Here’ one of the big furry fellows over in the London Zoo pushing his soft nose into the crevice of a rock for a wallow from the source of his water supply. He had previously been rolling around in the water you see standing ’round his feetâ€"so that wasn’t clean enough for him any more. Hence, this pose for a fresh drink.

It is a reproduction, said to be perfect in detail, of the highest towered church edifice in the worldâ€"the famous Ulm Cathed- ral on the border between Bavaria and Wurtemburg in Ger- many. Mr. Molz, who is shown kneeling beside his wonder- ful model, built it in proportion to the dimensions of the original cathedral. It stands nine feet in height. Scores of visitors to Los Angeles have viewed it and pronounced it as, truly, a wonderful work of art made possible by no small amddnt af painstaking labor on Mr. Molz’ part. ‘ FUN NY-FACED clowns become serious for a moment. Daring trapeze performers halt~ ed in their aerial stunts and came down to earth. Bareback riders gave their horses a rest. And all the animals kept an ominous silence. The occasion was a serious one. One of solemnity. For, the first christening ever held in a circus ring, was about to be per. formed. It all happened at Luna Park in New York City. Joseph Edward Hodgini, baby son of Joseph and Etta Hodgini, noted circus rim was the principal of the moment- ous event. And he took it good as . The M. Thomas P..

KNIGHTS of old, garbed in full armored fighting array, rode once again in the revival of the old tournaments the fairy stories tell so much about. Not to actually battle for some princess or over a question of honor, but for charity. They figured in a series of jousts held over in Ghent, Belgiumâ€" the tourament proceeds going to orphans and widows of Bel- gian soldiers who lost their lives in the world war. In the above photograph, you see Jean De Cleves, one of the many participating knights, arriving at the pageant. The unique event, it is said, was a most inspiring memory of earlier years and a big success. LIFE does not ho d enough risks for some men. If they can’t risk their necks ne way or another, they’ll manufacture a way. Just take a look at the odd-looking craft pictured above said to be capable of crossing the ocean in forty days. It's been christened the “Carrie" by William Oldham, a Warring- ton, England engineer and its inventor. The boat, which looks like a miniature sub-chaserâ€"is only twelveofeet in length with like this, no one knows. Sea-going Craft?

It is no place for a stove, furnace or boiler, because it’s. built entirely ofâ€"ICE! It’s one of the features of the wonderful new Ne- vada Run just opened at Gataad. Switzerland. And it’s worth some moneyâ€"were you to figure it by the prices, per hundred pounds, the ice men charged us in this country during the summer months. A Bit Ancientâ€"Still u Produces «m Kick"! THE corset-less style of women today nearly cost Mrs. May J. Fisk of Washington, D. C. a fortune. She threw away a pair of corsets to which she had pinned her life savings of $20,825. When she discovered her mistake, .she started a one of the city’s ash dumps for several hours, he located the you see him escorting Mrs. Fiskâ€"who, incidentally, is a rooming-house proprietress,â€"â€"to her home. She is shown holding the corsets which contained the thousands of her savings. NOT very fancy but it does the workâ€"does this primitive Indian still.
