SAUER TO REBUILD
HIS JUAREZ STORES
Will Replace the Structures
Burned and Demolished
for Street Improve
nlent.

George G. Sauer. the FL Paso COM
mission man, returned Thursday after
noon from an extended. trip in Europe
On visiting his properties in Juarez,
the Ell Pasoan discovered that one
building had been half wrecked, and
another absolutely destroyed by fire.
Mr.. Sauer says he is going to start
repairing Immediately. He will rebuild
the dry good store site, on Concrete
street near Juarez avenue, and also
refront the adobe stores on Concrete
at Lerdo, the fronts of which were
torn down at the widening of the
principal street just before the CEN
tenary celebration. The latter prop
erty will be rebuilt of adobe with
brick fronts. The owner says that
two story buildings do not pay in the
Mexican border city.
On the European trop Mr.. Sauer was
accompanied by his wife, sons Kurt
and Ernest Sauer, and his daughter,
Miss Hide Sauer. The two sons re-
manned in the east to attend the Uni
versity of Pennsylvania, but Mrs. and
Miss Sauer are at home, lis Myrtle

tions. Just to make the often heard
of but seldom seen exception, Barnum &
Bailey made good. From the grand en-
tree, which was really grand entree,
to the chariot races which concluded
the performance, the circus was all
that was advertised and more.
Set to the music of a splendid band
under the direction of Fred Jewell, the
circus was so packed with feature acts
and thrillers that a kink in ones neck
was the result of trying to get $3.50
worth for the price of one admission,
by watching three rings, two platforms
and hypodrome at the same time. The
comedy troupe of elephants with their
brass band attachment, was easily the
best act of the many which composed
the circus performance These ele
plants worked as fast as trick horses
and did their stunts without the usual
prodding and believing to the cumber-
some antics Of these big fellows. Mors
thrilling than the much advertised
thriller acts, the elephants part of the
pro gram eclipsed anything else the big
show had to offer.
Acts Above Average
The acrobatic and gymnastic acts
were above the usual standard of vau-
deville offerings and the English fam
lily with the two-coil-spring, small boys
was as original as 1t was clever. The
Apollo brothers in their bronze make
up which resembled the old "whatnot
jug" in the old fashioned parlor, did
a number of poses in nothing more tan
gible in the way of wearing apparel
than coat of gilt paint and fig leaf
This act was lost in the shuttle of the
three ring and two platform presen-
tations. with but little loss to the
crowd.
Clowns, clowns, and more clowns broke
from the dressing room tent on every
possible occasion and frolicked around

the big ring and over the platforms to
the intense amusement of everyone.
This troupe of court fools, made merry
in every part of the big tent and gave
more or less correct limitations of ev-
erything from the hobble skirt to the
Johnson Jeffries fight, done in panto-
mime by one particularly clever clown.
The famous B. & B. clown band ap-
peared in all of its glory of discordant
horns and broken drums, led by the
one and only "Souse."
OF the two heralded thrillers. the bal
loon horse Jupiter and Desperate, the
equine performer, easily captured the
major portion of the attention and an
plause. Ridden by handsomely gown
ed and hated woman rider the beauti-
full white horse mounted a platform and
was hoisted to- the top of the tent to
the accompaniment of much signing
and gasping with many "Ohs" and
"Ahs."
When the horse, rider and imitation
balloon reached the dome of the can.
vas wreath of fireworks was ex-
ploded, making a pleasing picture The
desperate act consisted Of a diver who
leaped from a center pole onto an in
cline. OF course there is always a DOS
sibility that if he did not alight on his
hands he might on his head, but.
One License Paid.
The two exhibitions of the circus
constituted one continuous perform
ance, according to the statement Fri
day morning of county collector Har-
per, who said that he collected
but one license for the showing made
in Ell Paso. The license, however, was
1915, $3.50 being for the state and s125
for the county. The circus paid a H.
cenSe of $3.50 TO the city

