Horse Sure Can Dance
Fans who go to the circus "to see

she will bear the scar to the end of
her days-but she never missed a
single performance on account of the

Another high spot of the show is
Percy Clarke's riding horse while
standing on his hands. Percy, ac-
cording to other actors in the show,
is the only man in the world who can
do that stunt. It certainly doesn't
look any more difficult to the novice,
however, than the stunt of Johnnie
Carriea, his partner-who jumps from
the sawdust onto the back of a
galloping horse, with two clothes
baskets tied on his feet
