dies-Miss Florence Cauthorn, of
Gervais, and Miss Nellie Vernon, of

The Salem Hospital Training

THE CLOWNS
ARE GREAT
FEATURE
sELLs.FLOTO CIRCUS EXCELS IN
THE LINE OF CLOWNS AND
THEIR SIDE SPLITTING WORK
AS 1T DOES IN ALL OTHER
LINES.

AS every season rolls around we
generally find the proprietors of big
tented attractions vieing with each
other in order to produce the most
novel act, be it either what is COM
monty known in circus parlance as
thriller or pure comedy.
There is something irrestibly funny
in the laughable act introduced by
the Sells-Floto' people this year. 1t
is that of real battle with the
flames by the Associate Clowns of
that organization.
A regular fire engine is used of the
most approved make and it may add
interest to know that it is drawn by
perhaps what are considered the most
celebrated team of fire horses on the
continent, being those who journeyed
to London a few years ago and wrest-
ed the honors from all competitors at
the series of fire drills given there.
A building is discovered on fire in
the center of the main tent. The
regular alarm is given and the fire
engine rushes in followed by the
clowns who come armed with soda
water siphons, watering cans and
other paraphernalia. Their ludicrous
efforts to extinguish the flames is
said to be about the funniest thing
that has even been introduced to the
patrons of the circus.
The Sells-Floto circus will give
two performances here on Thursday
June 8. The price Of admission, as
most people know, has been cut in
half this year so that for 25 cents
one is permitted to see this great
circus in it's entirety.
