appreciation of your great interest in the Fair and convey to your readers the following:

“Welcome to the Fair. The New York World’s Fair is not only a place of unparallelled entertainment, but it is important enough to alter the course of World History for the better. In the circumstances the attendance and approval of the greatest possible number of visitors will imprint the lesson of the Fair upon human consciousness and guarantee its success as a force in building the World of tomorrow.
