nv~r The Evening Journal Largest Circulation
Pals With Wild Beasts
Writes About Them

Ed Norwood probably has more
wild animal friends than any man in
America.
That's because. when he first
Joined a circus. 10 years ago. he got
to wondering what was In the mind
OF the tiger that caused him TO pace
continually back and forth across
his cage.
Norwood decided to find out. He
began to cultivate a friendship for
the tiger.
He never learned the cause OF its
restlessness, but he did arouse in
himself a love for wild animals.
He's Beasts Pal.
Norwood extended his acquaint-
anceship TO other beasts. Today he's
a pal OF more OF the occupants OF
Ringing Bros. menagerie tent than
any single trainer In the circus. And
in these years Norwood. who today
is called Americas best press agent.
has collected a world Of valuable
data on the habits and vagaries OF
his four-footed "chums."
1T never has been the custom
among circuses to feature animals
in publicity material" he says. but
on the train one day. I fell TO mus
ing about what would happen TO my
friends n some day they were all
turned out OF their cages Many OF
them, you know. were born in the
circus and never have seen the
homes OF their ancestors.
Stories Hit.
FINALLY 1 wrote a fancifui story
about the experiences Of Monkey and
his friends.
The editor in the next city want
ed TO print II. Then he wanted
more. I wrote them. And after /
got started. I became so Interested
In the idea that 1 had TO keep il
going. To date I've written more
than 100000 words about the imagi-
native experiences OF my friends"
Norwood has just arranged with a
Boston company to publish the
stories In book form.

Book an Education.
Norwood then takes up in detail
the fanciful adventures that each
OF the circus animals had when
"Diggeldy Dan" unlocked his cage
and sent him out for a night to see
the world.
The picturesque nature OF these
adventures and the accurate por-
trayal OF the nature OF the various
animals. which only a person with
Norwood's first-hand knowledge
could write. make the book an edu-
cation as well as a new sort Of fairy
