apparatus will bo explained by in
structors who will bo there for that
purpose.
In connection with the heat trans
mission apparatus, a high pressure,
four-stage compresser is used to
liquify gases. This machine will be
in operation on Engineer's night,
making liquid air and the proper
ties of that fluid, which has a tern'

Former Years.
A new and very atractive feature
will be introduced at the 1925' Far

will present a play in the afternoon
and again in the evening. The play
will be given in a large open air am
phitheater between Agricultural
Hall and the Home Economics build
ing. This will be one of the free
attractions and there will be no ad
mission charge for either the after
noon or evening performances.
The University Players will take
the place of tfie pageant which has
been a traditional feature at the
Fair. The reason given by the Fair
Board for omitting the pageant from
this year's program was that the ex
pense incurred for costumes ana
stage settings was too great. The
Players will probably present a, much
