‘Boy Reporter’ Tells of Wonders in Gentry Show

(It’s great to be a boy and see the wonders of a circus. Jimmy Clark, son of Heze Clark, visited Gentry Brothers dog and pony show and James Patterson’s wild animal circus Monday night. He tells of the wonderful sights as only a boy can see them. —Editor’s note.) By JIMMY CLARK. '• Oh, boy, it was some supper and a real show. Mayor Shank was there and Mrs. Shank was there to try to take care of him. I never expected to see the mayor quit but he did. I would have quit, too, If I had eaten as much supper as he did. Before the supper we went over to see the elephants of the Gentry Brothers and Patterson show, and I fed them peanuts. Modock was my favorite elephant. They measured this elephant and it was eighteen feet 6 inches around him. They say he weighed 9:600 pounds. Gee, I’d hate to {>e under him 'like that big mat* was in the show. , 1 But I must tell you about that supper. We had roasting ears, chicken, and I had the white meat, biscuits and lots of them, sliced tomatoes, mashed potatoes, grape punch, salad, Ue cream, chocolate cake and cherry pie. I may have forgotten some of the things we had, but it sure was a supper and the mayor and I enjoyed it. Then Mr. Patterson, the man who owns the show, called on the mayor to speak. Then we went back to the big tent to ee she animals. I asked the mayor what animals he liked best. He said "the monks." Baby Lion Would Make a Great Pet for a Boy Then I asked the mayor’s wife what animals she liked best and she said she liked the ponies the best, and I agreed with her. I went to see the lions. "In one end of the cage was a baby lion and its, mother. They said jbe baby lion was ten days old. It was the size of a cat. I would like to have held it, but the show man said the baby hen’s mother might object. Mr. Patterson took us to see the horses. It made me think of the horse show at the fair ground. I saw just outside of the tent "Jerry,” the clown pig. He just looked like any other pig. They showed me the goats and then the dogs. Billy, the biggest collie of the bunch, was my favorite. They Introduced me to Robert Rrinley. the colored man who has charge of the dpgs. He said he was the original dark town and had been with this show twenty-threee years. He showed me “Diamond,” the highest jumping greyhound in the world. Then he told me all about greyhounds: Then Mr. Patterson took us to see the mules. There were eight white mules, and he said they all could kick. But I forgot to tell about Ginger, the oldest dog with the show. He is seventeen years old and has been with the show all his life. He can a pony-.nd do many tricks. This Circus Starts t Out Like a Scream At the start of the show a little girl came into the big tent and went to sleep. And a big tall man said she was dreaming. She was in fairyland. Fairies danced around her. There was a parade with elephants, clowns, Indians, cowboys, savages, pretty ladies riding on horses, and a band.

Then the Uttle girl awoke up, but all the rest of the show just seemed like a dream of fairyland to me. I liked Capt. John Meyers and his lions most. Then i liked the act where the man held himself by one finger and chinned himself. Os course I liked the jumping of the , greyhounds and "Diamond” Jumped highest. ' / * The best thing the clowns did was when they tried to burn another clown in a box, and he turned to a devil and Jumped out and chased tlffem. Then I like the pony stunts, and the elephants. Honest, I Just liked the whole show. The only thing I was Borry about was I didn’t get to stay and see the wild west show and the wrestling match.
