FIRST CIRCUS OF THE
YEAR.
A Days Work for the Ad.
vance Agent Who Signs
Fourteen Contracts.

Al. G.. Barnes big four ring
wild animal circus well remem
bered here for its splendid exhibits
IN the past Is trouping this way.
The two big trains containing 1900
performing animals and GOO peo
pie, aud hundreds of thousands OF
dollars worth of equipment will
arrive in New Iberia on Wednes
day, October 2, and give two ex
hlbits here beginning with a big
two mile long parade in the morn
ing.
First OF the advance men for the
show to arrive is Mr.. f. A. Cassi
dy, contract agent whose duty II
is to look after supplies necessary
for putting the big show "Over.'
Today he signed up II contracts,
including food stutfs for men and
beasts, and to provide eating
places for three sets of billpostors
who will soon be on the ground
covering every available place
with red, blue and yellow posters,
and decorating the countryside
that can be reached by rail and
automobile.
To feed the hungry billposters
the agent contracted for meals q,
80 cents apiece. Mr.. Cassidy con
tracted for several tons OF hay;
more than 1000 pounds Of oats,
several tons of straw for bedding
the animals, and bran for the
mush eating animals. A supply
Of 800 loaves Of bread was con
tracted and water supply for the
show arranged for. Contracts
were placed with the city bill
poster for special stands and the
show folks do the work. Livery
rigs and autos for the billposters
were provided and all told the
Snowman signed IL contracts IN
one day and counted it a fairly
good days work. He signed up
for the circus lot. city license, wa
ter, livery, hotels, billboard space,
newspaper advertising, bread, food
for animals and people, provided
for the unloading and loading OF
the show, and laid out the route
from the railroad to the sho "
grounds.
According to the circus man, the
A. G.. Barnes show will spend
more than $1,000 in New Iberia for
supplies of various kinds which is
a goodly amount for an animal
show. The Barnes Circus is pri
marily an animal circus. The
people are there only as aides 10
putting the educated anima als
through their PAGES. Each ami
nal is scientifically educated to do
some skilled circus feat. There
are both human and animal clowns
big spectacles-aDd the usually y
or rather the unusually big street
parade-fOr Al. Il. Barnes shows
all open dens OF wild animals In
the parade and has real music
along with the jazz bands.

THE FOURTH LIBERTY
LOAN

The campaign for the Fourth
Liberty Loan begins September 2S
and closes October 10 While the
amount has not yet been an
nounced, it is generally conceded
it will be for larger amount than
any of the preceding loans. The
American people, therefore, are
called upon to raise q larger sum
of money in shorter length of
time than ever before. There il
need, therefore, for prompt action
prompt and efficient work and
prompt and liberal subscriptions
We have great inspiration for
agIeat effort. The news from the
battle front inspires every Ameri.
can heart, not only with pride and
patriotism but with u great incen-
tive to do his or her part. There
is no shirkiDg, no shifting Of the
individual burden, no seliishness
by American soldiers in France;
there should be none here. We
are both supporting the same
country and the same cause our
Army in one way, ourselves in an
other. Theirs is the harder part,
but at least we can do our part as
promptly and Loyalty and efficient
ly AZ they do theirs.

THE OPENING OF

Of this event, marking a new
epoch in the intellectual develop
ment Of this community, can

ing blessed with prophetic vision.
Ii brings the advantages Of q co..
legiate education to the homes OF
the young men of this section of

they could not en- joy without the
expenditure Of almost prohibitlve
sums of money.
In times like these, when the
country is making q desperate ef-
fort to send undreamed of millions
Of men and treasure to the front to
arrest the threatened progress of
autocracy, 1t Is wonderful that
such a good showing has been &C
cOmpllshed in both means for the
equipping of the undertaking and
the initial enrolment Of students
for the occupancy OF the class
rooms. For the success of this
worthy undertaking this entire
section is deeply indebted to the

ergy and steadfastness Of purpose

loan appeal to the heart correctly,

the equality Of opportunity, which
q 100 per cent. American can moi
rnfron
