Pawnee Bros. Circus
To Show Here Monday
—Pawnee Bros. -Circus is- coming— to Washington Monday, April 30, for afternoon and evening performances at 3 and 8 p.m.
Doors open one hour earlier to allow time to inspect the big menagerie.
The circus is under the auspices of Rappahannock Volunteer Fire Co. This is the first circus to show in Washington for a number of years.
Clowns are the comic strips and cartoons to the Pawnee Bros. Circus. They brighten the performance the same way Micky Mouse and Donald Duck enliven your movie programs. Their merry interludes relieve the tension of thrilling aerialists and acrobatic feats and exciting animal acts. But make no mistake about the clowns work being a snap.
The ability to make people laugh nowadays is an altogether exacting art and calls for a keen knowledge of human psychology and great gifts of originality.
