00:00There comes a time in every father's life when he must take his offspring to see the circus.

00:07Well, the circus is here and so is Baby Snooks, accompanied by her father, played by Hanley Stafford.

00:12Enter Fanny Bryce as Baby Snooks.

00:20Well, Snooks, here we are at the circus.

00:22Now remember, I don't want you to go too close to the animal cage.

00:25I won't, Daddy.

00:27Wait a minute, I have to buy a ticket.

00:30How you are, mister?

00:31Just a minute there, buddy.

00:33You'll have to pay for the little girl, too.

00:35At that time, there's children under seven that bid it free.

00:38Is she under seven?

00:40She looks older.

00:41Well, she isn't, and I ought to know I'm her father.

00:44Yeah?

00:45How old are you, little girl?

00:46Huh?

00:47Tell the man your age, Snooks.

00:48Mind the age.

00:50Oh, stop that nonsense.

00:52You know you're only six years old.

00:53Never mind coaching the child, mister.

00:55Let her tell me how old she is herself.

00:57I want to go inside the circus.

00:59Well, tell the man you're under seven, and then we can go in.

01:03Is this a street car, Daddy?

01:04Oh, no.

01:06Now why can't I tell the truth?

01:09Come on, we're going home.

01:11Sheepskate.

01:12Now, you look here.

01:14Oh, stop yelling, Snooks.

01:16I'll give you a licking.

01:17I want to go inside the circus.

01:19Well, tell the man how old you are.

01:21Ah, stop all that beefing and buy the kid a ticket.

01:24I will not.

01:25It's not the 50 cents.

01:27It's the principle of the thing.

01:29She knows she's only six years old.

01:30Well, if she says so herself, I'll let her in for nothing.

01:33Go ahead, Snooks.

01:34Say, I'm six years old.

01:36Huh?

01:37Say to the man, I'm six years old.

01:39Daddy is six years old.

01:41Oh, never mind.

01:42Here's the 50 cents.

01:44Come on.

01:45Mark, I'm going, Daddy?

01:47Yes.

01:48Daddy.

01:49What?

01:49Is the man going to eat the half a dollar?

01:53Oh, no.

01:54Then why did he bite it?

01:56It was an insulting gesture.

01:58He wanted to see if the money was good.

02:00Is it good, Daddy?

02:01Why, of course it's good.

02:03Then why didn't he eat it?

02:05Oh, stop that.

02:06I brought you to the circus.

02:08Now enjoy yourself, you little devil.

02:12All right.

02:14What's that funny thing in the case?

02:16It's a blue-nosed baboon.

02:18Oh.

02:19I thought it was Uncle Louie.

02:22No, it's not Uncle Louie.

02:24It's a monkey.

02:25It looks like Uncle Louie.

02:28Well, what if it does?

02:29You shouldn't say those unkind things.

02:31Why?

02:32Because it's not nice to compare a monkey with Uncle Louie.

02:35Can't a monkey understand me?

02:38Oh, come away from there.

02:39Let's go in and see the show.

02:41I don't want it.

02:42Well, where do you want to go first?

02:43I want to go home.

02:45You can't go home.

02:46You bested me all week to take you to the circus.

02:48Now enjoy the animals.

02:50All right, Daddy.

02:51Oh, look.

02:52What is it now?

02:53Uncle Louie is scratching himself.

02:57I told you it's not, Uncle Louie.

02:59Come away from that cage.

03:01Now, here's some birds.

03:02What kind of birds, Daddy?

03:04A wild duck.

03:05Now, look at that one swimming around.

03:07See it's pretty plumy?

03:08What's plumy's, Daddy?

03:10It's feathers.

03:11Down.

03:12The duck's whole coat is down.

03:13Is his pants down, too?

03:16No, no.

03:17Oh, forget about the ducks.

03:19Now, look at the big elephant.

03:20Oh.

03:21Daddy.

03:22What?

03:23Look what that elephant is doing.

03:26Well, what's he doing?

03:27He's eating peanuts with his tail.

03:29Oh, don't be silly.

03:31That's his trunk.

03:32Well, where's his tail?

03:35In the back.

03:36In the back of the trunk?

03:38No, in the back of the elephant.

03:40Why?

03:41Because that's where it belongs.

03:45The tail is in the back and the trunk is in front.

03:47It's really the elephant's nose.

03:49But he's putting it in his mouth.

03:51Well, what's so wonderful about that?

03:53Can you do it?

03:56Snooks, you're giving me a headache with your silly questions.

03:59Come on, now.

04:00Let's take a fast look around and go home.

04:02I just want to buy me something, Daddy.

04:04All right.

04:04What do you want?

04:05I'm asking you.

04:06What do you want?

04:06A balloon?

04:07No.

04:07You want a cane?

04:08No.

04:09Some peanuts?

04:10No.

04:10Well, what do you want?

04:11I want a balloon.

04:13Oh, all right.

04:15The balloon man is way back there by the monkey cage.

04:17Come on.

04:18Will I have a big one, Daddy?

04:19You'll take the regular size.

04:21Say, mister, let me have a balloon.

04:23I want peanuts, too.

04:24Well, give us some peanuts, too.

04:26Thanks.

04:27There you are.

04:28Now, are you satisfied?

04:29Uh-huh.

04:30Daddy.

04:32And now what is it?

04:33Make the balloon bigger.

04:35Oh, all right.

04:35I'll blow it up.

04:37Give it to me.

04:40Bigger.

04:44Bigger.

04:46It can go any bigger.

04:47And don't stand so close to that cage.

04:51Make it bigger.

04:52All right, but stop yelling.

04:53Now, look.

05:00You see that?

05:01It's worse.

05:03Don't stop trying.

05:04I'll buy you another balloon.

05:05I don't want another balloon.

05:07Now, what are you trying for?

05:09Uncle Louie grabbed my peanuts.

05:11I don't want another balloon.
