Rogers—What is the next big exposition promotion for you? Al) of you remember “Jim Key", the educated horse. We wish to thank Joinmny J. Jones for adopting the idea for a “building block’’ front suggested in this column some time back. Victor 4 Levitt is the originator of the idea, we be eve. There is no mystery to why Brown & Dyer booked the Brockton, Mass., fair. Anything Johnny J. Jones gets behind generally goes over, Any carnival manager who puts his booking in the hands of a vaudeville agency is sure to have it mixed aR and always witbout fall, too. Carnivals should stay’ away from locations in or near parks, and circuses have found out they do not belong as opposition to fairs and exhibitions. But watthell, some people don't profit by experience of themselves and others. If Frank J. Haggerty decides to become a earnival manager this season you may expect him to be a good one. In speaking of carnival talent of the highest caliber it is well to look over the rosters of the Morris & Castle and Zeidman & Pollie carnivals, Some carnivals would come fn with more profit if they would stop carrying automobiles and living wagons around the country on railroad cars. William Glick and Ralph W. Sm‘th have cut out carrying living wagons on the Barnardi Greater Shows. Good for them. Watch M. J. Lapp bring the American Exposition Shows to the front rank. Frank 8. Reed doubles but not in brass. He is still a crackerjack press agent and he works all the time for the interest of the Rubin & Cherry Shows. 7 Harry Heller is greatly enlarging his Acme Amusement Company. Harry is a hard worker aud deserves to succeed, George L. Dobyns is going to spring the real surprise of the year in the way of a feature show, We know what it is but promised George L. not to tell. It will cause some carnival men to wonder what they have been doing all winter. Mrs. ©. A. Wortham is one of our big riding device operators, H. F. Maynes is going to let the public name bis new ride. The first one goes with Jobony J. Jones, as usual. FE. J. Kilpatrick, now of London, England, recently visited Copeniiagen and Berlin, A historical event: Lew Graham, W. C Fleming, Harry E. Tudor, C, W. Finney, Gene R. Milton, T. A. Wolfe and Matthew J. : all met in the New York office of The Bi il board one morning last fall. Pav! Parker is proving bimectf ia be a live wire in the direction of the . W. Parker amusement enterprises, Good 4 Paul; come to New York sometime. Fair-weather showmen are ike race horses— they cap not ‘go’ tp the mud, George F. Donovan recently postearded from Honolulu, W. L Last time thie writer saw him be was general superintendent for the Motion Picture Exposition at Los Angeles, Calif., last summer George F. is one of the few old-time talkera who can still talk and get them into a carnival show.
