THE AVIS.
G}pistian8ted, st. &Poix.
Saturday, 25th February, 1911.

We are glad that the members of the
Young Mems Acrobatic Club met with so
fine a reception as they did on Monday
night at the st. Johns School house, on their
first attempt to entertain the public, and we
are still more glad to learn that they proved
themselves worthy of the interest shewn In
their efforts. As will be seen from an adj
vertisement in this issue. they intend giving
a third performance at the Scbool-house
this evening, and as they have reduced
their admission fees it is likely that they
will again have a crowded house; it will
also be seen that they intend to perform in
West Eud on Monday night.
AS to their performance we are told by
spectators we'll able to Judge that the gym
nastic feats are equal to those we have seen
shown here by professional gymnasts. In
the trapeze and the flying rings the exer-
cises we, e remarkably good, and altogether
the performance seems to nave been regard
ell as first class by all who were present.
We hope that the Club will be encouraged
to proceed with It's endeavours and will attract
new Members, who, If even they do not at
tain the skill of the Clubs foremost members,
will at all events learn some interesting and
strengthening exercises.
There is naturally a good deal of interest
taken here in the recent census. What will
1t show, all increase or q decrease III our
population ? For ST. Thomas and st. Jan

Several sites are already being con

1t is quite likely the Boy Scou
camp this summer will be on The
Auxvasse Creek near the Chicago &
Alton railroad bridge. This spot
has been recommended by those ia

camp, as we'll as very accessible.
The University Of California, Of
which Dr.. Benjamin Ide Wheeler Is
President, has added to its curricu
lum a course in Scoutcraft, TO trair
young men to become Scout Mas
ters. The course, which will count
towards the degree OF A. b., like
work in Latin, French, English and
Philosophy will go thoroughly intotht
activities OF the Boy Scout organiza'

their methods off handling boys and
developing them along the lines work

Scout movement.
Parents are inclined at times to
complain that the Boy Scout activi'
ties take up too much of the boys
time. They forget that the boys are
having healthy fun and. secondly,
that he is being trained to do some
thing worth while. Reports from
Scout Masters in New York show
that the0activities furnished by the
leaders of the Boy Scout Movement
are so absorbing to many boys that
they are taken off the street.

Railroads throughout the country
are speedily complying with the new
sanitary regulations made compulsory
by a number Of the legislatures. TIL
former practice on the part of the

abandoned with general ~alacrity TO

The Burlington system has taken
the lead in the installation of individ.
ual drinking cups on all its lines
north and west. Though the new la

A communication received from f.
NJ. Rumboit. Adjutant General Of
the Missouri Division of the Ma
tional Guard, states that Governor H,
s. Hadley deems it inexpedient at
present OF organize a company Of
the National Guard In Mexico.
However. the Governor is very
anxious, the communication states,
to meet the wishes Of the people of
Mexico to have a National Guard
organization here, and in case those
contemplating organizing a company
are certain that they can maintain
So men, he will organize a Machine
Gun Company of the Fourth Infan-
try.
This company will be armed with
the latest improved rapid fire guns
az soon as same are available from
the Federal Government. A num-
Der are now being manufactured for
issue to the National Guard of the
various States.
The reason for not allowing Mex
leo a company Of the National Guard
lies in the fact that there must be
So men per company constantly in
service. and in this case, Mr.. Rum
bolt states, investigation hardly
shows ability of the city of Mexico
to maintain that number in active
service.

He has made an offer to ship all
