There was plenty of room in the little house for them. He turned to his father. "Is Great Sult Anna O'Queen's back strong enough for her to carry Danny and Chris, too?" The most surprised look spread over Whiteface's features and the beautiful lady remarked: "Gary has your kind, thoughtful nature." "I think Great Sult Anna O'Queen's Irish back is strong enough to carry Danny and Chris.
How he did it, Jerry could not tell, but the mock terror depicted on Whiteface's features when he found the bulldog with what seemed to be a death-grip on the seat of his clothes caused Jerry and the rest of the children to shriek with laughter.
All of a sudden the clown made a clicking noise with his tongue and his figure began to straighten up and his face to lighten until it was all smiles. Jerry bounded to his feet. He forgot all about Whiteface's caution not to speak and cried: "Have you got it? Did the thought come?" "Yes!" cried the clown. "I'll buy you a ticket!" "Will you?" exclaimed Jerry. "Will you?"
Jerry waved his hands to them and bowed and a patter of hand-clapping ran along the audience as they passed until they reached the entrance. Chris suddenly cried, "Danny! Look at them el'funts! They're standin' on their heads! Lookee!" Jerry just had to see that and he squirmed around in Whiteface's arms. "They're funny!" he laughed. "Which one is Sult Anna?"
"I don't know Danny," replied the clown, "but I'll probably think up a way to get you into the circus even if you don't have a ticket." "Oh, can you?" cried Jerry excitedly. He got to his feet and in his eagerness put an arm over Whiteface's shoulder. "I'm sure I can if I think very hard," returned the clown. "You will think very hard, won't you? Please." "Oh, awfully hard," replied Whiteface.
"While I was thinking very hard of a way to get you into the circus and almost had the thought, you said, 'Have you got it? Did the thought come? Now, didn't you?" The appalling truth burst upon Jerry. He had spoiled Whiteface's thought by interrupting and their thoughts had got mixed. "I didn't know I was going to," he said. "I tried so hard not to."
Gary L. Bowe would sound very much like Jerry Elbow to any one who didn't know." "You're right," said Whiteface. "I believe he is our boy." Jerry looked up at the clown and such an expression of delight came over his face at the idea of the clown being his father that Whiteface's voice went all husky and he took Jerry in his arms. "Do you remember anything about your parents?" he asked.
