ROCKETS, bombs, floral displays and field pieces by the scorc—the State

Fair fireworks this year will be more lavishly beautiful than ever before. No expense has been spared to make this the most breath-taking, eye-compelling spec-tacle of the age. Different displays every night during Fair week.

And the big climax every night ~ the "Fall of Troy"—a history in fireworks without a peer. See the wooden horse enter the city. See the wily Greeks out-wit the Trojans. See the story of the battle told in never-to-be-forgotten tongues of fire.

Thousands of educational exhibits, enter-tainments galore, concerts, contests, free shows, horse races and auto races—and admission prices cut in half. 25c this year. Children under 10 free. Bring the whole family and spend the day.

BUICK (>1928 Buick for 1928 gets away in traffic like an arrow from a bow!

Watch the Buicks next time you drive downtown. See how easily they step out in front when the signal changes. And note how they give other cars the slip in the friendly rivalry of traffic.

Truly amazing performance! But amazing only in comparison with other cars. For in every phase of performance Buick for 1928 is equally adept—-in the ease with which it attains, and maintains,

the highest speeds—in the way it breasts the steepest hills—and in the way it ignores sand, deep mud and rough going.

Every day, in every city in the land, Buick for 1928 is demon-strating the superiority of the famous Buick Valve-in-Head engine—the engine that is vibra* tionless beyond belief.

You cannot say you know the full meaning of "performance" until you've driven a Buick for 1928. The nearest Buick dealer will gladly arrange a trial.
