Swastika, which has become the symbol of anti-Semitism, is being worn by students, and even teachers in the schools and universities. The spirit prevailing in the schools is such that Jewish pupils are frequently placed in intolerable positions, being the objects of mockery and constant persecution on the part of their fellowstudents. A determined effort is also being made by anti-Semitic circles to spread the spirit of anti-Semitism among non-Jewish workmen. The so-called Nationalist Socialist party, which was founded for this purpose, has gained many followers, especially in Bavaria, and demonstrations of an anti-Semitic nature have become a daily occurrence.
Have you ever seen the Teddy Brothers perform ? If you have, you know that they are the-rvery best wrestling acrobats in this section of the country; you know that they can make you burst out with laughter more times per minute than Harold Lloyd, Charlie Chaplin and Bull Montana combined. If you have seen them once, you will «|ertainly want to see them again. And if you have not seen them, your big chance will come on September 17. TEDDY BROTHERS WILL BE ONE OF THE BIG FREE ATTRACTIONS AT KRUG PARK
