North Adams has again demonstra-
ted that it is one of the most public
spirited towns in the country. 1t car
ried out an old home week celebration
last week that would have been a
credit to city of one nun
dred thousand people. Every de
tail of the affair was a sue
cess and the city entertained more
visitors during the week than ever be
fore. Every visitor, too, was made
to feel that he was welcome and urg
ed to stay as long as possible. When
a town has the spirit that North Ad
ans shows, it is bound to prosper
The Tunnel city has had some nard
blows but has recovered from all Of
them and is bound to benefit from the
earnest enthusiasm of its own people.

And now the critics are protesting,
not without some show OF reason, that
Peary a United States naval officer,
paid by the people of the United
States, on a leave of absence under
salary, sold for money to a newspa
per the right of exclusive publication
of the story of his dash to the Pole
whereas that story belonged to all the
people of the country and of the
world.-St. Adams Messenger
Peary has put the best part of his
life and all the money he could raise
into Arctic exploration. In the name
of fairness and decency, hasn't he the
right to sell his story where it viii
bring him in the most money in order
to help him clear up his heavy debts
and to lay by something for old age
If he furnished ais story free to all
at the same time he could get nothing
for it, while by giving prior or ex
elusive rights he could get good pay
for it. While he is a United States
naval officer, his leave of absence does
no carry pay to warrant the tremen-
dous expense and strain he has been
under.

LADIES' BAND is TO PLAY.
Michigan State Fair Engages Two Big
Aggregations to Furnish Music at
the Coming Far-Both Bodies
Composed of Artists.

Visitors at the Michigan State Fair,
which opens this year on September
2, will have the pleasure of enjoying
two Of the largest and most celebrat-
ed bands in the United States. Kopp's
aggregation, from Cincinnati, with
thirty-fve pieces and the Navassar
Ladies' band, with forty pieces, have
been engaged for the entire exhibit
ton.
Those two musical organizations
have regulations all over the country
for playing thrilling music with eli
makes that bring audiences to their
feet with bound. The Navassar La
dies band will come to Detroit direct
from the Toronto exhibition, where
they have been engaged to play dur
ing the first week of that fair.
Each Of these organizations is filed
with artists of international fame. The
fair management engages these two
bands for their educational value as
well as for entertainment. Eminent
soloists will also sing at various times
during the fair. which is an added
treat not usually enjoyed at such ex-
hibitions. The Michigan State Fair is
really an educational institutional, and
as such the management is planning
to make it the very best, through the
means Of high class talent and exhib-
ire

CHILDREN TO SING AT FAIR.
Miss Gertrude Sackett to Lead Chorus
Consisting Of Sixty Little Folks at
Michigan's Annual Exhibition, This
Wear

One of the most pleasing features
of the coming State Fair is the chill
dren's chorus to be arranged by Miss
Gertrude Sackett, of Detroit. A con-
tract was closed with Miss Sackett
for this pleasing feature at a meeting
of the fair officials held the pres
ent week. This energetic young
woman has arranged to train
sixty little girls, ranging from
ten years and upwards, so that
they can sing without music or words.
They will appeal all in white in the
big grandstand in the grove, west of
the main building, every day at the
noon hour. The childrens program is
composed of patriotic songs both new
and old and some novelties will be
interspersed These children will
come from every part Of the city, and
few from the suburban towns.
The Ladies' Navassar band will ac-
company the children in their singing,
which will make one of the finest fea-
lures of this big exhibition. This band
will come to Detroit direct from To-
ronto and besides accompanying the
children's chorus, they will play every
afternoon and evening. Kopp's band,
the big Cincinnati aggregation, will be
heard principally in the grandstand
during the races, the horse show and
the free acts. This is one of the finest
musical organizations now appearing
before the public, and has made a
great success during the past summer.

FAIR WILL PLEASE EVERYONE

The modern state fair, such as that
which will open in Detroit on Sept
2, and continue until Sept. 10, is not
a commercial enterprise nor a money
making scheme, but a place where
views can be exchanged and informa-
ton snapped" Farmers and others
will meet and discuss their common
troubles and tell of their success and
failures. Men show what they have
done and others learn what can be
done. A modern fair also promotes
industry by giving to all who attend
a larger view of the possibilities of
life. This Is an industrial era and
IL the farmer, merchant, mechanic
and professional man wish to keep
pace with the times they must know
what Is being done in all the avenues
OF trade, commerce and manufacture.
One way to do this is to take part in
the annual Michigan State Fair This
institution is planned to educate and
incite the producer to higher ideals
of perfection. That this is true is
evident from what the fair has ac-
complished all through the state dur
ing the many, years it has, been in ex-
istence. ~7- reno. r-,..
There is also the amusement fea-
strre,a which cannot be overlooked.
There Is an immense value Of the
most practical kind in wholesome
recreation and amusements such as
those afforded at the Michigan State
Fair Men, women and children must
be entertained in some way. The ele-
waiting character of fine music Is
everywhere recognized. Good racing
and feats of skill of all kinds are al
ways enjoyed.
The Michigan State Fair has some
thing for everyone. IL is for the
young and old, the serious and the
gay, rich and the poor-at once an
education and an opportunity.

POLICE AND yfIRaMeN AT FAIR.
Every Precaution Will Be Taken at
MichIsan's Annual Exhibition to
Protect Lives and Property OF
Everyone Who Visits the Grounds.


The management of the Michigan
State Fair, which opens this year on
September 2, at Detroit, and continues
until September 10, has planned to
give the exhibition city every facility
for safety. This applies both to police
and fire protection. This is as 1t
should be, as thousands and thousands
OF dollars worth of property are taken
to the grounds during the week of
fair. The Detroit police and the sher-
IN and his deputies have planned this
year, as heretofore, to make the expo
sition as safe from disorderly charac-
tiers and thugs as is done down in De-
troit Gambling will not be permit
ted and everything that tends to lower
the high standard of the fair will be
eliminated.
The protection against fire is as
complete as any section of Detroit.
An engine house with a full equip
ment OF metropolitan fire fighters
from the Detroit department will
again be constantly on duty during
the exposition. With such facilities
as these, it is almost impossible for
fire disaster to occur. The Michigan
State Fair is practically an organized
city and every comfort will be given
visitors that can be secured down in
Detroit.

NEEDFUL KNOWLEDGE
Bridgeport People Should Learn to Detect the Approach of Kidney
 Disease

The symptoms of kidney trouble are so unnaistakable that they. leave no ground for doubt Sick kidneys ex- crete a thick, cloudy, offensive urine, full of sediment, irregular of passage or attended by sensation of scalding. The back aches constantly, headaches and dizzy spells may occur and the victim is often weighed down by a feeling of languor and fatigue. Neg lect these warnings and there is dan- ger of dropsy, Bright's Disease, or di- abetes. Any one of these symptoms is warning enough to begin treating the kidneys at once. Delay often proves fatal.
 You can use no better remedy than Doan's Kidney Pills. Here's Bridge port proof:
 Mrs Thomas Burns, 1928 Iranistan Ave, Bridgeport, Conn.,, says: My husband suffered from a dull aching in the small of his back for a long time His kidneys were in a weaken ed condition and the secretions from these organs were very irregular in action. On a friends advice he be- gan using Doans Kidney Pills and this remedy cured him. During the ten years which have intervened. MT. Burns has had no return of kidney trouble and has remained loyal friend of Doan's Kidney Pills. He uses the remedy occasionally when his kid- neys have become disordered and the best of results are always received."
