JOHN ROBINsON's CIRCUS
HERE NEXT MONDAY

John Robinson IS Circus was founded
in Utica, N Y in 1924 and has been
on the road continuously every season
since that time.
Year after year John Robinson went
out with his circus and year after
year he made it larger and more pre-
tentious. Finally he loaded it onto flat
boats and towing the craft with wood
burning steamboats, journeyed from
place to place along the Ohio, Ken
lucky and Mississippi rivers. He was
the first to use boats as a method of
transportation and was also first to
use the steam railroads. His trip to
marked an epoch in the circus business.
John Robinson was the first to dis
card the old time dirt ring and replace
it with wooden curbs, of the kind now
in general use. He was first to abolish
coal oil illumination and use gasoline
and first to light his tent by electric
ltyi generated III MS oWh iiaNeiihS
plant And John Robinson was also
the first circus owner to open his show
with spectacle. His initial effort
along this line was called, liking Sol
onion and the Queen of Sheba" Old
time residents of the United States
will readily recall this spectacle which
was wonderful production in its
day.
John Robinson was progressive as
well as aggressive and possessed n long
head for business He was then as his
descendants are now, a leader in ev-
erything. 1t will be remembered that
the first position the famous old clown
Dan Rice. had was with John Robin
son and he was succeeded in the hearts
of the people by John Lowlow.
Other circuses were started Some
succeeded-many others failed John
Robinson kept on, each year adding
marvellous innovations and each year
making money. Finally, shortly after
the civil war, the grand old man of
circusdom passed to his reward and his
place was taken by his eldest son,
John Robinson, who is now retired and
lives in a palatial home amid the beau
tiful hills of old Cincinnati. John G

The Paper Shortage.

The remedy proposed by the
American Paper and Pulp Asso-
citation at its annual convention
in New York to meet the short
age in the nations paper supply
discloses clearly the basic rea-
son for the present situation.
Reforestation and conservation
of timber are recommended as
the key to the solution of the
problem. The corollary is that
the scarcity Of paper may be at
tributed to forest devastation
and the omission to replant a
timber crop in land that has
been denuded of its tree growth.
In course of time cheap hydro
electric energy, an essential in
the establishment of a pulp fac
tory, will enable the paper man
ufacturers to make use of the
vast supplies of virgin spruce in
Alaska, Washington and Oregon.
This will provide relief, although
there will be transportation diff
ficulties involved. Freight charg-
es in transporting paper or pulp
from such a distance will make
the Northwest a less satisfac-
tory source of supply for a great
majority of publishers. There
fore the soundest plan in the
long run to meet the problem is
to grow pulp wood close at hand
on lands now idle which are not
suitable for agriculture or other
purposes.
The American Paper and Pulp
Association has proposed a SEN
sible, far-sighted method of solv-
ing the paper problem. Trees
are slow of growth; years will
elapse before seedlings now set
out will be ready for the pulp
factory. The more reason, then,
why the problem of reforesta-
ton should be started at once.
To provide for future paper
needs, the vast tracts of desert
land throughout the country,
particularly in the mountainous
regions, should be planted in
forests. The experience we are
even now undergoing contains
a suggestion of the penalty that
will pay if we defer apply
inv the remedy to the paper
trouble.

Census inaccuracies.

AS populations are being an
nounced complaints are heard
that the census was inaccurately
and carelessly taken. Such
charges may be we'll founded. or
otherwise. Cities that are dis
appointed in the population gain
as shown by the count might
naturally be disposed to lay the
situation to carelessness on the
part of the enumerators. Where
rivalry exists between urban
communities the loser in a con-
test for population seeks an ex-
cuse and to charge that there
were gross errors in the count
offers an explanation. On the
other hand padding. the census
is not unknown, though just
what is gained by resorting to-
that is not apparent.
To claim that a city has a
greater population than it actu-
ally possesses does not make It
better in which to live and car
ry on business. Size is by no
means the only standard bv
which a city should be Judged.
though its enterprise and re-
sources are likely to be guaged
by its growth from decade to
decade on the principle that a
live town grows, a dead one
stands still.
Since war work gave a great
boost to those cities in which.
the manufacture of munitions
was carried on to the greatest
extent, it is natural that cities
which failed to participate in
that industry. should suffer in
comparison, and to this may be
due the disparity between what
the citizens thought the census
should show and what it does
show.
That there are inaccuracies in
the census is doubtless true. It
would be too much to expect
that it were otherwise. but those
who believe it grossly inaccurate
will have to present tangible ev-
idence in support of their case.
Errors and omissions are likely
to be pretty generally distribut-
ed and to affect about all alike.
