This goat, is exceptionally large (for a goat) and to see him climb the incline to a 40 foot height and then take a high dive for the earth will surely give you a thrill, almost human. Harrison also has two„high diving dogs that are wonders. We have ^een them dive twenty and thirty feet, but these dogs do a 70 foot dive. Just imagine an object 70 feet in height and then think of these dogs diving that/ distance--you will want to be in the grand stand then.

Captain Corr and his company will give exhibition drills each day of the fair, and will be one of the big at­ tractions. Company G was the first company in the Third regiment to fill its quota of 150 men, and for several weeks has been ready to proceed to camp at a moment's notice.

Actual drills are being conducted-each day and the men are well rounded out in army proficiency The McHenry county fair if for­ tunate to have Company G as one of its attractions this year and the public will enjoy their presence, both on ac count of their exhibition drills each day and because of the splendii per sonnel of both officers and men.
