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. , m SIILFLK so? i Why suffer from a bad back, from I sharp, shooting twinges, headaches, | dizziness and distressing urinary ills? i Americus people recommend Doan’s I Kidney Pills.

The sparrows have been so destruct - ive around the school grounds that 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 week and have a lesson it on Mondays. 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.

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.
