Wil) Net a Good | 'Sum of Money--The Attractions | Are Worthy of a Visit. "The World at Home Shows are at- l.tracting big crowds at 'the fair] I groutiag; Théy have been brought to | Kingston under the auspices of the | i | local G.W.V.A., and the indications] are that a substantial sum will Be | | realized 'by the veterans. It will be | the attraction, at the fair grounds | | for the balance of the week. The | | Polack shows have been well receiv- | ed wherever they have been given, | | and all who visited the grounds on | { Tusday had warm words of com- |} | mendation for the offering. Of the sideshows possibly the best | {is the great wild west performance | { put on by a half dozen genuine cow- | | boys, a couple of expert girl riders | { and an old pioneer Indian chief. All | sorts of fancy lassoing, daring rid-| | ing, wrestling on horgeback, jump- | | ing from horses and racing is indul- | | ged in, Both the men and women are really remarkable riders and suffi- | | elent time is taken to provide a real- | | ly entertaining show once the neces- | | sary "crowd has been gathered' into the big tent. The dare-devil cycling ofthe three | performers, two men and a girl, who | cycle the wal qf death, isa thrilling | act in itself. The cyclists mount their | machines and starting at a terrific | pace, immediately proceed to climb a twenty foot circular wall, riding, of course at a right angle to the wall. | They ride until' they are- ~tearing | around at.the top of the wall and then gradually descend agdin until | the ground, is reached, all the time | performing by folding their arms, { Xavizs bodies and swinging thelr legs. Another of the best shows is the Garden of Allah, wherein a number | of classic dancers go through the! graceful performance of their parti- | cular Russian steps, Pulchritude is the quality of the women taking part | and the men havé marked physical | ability. There are scores of other good shows and ones well worth seeing. There is the usual number of freak! performers such as the Lilliputians, | the two-headed body, the smallest | woman in the world, etc.,, and for| lovers of boxing a continuous fight is | taking place betweefi "a couple of world champions. There are diving girls, swimmers who perform won- ders under wateg; there is the thrill- ing Over the Falls, known to many peaple who have taken the trip be- fore; there are gla%s blowers, and other attractions too numerous to enumerate. Daring Diving Girls, Last night Miss Lucile Anderson, of the Diving Girls' show, entertained large crowds with her feats of underwater endurance, especial interest being shown in one of her difficult tricks, eating under water. Announcement was made' that tonight Miss Anderson will both eat J@nd drink under water. These perfor- mances take place in' a large' steel and glass tank and are in plain view of the audience at all times. Drinking under water is declared the 'most difficult of all tricks of Miss Anderson'y under-water reper- toire. In accomplishing this feat she has defied laws of science which. de- clare that while it is quite possible "for a diver to masticate antl swal- to drink from a container or bottle. However, the young lady has' per-« formed this trick many times and to- night will offer it for the first time in Kingston. Fruitgrowers Want Ocean Rates Reduced .. Colborne; July -21.--At sentative meeting "of fruit-growers and shippers, coming from various parts of the Province and hel¥ at Presqu' Isle Point, near Brighton, re- cently a resolution was passed after much discussion, asking the trans- poration companies to reduce the ocean rate of $2.20 per barrel to $1.- 0. It was pointed out that owing to 'the exceeding high cost of barrels and also of labor, it would be diffi- cult to handle the large apple crop with any measure of success unless such reductions were made. Several growers reported that fruit was looking well for this season of the year, 304, 1a most orchards ap- ples were free\from fungus and oth- er defects. : ---- a repre- On Monday , Mrs. James H.

NEGLECT OF SCHOOLMASTER To Ally Himself More Closely To His Fellows, Dr. H. T. J. Coleman, Dean of the late Faculty of Education; at Queen's University, is lecturing at the sum- mer session of University of Saskat- chewan. The Saskatoon Star of July 13th has a lengthy account of an ad- dress he delivered there on "Demc- cracy.and the School Teacher." It 'proved a most: interesting address, giving his hearers an idea of the pro- blem confronting the school teacher in the development of 'a school that will mf€et the demands of the pres- ent social order. Dr. Coleman .declared, that.the school, masfer had never been re- garded as one of the world's great sources of joy, or even of .enlighten- ment, nor have his works command- ed from the general public, anything like the enthusiasm which attaches almost as a matter of course to in- dustry, or polities, or sport. The speaker gave it as his opinion, that the scheolmaster has, in-the past, stood in his own way, and in the_way of educational progress, by neglecting to ally himself more close- ly to his fellows. "I belleve most heartily in union," said 'thé speaker, "even in unions, though it is not consistent with the purpose of my paper, to explain to you the sort of teacher's union I be- lieve to be the best. I will, howéver, say this, that when nearly every trade and calling under the sun has its union, secure adequate rewards for industry and suitable conditions of work, there is no logical reason why the 'teachers should not have theirs. Anyway, the teacher's union is here and is spreading all oyer this continent with something of the speed of an old fashioned 'prairie fre' A SPLENDID SHOWING Napanee Public School Had Fine Results.
