“It's nil perfectly absurd,” said the
elephant at (he circus.
‘‘Think of them giving me an in
strument like this Velio (us it’s called)
to play,” sold the second elephant,
named Jim.
“Well, look at this fiddle of mine,”
said the first elephant, named Jamie.
“It does seem pretty funny,” said
a third elephant named Norton as he
looked at the bugle which he was sup
posed to blow. There were six ele
phants in the hand.
“Do you know when you piny what
you’re playing?” asked Jim.
“I know I'm playing the same tune
as you are,” said Jamie. "Do you
know what that Is?”.
"I too know I’m playing the same
tune as you are, or that I am sup
posed to,” said Jim. "But I am sure
I don't know what it Is.”
"Do you know?” they asked Norton.
"Well,” said Norton, "I know we're
supposed to play a number of tunes.
The thing I am always afraid of is
that we may each he playing a differ
ent tune at the same time. But I
don't suppose we would be, as we have
good memories.”
“It's a jolly'good thing we have,
too,” said Jim, "for if we hadn't, 1 am
sure I don’t know what would happen
to the music. It would he pretty funny
music.”
"That It would,” said Jamie. "To
be sure, I can remember which tunes
we play and how we play them—I
mean In what order and which of us
plays which Instrument. I could nev
er forget the queer Instrument I play
and the weird sounds that it makes.”
"Nor eould I,” said Jim.
"Nor could I,” said Norton.
“I think that is the great thing that
helps us,” said Jamie. “If it weren’t
for memories, just think what a ter
rible time we would have. We would
simply have the worst time im
aginable, getting all mixed up in in
struments. tunes and notes and all.
As it Is, we do pretty well. The

The Florence Music Club was
charmingly entertained on Wednes
day afternoon by Mrs. A. H. Gasquo,
at her beautiful new home on South
Irby street.
Many matters of interest were dis
cussed at this meeting—the advisa
bility of joining the South. Carolina
Branch of the National Musical Fede
ration a new organization, in Colum
bia, among others.
The Club also pledged an amount
to aid the other Music Clubs of ttie
state in endowing a music scholar
ship. Mrs. J. D. Smyser, the delegate
to the State Federation in Rook
Hill, gave a most interesting account
of the meeting. She brought back
with her several new ideas and sug-
gestions which the Club expects to
put into operation witli the opening
of the new year’s work next fall.
Plans were also made to raise the
•money to finance the opera .which the
Club expects to present next fall.
At this meeting, Mr. Robert Lee
rendered a violin solo which he ex
pects to play before the Columbia
Music Society next week. Mrs. J. (i.
McMaster sang a beautiful vocal se
lection.
Following the program, the hostess
served a delicious sweet course, con
sisting cf block cream and cake in
the Club colors—yellow and white.
Mrs. C. L. Boineet, Miss Fenton, Mrs.
Watkins, of Scotland Neck, N. ('., and
a new member, Mrs. K. M. Hicks,
were cordially welcomed by the Club.

make bows with our trunks. J. don’t
really think, even considering our fine
memories, that we’re as great musi
cians as the performing seals. They
play with more spirit and tliey are
fine at all their tricks.
"Yes,” continued Jamie. ‘Tliey
play an excellent game of hall, though
we can do that, too. But they look
so fine ami funny and slippery as they
play and as their heads wave about.
"They seem so clever because they
haven’t our trunks or great legs to
help them out. “Yes, they’re a great
addition to the circus and as clever as
any creatures can be."
“Do you know,” said. Norton, "I’ye
heard that people tit the circus have
noticed our serious and solemn expres
sions?" ,
“Why do you say sergms and solemn
when one word will do the trick?”
asked Jamie.
"Oh well,” said Norton, "It is all
right. I have time. I’m not due to
go in the ring for quite a little while.”
"That’s so,” agreed Jamie.
“Pray continue what yoti were about
to say and which I so rudely inter
rupted.”
"I was going to say that I had heard
that folks had noticed how serious we
looked when we were playing,'and
that they had spoken about it.”
“Good,” said Jamie. "Then they
may thluk we're great musicians and
that we have great elephant souls and
that we would be in big city orchestras
and perhaps play In operas were it
not for the fact that we had promised
ourselves to the circus for a good cum
ber of years.
“Yes, they may think that, for we
mustn't tell them that our great and
wonderful memories ‘are the things
about us ‘that makes us musicians.
We can remember what we're to play
and how we're to play it rather than
being aide to play because we are mu
sical to our finger tips, as the saying
goes.
“It would be better In our case to
say •musical to our trunk tips. I sup
pose. But we’re not that, we’ve only
good memories. No matter, we're part
of the music of the circus and folks
listen to us and e’ap at us, so as
that's all tliey seem to want us for,
let utr not worry over our shortcom
ings, musically.”

street behind a yoiing woman who
was holding her s| v irt rather high.
After an argument as to the merits
of the case, one of the men stepped
forward and said: “Rardon’iiuy miss,
but aren’t you holding your skirt
rather high?”
‘.‘Haven’t .I a perfect right?’ she
snapped.
