Friday afternoon Bill and his playmates hurried to the old barn near the river. They were getting ready to have a circus on Saturday. Upstairs in the barn loft the girls were all busy making dresses for the circus. Jenny’s little dog, Brownie, was up in the loft with them. Brownie was going to be in the circus, too. for he could walk on his hind legs and do other tricks.

Downstairs the boys were hammering. They were making a band wagon for the circus parade. Come down, girls and we will show you our band wagon. Called George. The girls came climbing down the ladder, wearing their bright colored circus dresses. What a fine band wagon, they cried. Suddenly Brownie began to bark.

He does not like to be left up in the loft alone, said Jenny. But we can’t coax him to come down the ladder. Just then the children heard someone shout, fire fire! They looked out of the door, a man was running toward the barn.  The roof is on fire. he shouted to the children. Get right out, don’t stop for anything quick! Run for help while I get a ladder, Bill ran down the street to a garage, where he telephoned for the firemen. Then he ran back to the barn. Two men were on the rood, throwing water on the flames. But the fire spread so fast that they had to climb down. Thick smoke began to come from the barn windows and the cracks between the boards.

All at once Jenny began to cry, Oh bill, she said. Brownie is in the loft, i couldn’t coax him to come down the ladder, Brownie! Brownie!
