The stars are Evelyn Chandler, Americas premier figure skater; Bruce Mapes, a former champion; petite Maribel Vinson, former national champion recently turned professional; and Duke and Noble, for 16 months stars of the famed ice show at the College Inn, Chicago. Visitors find free entertainment aplenty, too.

Fireworks on a true exposition scale are a nightly feature. Gardens Charm Throngs. When twilight comes there are nine chances out of ten that you'll find any honeymooning couple in the vast horticultural gardens that beautify the slopes down to the waters edge. From a pergola-dottewalk that winds 500 feet along the top of the hillside, the evening stroller looks down upon an enchanting vista of formal gardens representative of many lands; upon a waterfall that bubbles merrily over rock formations on its way to Join Lake Erie, and upon a reflecting pool and fountain. The fountain is electrically lighted, and the colors and lacy water formations constantly change in a symphony of loveliness. Here is a fine place to pick out a love seat and rest, contemplating the pleasant incidents of a day at the fair, waiting for the evening to turn into the darkness of night. For, once more entering upon the streets of the fair after darkness has set in, the visitor is greeted with one more magnificent surprise greater, probably, than any other the fair oilers. For the expositions boast that it is the best lighted fair in history is not an idle one. As night falls most of the throngs find their way to the carefree Midway area, where the side shows, cabarets, theaters and rides by the score are by that time operating to capacity.

As the night grows on, the gayest throngs find their way to the Streets of the World where in the spach of a few acres you can find scones and people from nations scattered the length and breadth of the earth. There is always merriment here, for the recreations of a score of countries are brought to America in the many night clubs and of the area. The Streets of th World provide the. charm and fun of the many foreign villages which were the hit of Chicagos Century of Progress exposition, without making it necessary for the visitor to walk to the far comers of the fair to see them.
