Six Reasons Against
Destruction Of Trees

greens are things OF beauty the

=. Trees protect the traveller in
summer from the hot rays OF the
sun.
:. Trees protect the traveller in
winter from the cold winds.
I. Trees protect the concrete
roads from the sudden change In
temperature and thus prevent
bl!sterins and cracking.
3. The roots Of large trees alb
sorb the moisture and thus keep
the bitches dry.
6. Trees add to the value Of
property. and trees along the road
lines attract the possible pur-
chaser.

AUTO POLO THRILLS
ONLOOKERS ALWAYS

Auto Polo is classed as the most
dangerous and thrilling sport known
to daredevil Americans.
Steel demons, stripped for the fray,
dash at each other like enraged tigers.
Collisions, side swipes, tirnovers, tail
spins and other thrilling occurrences
come so thick and so fast that the
hearts Of observers jump into their
throats. so to speak.
The players are often thrown high
into the air, dashed to the ground, run
over. and then are picked up beaten
and battered like vanQuished gladi-
ators. only to be resuscitated and
patched up by the surgeons who are
kept close at hand.
Exciting things happen so fast that
it's almost too much for the most
modern movie machine to catch.
Every day these exciting scenes will
be witnessed at the Colorado State
Fair. September 20 to 80, 1921.
