CIRCUS HAS own
ELECTRIC PLANT
RinglingviIIe Carries Specially Con-
structed Lighting Apparatus in
Immense Wagons.
Is SPOT LIGHTS ON THE STAGE
One Set of Is X. w. Lights Enough
to Light Village Of 1900
Inhabitants.

There are among present day circu
patrons those who recollect when tn
first incandescent light was exhibited
by tent shows as a much ADVERTISED
feature of their program. Swung ov
er the center ring was wire ant
from it hung lone globe. At the
close of the races a converted fire en-
CINE was brought into the ring. AT
ter much putting and snorting the en-
CINE would manage to generate enough
Juice to cause the globe to give
forth faint glow.
That was in the early SOS and was
the first electric light offered by the
circus. Today electricity is one OF
the remarkable features of the Ring
ling Bros. circus. 1t is not billed" as
part Of the program yet it is here
there and everywhere about the show
grounds. The great tents that are tC
be pitched here August 9th are equip
ped with their own power plant, self
contained and portable, and each night
they are a revelation in resplendent
electric illumination.
The apparatus consists of three rs
k w. sets, manufactured by the Gen
eral Electric company especially for
the purpose. One set of this size is
sufficient to serve as plant for an
entire village Of about 1900 inhabi
tants, including residential, store and
street lighting. A set is actually per-
forming this service in Lewis, Iowa;
Z },o ~, Ir,n
Texas; in Perry, Ga; in Metropolis.
New, and in Dixville Notch, N. H.
Six 25-empere spot lights are used
for the great stage on which the NAM
moth circus spectacle and ballet I'm
Days of Old" is presented, and rows
Of incandescent lamps are operated
by this plant, supplementing the thir-
tysix arc lamps in the biggest tent.
IA supply wagon carries several pow
erful electric searchlights, which are
directed to different parts of the show
grounds when nocturnal preparations
for departure begin. The system
makes it possible to paraphrase the
old smile, "And the lion and the lamb
shall lie down together into THE
lion and the lamp shall lie down to-
gether," for in each of the circus cages
that contains wild animals there are
two clusters of 80 candle power lamps,
three to cluster.
Instead of the dimly lighted cage in
which the wild beast was seen in a
shadowy outline, asleep, in former
days, the. animal now is observed
awake, alert and in every detail and
action Identical as by day-a real
boon to those whom necessity or in
clination causes to visit the circus by
night.

THE BURY THE HAMMER CLUB.

~ 0O ! tIFNIWN -h ~ ~ 49,
At the last meeting one of our men,
bers reported the experience in his
old home town, where he had just at
tended an old home week celebra-
ton. A splendid program was an
nOunced. But one unfortunate occur
renee took place. The managers de-
cided to hold their final jollitication
In grove six miles from the town.
That queered the whole thing with
the merchants. They threw cold wa
ter on the celebration from the start,
because they feared a little trade
would be drawn from their stores that
afternoon. AS consequence of their
hostile attitude the thing was prac-
tically a failure.
v Even admitting it was mistake to
70 out for a short distance, how much
better it would have been for those
merchants to have co-operated. The
result was that the committee of pub
lie spirited people who had put lot
Of work into the thing got disguised
and said they would do nothing more
for any public cause. The whole town
was thrown into a ferment.
Denison has its knockers, but for
tunately the hammer was never WELD
~ Is that extent here. But such oc-
c,Irrences elsewhere are warning to
critics that when community move
& ant II started, it is better to work
With 1t than against It, III,

Morgan City Responded To
Appeal Of The Third Liber-

1t the conclusion Of the speaN IS
Program at the Liberty Loan Train
Sunday morning. an appeA. was
made for a practical demonstration
Of the enthusiasm which had been
otherwise expressed by the crowd
during the remarks Of the speakers.
This demonstration must take the
form of subscription to a Liberty
Loan Bond
That Morgan City is always glad
to demonstrate when the issue is rails
ed was clearly evidenced by the re-
suits speedily obtained. Under the
leadership of Parish Char Hood and
Morgan City Chairman Bass, $780,
900 worth of bonds were sold. Off
Gals were highly pleased as most
of the bonds were subscribed by in
dividuals of small means, consequent
ly the total amount sold, represent
ed a large number Of bonds.

Til 1T Stamp Prize Won By
Maurice Coons Of Patter-
son

Announcement of prize winners
and the winning compositions in the
recent statewide essay contest OF
schools on eve should Buy War
Savings Stamps" is made by Super
intendent T. H. Harris, from his Of
fees in Baton Rouge.
Maurice Coons of the Patterson
s,;gh School, son of 0. A. Coons of
ah2t city, won the prize OF $25 sub
nisted for high school pupils.
The winning essay follows:
''In all wars, heretofore, there
have been more men killed by lack
Of supplies than by the enemy's bull
lets. The Red Cross is attending to
the care of those men very ably. We
must not let our men die from lack
of supplies, but they certainly will
unless we raise large sum of mon
ey Immediately to buy supplies with
and build enough ships to carry these
supplies across the ocean.
.'The thrift stamp system is the
greatest systems Of savings ever
placed before the American people.
It enables people who have not the
money to buy Liberty bond to help
the government and also to help
themselves. This is nation of no.
100000 people, and we are the
wealthiest people on the globe, but
our saving per capita is only $10.56,
while Germany's saving, per capita,
is $86.OS.
THE American people have al
ways been very extravagant and
there has never been any national
necessity to save. But now it is ab-
solutely necessary for each individ-
ual to save all he can if we expect to
see the war end with the Allies VIC
torious. The American people must
learn the value Of dollar, and they
must learn to be able to withstand
the temptation to spend that dollar.
Most of the American people live III
comparative ease and take very liz
tie exercise, and unless some OF
this extravaganza and laziness is
stopped, the entire nation will deter
iorate physically, mentally, morally
and financially, just as the Roman
people did.
''Never before in the worlds his
toryl has democracy been so threat
ened, never has it been called on tc
stand so severe trial. And it is
America that has to lead; America
who must feed devastated Belgium
and France; America who must sup
ply the Allies with guns and ammu.
