CIRCUS DAY IN BEREA

The Campbell Bailey Hutchinson
Circus visited Berea on Tuesday Of
this week and gave a performance in
the afternoon and evening under
their canvass, which was pitched in
a 20-acre field just west Of the L. &
N. depot.
The free street parade was given
at 1890 with the usual display Of
wild animals, fine horses, dainty
decked ponies, the fun-making clowns
and the Rube's Band.
A large crowd Of between 800 and
a 1000 people was in attendance at
each Of the performances, and the
best Of order prevailed thruout the
day.
A heavy windstorm, shortly after
the afternoon show began, threaten
ed to cause a panic among the crowd,
but the shouts Of the clowns and
other level-headed people to keep
your seats" prevailed, after a few
minutes Of excitement, and the band
struck up a lively tune to help quiet
those who were inclined to be pan
icky."
The trapeze performances, the
wire walking, the acrobatic stunts,
and the feats Of the famous Daven-
port family of horse riders were ac-
complished with consummate skill
that drew hearty applause from the
well pleased audience.
The pony that danced, the bar
bering elephant" and the diving dog,
all gave evidence of painstaking
skill in training them.
The splendid music by the concert
band was one of the very pleasing
features of the show.
None of the Objectionable features
which usually accompany circus
were in evidence on or near the
grounds, and the general opinion, as
the Citizen reporter has sensed it,
was, that all received their moneys
worth with no "kicks coming"
Apparently everybody with his
and the baby took
in" the show, and more than one
small-boy circus has been staged"
or is in training on some of the va
cant lots Of Berea since the big show
left town.

GOOD TIME FOR EVERYBODY

What a patriotic sensible lot Of
folks we all are in Berea anyway!!!
Just as we go to press we are told
that every merchant in town has
agreed to "Close up on Monday
next, July 4, so that no one may be
deprived of a real holiday. This is
fine cooperation, and we're so glad
the Legion Boys suggested it-and,
after all, nobody will lose a cent,

the regular routine. Here's happy
