THE CIRCUS
Excellent Weather Brought Out the
Crowd and While the Aggregation
Was Small, 1t was Enjoyable

Last Wednesday was circus day,
the day on which flaming posters told
of the coming of the Gollmar Bros
Circus. 1t was just the same attrac-
ton for the children as ever and staid
men and women hustled around as
of yore to find some ones children
to take, if they had none of their own,
just to have an excuse for going. The
parade, advertised to take place at
10 o'clock a. M, kept the crowd wait
ing on the streets until after II
o'clock, which is an advertising trick
played by every circus and it works
like charm to draw out larger
crowds to the big tent.
The parade had its merits and de-
merits but withal very satisfactory.
The seating capacity of the big tent
was taxed to its fullest extent and
there was a good crowd in the even
ing. The circus was considerably
smaller than when here previously,
having only two small rings and a
cage in the center in which trained
lions were put through all kinds of
stunts by their trainer. The perform
ance throughout was good and those
in charge, were courteous and did all
they could to please the public.
The tents were raised inside of the
race track on the fair grounds, which
makes it an ideal place for an event
of this kind, besides the shade of the
large pines at the north were very
inviting for picnic parties and for
parking Of automobiles, of those who
came in from the country.

LOGGING CAMP TACTICS
DON'T co WITH UNCLE SAM

A soldier asking for his time" with
the explanation that he wanted to Quit
is the amusing incident reported from
the Crandon company, of which Leo
Sehoenhofen of this city, is captain.
The fellow was lumberjack and
evidently under the impression that
Uncle Sam runs things the same as in
private life, releasing and paying off
men per demand. He was informed
that his pay would be Forthcoming
on pay day, but that he will have to
stick to his job until his agreement
for time of services is fulfilled-three
years.-Marshfield News.

MRS. JOHN III. JOICE OFFERS HER
THREE SONS TO THE NATION

The following article was taken
from the Chicago Daily News. The
Joice family were residents of Wau-
sau in 1882, and Mr.. Joice was book
keeper and teller Of the First Ma
tional bank and the oldest son was
born here. After remaining here for
a number of years, the family went
to Wells, Mimi, in which city Mr..
Joice started a bank, viz:
Mrs. John H. Joice, 1929 Magnolia
avenue, has offered her all to the
nation, that the kaiser may be de-
feated. Her three sons have made ap-
plication for admission to the second
officers training camp at FIT. Sheri-
dan. The three young men are all
on the uneasy seat, for they
will be given notifications of their ac-
ceptance or rejection. The oldest son,
Earl H. Joice, who is SO years of
age, has made application for admis-
son to the camp because he feels
that, though he is not subject to
the draft of the government, he is
still answerable to CONSUMPTION of his
conscience. Clyde NJ Joice and j.
Maxwell Joice, the two younger sons,
feel they would have to wait too long
to get into the conflict if they waited
for their draft numbers to be called.
Maxwell has been corporal in the
R. o. 7. c., at the University of Chi
cago since it was first organized last
spring. Mrs. Joice said today that she
was proud of her sons for their pa
triotism. Only mother can under
stand how l feel about my boys pre-
pairing to go away she said. I want
them to do their full share of service
to the nation. l couldn't endure 1t if
| felt they were shirkers. This thought
alone helps me to forget that there
is such a possibility that they may
never come back"

early date, if nossible Fortunately
the consummation of the levee work
required in Plan No. will not
preclude the adoption of any of the
other plans in the future should it
be decided to do so and the work
already accomplished would not be
lost, since it would be a required
part of any of the other plans.
The government report goes into
detail explaining the necessity and
cost of maintenance for drainage
bitches and bikes. The engineers
advise that a single drainage district
be formed to handle the work of the
whole territory to be reclaimed and
that the governing body consist Of
a board of commissioners, an engi-
neer and an attorney. They suggest
that the commissioners be empowered
to levy the assessments for each
unit of the drainage district in pro-
portion to the cost of the improve
ments needed in that unit. Under
chis plan each unit would pay only
for rs actual improvements plus its
proportionate share of the legal, en-
gineerng and commissioners eX-
renses. Also, say the engineers,
should it be decided to construct a
hydroelectric power plant to furnish
power for the pumping plants, this
could be arranged by a single large
organization while considerable diff
ficulty might arrive were it at
tempted under a plan Of separate
organizations for the various dis
tricts.

The report of the government en-
gineers on flood control and the
drainage of the Kootenai valley, ar
rived here last week, the first copy
having been sent to Representative
A. ]. Kent, and the fact that the
report was a favorable one and that
the engineers had recommended GER
tain plans of drainage was soon the
topic of conversation all over town.
For many months those most in
terested in the drainage of the Koote-
mai valley have been idle concerning
reclamation plans, waiting for the
government report. If the report
was unfavorable, if the government
engineers deemed the project I'M
feasible, then the Kootenai valley
another century great flat of rich
est soil yielding but a fiftieth part
of what it should because there was
no way in which to keep off it each
spring the flood waters from Can
adam mountains.
Those who have spent the most
Ilf1e SIuUNlIlR IiG ltCldbldIAOli lOJONS
have felt at all times that the gov
eminent report would be favorable
one. Now that their expectations
have been realized it is believed that
drainage plans may be formulated
along the lines suggested by the
government and that real work may
be started and that the project will
have the entire confidence of every
&c nffnRfad
by the drainage of the kootenal
bottoms.
There is no one project or group
Of interests which if completed ac-
cording to expectations, could pos
sibly mean more to every man,
woman or child in Boundary county
than the drainage of the Kootenai
valley. 1t is not possible for the
lavman to realize what would re-
suit in the way of prosperity for
this district if the landowners were
assured. year after year, that they
might plant to crops of all kinds
the 10000 acres of bottom lands
along the Kootenai river, and that
the waters of the Kootenai would be
kent within the banks of the river
One thing is certain that lands
which now sell for $40 and $15 pei
acre would bring 5000 and $3OO
Land that now produces wild hay
would be sowed to wheat and oats
and for years the silt soil deposited
here would produce phenomenal crops
Engineer after engineer has IN
vestigated and reported upon thu
feasibility of draining the Kootena
valley. The report of the govern
ment engineers, submitted after
most thorough examination and re
search, should now convince the mos
skeptical.
The report for the government wa
prepared under the direction of 5. h

cations, U. S. department of agrl
