There is a sudden pause in the activities of the great rings; a hush tails over the spectators as the trumpets blare and the curtains part the star performers! Slowly they come into view and spread themselves into a panorama cover- ing the past four years of this illustrious group. See. there arc the very first officers, Kammelkamp. Conover, and Johnson: and scenes from that never-to-be- forgotten “Too Many Cooks,” the only performance ever given hv a set of players during their first year in the circus. A little closer stands a second set of officers. God hey, Donahoe, and Sturdy; then scenes from the “Mystery Man and “Blind Dates,” these were also the first of such performances that had ever been produced by artists in their second year with the circus. The money from this helped to huy some new curtains for the tent. Nearer ami clearer the picture appears now with Donahoe. Cully, and Conover, and a swaying line of figures, the Grand March of the famous Prom, the first to he held outside of the tent and in a hig hotel. Elevated now to the statues of star performers, acknowledged leaders in the grand show, they stand with such able advisors as llaskel and Cully, four years of tumult passed, four years of winning over almost impossible odds, four years of learning to he good sports, four years under the guidance of the finest advisor any class could ever wish. Four years—and wasn't it worth it? The thrill that comes with victory, the knowledge of work well-done, an envied place in the annals of Circus history won because of a «logged struggle to leave behind every obstacle. It was worth it twice and thrice over—And now' we raise a hand in farewell. F tmrlven Ifffa faJk V
