BAKNhli SCOUT SURVEY ON Xnmin in nnntiuin ulKUUo Jo bUIVIINb Circus' tinuOiS " here atjain mill ..outhern Oregon's favorite nluw, G. liarnes' wild unlnml circus is due for showfts on the. North ,vntral ground May 111. (Miff Mr-Do'uiiall- educational director of the show, va in -tiruiuru tuuiiy ,,d told of various circus activ ities. An important improvement f t'e circus Is the inclusion of compete aerial acts, added to the jhow since it was purchased by l,e KincliiiK Hrother company. At his room at the 'Hotel Med ford this forenoon, McDouKall said ,he public often mistakCfO.he husi- t and compares it with the Wm" show of 30 years ago, duo to ft miMim" i--"iiH ... 'c Mi side facts of the business. oft tiroes it is held that the comlnv ,tf a circus to a city means the withdrawal of a large amount of money from the city. This is not true. MclJougall said, inasmuch as about lU'to people are. empluyed by the Barnes circus. Keach one spends some money In the city and the circus as a whole spends $7000 daily for operating expenses, n large per cent of which is expend ed in the town where the show appears. Men and women. McDougal wept on to say. are hut grownup children around the big-top on circus day and the clowns find themselves iierfnrmlng for children of all ages, back In the men's dressing room lit "clown alley." where all the funny men dress, and adjoining it is "buggy -whip row," headquar ters for the boys who crnck the whips. Not far away is "spangle. 1 row," where the. men who wear the 'itifttlts dress and make ready for ttto-higb 'lights. Down In front of WJsi' rows Is "Main street." and ifl ..-lilutl.. lt.i,t. .-(ttttul.ln everything starts moving, with the horses coming out, riders on lliem. as well as other performers in their turn. An interesting fact of Iho dress ing room is that all performers have a small size trunk and no one is allowed a larger one than the next trouper. Mr. .McPougall also gave a com plete description of various circus animals and ended the interview liy saying: "No matter where the circus is today, the tent could Mow down or the animals could die. or the girls fall from the high lights, our motto today and has always lieen, "The show must go on.' " I'rhe debate between , Medford hlch school and Oorvallis hinh school will lie held in the l'resby iprian church tomorrow evening at 8 o'clock, with William Dougherty .ml George Winne upholding the ifffrmative. This debate will de ride the western Oregon ehampion hiii. Ralph It. ItiUley Is the Med ford debate coach.

Wane persuades Caroline, much against her will, to stay for din tr, assuring her that Parados Kon't be there. CHAPTER 1 THE GENIUS OF FLIQUE JYJRS. PARADOS, whom we met In the reception liai, bad been a flue-looking woman in her day, but she was 40 now. Experience and artifice bad en ameled her face with that hardnese which a man carries better than a woman. She gave me a smile, but her eye brows ascended and Caroline turned imploringly to Flique. "This Is my charming friend. Mile. Brent," be beamed. "May I beg a room (or her and a place at your table?" "Yes, indeed," the woman ans wered. "I must have been out when you arrived." "Did I not meet her myself?" Flique Interposed neatly. "Mademoi selle Breut 1b ol the illustrious Brents, of whom monsieur your husband has spoken. Monsieur called in tboso famous ones, Mor rison and Hunt, and to assist them, who is more competent than made moiselle, the last at her line?" I wondered what Parados would say when he came out ot his library. "1 didn't know my husband had sent for you, Miss Brent." "Ah, that husband ot yours," Flique chuckled. "He is the origi nal, yes. Monsieur met mademoi selle in San Francisco." Caroline's embarrassment was pitiable. It must have touched Mrs. Parades. "We are elad to have you with us, anyhow," she said. "You are very kind, Mrs. Para dos," Bho said. "I hadn't expected to stay but M. Flique insisted" "M. Flique has a way, with him," Mrs. Parados remarked dryly. A light footfall drew our eyes up the handsome staircase. .Cella was descending slowly, lovely in a scanty dinner gown. Mrs. Para dos' hands were clenched. The hatred In her eyes as she looked up Johns' manner was nervous. at Celia shocked me. Cella was smiling. "Who Is this golden one?" the soprano voice of Aimtola Flique suddenly deoidudcd. "Come, ma chertc." and he took Cella's hand and led her to Caroline. "1 present my little friend. Mile. Brent. This golden one Is our Cella Ferris, mademoiselle. You will be friends, yes? It cannot be otherwise." We were all laughing now, even Mrs. Parados, nnd I began to appre ciate the peculiar genius of Anatole Flique. "M. Flique Is a dear and he says nothing so nicely that we love to listen," Cella said lightly. Caroline laughed. "You are more than kind, you and Mrs. Parados. I know I shall love San Lucas." "It's enchanting," Cella drawled. "WTM.IAMH CIIKKK, Ore. May .".-(Special.) Wiltna U e r n i e e Spnrlin, born l(?)iruary 2W. 1 IMM, nt Vancouver. Wash ("lled April L'l' at the home of jV parents.

