FIT. DODGE GERMAN
DAY II.

FIT. Dodge. Aug. AT a meeting Of
the executive council of the committee
for the annual German day the final
plans for the big celebration were
formed.
One hundred German societies from
all over the state Of Iowa will gather
in this city on September 18th to cele-
brate the one-hundredth anniversary
OF the emancipation of the German
people from the despottc rule Of Ma
poleon. The celebration will have the
same significance to the loyal Germans
as the Fourth of July has here.
The plan for the event this year will
differ slightly from that Of 1912 in that
the guests will be Germans from all
over the state rather than simply mem
bers Of the German alliance.
II anticipate an attendance Of at
least 10000 Germans from all parts Of
the state" said DR.. Rose. II have re-
liable information that a delegation OF
at least fifty will attend from Burling-
ton alone. The American flag will be
given preference over all, although the
colors Of the fatherland will he appar-
ent on all sides.
THE German people bear as great
a love for Uncle Sam as they do for
their own country and the two flags
will be found together in many unique
decoration schemes,

"101" RANCH WILL
SHOWN TTUMWA
SHOW THAT HAS STARTLED THE
WORLD WILL BE HERE
ON AUGUST Fl.

The 101 Ranch Wild West, the larg.
est travelling exposition of historical
and romantic western life in the world
will visit this city on August Fl. CIV
ing two performances and inaugural
ing it's appearance with a gala morn
ing street parade. Miller Bros. &
Arlington, the owners, promise an en-.
tertainment SURPRISING In magnitude,
accuracy Of treatment and instructive
interest anything Of its character ever
cen under canvas.
One Of the advance agents charac-
terizes the show as The amous lO1
Ranch of Bliss, Okla. transported IN
veritable miniature for q day to this
city" The cowboys, COW girls, Ind.
ians. horses, cattle and ~buffaloes all
have permanent home OF the Okla
homa prairie. Only the several score
OF Mexicans, Cossacks, Texas Rangers
and Northwestern Mounted Police are
not regularly enrolled employees OF the
ranch. a ~
The record of 101 Ranch Wild West
is unprecedented in the history of the
circus. Though but six years old 1t
has appeared in every big city In this
country, travelled as far north into
Canada as the railroad penetrates and
shown it's wonders to Mexico City,
Mexico. Its success has been no more
spontaneous than enduring. Always
and everywhere crowds have focked
to it's performance, never seeming to
tire of It's stirring, unwonted scenes
and movement.
The organization which Is coming
to this city is an ampliaed edition of
the show which has startled the
amusement world for three years. 1t
is a living page from frontier history,
without professionalism or Theatres.
1t Is solely a real" wild west show.
Every feature and figure Is legitimate,
faithful and characteristic. Without
variation or illusion. the primitive
sports, perils, pastimes, h~ardships, ad-
ventures, chivalries and routine duties
OF the ranch, range and roundup are
reproduced in a great arena.
The 1O1 Ranch tournament, from It's
very nature and source, is different
from anything ever shown before un-
der Observation-Disclosures. :
