A gang of the toughest. tougest.
softest-hearted guys that Wash
ington ever sees got a bit chicken
hearted on the banks of the Ana
costa River just before shutdown
yesterday.
Like all good circus roustabouts,
they scowled their fiercest when
their eyes got. little bit misty
and almost to man they said the
seasons first unfurling of the
Ringing Brothers-Barnum and
Bailey Big Top was just another
job to them. The circus opens
Tuesday and runs through Sun
day.
In wind, rain and blistering
heat, they'll raise the tremendous
sheets of canvas from now until
fall so the greatest show on the
earth can go on-on time. And all
around the country. Here today
and gone tomorrow to Pittsburgh,
Cumberland. Baltimore.
Canvas New and Stiff.
But the canvas and the ropes
were brand new yesterday. They
were tough to stretch and handle.
The 16 pound sledge hammers
didn't alw avs hit square and hard
like they will in a few weeks.
The new paint had sun-blist-
|ered and peeled from the tower
ing center poles. They had to be
|repainted.
Rips appeared in the new can
vas.
The bread man hadn't appeared
lat 3 p. m. and no one had eaten
since breakfast.
Yet the work went on. Some
how everything was done. There
were no tantrums. Once in awhile
Ia pusher Cor foreman) would call
out just loud enough for new
man to hear: "Hey. you in the
red cap! Let's get your back into
Iit-I'm hungry, too."
And "Possum" and "Pot Belly
and big fat "Slim"-guys that no
power on earth can ever regiment
pitched in and worked like a
finely tuned machine.
Germans Tried to Figure it Out.

costs) usually charge premium
prices, are facing q sales vacuum

The trade weekly said q strike

Q wage increase would raise their
