CHEERING SOMEONE ON.

CHEERING SOMEONE ON.
Don't you mind about the triumphs,
Don't you worry after fame;
Don't you grieve about succeeding.
Let the future guard your name.
All the best in life's the simplest,
4 Love will last when wealth Is gone;
Just be glad that you are living,
And keep cheering someone on.
Let your neighbors have the blossoms,
Let your comrades wear the crown;
Never mind the little setbacks
Nor the blows that knock you down.
You'll be there when they're forgotten,
You'll be glad with youth and dawn,
II you just forget your troubles
And keep cheering someone on.
There's lot of sorrow round you,
Lots of lonesomeness and tears;
Lots OF heartaches and of worry
Through the shadow Of the years.
And the world needs more than tPiumphs;
More than all the swords we've drawn,
1t is hungering for the fellow
Who keeps cheering others on.
Let the wind around you whistle,
And the storms around you play;
You'll be here with Drawn and gristle
5i When the conquerors decay.
You'll be here in memories sweetened
OF the souls you've saved from pawn,
If you put aside the victories
And keep cheering someone on.

Old Shasta, pioneer town IN
shasta county, California, is passing
away. A few residents remain of the
thousands that were, but the air dis.
unctiy is that Of deserted village.
IA the golden days of It's glory Old
SHASTA sported a log cabin prison in
which Joaquin Miller was confined for
some slight offense. The "poet of
the Sierras" was then in his TWEEN
ties. In the dead OF night, SO the
story goes. an Indian girl with whom
he was infatuated, rescued him and
the couple fed. The Indian cir,
afferward became the poets wife.

cLouDED BY LEGISLATION.

Congress is engaged over mass of leglsla-
ton designed in the main to enable the govern
ment to act promptly in case OF national
emergency. From some of the current discus
sion, as reported, it becomes evident that there
is far from clear understanding by many OF the
old experienced members of both houses OF just
how much of this legislation is necessary; OF
how free to act the government already is I'M
der existing statutes. Here is one major trou-
BILE with every legislative procedure We con-
front every need of action with mass of new
Legislation. We have SO many laws now that
few, even Of able legislators, have clearly in
mind the import and permits to action OF
them en- masse.
Ex-President Taft has many times warned
of the conflicts accommodating by reason of this
tendency to over-legislation We must free the
hands of those in authority, Of course, so that
they may do what needs to be done quickly,
and there are many such needs now. 1t is
probably the quickest and most expedient way
out of the tangle to enact specific legislation to
meet the occasion But the situation is another
potent argument in favor of a complete over
hauling of our legislative and court methods of
procedure; of simplifcation of our laws and
an elimination of those which only impedi-
Iments to efficiency in administration.
In recent government trade report is shown
a great increase this year in the demand for
goods having to do with outdoor sports. Skates,
hockey sticks, sports clothes, skis and many
other implements are selling as never before
and more people are getting into outdoor games
than at any time. Here is trade benefit that
lis not derived from the war nor depends up
on it for continuance. Moreover it is a bene
fit which is widely shared, since the invest
ment brings returns in health and vigor. One
way and another, this nation is surely getting
onto it's feet

House.

The New York Stores will in
the near future open a produce
house in this city, where they
will either buy and sell vege-
tables or rent storage room to
people who ar enot prepared to
take care of their stuff at home.
1t will be remembered that last
year a lot of potatoes and other
vegetables were frozen and ruin
ed in this vicinity, and the New
York Stores plans to take care
of these things this year by stor-
ing them at a small cost to the
owner or by buying and storing
them away for sale. The an.
nouncement of the opening OF
this produce concern will ap.
pear in this paper as soon as the
necessary a6rangements can be
made by the New York Stores to
handle the business.

Greatest Circus
Is Coming Soon
Barnum and Bailey Show Will
Positively Exhibit In This
Vicinity.

There is to be real circus day
this year "a Barnum d Bailey
circus day. Advance guards of
the greatest show on earth an
nounce that this seasons route
carries it close enough to be
visited by everybody in this
vicinity. Thirty acres of tents
will be set, and the big show
will be exhibited in Chattanooga
on Sept 20.
A wonderful new program is
promised, and it is claimed that
this season the monster enter
tainment has more and better
things to show than ever before.
Starting with a magnificent page
ant entitled, "Aladdin and His
Wonderful Lamp" the circus
will occupy three hours or more
with events in air, on platform,
and rings, and in the huge
hippodrome surrounding. Not
one moment will be lost in all
of the spaces of the vast enclosure
The opening feature is the first
attempt at Chinese pageantry in
the history of American cIrcuses,
and it has been described as the
most gorgeous presentation ever
attemped. The story of the
genie slave of the magic lamp is
too well known to need descript-
ion here. However, it may be
we'll to call attention to the
possibilities for display in color
ing and magnificent settings in
the Chinese locale, and to the
fact that Barnum & Bailey have
spent $l,00O,000 to reproduce all
of its glorious possibilities.
The circus program, which fol-
lows the pageant, is made up
almost entirely of names and
acts new to the American public,
the cream of all continental cir
cuses having rushed to the big
shows European agents for book
ing on account of the closing of
most of the big foreign clrcues.
There is a complete Chinese cir
Gus, replete with thrilling serial
and arobatic feats; the famous
Hanneford family, champion rid
ers of Europe, will display their
wonderful skill; Signor Bagon-
CHI, the dwarf bareback rider,
described.as the equestrian comic
of the century, will thrill and
convuise with laughter; Pallen-
berg's wonderful bears will ride
on high bicycles, skate and per-
form on the trapeze; there will
be more clowns than ever before,
and in the menagerie will be seen
many new specimens of wild and
untamed animals. There are
a dozen of new baby. animals.
in the great ZOO.
Ihe will be more than one
hundred acts, 9 d to name and
