The Big Circus Coming.

One of thu, pleasant things for a
newspaper is the announcement OF
first class circus coming and this we
have the pleasure of doing for the
Number One Advance Car of the
Downie & Wheeler Shows was in
the city Tuesday and the small army
of men in white overalIs and jump
ers pasted on every billboard board
wall and available barn in and about
the town with fiaring posters OF
wild animals, petite ladies, high
spirited horses wonderful trained
ponies athletic men and goodness
knows what all. The ''kiddies" are
thrilled with JOY and the grownups'
gaze at the pictures and remember
the happiest moments of their hap
py childhood days. Baseball is a
national sport but the circus is the
national amusement and it will
never grow wearisome as long as
managers and special agents scour
every corner of the globe for new
and strange beasts and snappy death
defying acts.
The Downle and Wheeler Shows
have grown large through sheer
merit and the everlasting diligence
of the management. Every act
must stand the critical test and each
performer, musician, official or at.
tache must be lady or gentleman
under all circumstances or seek 9th.
err employment elsewhere. This is
an iron clad rule with the Downie
and Wheeler Shows and to this fea
ture they attribute the greatest
part of there wonderful success.
We will publish futher details ano
all we care to say now is for the
'kiddies' to save their pennies anc
for the "grownups' to arrange to
go to the show aud make the man

there's nothing new under the sun

ton here is Saturday Nov. 1st. B.

Boy Scouts On a Hike.

Troop No. / of the Boy Scouts of
America took very enjoyable hike
on Friday afternoon to an oyster
supper given by Mr.. c. J. Shields,
our Scout-master at his home, Mar
atoc. near Rornoke River.
The Bear and Leopard Patrols as
sembled at the office of our Scout
master DR.. A. D. Morgan and at four
o'clock we set out our six mile hike.
After marching about a mile the
troop broke ranks for observation
and nature study.
Reaching Maratoc about dark we
were all prepared to do Justice to
the most excellent supper which
awaited us.
Uncle Billie Whitmore was maste,
of ceremonies so it is needless to say
his humor and jolly companionshiE
added flavor to the feast.
After we had partaken almost toe
freely we felt in better condition tc
start on our journey homeward
After expressing our thanks for the
gracious entertainment, we started
on the hike toward town.
About a mile from Maratoc we
came upon a wagon which had beer
sent ahead to carry US home. Al.
though we did not mind the hike
home it was pleasant surprise.
We will ever remember Mr.. anC
Mrs. Shields for the delightful en-.

lows: "The true sportsman, whether
he be hunter or fisherman, if he is
loyal to the real interests of his fav-
vorite vocation, will always be an
earnest friend of conservation in the
most comprehensive meaning of the
term"
He gave praise to the sportsmen
of this state for the work they have
done in securing better laws for the
protection of all wild life and then
delighted his large and appreciative
audience with personal "reminiscences
of his hunting days in the Rocky
Mountains. He told, picturesquely
of the changes in the physical condi-
ton of the country since the advent
of the white man and expressed the
thought that in the early stages of
the country's history the destruction
of wild game and the forests were
necessary in the onward march of
civilization.

such sanctuaries and he urged their
adoption in all states.
The senator spoke of the value of
Arbor day in educating the children
to the necessity of forest conserva-
tion and aroused the enthusiasm of
the sportsmen when he suggested
that the state have Bird Day, either
in connection with Arbor Day or
separately, devoted to instructing
children in the value of our native
birds and the best means of protect
ing them" The senator urged the
raising of game as an economic prop
osition, particularly the elk and deer
which he said were as good or bet
ter food than the steer or sheep. On
this point he said:
THE elk and deer can be raised
successfully and cheaply under many
different conditions of food and eli
mate. Safeguard, of course, against
the destruction and sale of wild deer
under the guise of domesticated deer
must be made and enforced. Game
laws deserve the hearty support and
cooperation of the farmers of the
state and of the country. The object

preserve a few animals and birds to
furnish sport for a limited number,
but to protect and increase useful
species for the benefit of the people
in general. The object is the pre-
servation not only of game animals
and game birds, but also birds of
song and plumage, and those which
are useful as scavangers or as de-
stroyers of injurious insects and
noxious weeds.
ITO a certain extent game conser-
walton restricts the increase of in
furious species and prevents the in
PRODUCTION of animals and birds
which are likely to become pests.
Moreover, the tendency of the game
laws has been to restrict hunting;
to shorten the open seasons; to pro-
hibit non-game throughout the year,
and to abolish netting and trapping
entirely"
The speaker closed by urging pro-
lection for the insectivorous birds, as
he said they are of great value to the
farmers OF the state. He said
Weeds and injurious insects cost
the farmers of the United States mil
lions of dollars annually, directly
and indirectly. Anything that tends
to reduce the number of weeds or to
check the ravages of injurious in
sects is a direct benfit. By way of
| illustration, the common meadow
lark is perhaps one of the most valu-
able of all birds, for more than half
of its food consists of harmful insects
and the vegetable portion of it's fare
is largely made up of seeds of in
| furious weeds.
"The nighthawk, almost exclu-
sively insectivorous, and usually sup
posed to feed on insects which fly a
distance above the ground, has been
shown to feed on grasshoppers and
| flickers devour thousands of ants.
There should be complete COOP
Grafton between the sportsmen and
the farmers of Pennsylvania. The
! sportsmen should endeavor to pro-
tect the farmer from persons who
mutilate stock or tear down fences
or commit injurious trespass. 1t
would be well if the sportsmen could
| attend the Grange meetings and 9TH
or gatherings of farmers so that
farmer and sportsman might learn
to know each other better and get in
closer touch"
