Patrons of the Grand are be-

bill this week. Bessie Valdare

is featured as the star act. With
all the cleverness of trick riders
the girls have the additional
pleasing qualities of good looks
and pretty clothes.
Lora, the human bird, mystifles
with her ability to answer ques-
lions from the audience. Even rs
a feat of memory, her work is
marvellous. Alfred Jackson, pos

holding the crowd than most of
his kind. Music from COW bells
and other instruments is the con-
tribution of the Craigs, who open
the bill. Difficult to understand

No taxes! No tariff! No crime!
Thus in a half dozen words may
be eptomized the arcadian condi-

San Marine is a country seldom

the oldest and at the same time
the smallest independent state In
Europe. It's history dates back be-
fore the middles ages, when the
city of San Marine was founded

years has lain imbedded within

You don't find many people who
will stick up for a goose when it
comes to a discussion of either its
affection or it's mentality, but
there is a Franklin goose which
has indicated the tribe. This
goose has brains, several of them.
Robt. Brawner of South Frank
fort gave the goose to Ben Keenon
of North Frankfort. In putting
away from himself this goose.
Rrawner felt no computations. He
thought the goose's heart-strings

they were, he felt it couldn't stray
back.
But the goose knew better,
When carted across the Kentucky
river it took notice. No sooner

good ball but was hit at likely times.
