Victory School.
The trustees of Victory school
have done and are still doing much
for their community. They have
an energetic, industrial people to
deal with, and they are endeavor¬
ing to give them a school equal
to any in the county. To this end,
at their last meeting they arranged
and so ordered that the branches
usually taught in the High schools
shall be made a part of curriculum
and that special attention be paid
to same.
It has also been planned to give
to each patron personally a com¬
plete list of tho books needed for
each child to enter a certain grade.
The importance of this is not un¬
derstood by our city friends, who
can call at the book store on the
afternoon of the day on which
school begins. Not so with the
country children, who go in want
of books one, two and often three
weeks.
This school opens its doors to
the public on October tho 28 and
a full attendance is expected.

Gentry Bros. Show
Coming Next Friday.
Much, enthusiasm is being man¬
ifested m this section over the ap¬
proaching visit of Gentry Brothers’
Famous show (united), which
give two pertormauces in Cov
ington on Friday Oct 11. , at Base
pa,.^ This is directly attri-
5uta bi e to two truths, viz: Gentry
Brothers’ show is easily the most
popular of all under canvas amuse¬
ment institutions which annually
visit Covington and is, secondly,
the only big tent enterprise cotn
mg South this season.
The great trained animal organ¬
ization is now fourfold greater than
it ever was before. Over five hun¬
dred wild and domestic animals
have been collected for the men
agere since its last appearance here,
while eleven great arenic acts, by
“real human being”, now con¬
stitute an important part of every
performance.
Advance notices say that the
following, among many others,
are feature acts of the big show :
The monkey Baborehop, the Bab¬
oon theater, the high-diving dog,
the Monkey Fire Brigade in action;
Marcel and Lennet, Austrian acro¬
batic artists ; the flying Zereldas,
the Juggling Normans, the Impe¬
rial Troupe of Japanes tumblers,
the athletic sheep; the drill of
nations by one hundred ponies,
the bell-ringing specialty by
eight beautiful Shetlauds, Mr.
! Perkins, the irrepressible hog
comedian ; Toy, the smallest horse,
and Dan, the, largest mast,ill',
something unique.
Gentry Brothers’ Famous Shows
have more trained ponies, horses,
dogs, monkeys and elephants than
all other shows comined, and
equals in general excellence any
circus now on the road. That is
one reason why Gentry Brothers’
exhibitions are always so popular
and so well patronized.
The parade this year is said to
ba ” a thing of beauty and a joy
forever”-quite the prettiest thing
on wheels. The beautiful min¬
iature pageant awakend deep de¬
light wherever seen and opens the
eyes of even those who have been
witnessing circus processions for
years and years.
While the afternoon exhibitions
commence at 2 and 8 o’clock, re¬
spectively, the doors are opened
an hour in advance of each per¬
formance, allowing lull oppor¬
tunity for the inspection of the
mammoth menagerie, which is a
bIiow in itself.
