1 have explained before that by
"phony broad A" I mean such pro-
nunciations as "ahsk. 1ahst. ahfter,
cafn't. dahnce, bahth" in the speech
of radio and movie people who are
not New Englanders, and who affect
the broad A in the silly belief that
it will make them sound cultured.
The broad A is quite proper In the
speech of those to whom it is native.
But, and here is a most important
but, it Is q sectional trait of speech,
and has no bearing whatever on
ones culture, education, family
background, or social station. About
lao, ,000, 900 Americans do not use the
broad A in any of the so-called

Despite the fine fervor Of Holly

For many centuries there have
been jugglers and acrobats who have
tried to amuse the public. They
have performed stunts with balls,
Indian clubs and other objects. They
also have done a great deal OF leap
ing and balancing.
Cinouevalli ranks as one of the
great iugglers of modern times. He
grew famous because he was able TO
catch q cannon ball on his neck.
OF course the cannon ball was not
fired at him from a high-poWered
cannon. It came through the air
gently enough, but it is clever to be
able to catch any kind Of an iron
ball, with only the neck to receive it..
I would never advise any one to try
that. A broken neck is something
which few of us care to have!
Even more clever, perhaps. was the
trick which this iuggler learned to
do with billiard balls. He was able
to balance two of them, one over the
other. on the end of billiard cue

spare time for IS years before he
was able to master it. Any one can
try that stunt with safety, II ne is
careful not to let billiard ball drop
down on his head.
A special kind of acrobat Is known
as a "leaper." and his special work
is to Jump into the air, usually from
a springboard. Often he leaps over
a row of animals. making one or
two somersaults while above them.
An example of such leap was given
bv Billy Pape when he made
somersault over Ave elephants and
two camels. The distance he COW
cred was Al feet 6 inches.
During the past century. leapers
were busy at circuses and elsewhere.
Some of them wanted to make a
triple somersault, but this proved
to be a dangerous thing. Johnny
Aymer tried it during a circus act
an the Isle of Wight but broke his
neck and died. The same fate met