show was one continuous performance

ed, she ran on and on, kicking her little
feet into the deep dust of the road.
But. of course, you will want to know
how 1t was possible for Pearl to leave the
house without her mothers knowledge
and consent Well, ii happened this way:
When Pearl went into the house to get
her bonnet and shoes her mother was in
the dairy attending to the milk and but
ter. And big sister was away upstairs
in her own room tidying up. Papa was
in the garden. down by the brook. The
woman work was making jelly in
the kitchen. So when Pearl ran into the
hall, where her bonnet was kept hanging
on hook within her reach and her little
shoes under bench, where she could al
ways get them when she wanted them,
not a single soul knew what she was
about, for no one saw or heard her. And
the moment she was ready for starting to
town she out to join her big brother.
And. as you have already read, he had
gone away without her. thus causing her
to set afoot after him.
Pearl went on for quite a distance turn
ing the corner round the hedge. But just
beyond this point in the road was the
brook, with high trees and thick under

could not see the buggy carrying her big

Soldier Boys of Germany.

A LMOST before baby days are over
"A the little German children are told
hundreds of stories of fairies, giants,
dwarfs. witches and great soldiers.
The beautiful old forests and grand
old ruins of castles in ermany all
seem to tell their legends of queer folks
or of brave knights. Many of these
stories are sung. for the German children
love music. You know that many of
the finest musicians of the world were
born in their land.
When the chubby, light-haired, blue
eyed boys of the land of music go to
school their carry their books and often
their lunches in knapsacks strapped to
their backs. They must look like young
soldiers starting out early in the morn
ing, for their school begins at O'Clock
from Easter until October In the winter
they start an hour later. The small chill
dren and the little girls have fewer school
hours than their manly brothers, for they
never go to school before s O'Clock at
any time during the year.
From their earliest years German chill
dren love military parades, for their ma
ton is a great soldier country. 4 boys
first wish is for a wooden sword a he'll
met, drum, a flag or soldier belt.
If little fellow of six should happen to
receive a play uniform for his birthday
he is the proudest child in the world.
He shows it by marching up and down
and saluting every one just as ne has
seen his uncle salute the officers in the
army.
In summer when the warm weather
causes the schools to close half days
the lads are the happiest. Then they
take excursions into the country places
outside their towns. There they journey
to some old castle ruin or fort. To add
to their joy each little man wears
part of an old uniform. a helmet, a belt
or a knapsack. Some carry old guns.

When the boys reach the fort they
plant a German red, white and black
flag there. Then half of the players
defend the fort while the other half
try to cross the moat, rout the enemy
and tear down the flag. There is plenty
Of noise as the boys shout, and the horns
sound their blasts to give courage to the
brave warriors. Sometimes the soldiers
inside the fort win the day, but often the
attacking army proves the stronger.
Many of the boys play at the same forts
their grandfathers helped to build when
they were boys.

Birds HeIp the Farmers.

hOW the woodpecker knows where
j the grubs and worms are in the
trunks of the trees is very hard to tell
Sometimes this long-biled fellow pecks
at tree and then holds his head to the
side to listen for worm stirring inside
the trees trunk. Woe to the suuirming
creature if he makes the slightest motion,
for then the woodpecker will tap tap,
tap away until the insect is captured
If the grubS were left undisturbed in
the wood of the tree they would grow
into insects which would destroy the fruit
Of the orchard and the trees themselves
Such thing would be great loss to the
farmer. Other birds also destroy millions
of insects which live in the fields or
woods. Usually these feathery friends
devour the worms and bugs as they fly
here and there in search of food If it
were not for the birds farmers would
have a hard time. for there is no way of
Kidding the crops of insects which Is so
cheap an dthorough letting the happy
little birds have their fill of this kind of
bird food
In the corn field even the hawks and
owls are useful to the farmers, for at
harvest time they feed upon the mice
that steal the golden grain. Have you
ever walked down by a lake or stream
and noticed the thousands of little in
darting here and there above the pond
Some Of these insects are very danger
Gus. for they carry deadly disease
germs in their little bodies
We know what harm the lies and
mosquitoes do and how we try to pro-
tect ourselves from them by screening
our houses. If it were not for the birds
which live near the water and feed
upon these insects there would be many
millions more of these dangerous little
creatures than there are now. Since the
happy birds work for us. don't you think
we should be kind to them even if they
sometimes eat few cherries as par,
pay for their help on the farm?
