At noon there were no swine nor sheep on the grounds, but the entries in this section are expected early this afternoon, The midway is simply waiting for the crowds before going into aetion, and with booths which sell everything fit to eat and others which give away all kinds of prizes ranging from cho- colate bars to Kewpie Dolls fitted up as table lampg, it presents a gay ap- pearance, This is the biggest midway in the history of the fair and sets a mark that it will be difficult for com- ing fairs to surpass, Among the automobile exhibits are to be found the Chevrolet, Oldsmobile, McLaughlin and Oakland Cars, as well as the Fords. The new Olds cars be- ing particularly prominent, These 1923 automobile models are attracting the most favorable comment and many sales should be made at the fair grounds during the exhibition, With scores of men and women busi- ly engaged in making preparations for the scheduled events and get- ting their exhibits into order the Fair Grounds all day yesterday was one great scene of activity, With the creaking of the heavily loaded midway fixtures, the sound of sledges as they drove home tent stakes and-the raucous shoutings of foremen instructing their crews as they put up the hig and little tents, co-mingling with the ecacklings from the Poultry Building and the whinnyings from the stables, the one and only sound that tells the small hoy that the Big Fair is under way, rose on the September air.

OSHAWA, ONTARIO, TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 12, 1922 day and to-morrow were on hand early yesterday and were being given short work outs, many using the track despite the heavy going following the rain. The stalls and pens were all in condition to receive the entries in the various classes and once the live stock starts to arrive to-day there will be no trouble in taking care of them, The buildings were being put in- to shape for the various exhibits in women's work and the horticultural sections, and the manufacturers who were fortunate enough to secure room in the general building were engaged in placing their wares where they would most advantage- ously attract the eye of the publie. Wagon loads of show vegetables and flowers were coming into the park and gave promise of the fine display that will be made in those classes. Fine Fireworks Work was also being done in con- nection with the mammoth fire- works display that will he staged this evening in front of the grand stand and which will be the best fireworks program ever put on hy the South Ontario Agricultural So- ciety for the benefit of the patrons of the fair, The display staged during the recent firemen's conven- tion was the largest ever staged in Oshawa up to that date, but programme to-night calls for even more numbers than that one did. "The Great Empire which is taking up a great many of the concessions on the midway, ar- rived in Oshawa Sunday evening and yesterday a regular stream of traffic flowed from the siding of the Oshawa Railway Company on King Street, East to the Fair Grounds, where several concessions were being put into shape at once, this continuing all day.

And all because Gloria Swanson, Paramount star, had to leave the dainty design painted upon her low- er limbs for scenes in her new pic- ture, 'Her Gilded Cage," intact, when she appeared in society one evening, because more scenes were to be filmed next day requiring the same make-up. A -------------------- Miss Swanson plays the role of "Fleur d'Amour" a bizarre actress and cabaret dancer, in this new pie- ture, which will be seen at the Re- gent Theatre Thursday, Friday and Saturday, and thus the reason for the painted limbs, which are adorn- ed for the mnegligee scenes in 2 boudoir episode. The day on which this episode was filmed, director Sam Wood worked the company unusually late When Miss Swanson finally reached her dressing room she saw she had exactly eighteen minutes in which to change from her costume of the day to her evening gown, if she was to keep her engagement for a dinner party at the Hotel Ambassa- dor in Los Angeles. Removing the paint from her ankles entailed a half hour's work, and, besides, it | would have been practically impos- | sible to exactly reproduce the de- | sign on the following day, Gloria quickly decided to let the painted designs stay as they were, Showing through her silk stockings, they | made a most striking effect, | Her appearance in the Hotel Am- | bassador dining room created a | sensation. Since then the innova- tion is being widely copied and In- dications are that it will be dne of the smart modes for women of Tr re A NS ht SS------------------------------ GeO ARR DON'T DOUBT YOUR WIFE! Should Husband be Jealous of the Man His Wife Didn't Marry? How many men are big enough to admit they are wrong--especially to their wives! John Manning had a foolish quarrel with his wife because she played tennis, against his wish- es, with an ex-suitor. [He went home from the house party in anger. Then her heart melted. It was so silly of him to he jealous of Her- yert. Of course, Herbert loved her, put she had married John! And Herbert had time to play with her. John didn't. He was a self-made man. He played little himself, and couldn't understand that a wife, to be happy, must have some play. Because she played with others he doubted her. When a series of unfortunate circumstances placed her in an embarrassing . situation where she needed his sympathy, sup- port and trust--the things she. had a right to expect from her husband -he doubted her! He told her that any clever woman could make any man believe anything. Lies, he called the truths she gave him!
