FREE ATTRACTIONS
OF HIGH CALIbRE
FAIR ASSOCIATION COMMITTEE
CONTRACTS FOR THREE BIG
THRILLERS THIS FALL.
BALLOON TROUPE TO FEATURE
SPECTATORS WILL SEE SPECTA-
CLEO OF AERONAUT SHOT OUT
OF CANNON IN MID AIR.

President G. Hillerud and Secretary
A. F. Strebel of the Agricultural So
ciety of Stearns County, upon whom
devolves the task of securing the free
attractions for the Stearns county
fair, announce that they have already
contracted for three "thrillers" as a
nucleus of the free shows to be given
at the fair this fall.
The big feature will be an aeronau-
tic stunt by Prof. Walter Raub and
troupe. This act is heralded as one
of the best in the country and guaran-
teed to make nerves Jingle. The con-
tract stipulates that on the first day
of the fair proper there will be bal
loon ascension with six parachute
jumps or drops by one aeronaut. On
the second day there will be an Assem-
sion by two aeronauts-man and
woman-both of whom will make
triple parachute drops from the one
balloon.
The big thrill will come on the
third day, however, when Prof. Raub
will give Sank Centre something new
the flying bomb act. The aeronaut
is encased in a paper shell and placed
in a cannon which is carried skyward
by a large balloon. When at a good
height, the cannon is fired and the
bomb hurled toward the earth. It
explodes and releases the aeronaut,
who floats down to terra firma with
red, white and blue parachute. This
is declared the most sensational and
prettiest act on the road this year.
Holman and John will introduce two
complete and distinct acts, "The Liz
ard and the Frog" and the Comedy
Roman Ring Act" In the former the
two performers wear costumes to rep
resent lizard and frog and give cur
ious and counterfeit presentations of
the strangest denizens of the tropics.
They are contortionists of high cali
bre. The Roman Ring Act introduces
the duo as clowns in a serial of funny
aerial work. They are proclaimed
headliners as character gymnasts.
DeVelde and Zelda are versatile and
artistic equilibrists, giving exhibitions
of hand, head and teeth balancing,
single and double contortion, slack
wire evolutions and great dental
strength. Strebel says this is an tex
ceedingly lustrous, dignifed presenta-
tion."

PREFER MINNESOTA TO COAST
From Extended Visit In South
ern California.

Mr.. and Mrs. A. E. Erwin returned
last week from ten weeks visit in
Southern California. Mr.. Erwin says
they kept on the go every day of their
absence and that they visited practi-
cally every corner of the Golden State
southland, also crossing the Mexican
border into the tourist town of Tia
Juana which gains fame because of it's
notoriety for open and unrestricted
gambling of every description. In
California the Erwins headquartered
in Los Angeles and San Diego, de-
voting ten days to the exposition in
the latter city. At Los Angeles they
were the guests of Rev. and Mrs. S.
L. Mitchell and met many former
Sank Centreites. On the return trip
they stopped several days at San
Francisco and at Lodi, Calf, where
they visited with relatives of Mrs. Err
win. Mr.. Erwin says he likes Cali
fornia but likes Minnesota better, re-
marking: "They have beautiful sun

derful scenery, but give me Minnesota
for steady diet. In all our travels
we did not see as much poverty and
as many poor people as we saw in
Southern California. 1t is a rich
mans country and never will be any
thing else, because it can't produce
enough to provide for the thousands
on thousands who are flocking there
and are unable to obtain employment
or paying business openings. In Los
Angeles we saw idle men by the
thousands who would be glad to get
anything to do. San Diego and San
Francisco looked far buster and more
prosperous. San Diego would be my
choice of residence place of all the
California cities we visited"

ENTERTAINS THE KIDDIES

Street Commissioner George M.
Rice has long had desire to enter
tain the Riddles of Sank Centre at a
matinee at the Caughren as soon as
Manager Dubeau could book some
thing that would especially appeal to
them. The appearance of winsome
Ella Hall in "The Jewell furnished
the vehicle for the entertainment. A
number of prominent business and
professional men were invited to pass
on the film Tuesday morning. The
picture met with their enthusiastic ap-
proval, and the matinee was given
Tuesday afternoon at $3.50. Nearly
600 children took advantage of Mr..
Rice's generous offer, and today
George is the most popular man in
town among the youngsters.

best to "do my duty to God and my

In Scouting boys do not stand still.

this the whole sphere of the Scout
program is made available by the

AS an organization the Scout move
ment is neither military in thought,
form or spirit, although it strives to
instill the military virtues of honor,
loyalty, obedience and patriotism.
The Boy Scouts as an organized
body recognizes the religious element
in the training Of a boy, but it is alb
solutely non-sectarian in its attitude
toward religious training. It's policy
is that the church with which the Boy
Scout is connected shall give definite
attention to his religious life. If he
be Roman Catholic Boy Scout, the
Roman Catholic church of which he is
member is the best channel for his
training. If he be a Protestant, nc

belong, the church of which he is g
member is held as the proper place
for him to learn the things that per.

Through the activity of Rev. E. G..
Schmeiser, rector of the Church of
the Good Samaritan, Sank Centre is
to have company of Boy Scouts Of
America. Organization will be per-
fected next Monday evening at Z
o'clock in the high school gymnasium.
All boys between the ages of IL and
Is can become Boy Scouts by attend
ing. Boys under IL years will not be
admitted.
Interest in the Boy Scout movement
is worldwide. Boy Scouting means
outdoor life, which in turn means
health, strength and practical outdoor
education; it developes the power of
initiative and resourcefulness; it in
sures good citizenship.
1t seeks to help boys who arrive at
that age when they slip their mothers
apron strings at the garden gate and
seek their amusement in the "blind
alley" or the swimming hole" 1t
directs "the gang" instinct in growing
boys in the right channels, which is
not always possible for fathers and
mothers in these modern days.
Scoutcraft includes instruction in
first aid, life saving, tracking, signal,
ling, cycling, nature study, seaman
ship, campcraft, woodcraft, chivalry
and all the handicrafts. By combin,
ing wholesome, attractive outdoor &C,
tivities with the influence of the
Scout Law and Oath, the mt -omen1
