@ /
 The people of New Britain will have an opportunity of witnessing in moving pictures at Foxs theater On Monday afternoon and evening next the actual happenings of the guer- rilla warfare, the horrors and snf- ferings of our brave boys who at present are on Mexican soil, fighting for the flag we all so dearly love.

WHEELER BROTHERS
 SHOWS COMING MAY :

During the history of the Wheeler Brothers shows they have been noted for putting on the most intensely rea- listic racing in it's Hippodrome con- tests that were ever witnessed under canvas, put on in a manner that dis tinguishes them from the farces of acting seen with other shows. Among the races put on are, Flat Races, Run. ming Races, Man against horse, Hur- dle Races, Elephant, Camel and Pony Races. Also the ever exciting Char tot Races.
 During the racing an exhibition of daring riding will be given by a troupe of genuine Cossack Riders, who without doubt accomplish more dif1l- cult and death-defying feats than any riders that have ever visited this coun- try.
 By means of cash prizes to the lady and gentleman winning the most of the races during the week, the show has caused a real rivalry to exist be- tween the contestants, and though the racing is good natured, yet it is al ways for blood and testing the nerve and ingenuity of the riders and the speed of the horses to the entire sat- isfaction of the spectators. "Oh, com e. let us go before the racing begins, " is a remark frequently heard at cir cuses, but the knowing ones never make such a suggestion when attend ing the exhibition of the Wheeler Brothers Shows, which will be in this city for one day, Tuesday. May 5.

It is not the policy in Lyce um productions to resort to Taking any of the important elements when, even at a considerable expense it is possible to procure the necessary me- chanical features For the staging of this big attraction the management has had to add to the force of scene painters and carpenters to get out the work.

HENDERSONYMLEaS UNCLEAN
STREETS GET BAD PUBLICITY.
DR.. John 3. Ennis Furnishes Articles
Published in Florida Papers;
More Cleanliness Desired.

St. Petersburg, Fla, Oct. 20, IA.
kditor Democrat:
The following item appeared in the
daily Independent, Oct. 9Th:
Just Said I'm Passing"
Chester Williams. -Hendersonville
u c., have have few advantages over
st. Petersburg, but certainly one OF
! them is not clean streets. Since my
vacation there, / appreciate the attrac-
ton Of clean streets in st. Petersburg
After being in a place with dirty
streets for a month, when one is ac-
custoned to clean ones, the sight OF
the clean home street certainly is d
welcome prospects. Really, l had
never realized what an attraction our
clean streets are till experiencing such
sights as saw in Hendersonville.
While it would not injure us mate
rally with the hundreds of our citi-
zens who visit you yearly, discover
ed the effect was bad on many who
had never visited your lovely city but
was contemplating going there mex!
year. To correct the idea that your
streets are all dirty / wrote the fol-
lowing which appears in today issue
of the same paper.
sJust Said I'm Passing"
DR.. John e. Ennis.-Since the streets
have been paved, st. Petersburg GER
tatnly is a clean city. This is one
feature that always mention as a
chief attraction to tourists when on
my summer visits through the North.
Hendersonville, N. c., is rapidly ap-
|nloaehing the same condition There
Is but one street, Main street that is
noticeably dirty. This street, in width
and character, resembles our Central
avenue. The postofice, leading ho-
tells and principal business houses are
all on it. Consequently it is center
of interest for tourists. 1t is well
cleaned every morning, but such an
amount of traffic on it, with hundreds
OF vehicles drawn by oxen, and horses
soon makes it an ungainly, disreputa-
BILE sights especially to visitors from
the Sunshine City. All the other
kstfaets in Hendersonville could, not Of
feIlds any yisitof-indeed they viii
compare favorably with our own
streets for cleanliness and attractive
ness.
Much Improvement can and should
be made in keeping Main street clean
ly Every merchant should be com
RELIED to have a. garbage can. to receive
and hold. the sweepings from his room.
Any one throwing refuse of any kind
on Main street should be fined. Keep
the street free from any litter save
those deposited by animals brought
there by outsiders and no just COM
plafnt can be made.
Hendersonville must copy st. Pe-
tersburg in having clean streets IN
o~der to become the greatest summer
resort in America.
Yours truly,
JNO. E. ENNIS.

OTf it we're my work to manage a

ment,
Advertisers should always take this
into consideration since it materially
aids them and makes advertising much
more valuable without marring the
reading matter in the least.
Newspaper Better Than Ads on Fences
That the country weekly is nearer
the purchasing public and that the adj
vertiser will benefit by using it to q
greater extent than by using any 9TH
er medium in the opinion of Arnolds
Joerns, advertising manager of large
Chicago corporation. Mr.. Joerns says:
Some merchants think they have
stenciled their names and locations on
the fences, and others are satisfied
when they have defaced the landscape
with some billboards, but to my mind
there is only one way for merchant
to push his bushes, and that is by
telling his story through space In the
home paper. The first thing is to have
something to sell and then let the
people know it in such a fashion thai
they will come and buy. In the col
ulIlns of the weekly home print paper,
with it's familiar names and land
marks, you can come more nearly
talking to a customer face to- face
than you can by any method except
the actual call. @

HOW TO TREAT YOUR YARDS,
SCHOOL AND CHURCH GROUNDS.
Observant Man Gives Excellent Sug-
geStiOns About Dirty Front Yards;
Clean Them Up.

E. S. Millsaps, district agent for
Western North Carolina for the farm
demonstration work, makes the fol-
lowing timely suggestions on how to
treat the premises:
To Citizens of Henderson County:
Governor Locke Craig has issued his
proclamation setting forth the Srd,
4th and 9Th days of December as Com
munity Service days, and calling upon
all the people of the State to observe
them, in accordance with the outline
set forth
The observance of these days in
this community service work is emil
nently worth while. There has been
some of this work done in the cities.
inspired by the activities Of the Civic
Leagues and other socities, but there
are few country communities that
have any organization of any sort to
promote these betterments, and our
people have thought little about them.
Cur people as a rule have very little
civic pride and they take very little
thought of the simple laws of santa
ton
The first day, Thursday, is set apart
as Public Roads, Grounds and Build
ing Day" This day may be observed
just as the Governor has indicated,
but there is another feature that
would like to emphasize in connection
with this work of this day, and that
is the cleaning up of the home grounds
There are many, many homes that
have not had a genuine cleaning III
years. do not mean so much the
inside Of the houses as the outside and
the yard and grounds Immediately
surrounding the house. ] do not say
what I am about to say with any IN
eliminating motive, but simply call at
tention to it as fact. There are
many home grounds that are piled
With rubbish and junk of all sorts, and
even weeds growing with utter aban-
dcnment l have seen in almost every
county in the State piles of lumber
Old half rotten stuff, piles of rocks
and brickbats, old wagons, broken
down buggies, and old farm machinery
scattered all around the house, even
in what should Be- the front yard
This junk is exceedingly unbecoming
there. 1t is even vulgar. In the busV
life of the farmer he lays this thing
4Ed that down and feels that he has
not the time to remove it. Then slops
are thrown about the dooryard, and
F'S pens are placed too near the house
With their teeming swarms of flies ant
the air is full of their i'll smelling
doors.
