture shown at several polntq on the grounds, officially opened the Exposition. Aa he closed an electric switch the new lights blazed forth for the first tlmp. Visitors were surprised to find the Fair complete, and fully up to the promises made that It would be new. Lights Trace $ky..,Rld?. Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt, tirst lady of the land. Inaugurated the outstanding new feature, the world's larg est fountnln. Like the President, she appeared In a motion picture. At a magical wave of her hand, the giant waterspouts rose from the north lagoon, livened by a play of colore*' light. Lighting, the most talked-of thing about the 1033 Fair, revealed wonders never approached on the 1034 opening night. Co-ordination of lighting and color were more in evidence. Under the lights the new Century of Progress purple-red, theme color of the new Ex position, presented a glowing beauty that was different. Buildings, grouped with respect ti color In light as well as color In paint, revealed a new harmony. The Sky Ride, almost lost to vision at night formerly, greeted visitors with all Its catenary system traced against the sky In electric light Bright red neon tubes outlined the observation platforms 028 feet above., the Fair. Farther south, from the rotunda of the Ford building, a pillar of blue light. 200 feet thick* and more than n mile high, pierced the clouds overhead. The lighting lond of this 000-feet-long building Is more than one-third the total load of the entire Fair of last year Foreign Villages Popular. New lights in the lagoon and a new "Aurora Borenlls" of searchlights at the north end of the grounds complementing that at the south end. completed the major changes in the night time Illumination. Mecca for the opening day throngs was the new Street of Villages I he "tour of the world In a slngl day offered by the fifteen reproductions of far-away lands In the new Fair proved to he an Idea that "clicked." Eleven of the {preign villages tire grouped together where the Midway was In 1033. Here are an Irish vll lage, with the atmosphere that was known by the ancient chieftains who met in Tarn Hall; the Spanish village, largest ever built for any Fair; Tunisia, the "Laud of the Bedouins"; the Italian village, with Its leaning tower and time-worn Roman ruibs. Free Entertainment. Visitors saw the Tower of London and watched Shakespeare's plays presented In a reproduction of Shakespeare's original Globe theater In the English village; saw ice-skating under the summer sun In the German Black Forest Village; saw Old North Church, Mount Vernon, and the home of Paul Revere In the American Colonial vllalge; relaxed In the luxury of a North African desert village In the Oasis; thrilled to the charm of native folk dances in the lovely Belgian village, and entered the gaiety of Montmnrtre In the Streets of Paris. Elsewhere on the grounds they found a Dutch village, a Mexican village, a Swiss village, and the Streets of Shanghai. Free entertainment projects caught big crowds. Among them were the concerts on the Swift bridge, the spectacular Hon and tiger show In the Standard Oil amphitheater, the circuses of the Lagoon theater, the seeming miracles performed In the Science theater and the many shows presented by exhibitors In the various exhibit buildings. Fair Better Host. Opening day throngs found that no exhibits remaining from last year were unchanged. Animation has been added everywhere. The Ford exposition," altogether new. Is a world of motion, showing the manufacture of virtually every part that goes Into a motor car. Armour and compan: and Wilson and company, packers, have done much the same with their exhibits so huve the Continent.. Baking company. Hiram Walker, the Brook Bill Dairy farm and others new to A Century of Progress Perhaps most lmportan* of all, visltors found the new Fair a better host. Eighty per cent of the toilets are free, transportation and restaurant prices are lower and there are more free resting places for the weary, most of them where free entertainment Is In progress.

