will also be made to recruit a mass
church choir from among the local

services win be attended by a capacity

pastor of the canvas church and owns
the distinction of being the only pastor
travelling with carnival company and
conducting services for the 600 employ
es of the show.
Regarding DR. Waddell, the follow
ing is learned from a Virginia paper
which said:
The atmosphere here was stirred
today by Doc Waddell, circus evangel-
ist. who is pastor of the canvas church
with Dodson's worlds fair shows, that
are to exhibit here all this week and
at Ely the week of July g. The First
Presbyterian church was packed to
hear him People came from all near
towns Most Of the 500 show folk with
the Dodson caravan were present and
cheered their religious leader in his
brave efforts to break down the barrier
between public and show people He
delivered his famous "Sawdust and
Spangles" sermon, that is slated for a
tour over the Chatauqua circuits A
special song service was enjoyed, and

REAL INVENTOR OF FAMOUS
WEAPON STILL IN DISPUTE.

There are certain weapons which
are so inseparably a part Of the
pioneer history of this country as to
be virtually trademarks of the from
tier. One of these was the Bowie
knife. There is not much doubt as to
whose name it bears man whom
all Texans honor berauSe of his heroic
death at the Alamo But who was the
inventor Of the Bowie knife? Texas
claims that honor, but Arkansas dis
putes that claim And after all the
years which have passed since this
terrible weapon first made its appear
ance, the dispute is still unsettled
There's an interesting story back OF
it all Read about it in the Ilustated
feature article who Invented the
Bowie Knife?" by Elmo Scott Watson

SUPERIOR FOREST
GETS LARGE SHARE

The Superior National Forest will
receive large sum from an appro-
priation of 81, 100000 set aside by the
government for cooperative fire pro-
lection according to an announcement
made early in the week by Congress
man w. A. Pittinger of this district.
The appropriation set aside by the
government for this purpose was in
creased by 500, 900 this year in order
TO insure more adequate fire protec-
ton The fund is operated by the
United States Forestry Department
under a ruling made in the Clark
McNary Act of 1924 The govern
ment's appropriation for adequate fire
protection, according to Congressman
Pittenger, is one of cooperation with
the individual states in curbing tire
mendous losses of money and property
from devastating forest fires. This fund
is also applied for the protection of
privately owned tracts of timber.
The costs of this protection are met
by a three way division; the Federal
government, the states and private
owners 1t was specified in the bill
that the states must contribute at
least an equal amount appropriated by
the government for this purpose.
Congressman Pittenger's Office, after
making a survey reports that most
states having large timber areas are
now cooperating with the government.
This survey included Minnesota and
the Superior National Forest. Increas-
ed support however is needed accord
ing to the Congressman, in order to
bridge the enormous gap between pro-
tected and unprotected areas.
