Lyman H. Howe's -Travel Festival,
which comes to the Parmefe

without any-of its defects, dis
comforts or inconveniences, its
importance cannot be over-estimated.
If it. were noteworthy for
no oilier of its many merits, this
fact along would justify its groat

important role than any dramatic
attraction extant. In the refine

Oii the contrary Mr. Tritsch
ays. "I necr registered for a

neither do 1 own an acre of

ceived bv me that my selection
has been cancelled by the federal

be at Hyannis on the date named
by Judge Wilten and make his
selection.
Stromberg adds thai he is not
Ihe owner of UN) acres or ahy
other number of acres of land. In
fact, he says he never owned an

farmer and occupies a farm own
ed by liis father, biit-he has no
interest in it, other than as a
tenant. : He is of the opinion that
the report I hat. he was dis
