"Bully show," announced the lad. "Didn't know which way to look,
there was so much to be seen."

"How would you like to join the show and be a real circus man?"
demanded Phil.

"Great!"

"Maybe I can fix it for you."

"You?"

"Yes."

"Don't give me such a shock, Phil. You said it almost as if you
meant it."

"And I did."

Teddy gazed at his companion for a full minute.

"Something's been going on, I guess--something that I don't seem
to know anything about."

"There has, Teddy. I'm already a showman. You come with me. Mr.
Sparling wants to speak with you. Don't be afraid of him. He
talks as if he was mad all the time, but I'm sure he isn't."

Grasping Teddy by the arm Phil rushed him into Mr. Sparling's
tent, entering this time without knocking.
