Frank G. King and Chic Perkins
were at the opera house last week.
We know of no two people who have
given more genuine pleasure to the
people of Iowa than they have during
the course of their career on the stage
They have depicted the drama that
anneals. the fun that raises laugh
and the pathos that brings tear. 10
the taste trained to Mansfield and
Irving and Terry they may not appeal
but they have brought lots of JOY to
lots of middle class lives such as ours
and they have given to the world
much more than they have received

But the best fun about the circus is
watching it unload. We want every
boy in Denison to be up at 4 a. m. II
is a good chance to get personally &C
quainted with the elephants and ii
gives delicious foretaste of the joys
to come. 1t places one in a sort OF
intimate relationship that nothing else
can give. The circus is as strictly
an American product as baseball
European countries copy it and envy
it, but there it is strictly city prod
uct, confined by walls and limited to
the larger places. 1t is only in Amer
lea that the circus can come to a
town the size of Denison and make
money. At any rate it will be big
day and you and your family are Of
ficially and unofficially invited to
come.

What Denison needs most is a lit.
tie more of the spirit inculcated by
our Christian Science friends. Let us
assert and maintain and demonstrate
that Denison is good, booming, up
to-date town, a town with a future
Let us deny the existence of the
knocker and the hookworm and the un
desirable citizen> Let us cultivate
such faith in Denison that we will in
vest our money in Denison, not as an
elemosynary institution, but as a bust
ness proposition. One man who could
impress this faith on our people
could change the map of Denison and
reconstruct it's future.

With his proverbial chivalry, the
editor of the Bulletin has gone on rec
ord, not only that he is opposed to
woman suffrage, but that he is op'
posed to giving the voters OF Iowa a
chance to express themselves on the
subject. For a man whose party is
supporting the initiative and referen'
dunn in order to get the sentiment OF
the people on all questions of legis'
lation, it would seem that opposition
to a vote on the suffrage question was
out of place. But then, the Bulletin
is always at it's best when fighting
women.

Now, if the automobile dealers OF
Denison are as wide awake as they
are cracked up to be they will organ
ize an automobile parade for circus
day. There will be hundreds of ma
chimes in town and there could be no
better opportunity of showing the
various makes and the extent of the
automobile industry. Why not organ
ize an automobile parade to follow the
circus parade?

One of the most beautiful drives
out of Denison is that on the east
side of the West Boyer towards De-
lott. But it is always in bad con-
dition. 1t would shorten the distance
to Deloit and would draw trade to
Denison if kept in good shape. Isn't
there combined brains enough along
that line of road to keep it up prop

Do not miss the opportunity afford

chance. Thinking is painful pro

brain cells grow fabby and flacid just
as the muscles do. Thinking about
business all the time makes the brain
cells lop-sided. We once heard OF a

While the scientific study-of ag-

receiving more attention from
the various colleges having agri-
cultural departments, the Depart
ment Of Agriculture finds it
difficult to secure as many speci-
alists in various lines as it needs
the great work it is doing for the
American agrarian interests.
The day of the hap-hazard farmer
is almost past. With land val
ues rising upward, it is becom-
ing daily more needful that the
scientific skill should be brought
to bear on the problems that
comfort the farmer. Young
men who have been reared on the
farm can find in scientific agri-
culture promising fields for theii
best endeavors. The Govern
ment service itself employs some
5000 young men, graduates OF
the Agricultural colleges and
scientists in every sense Of the
term, who not only receive good
pay but are encouraged to under.
take scientific independent
research, and who find theil
work in the Department of Agri.
culture a stepping stone, very
often, to wider and more lucrative
fields in commercial life or in the
service of other governments.
