LITTLE CORNER FOR LITTLE PEOPLE THE FIRST CIRCUS I ATTENDE ,, It was in the year 1899 that our school teacher took us. to see the circus. In our class was one little boy called Leo, better known to us as Skeet, who was very talkative, and as we passed into a sideshow, Skeet saw a man punching a bag Say, Nfr. Bertie, what's that man doing?n HWhat do you mean ? That man over there. 0113 he's punching a bagf How punching it P I donit know. Then how do you know he's punching it? Be still, Leo. What's that over there? Thatts a giant negro? ttWho made him black? itKeep quiet W But you said he was black. HOf course he is. i'Who told you he was? Now if you don't behave, out you'll go. HDo you pay to go out ? No. HYou did to get in, didn't you ? Yes. uThen why not to get out? Just then the manager called everybody on the other side of the tent, where the cowboys are exhibiting their talents. What's a cowboy, Mr. Bertie? uA man who works on a ranch? How can he be a man when he's a boy P uShut up, everybody is looking at us? Are there calfboys, too, Xlr, Bertie ? HFor the love of Mike, 110 ! hWhy for the love of Mike, is he a teacher; too? Next we came to the performing elephant, and the first thing Leo spied was its trunk. Say. Mr. Bertie, why do elephants have two tails? They have only one, the other is his trunk ttAunt Martha's got a trunk, but it ainit like that.n :tOf course not, they use them to eat with. See him gathering the hay? But Aunt Martha puts dresses in her trunk. uThat will do, Leo, we are going now. Where ? Home, of Course. uWhat does Course mean P Nothing. IS that all it means? Just as we were going out of the door, one of the zebras ran past us. 'iWhat was that, Mr. Bertie? hA zebra What's It zebra ? nA striped horse. HWho stripes them? HT don't know. Why don't they make them diFferent colors instead of black and white? I dont know.h Did you ever stripe one, Mn Bertie? No. no, no V and. he pushed Skeet through the gateway. iThis is the last time you'll go with me, Leo, as long as I iivef' EMihen you're dead, Mr. Bertie. we cant go alongf' Our car came, and Mr. Bertie put us on and paid the conductor a five cent piece for The two of us. Skeet wanted to know where the other nicklc was, but Mr Bertie said nothing. uThe conductor don't know we're ten years old, or he'd want that other nickle. HShut up You want it for beer, don't you ? MNOIL HFor a cigar ? uNo. I'What for, then? For something to tie that little trap of yours 1 and giving Leo a very black look he left the car, and Leo fell asleep. This was my first experience at a circus, and one I shall never forget. ERNEST Wt STOCK MEIER.
