THE AIR CIRCUS By Mary Graham Bonner

Certainly the Little Black Clock could turn the time way ahead when John and Peggy could go to a circus up in the air.
 They started now for the big circus tent. Their plane took it's turn in landing upon the special landing field under the huge circus tent. The circus tent was inside a very large dirigible, which re- minded John and Peggy of pictures of a Zeppelin they had seen. But it was much, much larger Not only was there great tent inside it, but there was a smaller tent for the animals, and a tent where the cir GUS performers sat and rested
 Attached to the under part of this huge dirigible was the landing platform, where the planes of those who had come to the circus were parked
 Standing outside the tent was man dressed in bright red, urging all to come inside.
 Buy your tickets here, ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls.
 Right this way to the big tent, where you will behold the marvels of this and every age-the finest trapeze performers, the greatest of animals, the funniest of clowns.
 Step this way, ladies and gentle men. This way to the big tent"
 John and Peggy and the Little Black Clock went along with the crowd. No one seemed to notice them That was natural. Every one was interested in the circus.
 It didn't seem possible that they were way up in the air. Why, as Peggy said, it even had the dear good old familiar smell of regu- lar circus!

Hands bespeak the lady-so it
has been said for more centuries
than we can remember. And yet,
in the eager JOY on sports and out

seems in grave danger OF forgetting
this age-old counsel.
Hands require special care after
the vacation, and nails, particularly,
are likely to show signs OF neglec-'
So shall devote this entire article
TO the care of the nails: for remem-

the hands are, they will not be truly

Goodies for the School Lunch
how important-but how difficult
to think of in the early morning
rush when every minute counts!
Perhaps no other dainty appeals to
children quite as much as does a
fruited gelatin or a charlotte. Yet
few mothers recall this when plan
ming these desserts for family meals.
Keep on hand a supply of ice
cream containers (they cost only a
cent or two) so that next time you
prepare a fruit loaf or a chocolate
Jelly, Bavarian cream or charlotte,
w. may pour part of it into this
safe container and set it aside tor
the school lunch the following day.
! And make it a surprise-never
even limited until the box is opened.
At best the cold lunch leaves much
to be desired, when appetites are
finicky. 1t is surprising to see how
much these little extras" do to
keep children satisfied.

Their working day was already
fifteen hours old and it would last
at least FIVE hours more.
Tom Hobby had been photo

the wind again. drove into the

of her blistered her vision like the

The wind blew her breath back into
her lungs. If she had not gained
a little support from one stout
bough of the tree she could never
have reached the nNrgin Of the
picture.
