SPECTACULAR OUTDOOR CIRCUS

Twenty-five Acts Presented at Kankakee Fair. AUGUST 26TH TO 31ST From Kankakee has come the report that the Inter-State Fair of that place, which has won a national reputation for Its magnificent agriculture, live stock and Industrial exhibits, has announced to the public its splendid program' of outdoor free acts for 1918. 'This program, unsurpassable In quality, and Infinite in variety, will eclipse all of the brilliant successes of the past quarter century. Never before has the Association been as prodigal In Its expenditure of money, and never before as fastidious in its selection, as this season. Scouring the country from end to end, and bringing into play its time-tested taste in chosing acts, the management has procured a program of acts that will not be equaled at any Fair in the country. The acts cover the entire range from the superlatively beautiful to the laughingly comical; they are calculated to excite the admiration and the interest of everyone. Realizing that, in these unprecedented times of universal struggle and sorrow, the amusement psychology of the American public is undergoing radical changes; that with the stress of turbulent times comes a demand for the more sizzling, dazzling and harrowing types of amusement, the Kankakee Inter-State Fair has exerted Its utmost energies to satisfy these new and basically different demands of the patrons of the Fair. The results of its efficient and untiring efforts are shown in the acts that will be presented each afternoon and evening of the Fair, and it is confidently asserted that the Fair Association' has succeeded in meeting the new amusement demands placed upon it. Far and wide the reputation of the Kankakee Inter-State Fair for novel and varied entertainment has been spread; thousands and thousands of patrons look forward to Fair week with most joyous anticipation, knowing that during that week they will witness the unparalleled leaders of the vaudeville, circus and amusement world. While it is yet too early to make full announcement of what will await visitors of the Fair, yet the reader can ! be assured that the Kankakee Interj State Fair will maintain its position I as the premier leader of the outdoor 1 amusement world; and that once more eastern Illinois and western Indiana i will enjoy the World’s Greatest Out- | door Entertainment. Remember well the dates —August 1 26th to August 31st—the Week when I “joy is unconfined."

NEWSPAPERS BUILD SUCCESS

Len Small Praises Press Advertisement—Big Factor in Making Kankakee Fair. A tribute was recently paid to newspapers and newspaper advertising by Len. Small, the genial and efficient Secretary of the mammoth Kankakee Inter-State Fair. The occasion was a conversation, the burden of which was the success of the Inter-State Fair. It was remarked that that Fair had grown steadily from an obscure country fair to a place of pre-eminence among agricultural fairs and amusement enterprises. Credits Newspapers. Speaking of this phenomenal growth, Len. Small, at present State Treasurer of Illinois said: “If there is one thing more than another that deserves credit for building our Fair to its present size, it is the newspaper. Our constant and judicious use of newspaper advertising and publicity has been the power that has caused the Fair to grow. Business and commercial success, nowadays, I believe,” he said, "Is proportioned to the amount of newspaper publicity employed.” When it is remembered that the Kankakee Inter-State Fair, whose dates this year are August 26th to 31st, is an institution of unparalleled successes, and that it has grown by leaps and bounds, those words of its Secretary are worthy of serious consideration. Uses the Papers. The Fair annually carries advertising in over 150 newspapers; It Is constantly and efficiently at work to bring the merits of Its premier exposition before the public eye. And to do this It makes liberal use of the newspaper. The wide use of publicity no doubt played a prominent part in making of the Inter-State Fair at Kankakee the World’s Greatest Outdoor Entertainment

WAR-TIME FAIR

Kankakee Exposition Works for Victory. , •, — —■ The Kankakee Inter-State Fair, August 26th to August 31st, 1918, will truly be a war-time Fair. Among the expressive slogans adopted is this one: “A boost for the Fair is a boost for the Farm; a boost for the Farm is a boost for Victory."

