...have long waiting lines during the day, and an hour standing in the sun is not the best way to enjoy the fair. Try G.M., G.E., Ford, IBM, or Johnson's Wax in the evening hours; even if the lines are no shorter, at least the wait is cooler...

...then simply placed a disk of filter paper inside a circular housing to make a new kind of fan. Spun by a motor, the rippling paper edges cast air through the rim by centrifugal force.
