THE IDEAL CIRCUS
IS DOMING HERE
•'I hate to see a circus with so many
rings and acts. In a big show there is
so much to look at that one keeps bob -
bing one's head all over the big tent
with the result that one doesn’t see t
tenth of the performance. I should
rather attend an old-fashioned one
ring circus, where I can see every
thing well."
In all parts of the country the above
sentiment is oftentimes expressed,
when a big circs is billed to apupear.
This is true, where the management
of a big show mixes all sorts of acts
together in a crazy concoction. But
jlehn Robinson’s Ten Big Shows,
which will exhibit in Americus Wed
i nesday, November 22nd, afternoon and
evening, although one of America’s
largest amusement institutions, offers
no ground for such a complaint. The
i experienced management of the great
John Robinson’s Ten Big Shows long
since remedied this evil.
I A circus program is made up of
what is termed as "displays.” A dis-
I play is a series of acts given simul
taneously in the rings, on elevated
stages, in the air and on the hippo
drome. Instead of the display being
composed of several diverse acts, as is
i often the case in circuses, John Rob
inson’s Ten Big Shows’ displays are
made up of acts of the same kind. For
instance, if a male or female eques
trian act is being given in ring No. 1,
the very same kind of feature will be
found in the other rings. If a group
of aerialists appear at one end of
the great tent, another group will be
presented at the opposite end. Thus,
it is possible for the spectators at one
extremity of the canvas to see practi-
■ cally the same performances that the
people in the far end witness.
MAXWELL DID I FINE
RECORD IN A TR.P
In the face of Impossible road con
ditions, a stock Maxwell touring car,
driven by Ray McNamara, established
a remarkable record the day following
election day, when it pounded its way
across Michigan from Detroit to
Kalamazoo and return, in nine hours
and forty-five minutes. The speedom
eter registered 350 miles when the
car was checked in at Detroit at tne
conclusion of the run. The average
speel was 35.9 miles per hour.
The route taken follows: Detroit to
Lansing; Lansing to Grand Rapids;
Grand Rapids to Kalamazoo; Zalama
zee to Battle Creek; Battle Creek to
Jackson; Jackson to Detroit. The run
was officially observed and checked
ty Detroit newspaper men.
Carries Election News.
No mechanical trouble was encoun
tered, despite the fact that the car en-j
dured a terrible pounding on long
stretches of rough road. The only stop'
made on the long trip was at Kala-1
mazoo, where gasoline and oil were
taken on.
Fesides establishing a remarkable
record for speed and efficiency, the
Maxwell car took on itself the duties
of a tuurier, carrying news of the elec-'
tion results to the rural districts of;
Michigan.
In bold white letters, the body of
the car carried the announcements
that Prohibition had carried Michi-'
gan, and that Sleeper had been elected
governor of the state. The uncer
tainty in the returns on the presiden
tial election made it impossible to an
nounce the winter.
All along the countryside and in the
cities and towns through which the
Maxwell courier passed there was
tremendous interest in the returns. ,

Why suffer from a bad back, from

i Americus people recommend Doan’s

W. \V. Rigsby, policeman, 205 Prince

• The trouble was caused by my kidneys

of Doan’s Kidney Pills relieved me of
these ailments.’’ (Statement given
March 28, 1908).

I AFTER A LAPSE OF MORE THAN
SIX YEARS, Mr. Rigsby said: “Doan’s
idney Pills certainly did we a great
deal of good. I am always glad to
recommend them to others suffering

The sparrows have been so destruct

Mr. Mathis ordered a book from the
capital at Washington, showing how to
build sparrow traps.
All sparrow traps the people make
have proved failures, but these traps
are claimed to catch them every time.
Mr. Mathis is going to let some of the
iboys /in the manual training 'class
make some of the traps.
This week Mr. Smith is over to the
High school drilling the boys for Mr.
Agnew, as he has gone off. Mr. Mathis
is teaching in Mr. Smith’s place.
Last week we were all studying
hard because quarterlies were Friday,
but all of the children were not scared,
because they had been goodie goodies.
We get the Current Events every

We got the returns of the election in
the paper and are very interested in it,
because we are all for Wilson.
The heaters have been working fine
lately. We wouldn’t mind if theyn’t
work so well, because Mr. Mathis is
real good about letting us out when it
is real cold in the rooms.
We are glad the Times-Recorder of

and have wanted to take him.
LARGE MAP OF THE 0.
5. BEING PREPARED
WASHINGTON, D. C„ Nov. 19.—Ra
pid process is being made by the Unit
ed States in preparing its portion of
the huge world map which was agreed
upon in 1909 by nearly all the prin
cipal countries. By international agree-'
meet the authorities began preparing
maps of the entire surface of the
earth to be published on a scale of
one-millionth of actual size, or about
one inch to every sixteen milex All
the maps are to be uniform in shape
md general appearance, and are to
Lave the same conventional signs.
To meet the popular demand in this
cu'rtry for state maps, the United
State Geological Survey, which has
charge of the making of the American
section of the world map, is preparing
and publishing maps of each state on
a larger scale than the world map sec
t-ons. These state mape are twice the
size, or about one inch to every eight
miles. A map of the entire United
S’ates on that scale would cover a
sheet measuring twenty feet by thirty
one feet.
The survey already has issued such
maps for thirty-three states, the latest
being that of Florida, which is one of
the largest of the series. In compil
ing the maps every available source of
information has been ransacked lor
material, and many data never before
available to the public in any form
have been procured, so that the maps
exceed in accuracy any heretofore
published. The new Florida map meas
ures 44 1-2 inches by 61 inches.
Copies of the state maps are sold to
the public, by the government at nom
inal price.
