CHAPTER
The Circus Boys Across the Continent
THE BOYS HEAR GOOD NEWS
"You never can guess it--you never can guess the news, Teddy," cried Phil Forrest, rushing into the gymnasium, his face flushed with excitement.
Teddy Tucker, clad in a pair of linen working trunks and a ragged, sleeveless shirt, both garments much the worse for their winter's wear, was lazily swinging a pair of Indian clubs.
"What is it, some kind of riddle, Phil?" he questioned, bringing the clubs down to his sides.
"Do be serious for a minute, won't you?"
"Me, serious? Why, I never cracked a smile. Isn't anything to smile at. Besides, do you know, since I've been in the circus business, every time I want to laugh I check myself so suddenly that it hurts?"
"How's that?"
"Because I think I've still got my makeup on and that I'll crack it if I laugh."
"What, your face?"
Teddy shied an Indian club at a rat that was scurrying across the far end of their gymnasium, missing him by half the width of the building.
