CIRCUS HERE
Sslls-FIoto Circus Kntertains Big
Crowds and PIsasss
Everybody.

Tuesday was certainly circus day in
Lamar and from the arrival Of the
first train about 7;50 In the morning
until the last load was stored away
at night big crowds enjoyed every fea-
turc Of the work. All the big and little
boys from IS TO 8 Ia town we're out
In the morning to see the unloading
process and watch the big elephants
do a hundred mems work IN moving
the heavy pieces around. A constant
stream Of wagons pulled by some Of
the finest looking horses ever seen
here and assisted also BY a big war
truck were utilized in hauling the i'm
mense paraphernalia TO the grounds
on South Fifth atreet-just south Of
the high school building. II was hard
for any size boy TO keep at work while
this part Of the program yas going
on and when the big parade struck
Main street about II 30 in the morn
ing there was perfect jam for two
blocks north Of the railroad and three
houth-thouHandH OF people being lin
ed up for the big event.
Both the afternoon and evening
shows drew crowds that packed the
big tent to its capacity. and all were
well repaid for their trouble az II was
one Of the best circus performances
ever given in the valley. The manage
mcnt was 30 anxious to please that
they even went to the extent of sup
plying a special chaperone in evening
dress for some Of our leading men, and
"she" was very free with her conf
denccs and even kisses.
The whole program was clean, high
ly entertaining and Of the very highest
class OF skill. The wonderful group
Of monstrous and highly trained Gle
plants were alone worth more than
the admission price. Lamar has been
visited by many circuses but the Sells
Floto is the best Of the bunch.

W. f. Vaplon, of the Agricultural
College, state leader of Boys and
Girls clubs for Colorado, urgently re-
quests that every club member in the
state start now to save these fruit pits
and nut shells. Groeers and other
merchants are requested to set open
barrels in their stores where the pits
and shells may be deposited and ar
engagements will soon be announced
for their collection and shipment to the
proper points.
All children of the state are. of
course, privileged to help in this i'm

Seven pounds of nut shells or 200
peach pits will make a respirator for

In The Neck.

As predicted by The Register after
watching the utilities commissioners
In the so-called Lamar hearing the
commission has handed down decis-
ion awarding the Intermountain Rail-
way, Light e. Power Co. an increase
Of 20 per cent over their present ex-
horbitant Lamar prices. The time for
talk is now past /, and only action and
vigorous action at that will give our
city an opportunity to have an ac-
ccptable service and rates that are
even bcarably in proportion to other
places. There should be an immediate
organization Of citizens to see that the
use of electricity is curtailed to the
limit both on the part of the city and
individuals, and steps taken to pro-
vide for municipal plant as soon as
one can be erected. Lamar has been
dependent on q junk pile too long as

Nr. A 2. Seynore Of the See-so-

ing Of 2s.Oo0 feet Of lumber for the
big s5-foot derrick, which they will
erect IL rniles north Of Lamar on one
Of their many thousands Of acres Of
leases, the W. r. Mecue Mere. Co. Of
Lamar was found 70 be the best bidder
and the contract was accordingly
awarded 70 them They commenced
hauling out the lumber yesterday. and
work Will begin at once. Mr.. Sesmore
further informs Us that he in company
with Y. l.. Ziegler has sold 1900
shares Of stock in Lamar TO our bust
ness men and citizens in the last few
days. The price Of the stock will be
raised soon az that proportion set aside
70 sell at that fancy price is already
practically exhausted.
There is no basis for estimating the
help to Lamar should good well de-
velop on this tract, as a down hill pres
sure transportation line is the most
economical and effective way Of carry
ing the product. II this territory de-
yelopes Lamar cannot help but be the
center Of the industry in this section,
and all the other booms we have had
put together would not equal the one
which would develop at once with the
actual discovery Of oil on that tract
Of land.
Many local men are already inter
ested in the company and more are
joining every day as they learn the
real intention Of the promoters at the

PAINT USED LITERALLY
AT MERRILL THE PAST WEEK
BY PATRIOTIC FELLOWS

Last Wednesday night a number of
patriotic young men of Merrill got
together and trimmed up some of the
business places of that city with yell
low paint. The Chris. Solberg shoe
store had received a nice coat of
yellow during the night, indicating
in very plain and clear way the
spirit prevailing on the inside of this
place of business. The sign on the
German American State bank building
was also painted yellow, while the
word German" had been fixed up
in such way that it was almost un-
distinguishable. Besides the painting
of the Solberg store, signs had been
put on this building, which intimated
that the owner of the business favors
the Kaiser and Germany.
1t seems that Solberg, who is in the
draft age, married since this country
entered the war. The exemption board
of that city placed him in class one,
and he asked to be transferred into
class two or four. He later went to
the district board, asking to be placed
in class three, giving his reason for
so doing, that his father has a farm
near Merrill, and that he was engaged
in agricultural pursuits. The district
board had not acted upon his appeal,
but his number had been drawn, and
he had not been sent to camp.
