US KIDS CIRCUS.
Being a Fascinating Chronicle of
How Some Young Folks Got Up a
one-Ring Circus and How 1t Went.
By Eleanor Waddle.

We never would have thought of doing
1t, us kids. If it hadn't been for Jack.
Bessie and Margaret wanted to buy a
music box, so Jack thought a circus
would be the best way to get the money.
Bobbie White was to be the principal
trapeze performer, to show off his won
derful act of "skinning the cat" and THE
OWL was to be the ringmaster with an
old buggy whip that had a cracker on
1t two yards long The reason us kids
called him THE OWL was because he
couldn't help squirting his eyes whenever
he looked at you.
Bessie and Margaret were to attend to
the dogs and make them do their fancy
acts of jumping through hoops and over
things, especially the amusing one, which
Jumbo, the littlest dog in the village,
could perform This was to sit erect on
his hind legs. in front of a stick, over
which handkerchief had been spread.
and pretend that he was warming his
paws at the fire.
Twenty-Five cents is to be the charge
for admission" said Jack, speaking like
the leader that he was.

Margaret. 81 never heard of a circus

say-can't we borrow Evangelina Cisne-

heard of the goings-on of us kids. Then.
too, the young ladies and gentlemen from
the Wingley Golf Club were there, and
the shopkeepers' wives and children from
the village. Everybody's coachman and
gardeners who could get off were there,
for us kids were pretty much OF favorites
with them. even If we did tease the life
out of them most of the time.

all around the inside, and then they filled
the middle space where the clown and the
trick mule were expected to perform, and
the gentemanly ringmaster to crack his
whip, with tanbark. 1t was the hardest
thing to do to get the center pole of that
heavy tent set upright, but this was final
ly accomplished with the aid of the coach

easy enough, because the outside poles
did not require such deep digging.
