Drs. W. M. Terrell and J. L.
Williamson returned last S&tur-
day from attending the Health
Officers Convention at Austin.
Dr. Terrell is city health officer
for Graham, while Dr. William-
son is county health officer. We
should appreciate’the greatfwork
these h<£ *.X)fticers are doing.
0£» All ’things the health of the
town and community should re-
ceive our first consideration.
doctors who attend these
conventions only receive ntheir
expenses for the trip and their
work is all for nothing else thah
the benefit of the community
which they ; represent. They
are working to make their re-
spective towns and counties
more healthful for the people
who live there, which is contra-
ry to their Bnarfcial good, for
the more (fictmess-there is in a
place, , the more money and
business there ia lor the doctors.

Joel Maples, the postmaster, Is slok

Cotton is being gathered very fast
while the weather is fide and most
people are making moos than they ex
pee ted., Several we hear say they
will make one fourth and one third
bale per acre. This is not a had show*
ing after all, as the cotton prices
are so good this fall. At ■ one third
bale per aere, and 131 • its per pound
will make about *22.00 per acre—not
so bad as.we have seen It.
The-John E. Morrison store build-
ing will be finished this week and we
understand will be filled, with goods
right away. Bud Harris and
Campbell boys are doing the worl

The right-of-way coinmittee who se-

have done their work, securing J/v

Of this sum there, is hut little more
than #000 subscribed and paid in.
We will all share the benefits to ac-

that all will'seethat they are benefited
and will come up with a liberal amount
to help pay this money. #1,000.00

, In accordance with "the wishes of tte
patrons the management of the 8tats
Fair of Texjqi strives each year to keep
ap with the progreac wf-mankind to
every field of effort. Accordingly at the
twenty-fourth annual exposition, which
begins Saturday, October 16. and oon
tlnuee sixteen days, aerial navigation
will receive special attention. In all
probability there wll bo two types—
the aeroplane and the dirigible. The
dirigible la a certainty, and should the
Wright Brothers succeed In catching
up with their orders, their ' famous
aeroplane wll be eeen flying over the
State Fair Grounds each day.
■ Strobel’s dirigible Is the latest de-
velopment la that type of airship. He
has agreed with the management ..of
the Fair to give two flights each day,
In the morning and In the aftbrnoon.

In entertainment features the twen-
ty-fourth annual exposition will be a
record breaker. One of the most sen
satlonal and lnter'esting will he Pain's
Acrobatique Carnival from Manhattan
Beach. New York City, which will in-
clude not only afBrgeous dlsptay of
fireworks, but vaudeville features by
wonderful European gymnasts and a
grand military band. Pain has won
worldwide fame for his pyrotechnic
creAUbni. His latest devices are mo-
tion pictures In fireworks, comical!
ties and novejtjes. At his London and
Paris offices Mrwpaln has a rare op
portunlty of securing the world’s best
athletes, and his entertainment at the
Fair will be the greatest of the kind
ever offered In Texas.

In addition to the superb band and
operatic attractions the 8tate . Fair
management has secured some of ths
finest vaudeville artists on the Amer-
ican stage for its Music Hall programs.
Of the numerous artists that havs been
secured si»ecla1~ mention should be
made of MrGarvey, the world-famous
Impersonator of the geniler sex; Galet
tl’a monkeys In a farce comedy en-
titled "Green’s Night Off,” and Mrs
D. H. Kincheloe, a Kentucky woman,
famous as a whistler, reader, voeallst
and pianist. And then there will be
acrobatic stunts of a sensational na-
ture; a clown act that promises to be
Exceedingly popular and many other
features .
Bert McGarvey. the female Imper-
sonator, who appeared several years
ago in Pnllas, comes hack as an at
traction for the State Falf In what Is
termed the greateit test of “finesse” in *

Galeltl's monkeys are tht- most fa
rnous trained animals. In the world
Their absolutely human acts seem to
substantiate the Darwinian theory
The monkey band, playing various
popular, airs In a manner perfect, haiA
astonished audiences throughout th>-
T’nited States. ..And then the barber
shop feature, where-the nmnkuy barber
shavtetr 'etrfB hair, etc , is one of the .
most laughable acts imaginable. They
appear in a monkey farce comedy en-
titled “Green’s Nlgbt'Off," an act that
keens merriment a tolling during the
entire time.
As an entertainer-, musician, whistler
and warbler, Mrs. D.-H. Kincheloe hns
no superior in thiR country. Her,
whistling would put a mocking bird to
shame, and the old Roufhern dialect
in which ah? recites "The Party,”
ripples over wiYh that Bejpjie of iia-

She is a vety fine mualelntf and Is an
