times principally be cause thcn entertainments were neither as frequent nor as diver sified as now and therefore were more generally taken advantage of when they were available From the very rst announce ment of the coming of the circus through thevmcdium of immense billboards hurriedly erected and covered with streaming pictures of gaudilydrcssccipeiformers and of thc hpge unknown and vicious animals and reptiles the ordinary Barrie boy of those times gave up most of his thoughts by day and his dreams by night to the coming couple of weeks later of that most wonderful of attractionstile circus Those lavishly illustrated rcp resentallons of fearful antedll uvlan dinosaurs and their sev eral relations must have been of the same family as those depleted in the present moving picture The Lost World which note is showing in Barrie picturehollse this week so fairly good idea may eas ily be gained of the terrible ncss of those oldlime circus billboards And every old
