Foreword All life is a glorious circus, and high school is one of the many performances of the show. On the opening day, the Big Parade passes through the city streets. The bouncing clown clears the way for the long procession. Then come gaudy wagons of red, orange, and blue, witl1 snarling lions peering through bars-wagons with jibbering monkeys hanging by their tails-bizarre wagons that make the paved streets rumble and the clear air resound. At the end, the gay Calliope, with its strange music, calls tl1e crowd to follow. If we do follow, there is no turning back. On we must go to tl1e big tent. Once there, the show goes on. As tl1e crashing music of the brass-band rises above the din of audience and performers, we watch the crazy antics of Harlequin and Punch- inello, and the daring stunts of the spangled lady on her snow white steed. We see the lion from the veldt, the tiger from the Bengal jungles, and tl1e elephant from the Congo as they perform to the snapping whip of the ring-master, in this whirring, booming, ex- citing circus, where each one does his part. Soon the show is over. Stakes are pulled up. Tents are folded away. The circus per- formers depart, leaving the lot which, in another year, will ring with the laughter of new clowns and sparkle with the gaiety of new performers.
