CIRCUS HAS A

Is so small that a child can carry II.
The Ringlings also have a remark
ably interesting family of giraffes.
This curious animal is becoming more
OF rarity each year and il will not
be long before they will become ex-
tinct.
The giraffe has no vocal organs
and can utter no sound. II can go
longer than a camel without food and
water. In fact It prefers at times

It's moisture from the damp mosses on
the trunks Of jungle trees. Giraffes
are found in the forest belt that hugs
the equator IN Africa. Hunters have
driven them so far into the i'm
penetrable Jungle that only OCCASION
ally is one found. There is great
danger In killing them I'm trying to
capture them. and Of those that are
shipped the majority die on the sea
voyage. So it may be seen why this
strange animal is missing from most

This is the circus Of a thousand

pigs that shoot the chutes, donkeys
that skip the rope and waltz to music
