DREAMLAND.

Recent fall bookings for Dream
land comprise some of the biggest at
fractions that have been shown in
this city. An early October booking
is the sensational war film drama,
"CrashingIThru to Berlin" which will
be shown at the Strand Theatre in
Minneapolis in connection with the
Fourth Liberty Loan drive, the first
week in October and at Dreamland the
same week. Another big attraction
for October is the dramatization eof
Robert w. Chambers famous novel,

having the same name. This is an
exceedingly timely story, the scene
laid in France early in the present
war, and the film being of the really
high class productions of the past
year. The leading part is played by
dainty Anita Stewart, and her leading
man is S. Rankin Drew, who, upon
the completion of the picture, entered
an officers training camp, secured
his commission, and was in the first
American Expeditionary Force, parti-
cipated in the early fighting in France,
and offered the supreme sacrifice Of
his life, his death occurring while
leading charge lover the top" in one
of the first attacks made by the Ameri-
cans.
Other notable October bookings are
1.-THE Romance of Tarzan"; Charlie
i Chaplin in "Shoulder Arms" a five
reel Chaplin, showing Charlie as a
soldier in the trenches Norma Tai
madge will be seen in her latest pic
ture, "The Tale of Forbidden City,"
IN which she has part first as a lit
ls Chinese girl and later as a nurse;

COUNTY FAIR NOTES

Clearing skies today augur well for
the county fair. Threatening weather
yesterday no doubt discouraged many
who had expected to bring stock and

much about the other exhibits. The
Sunnyside Farm Club is on hand for
a booth in spite of all handicaps in the
way of. shortage of help. The main

place.

going to war. The Raymond band has
many members in the service, but
are making strenuous efforts to keep
up their organization to be on hand
when the boys come back.

Editor, Tribune:
Will send you line today and can
say that am feeling pretty good. We
have been here a week now. Our
Camp is located twenty-five miles
from New York and is used to equip
troops for overseas. They also build
aeroplanes at the Curtiss Factory and
when they give them a trial, there is
some noise in the air. Have counted
as high as sixty-four machinessi lin the
air at one time, flying over the clouds,
looping the loop, making figure eight,
etc.
We also had a twenty-fo hour pass
so we were. given the opportunity of
seeing New York City and it sure is
some city but not kept as clean as our
Minnesota cities.
1t took us three days and three
nights on our trip here from Camp
Robinson, Wis Were given exercise
twice; the Red Cross was on hand to
treat us at the stations.
The days here are very nice but
the nights are damp and cold, espe-
cially to sleep in tents. We do not
expect to stay here long as we, no
doubt, will 60 across soon. Do not
carry guns any more in this regiment,
will soon get As CAL pistols. I CHANGED
to meet Ansgar Lundquist here. He
is in the Machine Gun Company. He
told me there were many Of the other
boys who left with me at this place
but have not been lucky enough to
run across them yet. We carry all
our things in our pack, which weighs
Al lbs. It consists of clothes for cold
weather, extra food in case we should
need some, etc. ..:- :.
