CLOWN BAND ON BURROS BIG
HIT IN PARADE WITH THE TOTS

They're coming to town--the clowns,
the elephants and everything. Sells
Floto Circus will exhibit at Ell Centre
on Monday, April 22, and with the
show, say the advance men, are fifty
of the funniest fellows, the merriest,
merry Andrews that ever swung a
stuffed club or cracked each other
indelicately with the time-honored
slapstick. Among them are a half
dozen chaps known as producing
clowns-felows who carrv their own
troupes of funsters and their own
props as the paraphernalia of their
acts is called. These fellows have
built burlesques of every event now
being recorded in the daily press. They
will caricature the Bolsheviki and Bill
Bryan, meatless meals and most any
thing.
They ride Rocky Mountain burros
constitute the funniest jazz band this
side of the equator. Big clowns, little
clowns. fat clowns and slim clowns
they all puff Justify on their horns
and trombones while their patient lit
tie steeds trudge disdainfully along
In the performances they have hun
dred stunts, which they pull in the
rings, on the stages, in the air and
on the track. They are always on the
job and they will bet that they can
make you laugh as you never laughed
before, for they are the pick of
American and European fun-makers.

SCHOOL
OF OPPORTUNITY
(By Associated Press)

"A
liable to military service under the
seective draft has been undertaken
by the Opportunity School conducted
by the City of Denver. 1t is believed
here that this is the first school in
the country to offer such a service.
With a total enrolment of 5000 pu-
pills in less than year and half
and with it's wide scope of subjects
taught, the institution is considered
out of the ordinary.
Persons of all ages are admitted. A
pupil may enter at any time, take any
or all the subjects he wishes, devote
as much time as he can spare in
classes and choose the hour of classes
for the school is open from $50 a. m.
until 9:15 p. m.
Its activities cover a wide range,
from an employment bureau conduct
ed by pupils to training in aviation
by means of the schools own airplane
In all its industrial departments there
is along waiting list of applicants
for training. In the automobile me-
chanic department 600 men have en-
rolled, many of them being in the next
draft. They are preparing to be
more efficient workers "over there"
The women pupils have devoted one
afternoon week to making baby
clothes from partly wornout clothing.
Already 5000 garments have gone
to France, Belgium and Italy. 1t is
woman, Miss Emily Griffith, who is
in charge of the school, although it
was made possible by City Superin-
tendent of Schools Carlos NJ. Cole.
Lieutenant William Robert Russell
conducts the large classes in aviation
and radio work for enlisted and draft
ed men. From this class there are
now 125 men in wireless positions for
the government.
>; The school has 247 stars in its serv-
ice flag for those who have entered
military service, and they cover many
nationalities. Many of these, in fact,
are citizens the school has made
through its citizenship class, which
has prepared 600 men to take out
naturalization papers. Thiss class re-
Gently sent $10O to the Red Cross.
Twenty nationalities attend the
school at present.
The school is democratic. 1t pro-
vides for the energetic person anxious
to get ahead; the discouraged one try
ing to get into line again; the man
who missed his schooling; the ,educat-
ed taking some special training to
further fit them; the working boy
and the working girl, who come at
odd times, and, in fact, all shades and
degrees of both rich and poor. Often
servant and mistress make hats at
the same table.
Among its results are the machin..
ist who doubled his wages after his
drafting course; the young man who
measured muslin for ten years, until
he hated his job, and is no wa book
keeper and happy; the drifting boy
who found himself in the class in
railroad telegraphy and quit the pool
rooms.
