ELAT, in a single sentonce, dcaarihes the mammoth amuseluent enterprise which bears the
name, Ringling Brothers. It is more than an
enterprise;it is an institution. Known throughout the
world, fa~oredbeyond. all compare by its thousanr~s
upon tbonsands of pahona, it bas long stood for the
flne~t,
the graatast and most acceptable in the realm
of maeeive entertainment, Mwaysr accorded highest
honors, it ie now outstripping i t a own records. For
fie r,filfissdcircus which is now touring America is a
'rcus, a more wonderful circus and better
n any yet given the American public by me
Rm.Ch~rs.

,
r&n.Circus patrons know the value and the cert#ahty
of such a promise. So familiar hamthe plzl~licBecome
with the fact that each year sees enornous augnzentahtou.8, ~plendidimprovementi and the addition of
magtmcent new features, that the return of the
Rhgliug Brothers giant inntitutioa always arouses
keen expectancy. Never has anticipation met wJth
disappointment. Rather bas the bonntifulness of the
mrpriaea surpassedthat which patrons have bean led
t o expect. It has been by keeping their promiaes-by
giviPg even more than was looked for - that the
Ringling Brothers have gained and held the public's
ooddence. This season's o i r a will
~ ~ mnltiply that
e a hundred-fold. In a country having but
gs and where work too often shuts out play,
ent of the Worldfs Greatest Shows is always
hailed wit11 delight. For Rlngling Brothers long ago
created a new natioiai holiday. W o n 8 of people
revel in the merriment. of this annual froIfc. They
ehoose to eee Ringling Brothers Circus because years
of experience has taught them that it is the biggest,
the best and the most instructive in the world. Its
great, glittering free street parade is aImaya Eiure t o
be the longest, the finest and the most complete. If8
menagerie i a far larger than all others and ~ l ~ v e
fails
i.
to contain many new and strange creatures before
unseen. Its stupendous spectacles, mch as this seasoays new and gorgeom fairyland production, CindeyeUa, are of shch magnii3ceuce and magnitude as
to form a feature to be seen with no other chcns,
1ti marveb of arsnic skill and daring are beyond
compare both in number and achiavexuents. Its
horses are the flaest in tho world. Its vast army of
clowns are the funniest and its wonders endless.
Above all, tho entire grogram is made up only of
that which is clean and beautiful to hear, fire@and
remember for weeks after the Great Magic City has
gouo ita way. Thousands upon thonsanda of men
and wornem look back over a span ofgears to the day
when they m5t saw Ringling Brothers ~ i r c w a : Ttemembering the oourteoas treatment andthe comforts
mcarded them and the vastneas of the performances
through all the years of their patronage, they now
take their children to see this best loved amnaemerrt
