In the tents are performances
of varied characters, moving ,
pictures most realistic, charming
and bewildering to behold. The i
Barkoot company has made good |
every promise. The shows are
well worth seeing. There is not a
single feature to which the slightest I
objection can be made. All con- '
ncctcd with the company are decent, .
polite, kind and courteous. ,
This company deserves to be |
classed far above the majority of i
travelling carnivals, and wisely has |
adopted the name of the Barkoot
Amusement Company which is I
quite suitable to distinguish it from |
others on the road.
The contest for Queen of the Carnival
