The Hennies Bros Exposition, billed as the world's largest traveling amusement show, opened last Tuesday night under the Central Trades and Labor Council at Oak Park Grove in Rockdale. It runs through Sunday with matinees at noon on Saturday and Sunday. The event features wild animal displays, thrill divers, a midget revue led by Tiny Dot Wenzel, and a mile-long midway of rides, traveling here on sixty railroad cars.
