CIRCUS PARADE NO
LONGER A FEATURE
New Combined Shows So Big
That Street Pageant Must be
Eliminated.

AT the several cage doors of a big ag-
gregation of highly trained polar bears,
tigers. lions, leopards and iaguars may
be laid the blame for the fact that the
Ringing Brothers and Barnum Il Bailey
Circus has this season eliminated its
street parade. II happened this way

BUSINESS of the combined equipments
has proved a handicap to the giving Of
the street pageant. As even the lay
man knows, the circus mans first bust
ness is to get the show paraphernalia
and vast properties from the railroad
yards to the show grounds and then
put them and the great tents in place
But. following the combine. there was
sso much OF this work To be done that

puently had TO be cancelled altogether.
Last winter came the opportunity TO
purchase Europe's biggest trained ami
NAL show. The Ringiing Brothers did
not hesitate. They immediately decided
10 take on" this great new feature and
to make room for il by eliminating the
properties and vehicles required for the
street parade and the time taken in
giving the parade. Anu so IL came 10
pass that two score of Jungle actors
were largely responsible for the change
in policy.
"Of course that was merely the decld-
ing factor-the iast straw. So to speak. :"
explained one of the circus agents yes

enumerated. the European aggregation
includes dozen trained caInels. more
than forty trained horses and other fea-
lures. The more ferocious performers
are exhibited IN immense steel arenas.
There are four of these heavy enclos-
ures. and these. along with other special
paraphernalia and properties. require
an added force of fifty property men.
Then there are some thirty trainers
and their assistants who accompanied
the animals from Europe.
The added trained animal show Is
not exhibited az a separate attraction

program in the main tent. In order

IN Wilmington in regard TO Plant Juice.

man beings were affected. too. II Is
a good deal to do with the way you
feel on given morning. IL may be
that when science has studied the
matter adequately. all human activi-
ties will be regulated largely in ac-
cordance with the condition of the
sun spots. Some years ago a scientist
attracted good deal of attention by
claiming that he could predict the
price of wheat by the sun spots.
Meantime. the Weather Bureau
states that it cannot trace any con-
nection between the sun spots and the
weather. 1t admits that sun spots
have something TO do with the aurora
and terrestrial magnetism, but says
"the nature OF these relations is COM
plex and more or less unknown"
The last word no doubt sums up the
situation. The sun, by whose light
and heat alone man lives his little
moment, is a terrible mystery TO him,
He does not know what II may do TO
him. But meantime he calmly
-,rutinizes 1t and impudently tries to
hitch IL up and make it work. Dur
ing his residence at the Mt. Wilson
Observatory. DIR. Abbott made a sun
heat cooker He concentrated the
rays by means OF paraholic mirror,
and so baked meats and bread without
the use of fuel
Perhaps the scientist on his moun-
tain top. studying the sun through his
telescope. while il cooks his dinner
for him. is an outpost in more senses
than one. He is an outpost of the
future when man will understand far
more OF the universe in which he
lives. and will control IL for his own
benefit.