SUNDAY DINNER || SUGGESTIONS By ANN PAGE THE vacation season for housewives begins when they decide to j make things as easy as possible for themselves by taking advantage of what the market affords in fruits, salad greens, vegetables, ready-to-eat meats, and packaged foods. Fruits and simple puddings can replace pies, cakes and elaborate desserts most of the time. Cold meats and salads follow well after a hot canned soup, and canned beans or spaghetti help out the luncheon or supper menu. When It Is necessary to cook, choose a relatively cool day and cook foods which can be served cold a second or third day. Cheese with a fruit or vegetable salad and bread or rolls makes a simple and well-balanced meal with little trouble. The Quaker Maid suggests the following menus: Low Cost Dinner Cold Meat Loaf Vegetable Salad : Sliced Tomatoes Bread and Butter Dewberries Cookies Tea or Coffee ^ Milk Medium Cost Dinner Beefsteak New Potat^e* Fresh corn Bread and Butter Sliced Oranges and Bananas Sponge Caks Coffee (hot or Iced) Milk Very Special Dinner or FOURTH OF JULY DINNER Cantaloupe Fried Chicken with Gravy Boiled Rice String Beans ' Tomato Salad Rolls and Butter ? Lemon lee Cake i Coffee (hot or iced) Milk / Speaker Gibson Dies of Stroke * *> Dillon, Juno 22.?J. 11, Gibson, speaker of the house of representatives in 1933 ami 1934, prominent attorney and outstanding citizen, died suddenly this morning at 10 o'clock. Death came at Clio, 15 miles west of Dillon, before medical assistance could be secured. Mr. and Mrs. Gibson left Dillon shortly after 9 o'clock this morning to attend the funeral of one of Mr. Gibson's boyhood friends in Marlboro county. A few rttiles out from Olio Mr. Gibson complained of feeling " unwell and decided to return home. His condition became alarming and medical assistance was sought at Clio, but when thy automobile reached Clio he was dead. Mr. Gibson was one of the outstanding lawyers in Kaatern Carolina and the major iportion. ,pf his life was devoted to the practice of his profession. He was one of the town's builders and took an active interest in its development. As a private citizen he took a keen interest in civic affairs, ibut did not enter public life until 1930 when he was elected to the general assembly. He was reelected in 1932 when he became speaker of the house and served through the 1933 and 1934 sessions. He was the senior member of the firm of Gibson and Muller, which has a large practice that covers a wide area but although he was devoted to the practice of law when he entered public life his public duty became his first .... ...? ? 1 " ? duty and the splendid record ho made as a Lawmaker while serving as a member of the general assembly takes a big place in the recent politi-' cal history of the state. Not only was Mr. Gibson a sue-1 cessful lawyer but he was a good business man and developed a 500 acre tract of land near Dillon into one of the most productive farms in the county. At one time in his career Mr. Gibson was a breeder of tine horses which he sold at fancy prices. One of the horses that hei developed here at Dillon was sold direct to a cousin of the Crown Prince of Denmark and shipped to that country. A man of graceful manners and pleasing personality ho was widely known and admired and his passing at the4age of 54 brings sorrow to legions of friends.

Julie 2J.?Nature study for 4dl club members is one of the attractive features of Camp Ixmg this summer, says Theo Vaughan, camp and recreation specialist in charge of Camp Long. "^uirTeT o?T)Tr<3s and trees in particular are being stressed by Homaine Smith, who has added the nature study work to his other regular duties in connection with the camp. Insect study was also offered clubsters from lteaufort and Jasper counties by W. 0. Nettles, extension entomologist, by invitation of county agents T. H. Seabrook and J. JE*. Graham. The object of nature study is to cultivate in the clubsters' ipowers of accurate observation and to help (bring science home to the youngsters. Since scientific agriculture is fundamentally based, on a knowledge of plants, animals, minerals, their parts, functions and interrelationships, a study of nature is, therefore, desirable for all rural young people, say those who are giving the instruction in nature study. Moreover, appreciation of tho beauties of nature and a more thorough understanding of the influences of natural forces also possess their 'cultural value. > The "Three Judges of Hell," who have been terrorizing Paris by sending explosive bombs through the mails, have not yet been ferreted out by the police. Tho twelfth bomb exploded on Thursday in a post office in a populous soction of Paris.
