BELLEVUE GIRLS STAGE A CIRCUS Realistic from t};e Invitation of the Barker to the Classy Concert at the Finish. SOMETHING TO EAT AS WELL “Ladles and gentiemen, right this way,” called the barker.

Into the big dining room, com- pletely transtormed into a rope-encircled circus, with rows upon rows of seats for the crowd, marched the parade. First came the ringleader In a ‘diminutive car which bore the sign, “And a Little Ford 8hall Lead Them.” Then came the fun- nlest clowns, afoot or on tiny bicyelus; the motley band, a fat lady, a living pumpkin, a wild woman from Borneo, an Egyptian snake charmer, performing monkeys with Glotto, their Itallan keeper; Mutt and Jeff, Caesar and Cleopatra and & host of wild and woolly animals wha had forsaken their native state to grace the performance. ‘When the thunders of applause, which I e L L When CHRISTY MATHEWSON #reeted the parade, kad died away, and the last flerce beast had disappeared to its cage, Miss Marguerite Diddock, alias Fiff Fijon!, band leador and ring master, started the show. And such a show! Lulu, the bareback rider sailed around on her praneing wooden steed with an airy grace beyond compare. Monkeys, clowns, fat ladies and tight rope walk- ers did their clevereat tricks. Caesar and Cleopatra raced in their chariots in characteristic Latin foshion. The antica of the McGinty family from Mars evoked storms of applause. These ungainly creatures with their enormous colored heads and their liliputian bodies danced about at the prod of a pole until the assembled multitude threatened to split its sides with laughing. Only then, out of compassion for the frailty of poor earth-born mortals, did they desist. The program reachod itz climax in a mammoth concer§y This musical event held a pecullar Interest for everyone present because by right of established custom the songs which it included con- tained spicy bits of pointed humor aimed at all the prncipal personages of the col- lege.
