SECTION I. While the Exposition Company will provide every,
possible protection for exhibits and for the property of
exhibitors, it will not be responsible in any case for loss by
fire, accident, vandalism, or theft, through which objects
placed upon exhibition may suffer, whatever may be the cause or
the amount of the damage.
SEC. II. Any object or article of a dangerous or detrimental
character, or that is incompatible with the object or decorum of
the exposition or the comfort or safety of the public, will be
refused admission to the grounds or removed from any building or
any part of the grounds upon the recommendation of the director
of exhibits, approved by the president.
SEC. III. Articles that are in any way dangerous or offensive,
also patent medicines, nostrums, and empirical preparations
whose ingredients are concealed, will not be admitted to the
exposition. The director of exhibits, with the approval of the
president, has the authority to order the removal of any article
he may consider dangerous, detrimental to, or incompatible with
the object or decorum of the exposition or the comfort and
safety of the public.
SEC. IV. The Louisiana Purchase Exposition Company will carry no
insurance on exhibits, but favorable terms will be secured by
the Exposition Company under which exhibitors may insure their
own goods in responsible companies.
ARTICLE XIV.
SECTION I. Advertisement by means of posters, prints, handbills,
etc., will not be permitted within the exposition grounds except
upon the recommendation of the proper authorities, approved by
the president of the Exposition Company, and then to a
restricted degree only.
SEC. II. Exhibitors' business cards and brief descriptive
circulars only may be conveniently placed within such exhibition
space for distribution; but the right is reserved to the chief
of the department, upon the approval of the director of
exhibits, to restrict or discontinue this privilege whenever it
is carried to excess or becomes an annoyance.
ARTICLE XV.
SECTION I. Exhibitors will be held responsible for the
cleanliness of their exhibits and the space surrounding same.
SEC. II. All exhibits must be in complete order each day at
least thirty minutes before the buildings are open to the
public. No janitor or other work of this character will be
permitted during the hours the buildings are open to the public.
In case of failure on the part of any exhibitor to observe these
rules, the chief of the department, with the approval of the
director of exhibits, may adopt such means to enforce the same
as circumstances may suggest.
