CAPTAIN WEST WRITES OF HIS

The following extracts are taken
from a letter written from France by
Captain r. X. West of the 41st en-

TOO much cannot be said in ad-
miration of these French roads. The
hand of Napoleon shows through.
Their direct alignment facilitates safe
travel at a good speed with little
light. Their well graded up and per-
fectly drained roadbeds enable them
to withstand terrific punishment under
a traffic undreamed of in weight per
unit. volume and speed. Their stra-
tegic location on high ground facili-
tates transportation of needed sup
plies to important points. The system
of accommodating roads permits
of handling traffic all in one direction
without loss of time or much distance.
The resulting certainty and rapidity
of motor traffic has secured a hexi-
bility of action that has again and
again saved the day. The c~ertaint.
and rapidity with which supplies can
be handled is a most important con
sideration, as any unit can know Just
what it can do. It is to be hoped that
a proper appreciation of the result
secured through these roads may exist
among our people afterwards. The
question of condition Of a road is one
that does not come up. If the map
shows a road. it can be travelled"

THE CIRCUS OF THE ROMANS
AND THE CIRCUS OF TODAY

In the nineteen centuries that the
AID. so with the slaughtering of 5000
beasts in the arena of the Coliseum
in Rome. the circus has gone through
many evolutions.
England was the first country 10
have a modern circus. A Philip As
tehly. while serving in the army. had
learned feats of horsemanship and
had taught one of his horses a few
tricks. With a Miss Van Gable and
Signor Markutchy they were billed
as Transcend performers" and their
stellar act was "a minuet by two
horses" About this time Asterly
built an ampi-theatre and opened a
Royal Circus" under the management
| of George and John Sanger.
A short while %afterward p. T. Bar
mum of the U.S.A., hearing of the fame
and the crowds the Royal Circus was
drawing. paid a visit to England and
purchased paraphernalia and proper
ties of the circus spectacle THE Con-
gress of Monarchs." This American
enterprise proved a big hit III New
York and launched the United States
on a modern method of circus enter
tainments.
When Barnum died most Of the
property went to his partner, James
A. Bailey. The circus then consisted
of 900 people, 400 horses and a small
menagerie of unusual animals.
Up-to-date showmen realize that
human beings are mostly in need Of
amusement, and most of all The child.
That is why all good showmen intro
duce into their programs features that
will inspire the imagination and edu-
cate the children while amusing them.
That is one prime reason for the seek
ing after the child patron The inn
pressions made in youth are lasting
and the circus is a staple institution.
They are catering for patronage of
the child of today. tomorrow and the
many years to come.
When Al G.. Barnes instittuoi an
exclusively animal circus he gave TO
the child the rarest and most valuable
field for learning and amusement. lie
has continually persisted in keeping
his show regime clean and his enter
tainment up to the highest standard
of morals.
The child understands the animal
more than he does the human acrobat,
because the animal, like the child, is
on its first stage of learning. The
child develops more rapidly. the start
being of a higher element. The jungle
nursery of the Barnes show, with its
baby animals Showing of. is a treat
for the kiddie that every one should
have. The fabulous sun spent by
this original Snowman In gathering
such a variety of animals together
and the skill he has shown in edu-
eating these same animals 10 circus
feats, is simply astounding.
AL G. Barnes brings his valuable
collection of animals to Winnemucca
on May 10 and a parade will be given
in the morning at 1920 O'Clock, when
all open dens of animals will be
shown. The doors to the main tent
open at l and z pm, and while listen
ing to the free band concert patrons
may have an hour to look over the
animals in their dens before the per-
Torrance begins.
