CIRCUS life IN
BRITAIN BIG
: !. BUSINESS
Communities Which Give
Shows Conducted on Prin-
~. cipIes Of Cities.

LONDON March 24.-The circus
is ready<to take the road again. At
The first whisper Of spring in the
air the wagons and chariots are
painted and gilded; cracked mirrors
replaced; tents overhauled. All
through the long winter the circus
community has lived that queer, un-
obtrusive, life unheard Of by any one
who does not get a peep behind the
scenes, writes Ethel e. Mannih in
"The London Daily Mail"
The circus business Is a very big
business, and a profitable one. 1t
is not, as so many people seem to
imagine, a gypsy affair conducted
by picturesque, people with a taste
for vagabondage. 1t is run by men
with sound business instincts. 1t is
usual for the proprietorS to accom-
pany the circus on tour. They
travel in cars and put up at hotels
along the route.
The winter quarters Of the circus
are on. the proprietor's estate-of
two hundred acres or more. The
circus people form a colony Of their
own. On the estate will be found
the proprietor's imposing house,
and, IL it be a family concern. the
houses Of his sons or brothers in
the business with him.
The picturesque people who are
the circus" the outside world sees
live in roughly constructed huts
and bungalows; sometimes under
canvas, sometimes in caravans, &C.
cording to individual taste and the
size of their families. They divide
their dwellings up into streets and
avenues, and name them in the
manner the men in France during
the war gave familiar street names
to the different trenches. In one
circus community known to me
there are Piccadilly circus and a
Leicester circus.
The dwellings, Of the circus hands
form a complete village. with the
horses. paddocks, elephant houses,
kennels, etc, all conveniently at
hand, together with one or two
spacious gymnasiums where men
and beasts practice their tricks and
keep fit: and there are huge walls
where the very costly professional
wagons are housed. Everything is
up to date.

EAST:.":|S" RULING
NEW STYLES
IN PARIS
Beautiful coIors Of Spring
Gowns Rival All combina-
tons of Rainbow.
BY ALICE LANGELLER,
Cosmopolitan News Service,

PARIS, March 24.-Every new
season brings forth a wealth of
new materials more beautiful and
striking than any that have gone
before. This year is no exception.
In fact, the creators seem to be
.outdoing themselves this i spring.
There are; countless fanciful varie.
ties. textures. colors and designs.
The influence of the Orient is
strongly felt in the lovely wool
"brocarts" to be seen in every
smart shop. There is a Persian
brocart worked in relief designs
like tchiseling in bands Of many
colors on contrasting backgrounds
and make very gay coates that are
worn with plain pleated skirts.
Smyrna brocart Is brother Of
the Persian, variety, and is bright
with Oriental scrolls, worked in
white relief on background Of color
ed stripes. It is as soft as velvet.
COlOrs Of Rainbow.
Alpaca in every color Of the rain
bow-and then some-is used for
both street and dressy costumes,
but it is not the stiff harsh stuff
that grandmother used to make
grandpa's coats from. 1t is as soft
and supple as silk. and comes in
lovely shades. Francis Is making q
charming little costume OF the i'm
perneable alpaca in brown. with a
rose-colored undersurface.
1t has cunning little hood,
which pulls on when 1t rains.
"SedaipaU is a silk alpaca woven
in a crinkly pattern, which is very
chic. 49,.
Heavy serges and diagonals have
given way to a soft kasha cloth,
which is pleated and embroidered,
and used for both tailored dresses
and wraps. : Many have shoulder
capes made on the same kasha and
tied on one shoulder. Soft plaids
in soft tones promise to be very
popular. =
Dinner gowns are carried in
crepe georgette, crepe roplain or
mousselipe de sole. Saga" Is a
lovely new material, supple and
elegant.
Evening. Gowns Simmer.
For the full dress evening gown
there are richly embroidered ma
terials. shimmering lanes and
beaded chiffons. Gold material is
coming more and more into vogue.
Lace is used in every collection,
and an unusual use Of cretonne
marks the house Of Philippe and
CASTOR. One model is in black
satin made on straight lines, and
entirely embroidered in cretonne
flowers, outlined in RED. beads.
Organize is shown for summer
frocks, and Is often used for collars
and cuffs. One frock is trimmed
with cut embroidery outlined in
red which, by the way. seems to
be one. Of the leading colors Of the
season. "..t ., .

Sunday evening Senator Ralph o.
Brewster, one of the Republican cam
didatcs for governor, spoke to n large
audience in the auditorium of the
Methodist Episcopal Church. The
room was crowded. Not only had
many HalIowell people gathered to
hear the speaker of the evening, but
delegations came from Augusta and
Gardiner. There was an excellent
musical program under the leader
ship of choif. master Walter Colby.
The hymns sung were Onward

Senator Brewster's address was
upon the subject of 1.-THE Public
School and Religious Education" He
began with the. quotation, "CiviliZa-
ton has folded it's tents and is again
on the arch" From this he went
on to speak of the unrest in the
world today. particularly in the so
cial life of the day, the increase in
divorce and in crime. AS to the gen.
eral attitude towards prohibition, he
said that the consequence of ignor-
ing one law was the undermining Of
the whole structure. making Of us

From this question he went on to
the signs Of unrest across the seas,
England with its labor government,
Russia in the grip Of communism.
and then came again to America
