HarIess Feneeless Zoo Planned In

The physical and psychological at
mosphere Of their native jungle free
dom. with woods, mountains and
streams unchecked by metal bars or
other evidences of restraint, are to be

dwelling in the Chicago Geological
Park colony, only few miles from
the center of Chicago. About 200
acres have been acquired some IL
miles west of Chicagos loop. and will
be transformed into land "condu-
Give to happiness and longer life, of
animals" though the installing Of the
barless type of zoo.
Zoo specialists, architects and ami
NAL authorities from all over the
world were called to pass upon the
tract, and the model ultimately &C
copied, avoids the faults experienced
in the construction of other large ZOOS.
George F. Morse. for many years
head of the Boston Zoo, will direct
the Chicago plan.
Dens will be provided for the lions
in which they will be able to move
about at will, with no bars. the public
being protected by concealed moats
beyond which the animals cannot go.
Goats and other climbing animals
win be in enclosures where there will
be crags and rocks and various other
natural fixtures that will permit them
to exercise their natural instincts.

Thousands Visit Grounds

Augusta citizens had that oppor-
tunity Sunday, which has ever oeen
the ambition of many generations OF
American boys, 10 see the inside OF
a circus. In boyhood days the I'M
pulse and the urge is SO strong that
youngsters have trudgcd miles over
dusty roads to meet the old time
overland caravans, and other count
less thousands have worked with
herculean strength and uncomplain-
ing persistence. just to be in and
about the 'lot" while the acres OF
canvas, which cover the glitter and
panoply, are being raised into place.
THE smell of the sawdust rings -,
is known and loved to the amuse-
ment loving American public, and
staid indeed is the business or pro-
fessional man on circus day, who
does not again feel the tug at his
heart strings, which finally forces a
Surrender to the lure of the big show.
Coming into this city on Sunday,
the thousand and more people who
compose the Sells-Floto organiza-
ton proceeded to establish their
camp and quarters at the circus
grounds, getting everything in readi-
ness for the morrow's showings. II
was this one day lay-over which
provided the interesting opportunity
for the folks of the city and sur
rounding country to inspect the
magnificent organization from be-
lind the scenes.
Here one of the women performers
was found seated on her trunh Care
fully repairing the bespangled gar
ments of the show ring. In another
corner of the tent sober faced in
dividual, who on circus day will rock
thousands with his antics in clown
regalia, was writing letters to an IN
valid mother in Indiana. In the at
ternoon about the city streets, n.em-
bers Of the many troupes walked
leisurely, interested in the wide
tree shaded streets and beautiful
homes of the Capital City Of Maine.
At the evening services in the
churches many of those comprising
the congregations were from the
personnel of the circus.
Circus folks were found to be
very human after all, eager to learn
something of the history of the city
in which they were to pass two days.
Interested in its public buildings
and institutions, and loud in their
praise for its cosy homes. Now en-
tering on their thirtieth week on the
road. most of these people have
homes somewhere. Temporarily
their vocation calls them away, but
their thoughts are with family, and
they write letters to and receive
