PERU, Ind. Jan. 4-'Memb Der
when you used to get out Of bed
along about sun-up and trudge out
into the country along the dusty
road and then sit in a fence corner
watching the Frightening east and
waiting for the one-ring circus TO
come along? And then how you
marveled at the gilded caravan, the
spangled ladies" the clowns. the
elephant, the camel n everything.
D'ya member? And then you trudg
ed along in the dust beside the royal
procession until the show ground
was reached; and you watched the
canvas rise into a veritable wonder
land. That was the circus OF by
some days.
You yOung-old boys and girls"
this year may see the gigantic three
ring circus come 10 town in much
the same fashion as the wagon show
of used to-be.
But the smell Of gasoline will fol-
low in its train, for it is proposed
that circuses be motorized
Owing 10 developments i'm CON
nectiOn with government control of
the railroads, the proprietors of the
John Robinson shows. which have
headquarters here, and other big
circuses OF the country are uneasy
over the prospect of not being able
10 make railroad tours this year.
When the big shows ended their
travels last fall. and also since that
time, circus managers have beer ad-
vised officially by the government
authorities that transportation this
year cannot be guaranteed.
Among the larger circuses affect
ed are the John Robinson. the Hag-
enbeck-Wallace, the Ringing Bros
and the Barnum and Bailey shows.
These, particularly, are affected be-
cause of their size, while the smaller
railroad shows will be hit in proper
ton, but it may be that they will re-
sort 20 the wagon method Of trans
pOrtation.
The local circus has expended
thousands of dollars in maintaining
winter quarters, and with the pos
sibiIity of the army requisitioning
draft stock of the shows, the motor
ization Of the shows is deemed ad-
visable as a last resort.
