TO BE AT SALEM
The circus offered tbls year Is one
of wonderful novelty. Instead of the
usual single thriller presented by
other circuses, the Rlngling Brothers
are heading their bill with no less
than seven of the greatest and most
sensational acts that have ever been
presented anywhere on earth.
The parade will be given in the
forenoon. It will far surpass the
brilliant pageants which the Rlngling
Brothers have given In past years
having been entirely rebuilt In the
foreign workshops at Liverpool, Eng
land.
