torical pagents, dramatic festivals
and other entertainment features on a
huge scale.
A mammoth stadium Is being erect
ed in Denver and in this the athletic
events will take place. Special trains
will pour into Denver from all parts
of the country, especially from the
far east.
AS soon as this great festival is
over this tremendous throng of peo-
pie will be turned loose upon the re-
sorts of the west. The turner's are
noted for being good spenders and
their visits will pour golden flood into
every place they touch. Special trains
already are being charterd to take
tourists on to Salt Lake, to California
to the Yellowstone, to Glacier Nation.
al Park and to other famous scenic
places.
Coming with the turner's will be
vast number of people who are look.
ing for permanent homes in the west.
There are in the Easteln States thous
ands of young Germans who have not
been long in this country and are not
yet settled. The publicity campaign
of the turner's has aimed directly at
telling these new citizens of the posi-
bilities of all parts of the west. Many
OF them will take advantage Of the ex.
ceptionally low rates on all railroads
during the funniest to come out here
and make a personal investigation of
conditions. If they like the country
they will go bach east for their fami-
lies and will return to settle In the
farming or mining countries.
On the whole the 1918 German turn.

way of advertising and new settlers.

SELLS-Fl0TO
CIRCUS

Every good circus Is always on the
alert to add to it's performance fea-
lures that are new, startling and uni
que and of course the Sells-Floto
Circus which comes here on Thurs
day May 22 have never been behind
hand in that respect.
This season we are told that in ad-
dition to many other conventional
features the Sells-Floto people have
enlarged their tent until its seating
capacity is 10000 and that now it is
a three-ring affair which or course
means that 1t was necessary to hire a
great many more performers in order
to make the entertainment adequate
to its surroundings.
Amongst the new features might be
mentioned the famous Royal Scotch
Kiltie Band from Toronto, Canada,
who 1t is said have no superior as ex.
ponents Of Highland dances, folk song
and Celtic music. They are employed
by the Sells-Floto people at the
earnest request Of their many Scotch
friends all over this country. The eel
ebrated Devlin Zouaves, who are the
champions of all champions when it
comes down to military movements,
will also be seen both in the parade
and during the performance and Cap
tain Ouch Ricardo, together with
Miss Marguerite Ricardo will ex-
hibit in an immense amphitheatre h
troup Of Nubian lions, Mountain lions
Siberian and Bengal Tigers. Perhaps
one of the most thrilling acts ever Of
fered to the public.
Added to these are the famous rid
ers, Emily and Emma Stickney, great
est of all equestriennes, Rhoda Roy
ais troup of trained horses, Lucia
Fora, the bravest woman in the world
with her herd of marvelously trained
elephants, champion high-jumping
horses, forty superlative clowns, Mad
anne Lowande with her flock of train
ed pigeans and doves really pretty
and novel feature; all kinds of lofty
and ground acrobatics and last but
not least the famous Mephistopheles
spectacle introducing the most novel
picturesque and startling display in
the way of riding act that has ever
been produced on the stage or under
big tent.
The Sells-Floto management take
pleasure in announcing also that the
price of admission still remains the
same as. ever in former years-25
cents admits you to see II all.

RlIN1E:S7UREFEST
Denver, Colorado; June 25th
To June goth.

In every quarter of the United
States and in many foreign countries
thousands of people are getting ready
to come west this summer to attend
the great International German turn.
fest which is to be held in Denver
June 20 to 20. The gathering will be
one OF the largest ever held In Amer
lea. After the festival the tourists
will scatter to all parts of the west,
most of them spending the entire sum
mer in travel and recreation. A great
deal of money will be spent in the
west by the Teutonic visitors.
The German turnfests are held once
every four years. They attract men,
bers of the turner societies from all
parts of the world. Not only Germans
attend. Various countries have ath-
letic organizations that are similar to
end are affiliated with the turner's.
Also nearly all countries have colo
MES of Germans where there are turn
yereins-even China and South Africa
These people get together for gen.
eral frolic every four years. They de.
vote the whole summer to recreation.
This is the first funniest that has
ever been held in the west. 1t will
probably be the last-at least for a
century, Denver is making great prep
arations to entertain the visitors. The
greater part of 100000 will be devot.
ed to their festivities while in that
city.
AS soon as the tunrfest Is over the
visitors will scatter to resorts ali over
the west, The time will not be de-
voted to Colorado points alone. Utah,
New Mexico. Arizona, Texas, Wyo.
ming, the Yellowstone National Park,
and even Kanas and Nebraska will
receive part OF the thousands OF tour.
lists.
The central committee Of the turner
organizations, located at Denver has
been sending out tons OF literature ad-
yertising the west and its various at.
fractions. No Partially has been
shown for any particular section. The
publicity given the funniest surpasses
in value and volume that received by
any other great public gathering ever
held in the United States. 1t is of
worlds fair preparations.
BY means of this publicity espe.
cially that dealing with the mountains
and other scenic attractions of the
western states-many thousands OF
people have been induced to come to
the funniest who have never before
attended one of these gatherings. Con
sequently the Denver gathering this
summer will surrass all previous ones
In attendance.
There will be great international
athletic competitions, like Olympic
games Of Europe; singing contests
in which choruses from all over Amer
lea and Europe viii participates; his.
