The old country circus my boyhood dsys
knew
In these days Of three rings, OF hippodromes.
railroads,
How fond recollection presents thee to viewl
For weeks. while the posters on fences and
church sheds
Portrayed TO my young eyes the scenes that
should be.
No soft thrill OF love. no throb OF ambition.
Has since equalcd the bliss / gained dream
Ing OF theol
The old country circus. the shabby old circus,
The wandering old circus my boyhood days
knew.
How faithful worked In the ways that pre-
sented
To gain the few pennies my ticket should
buyl
No toll was 60 sweetened-no reward 80 stu
pcndous-
No mlsor e'er cherished his hoard as did I.
How fair shone the sun on the glad day ap-
pointed
How rife with strange hustle the sleepy old
And when DER the hill came the rumble OF
wagons
The bound OF my heart said. ''The circus has
comei"
The old country circus tho faded old circus.
The one horse old circus my boyhood days
knew.
What pageant OF now can that grand ontry"
compass2
What wit OF today like those Jokes OF the

And those divans OF pine boards--such ease

No reserved. cushioned chairs Of the present
can bring.
One elephant only. satisfying, majestic,
Not Jumbo nor sacred, neither painted nor

The old country circus. the tawdry old circus,
The perfect old circus my boyhood days
knew.