MRS. S. L. JORDAN HEARS FROM HER DAUGHTER

Military Hospital, No. 5, Paris, France, June 29, 1918. Dear Mother: • ,•, .. Thursday night I recei Y e . d envelop with your letter and Chede s, dated June 1, and last night 1 ceived two more and m reading them, it was like being at the book and reading forwards, mats Sven letters in B ail and I presume that is all of them. As to the postage, I have had a lot of letters from the ’ states with three cent stamps, and those addressed t° the American Red Cross m addition to the 4 llat de la Concorde, come for three cents and the others they tax me four cents extra. Homer’s last three I had to pay extra postage. Your letters certainly contained a lot of news. I suppose Homer will be coming over soon. He will have many surprises over here, and 1 hop he gets to see both England and France, and go through it safely. I might as well tell you the Boche are raising particular h—again. We have had three nightly raids in succession again. Eleven killed and fourteen wounded night before last. We saw one of the planes going over our heads .when we were headed for the Abri. Some of the girls of the unit I came over with are back from Beauvais, where they were bombed -till they had to leave. One corner of the hospital was blown off when one of them was on duty, but no one was hurt, although glass was thrown all over the beds. They had German, French and American patients in tne hospital where they were. One girl had a German Major, and 9he asked him if he didn’t think the U. S. would be a great factor against them and he replied, “They cannot get over in time to save the situation for the A1 In S ’our issues of the New York Herald, they quote from dead Germans’ dairies and one of them was something like this, “The Americans are amatuer soldiers, but they have a certain ferocity in their fighting and seem to have poor judgment about retreating.” , The first of the week I drew twelve new cases. All were cases with gas burns and eye treatments. It is great work to do things for these boys. They are so appreciative and they can’t say enough about what it means to them to get into a place where there are American women, who can understand them. There are the Y. M. women workers? Red Cross entertainers, but they like the nurses best. I am feeling fine today, but when we have the raids it knocks a few extra hours of sleep that I ought to have# Last night I did not go to bed until 12:30, and was lucky enough to sleep till six instead of five as 1 usually awaken. I get up at 6:30 to the dot and the common comes out at seven, and we have breakfast out here. While I was at Marseilles it was almost impossbile to live on the allowance and this month we had a reduction on Pension rate so I have come out a little ahead# My tent has sixteen boys in it now. All go to meals except two. Nearly all have eye irritations from gas encounters. There is not much nursing and with a little ward housekeeping. The big game is keeping them entertained when they are indoors. The Y. M. and other workers give little entertainments at the pavilion a few rods away from my tent every few days. This is a village of big tents and a lot ~of--people around all the time. There are forty nurses and aides and a hundred boys doing various duties, wards, grounds, kitchen, etc. I have no idea how many doctors there are at this place. Just now there is an epidemic of dyphtheria going the rounds and we ail have had cultures made for our throats. I wont know for a while the results. If you miss hearing from me next week it will be because I am quarantined. You have asked about my letters not being censored and I think I have written the facts. If I were an army nurse or a military nurse, my mail would have to go through a censor, but lam working directly under the Red Cross as an Emergency Military Red Cross nurse and at present it is impossible to have, help enough to censor the Red Cross mail. , , It takes a month for your mail. Your June 1 mail came the 28 and that is as good as it ever does. This week has been as uneventful as one could expect in a war zone. A bunch of us nurses went to the movies the other night and the last picture ended rather suddenly and the Marsaillaise (not anthem struck ( up and we went out to find the siren screaming us deaf and we were a mile from home or Camp Eleyses, and we did some humping to get back and under cover before the barrage began. . ... . I doubt if Chede will get any ( foreign service by not coming before Homer did. They have made a fool ruling about nurses coming, who have brothers in the service. I think she should not have signed for home service and insisted on foreign service. She will be stuck in an old camp for the duration of the war. All the girls realize that to come independently as Emergency nurses we will have a wider experience. You have all mentioned about packages with an order from here. It will do no good for they will move nothing for three months even if signed by the commanding officer over here.. , Well, this is long enough letter and I will .not seal it until tomorrow. Sunday 6:30. No raids last night. On account of diptheria go prepared for tests and stay quarantined tonight. May be tied up for a week As ever, NETTIE B.

If your stock dies call me at my expense and I will call for it promptly. A. L. Padgett, Phone 65. Subscribe for the Republican.

ANOTHER LETTER FROM HARVEY PHILLIPS

Laber Weach, June 23, 1918. My Dear Parents an'd All: Received a letter today writen June 7th. That was making good time, only seventeen days from the day you write until I am answering it. Besides your letter I received one from Anna and Sylvia. All wefe written after the fifth. You must be pretty busy, having .so much garden, chickertfe and other things to attend to, also visit and attend your meetings regularity. You made me almost wish I was at home so I could get all the shortcake I wanted. We have regulation shortcake, but the berries are usually missing. Have chicken, once a week, but cdld storage chickens can never take the place of a,fine, spring rooster. Of course, it is different with those that have never tasted any only cold storage meat I see in the paper that Lawrence Blunk and wife were honored with a useful shower by their friends. Did not know that he was married. Be sure to give him and her my best wishes. Has anyone else been married since I left? You know Ido not get ail the news and do not want to make any bad mistakes. I suppose .John Cook will join dr be drafted b e f ore long. Glad to hear that all the crops are fine. Hope you have a record breaker. Be sure to send all the clippings of the letters from the boys over here, for they are very interesting. The people here are farmers and fishermen. They have farms almost large enough for a garden and make a living on it. They raise mostly truck and vegetables. We get all our cabbage, lettuce, onions and strawberries from the people close to our camp. Fruit will be scarce around here as I have not found a fruit tree. Even lumber is very scarce, most of ours come from home, (U. S. A.) The people cut the trees down and leave a stump almost three feet high and every year they cut the sprouts from these and that is their amount of firewood. They get the seaweed the tide washes in. This is piled in neat piles to dry. The drying takes about four to six weeks. Then the weed is burned and the ashes are used for several different things. The general use is fertilizer, but there are several different kinds of seaweeds and each has its own special use. At present there are several fires of weeds along .the coast. Reminds me of the forest fires. You know the way the smoke used to make it foggy for days at a time, that is the same way it is here now. , j, About the only cheap thing we can buy is wine. Eggs cost 80c per dozen, lettuce 12c a kilo or 5%c per pound, and cabbage almost the same. New potatoes are small and cost $4.90 per 100 kilos or 21c a pound. Cannot buy chickens at any price and. butter costs a fortune. Milk is cheap but hard to get. Fish, lobsters, crabs, oysters, snails; eels, and clams are cheap, but I had almost got my fill of seafood at first, so I don’t care much for it, although a few of us go along the beach and hunt crabs and boi! them once in a while Well, I will close and write to Sylvia a few lines, also have to write ■ to Helen, Edna and Anna. Give my best to everyone. Love to all. Your son, HARVEY. P. S. Send all the post cards and funny papers you can find, also any good magazines.
