Many trees grew on the Fair grounds. Folks paused under the shade of a tree before venturing forth into more sunshine.

A man, dressed in plaid shirt and red hat, carried a watering can in the shade and used it to water the dirt. The weather was so dry that dirt would become dust merely by people walking. Damp dirt produced no dust.

A group of fake flamingos appeared as if they might walk of their own volition toward the shade.

A fake dragon was tied to a tree, which gave the appearance of a dragon intentionally hiding in the shade of a tree.

A huge chess game could be played under the shade of a huge tree. Here two boys moved pieces, while older lads kibitzed. White appeared to be down four pawns and a bishop, and was about to castle to the king side.
