Preparations are being made to in

Now gather round me, Gnomes, while
i whisper it to you
"All the little Gnomes sat on toad
stools and on the ground and on big
rocks-anywhere so they could be
near Peter and hear his idea.
YES Peter continued, the reason
this Circus will be so wonderful is
because Wen do all the work and not
show off, Some of the little Gnomes
looked a tri6e sad at this, especially
the four Gnome brothers, who always
loved to do a bicycle act. But then
Peter went on to explain that they
would have plenty of chances to show
off at many another circus. And pref
ty soon the Gnomes began to under
stand that they must have the work
to do in order to make their guests
enjoy themselves.
$50 Peter Gnome went around the
countryside getting together his per-
formers, and soon came the day for
the big event. All the Fairies, Elves,
Brownies, Rabbits, Squirrels, and
even the Meadow Mice and the Moles
were invited to the Circus. And the
Grasshoppers, Lizards, Snails and
Butterflies were invited, too. Several
families of Birds were given box seats
in the best tree near where the
Gnomes held their Circus.

their tricks again and again so they
We're in fine form when the Circus be-
gan. First of all, there was the pa
rade, and the Gnomes played the band.
Peter Gnome had big stick which he
threw up in the air as the band was
playing, and did many funny things
which made the audience laugh.
"And then the Gnomes who were
not in the band set to work. They
pulled up the ropes and the swings,
and got everything ready for the per-
formers as they came out, and so
quickly did they work that there was
not moment when some fine act was
not being performed.
"The Butterflies gave a Butterfly
dance which was very beautiful and
Mr.. Sun threw on his wonderful spot
light for that act. The Rabbits raced
and jumped, and drove the chariots
drawn by the Meadow Mice, over
which there was great excitement.
The Grasshoppers rode on the backs
of the Moles, and jumped through
hoops made of meadow weeds.
"And all the time the Gnomes
rushed about fixing up things so that
no time would be wasted, and in be-
tween times they went around as
Clowns, making funny speeches and
getting all the Animals and Fairies to
laugh until they nearly criedl The
tears did trickle down the faces of
the Squirrels, for they love fun and
enjoy good jokes.
"A number Of the Gnomes had been
chosen to pass around pink lemonade,
