The Fair of thb Nations for the benefit
of the Norwalk Hospital building fund.
opened 'last hight at the Amory. The
attendance was small, but every indica-
tion points to large gatherings the remain-
der of the week. Those who went to the
fair last night were enraptured with the
artistic decorations and the scene of beau-
ty the large drill room presented.
The Amory, whose bare brick walls
are so cheeriess upon ordinary occasions,
is transformed into a veritable paradise.
The rafters are draped with flags of all
‘2‘“ nationalize stars and stripes predomina-
ting, while streamers of all the hues of
the multi-colored rainbow are gracefully,
featooned from the center of the ceiling
tothe sides of the building. These dec-
orations vie with the rich colors of the
draperies of the booths. They are the
handiwork of George R. VanAlstyne.
The pleasing effect is heightened by a mel'
low light, shed by numerous arc lights
and gas jets suspended from the ceiling,
and incandescent lights in the booths, ten
in number. At the west end of the ball
is erected a platform, over which two
large flags are draped, the back, also, be-
ing draped with the stars and stripes.
The visitor to the fair is transported
from American soil to foreign lands al-
most ,immediateiy after commencing a
tour of the neatly arranged and attractive
booths that line the sides of the hall. Be-
ginning with the American booth, repre-
senting the National Capitol,wherc choice
, confections and dolls are on sale, the tour-
" ist wanders along until suddenly he finds
himself among the Turks, where a bevy
of pretty girls in native costume surround
him and beseech a chance to unveil his
future. [Now he is carried to Japan,
where he pays court to Japanese maidens
and admires their wares beneath the over-
hanging shade of native parasols and lan-
terns. Next fair Cuba and "Queen Lil"
attract him, and basking in the sunny
smiles of budding womanhood he can pur-
chase cigars or cigarettes. Ice-abound
Russia next claims his attention. Here
fair Russian maids dispense ice cream and
cake. His next stopping place is England.
where the climate grows warmer and the
flower girls are very much in evidence.
Sweden invites him, and he lingers long
to look at the native castumee and novel-
ties displayed. The fatherland, with its
fancy articles of interest, is next, and
swiftly journeying on he finds himself in
the land of Garabaldi, with its fruits and
jellies and some pretty Italian belles to
welcome him. “Home again," he sighs,
as be game upon the familiar Colonial
homestead, the hearthstone of the lament-
ed Washington, and the ladies in Colonial
costume reclining before the (1001'. ready
to sell delicate fancy work.
By this time the traveler is hungry. and
after refreshing himself at the supper
tables, a good laugh at the mysterious
woman from Pawtucket settles the meal,
and he isiready to scrape an acq naintancc
with the American Indian, doll his hat to
Uncle Sam, or dodge the bevy of pretty
girls of all nations from the various
booths, who cluster around him wiah a
sweet amile,as in a mellow,irrcstible voice
they ask. "Mister, won’t you give me a
chance i “The visitor then comes back to
the sense of the occasion and remembers
that all is not a drcam, but reality.
The various booths are made up of the
predominating colors and flags of the
countries they represent, and all are,
without exception, attractively arranged.
The two departures are the Ameri-
can. booth, representing a porch
of the National Capital, and the
Colonial booth, showing the front porch
of Washington's home. with door and
windows at the rear.
