LAST CHANCE TO SEE.
THE WINTER CIRCUS

There are at least two good reasons
why the people OF Richmond who
have not seen the splendid CIRCUS at
the city auditorium. the performance
being given under the auspices OF the
American Legion, should take TINS
last opportunity Of enjoying them :
selves for an hour or two
The first reason Is that the tunds
derived from the show are to be de-
voted to the aid and assistance or
members of the legion, who at any
time may be in need OF help tempo
rarily, and the second reason Is that
it Is good show.
Some of the finest acts In the circus
line are here. and the attendance
should certainly fill the auditorium
at the two performances this after
noon and tonight. Special arrange
rnents have been made TO take care
Of the children and a special rate has
been fixed.
