So far Lettie had merely changed
her allegiance and her boarding place !;
the routine Of her days had not been
disturbed. The lust for loot was in
her blood and now that she was well
treated and well fed, 1t had become a
sort of frenzy. She knew little about
putting gratitude into speech, having
always employed that medium for
vastly different purposes. The more
thankful Lettie felt. the higher grew
the heaps Of rubbish in Mrs. Penfield's
back yard.
AS another savage collects his beads
and blankets, so this one collected the
superfiuities of human living, the by
products of organization and reorgani-
zation, the driftwood that eddied in
from the wrecking of many households
Mrs. Penfield, tolerating the instinct OF
acquisitiveness in Drink as a more or
less natural phase of boyhood under
stress, was frankly dismayed over the
far stronger trait In Lettie, and she
looked forward to the time when she
could fill the childs life with other
interests. Only in such wise could she
effect a change, because a vacuum in
occupation would have drawn from
Lettie the adherence which it de-
serves. And surely in few months,
clothes could be accumulated and book
money saved. so that it would be pos
sible to send the child to school.

accompaniment Of mixed sound, rasp-

BAND CONCERT DATE

Postponed Six Days on Ac.
count of Chautauqua
at Sandstone.

The next free open air band
concert to be given by the COM
bined Sandstone and Askov
bands will be at Askov on Friday
evening, July 20. commencing at
$50 o'clock.
This concert was announced in
last weeks American to have
been held on Saturday evening,
July II, but on account of the
big chautauqua in Sandstone at
that time-entertainment which
many will want to attend-it was
thought better to postpone the
band concert until July 20. Note
that the concert is to be held on
a Friday evening this time. This
is being done SO that it will not
interfere with the school election
on the evening of the 21st-Sat-
urday-and also to try out anoth-
er evening to see if that works
out as well or better.

Willow River Street Oiled.

The coating of oil applied to
the streets where auto traffic is
heaviest had an immediate effect
in allaying the clouds of dust
raised by every passing car. With
the long spell of dry weather pre-
ceding the recent rains. the con-
dition on the front street was
well nigh intollerable. With a
dust bath for each of the hun
dreds of cars passing each day
we had a flock of chickens in an
ash heap beat a dozen ways. The
state might oil the entire road
and save money. Pine County

performing horses accompanied
by Europe's greatest trainer and
many wild animals. some of
which have been added to the
scores upon scores of trained
jungle beasts, while others have
become part of the marvellous
menagerie.
More than a million persons
saw the mammoth new circus of
1923 during the weeks that it ex-
hibited in Madison Square Gar
den, New York. Now this mar
velous exhibition is touring the
country aboard FIVE great trains.
1t is a third bigger than the Ring
ling Brothers and Barnum &
Bailey show of last season. 1t
is ten times larger than any
other circus now on tour.
Big as is this wonder circus of
1923-with its more than thirty
trained wild animal displays in
steel arenas, fully 200 wonder
fully schooled horses. 700 men
and women performers, 100
clowns and many features-the
price of admission is no more
than before. And though the
trained animal numbers and the
immense horse show were cir
cuses in themselves while touring
Europe, they are not offered as
separate attractions by the Ring
ling Brothers and Barnum & Bal
ley combined shows. Instead all
are on one gigantic program.
Everything is in one mammoth
main tent. One ticket admits to
all these and to the tremendous
double menagerie. There are
more than a thousand animals in
the ZOO of this circus and these
include entire families of hippo
potami and giraffes. Another
remarkable geological feature is
an armored rhinoceros, the only
one known to exist and alone
worth $50, 900.
