ways maintained that Robinson's
Circus was the greatest show on
earth He had never seen any 9TH
er and could not believe that an
other show could be greater. Bar
mum & Bailey's circus drifted into
that section of Tennessee and plas-
tered flaming posters all over the
country side announcing THE
GREATEST SHOW ON EARTH.
Sept. 1. Uncle Zeb finally figured
it out. and upon the question being
put to him, said: yep, OATS right.

that's John Robinson's."

PIES

Doesn't it seem almost foolish
and wasteful to heat up your oven
and go to all the trouble and work
it takes, just to bake a pie or two,
when you can buy such nice ones
at the Ideal? Our pies are both
broad and thick-crisp crusts and
rick juicy Filings. We bake them
fresh everyday using only the finest
fruits we can get Any variety you
like is here-chocolate, cherry, ap-
pie, raisin, peach, apricot, peach
mince, cocoanut, cream, lemon,
ct They're 15c apiece and are
worth it both in size and quality.
