song as irresistible to little boya and

childhood's song of songs "Circus
Day."
For today Is circus day and tha

the circus, as it is known in this land
of ours, grew up with the country.
For generations tt brought a holiday
to communities that depended upon
It for their annual pilgrimage into
playland, for a few hours surcease
f,rom the daily toil In fields and the
sjiops, the back-breaking task of hew
ling out the fair and plenteous civili
sation that is ours. And. perhaps,
that is why the thrill of circus day
persists. It is in our blood.
So. alarm clocks sang this morn
ing. - Tousled heads tossed pettishly
n moment and then their owners
hopped out of bed with glad shouts.
There were sea mpe rings through
hallways, pleadings with grownups
to hurry, hurry, hurry. Then the
swift journey to the railroad yards
where long red and white trains
come to rest on sidings with sharp
whistlings of engines, hissing of air
