come to the place where Betty Mae Blair is going through many antics as “The Rubber Doll their surprise know no bounds and how Patsey’s mouth opens (as do Holland’s eyes) when she sees Virginia Nash charming seven huge cobras in a corner. The crowning event was the discovery of Jean Rooper and Pauline Nightengale portraying live mummies for interested spectators. Unable to stand any more Patsey and Rolland tiredly leave the circus and start home. When the car strikes an escaped lion there is much excitement. Because the lion was injured. Rolland offers to pay half the bill from Miss Hougham’s Hospital for Cats. This event has finally worn out the whole parly and they go home for dinner and a quiet evening reading Advice to the Lovelorn by Norma Jane Totten and Current Styles by the famous designer Adah Wright.

a dozen oranges, six plates, a table, a dog and a biscuit at the same time. When the master of ceremonies announces Mademoiselle Fifi and her troupe of trained canines, many an excited whistle is heard. T he whistles become even more appreciative as Wanda Woodward leads out twelve Russian wolfhounds. Suddenly the rings are all cleared out and Mr. Fink steps forward. “Now we are going to have our special attractions! First that daring, handsome favorite of the cats: none other than our own famous lion trainer. Glen Macy!“ A tall figure in red and gold dashes bravely into the midst ol ninety-five roaring, hungry lions. He has no means of protection other than a chair, whip and a machine gun. The crowd gasps as one vicious beast lunges toward him. but he quickly repulses the attack with a low growd. For three whole minutes he stays in the flimsy cage with death on one side and the door on the other. Then comes the heart-tearing ride of Doris Mitchell through a hoop of flames. She executes this dangerous trip without a wink of her eye or cry from her lips although the spectators are petrified. Dean Clark is summoned, saunters over and hands out four bags of Mother Postlewaite’s home roasted nuts. He has no sooner taken his leave when a huge cannon is rolled into the center ring. Two men are stuffed into the muzzle and as dead silence falls Vernon Hoover fires the mammoth gun. Bill Tapscott and Norris Thompsen sail headlong over the heads in the big tent and fall on a feather bed supplied for the purpose. Because of the speed with which these two young men usually move, they were very suitable applicants for this job. The next big attraction is the famous girl magician and her beautiful assistant. Agnes, however, has now changed her name to Ziona Berry. After performing many preliminary but difficult tricks. Ziona executes her most brilliant and popular rite. In the center of the tent stands Clara Bren-tano and with a wave of the hand Ziona raises her to the top of the tent where she remains for the duration of the show Before Ziona has disappeared through the door the sound of galloping hoofs, barking guns, and cowboy yodeling arrests the attention of the spectators. The Wild West Show is on. Here comes Johnny Northup, the famous cowboy star of stage, screen, and radio, followed by his band of superior riders. One by one Ronald Rabe. Velton Bynum. James Lever. Frank Wichert. Mary Kathryn Hayes. Wanda Berry, and Marjorie Merkel flash by on their handsome steeds. After this group has held the crowd spellbound with their lassoing, rope twirling, and fancy riding exhibition, they retire to make room for the Spanish element. Two handsome gauchos approach on waltzing black horses. For a short time Rolland and Patsey notice only the bowing, curtsying horses, then their eyes lift to the walnut stained faces of Robert Hartzell. and Kerwin Kerr. After this thriller comes the last, final, and fun niest act of the circus; the pie-eating contest. As contestants are found Betty Anne Crowe. Norma Youngberg. and Hazel Sully, champions of the Northwest. Orient, and Dry Creek Falls respectively. The girls put up a grand battle but underneath an ectoderm of blueberry pie. Betty Anne finally smiles triumphantly. The little hero and heroine now gather the little flock together and prepare to leave, tired but happy. Suddenly the voice of Marjorie Ingram arouses them from a stupor as she invites all and sundry to “see the best side show this side of the Snake River. Having decided to make a day of it. Patsey and Rolland and the two little bothers accept her invitation. On a huge platform arc lined the different wonders and freaks collected from all over the globe. Jo Allen as the fat lady is a great attraction while we find many an admiring eye on the hula dancers. Virginia Alexander and Marjorie Kendrick. To avoid too much competition from the latter Mary Ann Wallace and Olive Merry Warm ington have taken their mermaid paraphernalia to the other end of the stage where they are holding court. Dora McLean. Marie Robinson. Connie Fullmer, and Carol Neuner. the four ubangis are also getting their share of attention but perhaps not the kind they were once used to. When Joe Nissl and Jack Beeler succeed in swallowing one sword apiece many are the loud ' oh’s“ and “ah‘s“ complimenting them on this fine piece of work. No less difficult is the job of eating fire which is accomplished splen didly by Colin Armstrong and Virginia McGuire. When the couple (Pat and Rol
