Side-show tents for circus grounds are made like the tents of Camp Box. (See [Diagram Three, E], page 171, for cutting the rim of a shallow box and bending it to make a tent.)
All toy figures that you can muster—tumble toys, wooden dolls, penny dolls, Noah’s Ark ladies, shepherds and shepherdesses, should go to Box Brothers’ Circus on the play-room floor. If you look among your toys, you will find animals for the circus, I know. They may even be animals cut from old magazine pictures.
One day I made a circus
(A bandbox was the tent),
I advertised in Boxville,
But it didn’t cost a cent!
The penny dolls of Boxville
Turned out on Circus Day!
I made pretend sell peanuts,
And I tell you, it was gay!
