Success OF Victory Liberty Loan
Drive.

The quota of Delaware County in
the Victory Liberty Bond Drive which
opens Monday, April 21st and con-
cludes, Saturday night, May 10th, will
be $S6S, ,425.O07, according to an an
nouncement just received from John
4. Cavanaugh, of Des Moines, Chair
man of the Quota Committee for Iowa.
Mr.. Cavanaugh adds some interesting
tacts in regard to previous loans.
The quota of Iowa for the four pre-
ceeding Liberty Bond issuances was
1898, 100000 The State subscribed
$393,O93.150. The total number Of
subscribers was 1,642,000. The over
subscription in the four previous loans
amounted to $54,593,15O, a greater
sum than was asked altogether of the
State in the first campaign. In the
last two campaigns $4,000 and 664,-
900 people subscribed. The average
1r the four campaigns was 410,500
subscribers or one for Derry family.
Iowa is thus 100 per cent perfect in
the Oatter of family subscriptions
in all four bond campaigns. Iowa
,versubscribed the second and fourth
loans ten per cent. It oversubscribed
he third loan sixty per cent. Mr..
1avanaugh is hopeful that Iowa will
surpass the oversubscription record
4 the second and fourth loans in the
coming drive.
With Iowa producing farm crops
asst year to the value of almost one
'llion dollars and with prospects good
for another big agricultural year. Mr..
Cavanaugh is confident that the gov
ernment's fifth and last appeal for
funds will meet with hearty and
generous response from Iowa, First
over the top" in two bond campaigns
already.

THREE RINGED CIRCUS COMING
TO MANCHESTER.
Yankee Robinson is to Show Here
Tuesday, April 10Th.

A real three ringed circus is COM
ing to town, with wise lions and tigers
trained leopards, jaguars, polar bears,
troops of clamor let loose between the
thrills. "4
The Yankee Robinson Wild Animal
Circus which is coming to Manchester
on Tuesday, April 29th, is huge and
grand and new enough to warrant
the very highest of praise.
Every one will laugh at the caper-
ing clowns, gasp at the feature acts
and shudder at the sensations crowd
ed together into two hours and a
half
The biggest and most daring of
he wild animal acts is the perform
ance of Capt. Jules with his mixed
group of natural born jungle en-
emies including lions tigers, jaguars,
pumas and the trained camels and
zebras. Jus to add good measure to
the performance it is interspersed
with a score or more of high class
stars of the arenic world.
OF course there are clowns and
thirty of them will surely make you
laugh, if you have one stored away
in you. An Athletic Carnival is one
Of the seasons big features and it is
headed by no less a parsonage than
Plestina, Worlds Champion Wrestler
who will meet all comers at each
performance forfeiting one hundred
dollars to any man he cannot win a
fall from in fifteen minutes.
Altogether the wonderful program
presented under the "big top" of the
Yankee Robinson Circus will give
pleasure to big and small.
