Teenagers.

July 24, Middlefield.

The show was booked, the Amish came out in droves, filling the tent with straw hats and turquoise blue hues, and they were a great audience. The clowns brought down the tent; it was a treat to see and hear.
During intermission boys and girls stood in the midway acting like typical teenagers, but in distinct groups, never mingling, and the boys were all swagger and attitude, and the girls all gigglish laughter, only they were dressed from head to toe in conservative Amish attire, making the spectacle all the more enjoyable for being so anachronic.
The boys all smoked, too, and some of the girls, and a cloud soon formed above the midway.
