But how of the snare drums sounding from could a poor youth who scarcely the big top just a few feet away. He spoke English express his admiration for the star of the show? hurried across the In the early part of the season, areaway which was the actor's encolstraw-littere- d trance to the circus. The gayly ored pennants floated In the breeze high above the mammoth canvas. Performers In gay costumes lounged liesurely about the rear of the tent awaiting the grand finale. Lumbering elephants pushed and heaved to move the animal aages into the menagerie tent. The big, tawny cats snarled viciously in anger at having been returned to confinement again after their performance. But Tony was oblivious to all this activity as he moved intently into the tent, and slipped quietly onto the grass near the end of the hippodrome track. His position gave him a commanding view of the space directly over the center ring. Multicolored spotlights played upon the spangled figure of a dainty lady silhouetted against the tent top. The gentle music of a waltz now wafted through the tent from the bandstand. Poised upon the tiny platform, 80 feet above the ground, stood the petite Annette queen of the aeriaiists. Many said she was the greatest since Langtry. The swinging bar floated rhythmically back and forth as she swung it gently and evenly away from her. Far across the space atop the tent, her assistant swung a similar bar back and forth. Annette was readying herself for the highlight of her performance the feature attraction of America's greatest circus. She was about to perform her triple somersault, defying death, as she swung her lovely, slim body through the top of the tent. There were no nets beneath! The slightest mlscue would spell Instant death for the Intrepid Annette. With the 4,000 spectators, Tony tared upward as the drums again began their ominous roll, and Annette floated out on her swinging bar. A silent pause! Then the drums increased their pace furiously, and the leading lady of the big top hurtled out and up toward the roof, her body revolving once began to formulate a plan whereby he might show Annette how he felt for her. During the hours when he was not exhibiting his puppets, Tony carved furiously, creating new properties, scenery, and characters. The triumph of this frenzied activity was a beautiful doll the very Image of Annette. Soon the trapIt was pings were completed. Tony l l fPr W- "-eh J -- j ":.'a :.

Perhaps you would be se kind as to show me how to make them work?" This was even snore than Tony had dreamed might be possible. "Indeed! Indeed!" he shouted enthusiastically. "I shall expect you then tomorrow." The next afternoon, Tony was ready with the puppets long before the dinner hour. He talked to them affectionately as he put them through their paces. To Beppo, the clown, he chuckled: "And now, leetle fonny man, you make the boys and gurls to laugh. no?" The beautifully carved wood en horses pranced and danced as gracefully as their real counter-nart- s in the big tent across the way. But the truly artistic master piece was the replica of Annette. Tenderly, he placed the tiny puppet into place on the aerial swing in his miniature arena. "My beautiful one," he almost whispered, "we shall see If you can do the triple soubresaut, reesking your lovely life!" As the graceful puppet tumbled through space af the behest of Tony's nimble fingers, he became entranced in his work. He did not see Annette 6lip into the tent.
