This is the Way to Tell the People

... THERE is a show running in Birming-- ham and it costs 6d. to get in. The success of the event is amply proved by the fact that the first Saturday's entrance- takings more than paid for the whole 14 days cost of the show-- personnel, wages, property and effects!
