.JULESBURG BOOSTERS
MAKE CIRCLE TRIP TO
ADVERTISE COUNTY FAIR

bee-line was made for the enter
prising town of Haxtun. Upon
reaching Haxtun the Boosters pro-
ceeded to get busy and told the Hax-
tunites all about the big fair with
music and a talk by G. H. Austin,
who had by this time worked into the
,pale of official announcer. Then from
'Haxtun nne trip across country was
made back into Sedgwick county and
% Sedgwick. Although the citizens
of the west end of the county prob
ably knew all about the fair, the
music by the band and the announce
ment made by Mr.. Austin was an
impressive reminder that Sedgwick
county was getting ready to stage the
biggest fair in history, and that Jules
burg extended a cordial welcome to
the citizens of Sedgwick to attend.
Leaving Sedgwick the Boosters
journeyed to Chappell, the last place
on the schedule. Here our Nebraska
neighbors soon realized that there
were visitors in town, the band play
ing number of selections, and Mr..
Austin finished up the day by telling
them all about the fair. Owing to
the bad conditions of the roads the
Boosters thought it advisable not to
visit Ovid, so the return trip to Jules
burg was made, arriving home about
$50 o'clock, tired bunch, but new
ertheless conscious that some real ad-
vertising for the fair and Julesburg
had been accomplished. They were
real Boosters, every last one of them,
and good congenial bunch.

Sixteen world war veterans from
one post of the American Legion in
Tulsa, Okla, have settled upon gov
ernment homestead land in Scott
county, Southern Arkansas. By cold
weather, it is estimated that 100 ex-
service men will have taken claims on
the land.
The territory which will become a
settlement of world war service men,
the first in America, stretches over
$500 acres, composed Of adjoining in
dividual tracts of 160 acres each. The
men have to live on the land but sew
en- months before it becomes their pro-
perty as Arkansas gives residence
credit to soldiers up to two years of
army or navy service.
Part of the men will spend the win
ter on their land, clearing timber,
building, hunting and trapping, for
the tracts abound in deer. fox and
lynx. The sixteen who have already
settled are preparing to establish a
central trading point and town which
they will name "Legionnaire." Four
of the pioneers are married and all
have had farming experience. Home
steading is now possible in the fol-
lowing other states: Washington, New
Mexico, Michigan, Montana, Arizona,

 FOR HELP EXTENDED
Hx Associated Press

Berlin, April 29-The thanks of the German people for the relief afforded them through the American relief ad- ministration is expressed in a letter which President Ebert sent on April to Herbert Hoover, as chairman of the re- lief administration.
 Ut is with regret that learn the American relief administration has de- cided to cease the sale of food tickets and the distribution of food packages at the end of April" the President wrote. With this the work of sincere philan- thropy which you created In EuropeS s most troubled days comes to an end.
 'I feel compelled to express to you on this occasion the sincere thanks of the German nation for the help which you brought to numerous distressed families and the mothers and children of Ger many. Through your admirable organ ization you have shown the way in which the feelings of charity which prevailed In the American nation could be put into practice The German nation will not forget the great work of charity which became known throughout the world un- der your name.
 "The bonds of humanity which in times of most grevous distress were woven by the charitable acts of the nations will grow ever stronger and will contribute toward promoting mutual international understanding and help bring about the world rehabilitation so urgently required,
 By collaborations in this constructive activity YOU have rendered a service that will long survive the period of your organization. I gladly take this oppor- tunity to express to you the assurance If my highest esteem.
