One of the greatest arrays of clowns
ever cgried on tour by an American
circus is found with the Walter l.
NJ liu Cir us this year There are .
forty Oh funny fellows count EN-, forty
and their latest laugh provoking Great
ions are guaranteed to bring forth the
keenest Inerriment of the year. These
clowns are all guaranteed laugh -getters
and many have been seen with the
greatest amusement organizations to
be found in Europe.
The role of clown is no easy one
The modern clown is a paradox. He
is the same as In the days Of celebrat-
ed Dan Rice, back in the past cen
tury, and yet he is different clown
The explanation? Well in this way
he is the same in that be paints his
face in yer nillion and white and adj
heres to the time-h nared ridiculous
pattern in his dress, he is different be-
cause of the fact that his work of today
practically all pantonine and be
never reverts to the old habit Of
clowns OF former days, who almost
exclusively made up his act of reel
tations, songs, and jokes.
The change in the clowns method
Of work is the logical result of. shift
ting conditions in the circus world
In other days, when one ring sufficed
the tent was ne essarily small, a fact
(which permitted the clown to be clear
distinctly every where under the canvas
At that time one act was quite enough
for such limited audience. And the
clown being to contribute his share
on the pr gram happily hit upon the
pleasing and successful idea of singing
Joking and reciting.
Nowadays all is changed. Tents
have been enlarged to care for many
additional rings and are of huge pr,
portions. 1t is impossible for the
clown voice to be heard IRON every
point and SO naturally he has to en-
tilely in pantonine, or dumb acting. .
There are forty clowns with the Wal
teri. Main Circus who form the
greatest collection of this sort ever
seen here. The International favorite
Harry La Pearl heads. the
list, and among the foremost in his
support are Fred Leslie. Chick Reed
Lou Hershey, Harry 10y, Rube
Dyer, Eddie Palmer, George st. John.

lie OF Nanhlselle, as sexton OF the
