CLOWNS

Clowns enjoy making people laught. It's their job. They like it. They paint their face and put on funny nose. They smile a lot, but here's a funny thing - when they are not smiling , the make - up on their faces makes them look sad.

Mostly though, clowns smile and laugh, they also wear funny clothes and funny shoes. We see them most often in circuses. They run, jump, fall down turn somersaults and cartwheels, do handstand and bunny rolls. They ride donkeys backwards, push each other in wheelbarrows and pour flour and buckets of water over each other when they pretend to be angry.

Clowns have to work hard, though. They must train to keep fit and active. They must work long hours but the pay is quit low for most of them. They are kind people usually and they sometimes give a show free to an orphans' home or a hospital. Sick children and old people too, usually feel better after seeing the clowns. In fact ther is a saying "Lauhhter is the best medicine'.
