New Scheme to Help tie Boys


Chicago, April 22.-The barefoo,
boy who used to Fay hockey from
school and get into the circus bv car
rying water for the elephants or
slipping past the watchful guards is
being replaced by the carefully dress
ed youngster who goes to the "scin-
tillating spectacular, stupendous per-
formance" with his teacher and walks
boldly in through the main entrance
as the management's guest, his ad-
mission being entirely free.
The change, bringing free adrlis-
sion to boys, started through coopera-
tive arrangements between circus
arrangements and leaders in boys
welfare work who wanted to give the
underprivileged lad little pleasure.
Now it is spreading so that not only
the poor boy, dependent on >public
charity, but the average school
youngster can get an "eye full" of ele-
plants, lions, tigers, clowns and aero
bates free, for thousands of kiddies
now are being supplied with free cir
Gus tickets.
The new scheme started in Chicago
when Hull House, Gads Hill Center
and other boys settlement homes ap.
pealed to the Sells Floto circus a wear
or so ago to let their boys in free.
The request was readily granted and
the arrangement repeated each year.
Then the circus management decid-
ed to extend the plan to the schools
and large groups of children were in
vited each day. Accompanied by the
teachers, they came by the hundreds.
During it's two weeks stay here the
management of this circus gave away
several thousand tickets to ch;ldren
and-most remarkable of all--found
that giving away tickets to kids was
making proposition in the
long run, for the boy of today proved
to be the grown up circus "fan" Of to
morrow.
One of the leaders in the movement
to give the youngsters a free view Of
the Circuit was Allan Carpenter. d-
rector of the Boys Club at Hull House
here. Mr.. Carpenter, in his work
with youngsters who had no hor,p
of their own, found that one Of their
greatest needs was recreation Of Il
type which would take their mirL
off the daily routine of life.
eve believed trip to the circus
would be splendid thing for tar,n,
but we had no money for SUCH things" ."
he said. when the kids came back
from their matinee they were IN ct-
stacy. They didn't quit taking abont
it for week and were full of pep and
life. We are going to extend our wort:
and try to arrange for more such
pleasure for them"
