LETTERS TO THE EDlT02
Fair vaudaxiIIe Mout sf sinhtr

MT. Editor:-Some one at the fair Querled, How did you like the vaude- v1lte!" Oh. it was simply out of sight couldn't see one speck of it on ac- and autos hanging around the first row, and on account of the great fore thought of the management in getting the platform down where no one could see 1t fearing it might be observed. Wonder what the trouble was? Wasn't 1t any good and did they want to get 1t over with so no one could see it or was it simply piece of poor manage ment year after year in leaving that stand where nobody can see it?''
 The New London County Asricul- tyral Society had its usual attendance at the fair, blessed as it was with the finest kind of weather. but after all is the management giving the public a run for it's money? Half a dollar for every individual and half dollar for every automobile. The space within the race track was crowded with au- tos as was also the space without The grandstand was packed; both stands. There certainly ought to have been a handsome revenue coming to the so- cfety out of the first days receipts and they cannot say that they. have tertainment which they gave to the public in return Those prices will take you into any fair in the country
 They have stand where vaudeville
 
 stand has heen there for years No one can see it but the people on the grand stand and they can't ali see it. For the good it is to the masses of those in the grandstand, it might as well be sunk down into the earth out of sight. No one can see it aside from the dozen or so fgnofamus who and block everybody's view and be the subject of general criticism from ev- cry one on all sides. These facts must be apparent to the management and they cannot but help hear the criti- cism and kick from every quarter. Three or four auto tops surrounding it obstructs the view of thousands of others who come and pay their good money to see the performance. Ap would raise that stand or 10 feet ana surround it with q fence rail so that everybody might enjoy the benefits of 1t. This has always been subject of complaint by everyone who attends who may get in the center Of the srandstand at vantage point. Why not give the people something for their money at least, and spend | few dol- being taken in there during these fairs, and let the children and the poor peo- pie who can't afford tb buy a grand stand seat see something of this vau- nuisances who persist in hanging on the edges from the stand? A couple of carpenters in two days could put the stand up sufficiently high so that ev- erybody could see 1t.
 Hundreds of poor people have been mulcted season after season by spend Ing good money going to these fairs and then not getting even the benefit of the performances which they are entitled to on account of poor tudg- ment on the part of the management

DEFECTIVE AMMUNITION.

There is nothing unusual about the fact that there Is much anxiety over the discovery that . quantity of the ammunition which was sent to the United States troops now in France was defectivx. that it was slow firing and that 1t endangered the lives of the users from the fact that the in- vestigatfon which the soldier would naturally make into the cause of the trouble would result in the opening of the brcech by which time the ex- plosion would be ready to take place and the handler of the gun would be very likely to get 1t in the face
 This represents a condition which ought not to exist. Our soldiers must have the best ammunition that can be obtained. That :s what they are eri- titled to. <that is what the go4ern- rnent is duty bound to furnish. them and nothing else can be accepted. It fs not to be supposed that defective cartridges were furnished intentional ly.- TheSfact that the small trace of bromide was able 70 bring about a chemical, change after such ammuni- tioh had been tested may be accepted as an adequate excuse but 1t makes it clear that all possibility of such a condition in the future must be elimi- mated.
 Whethep a more thorough investi- gation into the condition of the am- intuition is needed than the explana- tion given by thk head of the ordnance department rests with the war depart ment to determine, bu. it is most for tunate that the effectiveness was dis covered before our troops were called upon to engage in battle, and hence forth every effort must be made to correct the condition aDd to see that nothing of the Kind occurs again.

 Admiral Benson. chief of naval op- erations, in an official statement the first of the kind, speaks most hope fully of the improvement in efficiency of the warfare against submarines. But he says there is no certainty that any of them have been destroyed by gun fire. though there is evidence to support the belief that quite number of them have been thus disposed of. They sink, whether voluntarily Or in- voluntarily it Is impossible to say. Ard yet every few days some one ar rives to describe, in perfect detail, the destruction of a submarine by Sun- fire from the ship on which they are travelling.

You simply say to the drug store
man. "Give me a quarter OF an ounce
OF freezone." This will cost very ht-
tie but is sufficient to remove every
hard or soft corn from ones feet.
A few drops applied directly upon
a tender. aching corn should relieve
the soreness instantly. and coon the
entire corn. root and all. can be lifted
out with the fingers without pain.

enters a school where she is taught
ballet dancing. Miss Stewart was
nothing daunted when she found that
her script demanded her to dance
upon the nine foot line with the dane
ing master. She gracefully dances
the steps keeping in perfect rhythm
with him.
Later flashes are shown of her up
on the smooth stage as she dances
about on her toes amid the applause
OF the audience which has crowded
to the doors to witness her debut.

Parkinson says the roads of his coun-

they have experienced heavy travel
during the summer months. The
beet crop is one Of the best in the
history Of the county. The other
crops are being harvested as rapidly
as the labor condition will permit.
Men are scarce, this condition hay

account of the fact that the county

two new four-ton trucks and four

beets to the factory from the various
loading stations in the vicinity of the
factory. Six new brick bungalows
are just being completed for housing

The idea of hauling beets from load

past. The new factory will be ready
for grinding beets by october /.