"There is a little georgette the color of mademoiselle's eyes if your wardrobe" "Oh, surely," Cella Interrupled "Come alQg, Miss Brent. We'vi just Ave minutes." Cella linked her arm In Caroline t aud they flew up the hnndsonr stair. Flique beamed. "You're too much of a diploma tor this house. M. Flique," Mr Parados said In a brittle voice "You should ho e Qme ten years ago.Q "It desobtes rue that you are right, matMme," Flique replied gravely. "Today is madame's birth day," he said gently, "and the twentieth um anniversary of her wedding, yes? May 1 felicitate madame?" Fllquo inquired. Mrs. Parados' face was hardened. She stared at Flique and then, with a sob, fled up the stair. "Une temme curieuse." Flique muttered. "Come, my friend, M. le Professeur Is in the sun-room "M. le Profosseur," whom we found reading a newspaper, was a slender, elderly man with brow.u eyes and thlck lensed glasses, a neat gray beard anil a slightly nervous manner. Flique Intro duced him as Herbert Johns, the custodian ot the fort. "Mr. Parados spoke of your coin ing," Professor Johns said agree ably, "but I expected an older man." "it would be Morrison, the senior partner, ot whom be spoke," 1 pointed out, tired ot repealing the explanation. "Morrison was-.IIW Flique excused blmself with the remark that ho had "a composition to prepare" and took himself off to the other end ot the sun-room. "I am intensely interested In that old fort ot yours," 1 laughed, drop ping Into a chair. "Mine?" he murmured, lifting bis eyebrows. "1 wish it were." An underlying bitterness pene trated the delicate surface wist ful ness ot his expression. "Ot course It Is Mr. Parados property," 1 hastened to say, "hut you have lived In It and taken care ot it long enough to Justify you In speaking ot it as your own." "So it would seem after 20 years," be agreed, drumming nerv ously on his chair. "But life llsell is only a tenancy. Nothing Is per manent except death, and our silly dreams don't count then. But here 1 am talking nonsense," nnd his negative personality again wus steeped In his smile. "You must come over as often as you please. We'll have some good talks. If you find me queer, you won't mind, eb?" . I was touched by a beaten look in Johns' magnified eyes. "People out ot the common have a fascination for me," I laughed. "You are busy?" He nodded. "I'm working on a text book on marine biology. Are you interested In tbatsortof thing?" "I'm afraid you'd find me a dull pupil." 1 grinned. Flique was sealing an envelope. Ho proceeded to address It. , Professor Johns drummed on the arm of his chair. "M. Flique Is at tached to the Paris Surete. 1 un derstand that he Is their cleverest Investigator." This significant bit of Informa tion left me with a cold feeling. A little gong sounded and I followed Professor Johns Into the dining room.
