CIRCUS RISES
FROM TRAGEDY
TO AMUSE CROWD
Observation-Disclosures Perform
ers Mask Memories Under
Smiles, but Mourn Later.

BELOIT, Wis, June 26.--Like the
Phoenix Of fable the Hagenbeck- Wal
lace circus emerged from it's baptism
Of death and fire into the limelight
here last night with all the tinsel and
glare So dear to devotees of the big
top"
Except for what they had read in
the newspapers, the general public
was unable to tell that the big amuse-
ment enterprise had been all but
wiped out In one of the most disas-
trous wrecks Of railroad history. The
music. the calliope, the bright lights,
the clowns. the beautiful equestri-
ennes. and trapeze performers were all
there and the performance took place
with Characteristic SNAP and pep"
One Thing Felt.
There was only one thing lacking,
and this was vaguely felt, even by the
father of the family who bought seats
In the unreserved section. The spon-
taneity, the infectious gayety. and hap
py-go-lucky personality Of the per-
formers was overshadowed by sad
memories. The roustabouts. too, low
Hest surfs In the circus social world,
moved quietly about and were only
mildly profane.
There was no hysteria and weeping
among the performers. He1e was one

there a mother in silken tights and
bright tinsel who had lost a baby
daughter, but there were no tears.
Forced mirth under the big top was
courage and necessity. Ones work Is
ones work. II 1t happens that this
work is to make the kiddies laugh and
clap, why, then one must make the
Riddles laugh and clap.
Too Much for One.
II can't go on; can't go on"
"Old Bob" Cottrell cried It out as
he staggered into the dressing room
in his bespangled tights, fresh from
q thrilling act in the sawcust ring.
Cottrell was in the wreck at Ivanhoe
So was his wife. and wife's sister.
Louise Powell They three made up
the famous trio of equestrians.
But when dawn came that morning
at Ivanhoe the body Of Louise Powell
was taken from the wreck burned al
most to crisp.
Last night Bob Cottrell and his wife
essayed to 60 on with their act, with
a stranger taking the part Of Louise
Powell. Nerve, was not lacking In
their performance. The crowds ap-
plauded as usual and the bespangled
Cottrells flashed as recklessly from
horse to hore.
When the band struck up "Therell
Be Hot Time in the Old Town To-
night" 1t was the signal for Louise
Powell to do her special riding act.
Then 1t was that "Old Bob Cottrell
staggered Into the dressing room and
cried out:

the circus people as one Of the three

In order to meet the competition with secular institutions, and b. D. te

more than four times as great IS it al ten years ago, not to speak II the
increased number of friends. Yet there re urgent needs: necessities which
have arisen because of the schools growth in power and influence. Some
things the Board OF Trustees have felt compelled to go in debt for. 81 that
there is now an Indebtedness OF fifteen hundred dollars for equipment Inn
mediate pressing needs are certain repairs o. the dormitories, sewerage
system, electric lights. and seats in the lev auditorium.
In addition to individual friends there are three sources to which we
may confidently look for these necessary funds, viz: the Carolina Associa-
tons the TransylVania Association and the Home Mission Board. ~
In order to provide for these urgent needs recommend that this body
undertake to raise from the churches of the Carolina Association the sum
of two thousand dollars. and that the Pennsylvania Association be asked to
contribute at least thousand dollars, and the Home Board fifteen. hun
dred or more.

HELP WITH missionaries

The Local Exemption Board will
very soon begin mailing out ques-
tionaires to registrants under the
Draft Law. Arrangements will be
made by the Legal Advisory Board
for members or associate members
of their board to be in attendance
every week day during the neces-
sary period, at the city hall or codn-
ty court house, POSSIBLY both), to
assist in filling out the question
naires of such registrants as need
help.
TIE Legal Advisory Board urges
all registrants who need help to read
their questionaires thoroughly as
soon as they get them, and to get up
all dates, figures and other informa-
ton required, and to bring their
questionaires in at once, so that the
work can be kept up with, instead OF
accommodating and getting behind.
The registrants should come IL
prepared to answer without hesita
ton such questions as their exac
age, height and weight (stripped)
date and place of marriage, name
and ages of dependents, amount ex
pended on dependents during tn
past year, income for the past year
kind and value of property owned b,

are only some Of the questions. Re
gistrants should study all the ques-
tions, and be prepared to answer
them.
Special attention is called to the
fact that registrants are required to
state, the amount of taxes paid DUR
ing the, past year on real and per-
sonal property, separately. Their
tax receipts viii not show this, as
taxes on real and personal property
are paid as a whole. They win have
to ascertain from the tax list or the
tax collector what part of their taxes
was on real estate and what part
was on personal property. They
should by all means get up this in-
; formation before bringing in their
, questionaires to be filed out.
! By getting ready and coming IN
promptly, the work can be greatly
simpliied, and the registrants them
selves can be saved much delay and
+, waiting.
The Legal Advisory Board is ready
and willing to aid registrants who
need assistance, but the registrants
themselves should get up all neces-
sary information, so that there viii
be no unnecessary delay in filling
out the blanks.
