"Your charming 1 a • ryland provides ample reward for the trip any trav­eler can make, and proves that there is a real end of the rainbow,"

Wm. HOWARD TAFT

"I shall never for­get the beautiful picture your Ex­position offered."

THOS. R. MARSHALL

"This Exposition is one of the most beautiful and per­fect things archi­tecturally that has e v e r b e e n con­ceived."

FRANKLIN K. LANE

The Government Aviation S c h o o l is a short distance away and govern­ment aviators may be seen flying over the grounds daily.

"You have a most beautiful E x p o s i ­tion on a place made beautiful by nature and m a d e m o r e beautiful by art,— o n e of the most beautiful I have ever seen,—so beautiful that I wish to make an earnest plea that you will keep the E x p o s i t i o n going for another year. I hope not only that you wi11 keep the Exposition running for another year, but t h a t you will k e e p these build­ings of rare phenom­enal taste and beau­ty where they are."
