one boxing elephant, comic
’ clown elephant and' one 'bicycle
' riding elephant. Blondin, the
rope-walking horse ^vas another
feature attraction, star of p
segment of the show with per
forming stallions, trick ponies
■ and comic donkeys.
Adam Forepaugh Jr. was bill-
- ed as - “the most gifted teacher
‘ of the brute creation that ever
’ lived.” He was reputed to have
mastered evey living creature
from the lordly elephant to the
wild and wayward hyena, and
his part in the show consisted
of a dangerous few hours with
a den of “ferrocious lions and
tigers”.
There was a full band of
fully armed ’and: lawless Mexi-
■ can Rangers in the show with a
1 display of wild horse and buf-
! falo1 roping . . . and if you think
' that sounds hard to believe,
the handbill reported that 1,750
1 people were “actually ernploy-
1 ed and on the pay-roll” of the
Forepaugh Show. It advertised
80 sensational acts and said the
; “air was filled with daring
aerialists”.
Daily parades were led 'by a
Cowboy Brass Band direct from
the Wild Frontier. As if that
wasn’t enough, all members of
the band were mounted on
■horseback and I guess, played
their instruments while sitting
in the saddle.
Capt. A. H. Bogardus was the
star of the Wild West Show af
filiated' with the circus. Capt.
Bogardus. claimed to have kill
ed’ 1,000 pigeons without one
miss as they .flew from a trap
and With his four famous sons,
Eugene, Henry, Edward and
Peter, staged a mail coach rob
bery each performance.
The show was supposed to ar
rive in Clinton in seventy rail
way cars r. . . I wonder if it
ever did. Does anyone know?
Sometimes we thiiilc today’s
promotion for many shows is a"Colquhoun, Harold Black, Wil-
little exaggerated, but I really ” -----
. wonder if it can compare to the
kind of publicity that preceded
the Forepaugh S.bow of the late
1800’s. Certainly it Was’ an en
ticing bit. of advertisement
which must have conned many
people into the “big top”.* I
wonder what really happened
within that’ tent, 'but we’ll prob
ably never know.
•T » * .
You’ve heard about the Last
Rose of Summer? Well we have
them, right here at the News-
Recoird office.
Tom Leppington picked them
and brought them to our office
last Tuesday. They were still
quite lovely and we are pleased
as- usual to have them.
Mr. Leppington also brought
us a stem containing two
dahlia blooms .\ . rather un
usual because one bloom is deep
red edged with white and the
other is without any traces of
white at all.

Oui- handsome young book
keeper here at the News-
Record reminded me to report
that clocks Should be turned
back this Saturday night when
you are preparing for bed. We
suspect that being a bachelor,
our bookkeeper is anxiously a-
waiting. an extra hour with the
lucky girl with: whom, he will'
spend Saturday evening .....
but we agree with him that it
is confusing for some folk who
wonder whether the clocks
should be set ahead or back . . .
how dbes that little verse go?
. . . spring ahead, fall back . .

At least two phone calls were
received at the Clinton News-s
Record on Tuesday from moth
ers whp. were upset because
their children were losing out
because of Clinton’s inability
to provide .activity for ’the
young people. They mentioned
that adult.entertainment Seem
ed to take. precedenc|e oyer
everything else and said that
Clintonians are largely to blame
for the predicaments many
youngsters find themselves in
during their, 'teen years.
The same day, one Clinton
youngster . brought the follow^

They are not written by an

child’s thinking about Clinton

FROM OBLIVION
TO BOREDOM
“What is a nice girl like me
doing in a town like this?
“I am talking about my pre
sent surroundings, namely Clin
ton; and about the somewhat
too peaceful surroundings in
which it nestles. .Most of the
people here are friendly ■ but,
so are most of the people
everywhere.
“Last summer, my family
undertook a great change. Af
ter years of planning to move,
we finally came to Clinton
where we now live in a large
roomy home on a corner lot.
sphere is a good deal of room
to play and we are enjoying
this stimulating experience
away from Londbn where we
lived’.
“I feel, strongly that the
people in a small community
have no appreciation for the
city, They receive a misguided
impression of one large slum
and of great masses of un
heeding people. 'Jhey aye
wrong.! People in the city aye
just as warm as townfolk. I
am of the opinion that people
from a town go to the city ex
pecting everyone, to be a sullen
faced stranger and do not try
to be friendly themselves. You
have-got to give to get!
-’In case you wonder about
the title, I will try to explain
it. When I lived in the city, it
was in oblivion, 'because I was
not known by everyone; but
here in Clinton, I dwell in bore-
, dom because this town is indfo-
lent and the people live in a.
vacuum, moukled by ti'ieir
grandparents, remodelled by
their parents, and taken for
granted by too many of this
generation.”
