Fall Even Into the Net Which IN
Spread Itenenth Them In I.table to
llcsnlt In Serious Injury — Nerve
and Confidence Necessary.
It doubtless appears to tho onlooker
tho circus that the midair gymnasts
‘aerlallsts” lu the vocabulary of tho
arena—are quite safe from Injury so
long as they have tho broad, soft net
Bpread beneath them.. They may swing
from bar to bar, as high as tho roof of
tho tent will permit, or toss a child
from hand to hand through long, peril
ous distances, and all the while tho
blase spectator observes with the mere
suggestion of a thrill, assuming In his
Inexperience that there Is no real dan
ger lu what Is called with greater truth
thnu color “this marvelous feat of dar
ing.” As a matter of fact, however,
the aerlallsts are in Imminent danger
of brokeu necks through every work
ing moment of their “turn,” which be
comes evident indeed when It is said
that the nerve strain cannot possibly
he borne through two seasous without
long period of rest between for what
may he called nerve recuperation.
A famous gymnast who Is tho head
jt a family of performers said that the
midair gymnast bruuch of circus work,
which appears so easy and safe of ac
complishment, was so full of danger as
to ho fought shy of by faint hearted 1
people, who preferred “ground work”
and smaller salaries to Its risk. Safety
lies wholly lu self possession, attention
and nice, practiced calculation of dis
tances through which to leap or turn or
throw. There are four In this family,
and tho safety of each depends, not on
ly upon tho individual, but upon tho
nerve nnd skill of the others. When
the family Is In action, It becomes at
once a machine, and each member
moves nnd turns aud even smiles with
mechanical accuracy. If ono part
should fall, the whole would for the
moment bo lu danger of destruction.
‘Now,” said tho gymnast, “wo are
merely human. We can’t nil be perfect
In action all the time, so from time to
time tho machine goes to pieces, but
we are so well schooled that we soon
put It together again. When thero hap
pens to bo a fall—as there does fre
quently—three hearts pretty nearly
stop beating upon our bars until the
fourth of the family rises from the net.
It wouldn't be possible to continue our
act If every ono of us didn’t know bow
to full. That’s tho secret of It, and tho
danger lies In the loss of nerve when
the fall takes place. Men in our branch
seldom break legs. They break their
necks or hacks and quit the business
once and for all. You’ve soon a fall,
no doubt. Well, did you notice how tho
boy doubled his legs up and got his
face as close to his breast as ho could?
If ho failed to do that, ho would never
survlvo tho fall. He’d break his leg or
his back sure. It’s a terrible tlmo for
me as tho head of the ‘family’ every
time there’s a fall.”
Tho gymnast lias a high fall to dread.
The acrobat, on the other hand, has to
guard against a fall through but two or
three feet.
“There’s as much danger In our work
ns In any circus,” said a certain star,
one of tho best acrobats lu the business
aiul a good and trustworthy innn out
of It. “In the tumbling particularly a
man Is liable to break his back any
minute or dislocate his ankle In landing
badly. My ‘family’ (of six, two of
whom are boys) Is so well trnlued that
It works perfectly. So Just now I have
on easy mind. Last season, though, I
had two bad accidents and had to dls*
charge a man. IIo didn't catch my
apprentice one time, with tho result
that the poor boy dislocated his shoul
der. The fellow looked nt the audience
for an Instant, and then tho trouble
came, so I lost confidence In him and
let him go. In our business, you know,
every one has to have confidence In ev
ery one else—perfect confidence. If
you can't get that condition, you can’t
work, that’s all. You can’t keep your
nerve. Our acifdeuts are nasty ones
too. It may bo a fall of three feet and
a broken back come from It. You can’t
tell when accidents are going to hap
pen eWier. They come so unexpected
ly that th^y knock you out. The head
of the ‘family’ has to bear the worry,
though. He’s responsible for his ap
prentices, nnd the 13 I’ve taught have
brought me gray hairs pretty early In
life.”
This man is thoroughly conscientious
In the training of his boys morally ns
well ns In their work, lie regards his
care of them as a high duty, and he
watches them In the circus ring as
carefully ns a mother might. HenOe
they are saved from many &n accident,
lie always breathes easier, too, when
the day’s^work Is over. Watch as care
fully as one may, he said, the business
Is such that necldents are bound to
happen.
“How can you accept an apprentice
witlrau easy conscience, then?” ho was
asked.
“Well,” lie replied, “there’s danger
wherever you go. No matter what
your business may he, If you are care
less the chances are that you will get
hurt. I train my hoys nnd men In at
tention and accuracy. Thai’s the best
safeguard they can have. It’s like this:
If a man throws a baseball nt my head,
it will strike and hurt mo if I don’t
stop It. I’ve got to take care, and It’s
the same in every walk of life. It is
very dangerous work, the acrobat's,
but then”— The acrobat shrugged Ills
shoulders to complete the sentence.
Well, if it did rain that did not
hinder the meeting of the Union last
Saturday. Really the weather is not
in It when the people want to go.
Everyone who went was glad that, lie
went and sorry when ho had to leave.
The program was carried out and
much good talk by the brethren pres
ent. Pastor Whitlow was elected
president and Mr. Whit Russell secre
tary. Mrs. Dr. Peek presided at the
organ. It is impossible to tell what
was said. The themes were high ones
and the speaking was interesting and
strong.
Dr. Branch renews his youth. He
made the longest and yet the best
speech 1 ever heard him make. Rev.
Pete Agan spoke twice and said that
he never enjoyed religion more in his
life than since Bix months gone.
Sunday a rainy day, yet there was
discussion and preaching all the same.
It was a lit audience, though few.
Deacon El King, though 75 years old,
was present.
There were also live ministers pres
ent besides deacons nnd laymen. No
preacher ever had a more appreciative
audience. There were tears, amens
and enthusiasm. Pastor Boinan made
a noble prayer. One confessed that
the light on missions was breaking in.
Teacher Brown gave us ample audi
ence. Rev. Mr. Carnes shows that his
heart is in the work.
