Albeit the voice of the clown

important an adjunct to the circus

fact, he and the equestrian dice

This change in the clowns S
IN ethod of working is the logical
result of the shifting conditions in
the circus world. In ye olden
time, when one ring sufficed, the
tent was necessarily small, a fact
which permitted the clown to be
distinctly heard from any point
under the canvas. At that period
one act at time was quite enough
