The Hagenbeck- Wallace Combin.
ed Greater Shows. advertised to ap.
p.ar in La Junta Saturday. July
18th. claims to be different from
other shows. and Judging from the
great variety of features and attrac.
tions advertised. it will have no
trouble tn convince its patrons that
it is different from other tent shows.
After due reflection. the oft-repeat-
ed sentiment. When you have seen
one circus. you have seen them all. -
appears very absurd. One might
as well say. When you have read
one magazine. YOU have read them
all" or When you have heard one
lecturer. you have heard them all, /"
A visit to the Carl Hagenbeck and
Great Wallace Shows will convince
the most skeptical that such senti-
mental talk is foolish. without foun-
dstion, and. upon investigation. il
resolves itself into an exaggerated
absurdity.

viii Camp Out.

From the number of inquiries that
are being received by the Board of
Trade officers it is apparent that the
Chautauqua is being talked about in
many places besides Rocky Ford and
that the out of town attendance will
be large.
The majority Of the letters re-
ceived request information as to the
accommodation Of visitors during
the ten days assembly. and it is
keeping Secretary Randel busy re-
plying that the Chautauqua man
agement will supply tents at noni-
NAL rental to all who wish to camp
in the beautiful grove. and there
will be many refreshment booths
and lunch counters upon the
grounds, where the wants of the
inner man may be cared for at any
time There is also ample hotel ac-
commodation within few blocks of
the grounds. for those who do not
wish to camp out.
The fact that the tents NAV be
had on the grounds is causing some
of our business men to plan for an
outing, that they could not have in
any other way this summer. They
will forsake their Rocky Ford homes
and have ten days. of camping out
without having to buy tent and
equipment necessary at other ii mes
