Darwin Enjoying an Early Morning
Repast In RineIinovilie.

Darwin, the famous man monkey
owned by the Ringing Brothers cir
Gus, would, according to his horos-
cope, be mechanical genius were he
a human being. This spring when
the Ringing circus opened It's season
Darwin joined the organization on
the opening day. He had travelled 81
900 miles by water and rail In wood
en- box. He was scarce two years old
and none too strong. Things looked
dark for Darwin, but he took to civ
iliatizon like duck to water, and
under the tutelage of Charles Smith,
head animal trainer, he has devel-
oped like an infant prodigy.
Mr.. Smith has remarkable ideas on
the subject of animal training, and
one Of them is that all animals in
common with human beings feel the
influence of the zodiac. my father
put me In this way Of thinking when
I was boy" Smith explained in a
recent interview, land have had oc-
casion to thank him many times for
his teaching. I would no more think
of trying to train an animal without
knowing the sign under which he
was born than I would think OF plant
ing corn in December. Take Darwin,
for instance, his horoscope has been
substantiated in numerous ways.
Some people, of course, may deem my
theory a joke, but have never
known them to fail. They have
helped me to master several hundred
wild beasts"

TWO district grand bodies which l
am commanded by my district mast

your generous words of welcome, ex-

the tribe died years and years ago

Cherish Same Principles.
Members Of our order cherish the
same principles that are held sacred
by the Independent Order Of Odd
Fellows, only our organization is
much the older. The Independent or
der In the United States is made up
mostly of white men, while the Grand
United order is composed OF men OF
nearly every race and cline. We re-
ceived our charter from the grand
lodge Of England and the American
charter, is represented by our sub
committee OF management at Phila-
deiphia. The mother lodge Of Eng
land has always treated all her child
FEN exactly alike in every part of the
globe and the password in England
and America Is always the same. Our
motto, friendship. love and truth, has
been the guide Of the men while
peace, happiness and prosperity has
been the motto of the women in the
Household Of Ruth from time immem-
orial. More than four hundred thous-
and persons hold membership in the
Grand United Order of Odd Fellows.
