 Here you see that the war Is over, Germany beaten, Peace signed.
 What, you ask, keeps peace from Europe? It is hard to make you see that when France takes this position it is because she wants to assure peace.

CIRCUS PARADE FEATURE NOT ID
 BE RESUMED

The Barnum and Bailey Ringing Brothers circus, Bridgeport's Greatest Show on Earth not so many years ago combined with Baraboo Wiscon- sins Worlds Greatest Shows, is rapid ly spreading itself all over Bridgeport and southern Connecticut, in the win ter time a least.
 Since the combination, the local winterquarters on Norman street at Railroad avenue, have been entirely inadequate Much surplus equipme ent Of the two shows was left behind each season. Since 1912 the Adam Fore pauSh-Sells Brothers shows, have not ?cen taken entour and when the Bara- boo property was abandoned, quite a bit of property that was formerly used on this show, was brought to Bridge port.
 Before this there were dozens of parade wagons pulled years ago when picting the tales in Mother Goose '' and these floats, with many others, in cluding extra chariots galore are still held in quarters. A few wagons be- longing to the original and wonderful Buffalo Bill Wild West show can still be found in the yards, for the James A Bailey estate at one time controlled this exhibition.
 With the abandonment of the popu- lar street parade feature, an addition al surplus of wagons, of no mean ex- tension, was the hands of those who keep a watch over the big place in the summer Many surplus anil malS have also been given a much needed vacation since the two biz shows were rolled into one, and witt

all the circus stock and paraphernelia on hand this winter it has been found necessary to find additional storage space.
 The big buildings, loft, car sheds, animal houses and car shops at win ter quarters are full. Canvas is being stored at the Turney Brothers ware house on Middle street, and cars are being stored on Sidings belonging to the Rockledge company, and various other places as far away from Bridge port as Wallingford and Meriden. In former years wagons were left out doors, many of them on vacant lots on State street, but the building of the open air arena took away one winter lot, and now the management of the circus has found it necessary to find new storage location, with the result that the idle plant of the Liberty Ordnance company, in the eastern section of Bridgeport is filled
 The only even fairly quiet time of the year around winter quarters is being enjoyed right now although a great deal of preliminary work for next season is under way. However following the holidays the big spring drive will be on, and work pushed preliminary to the early spring open ing in Madison Square Garden. Re- ports in amusement magazines not W1thstanding. it is deemed very un- likely that the parade feature will be revived the coming season

 "You may reaHze,'' he began, that I, a delegate of France, feel great emotion at addressing this solemn conference. I thank you for the greeting and I thank the conference for permitting the opportunity for France to appear in her true colors before the whole world. Nothing is more agreeable to France he said, than to tell the conferences that France stands ready to make the most sacrifices and contribute most to the era of peace.
