His introduction to the circus arouses a keen delight in the heart of the little clown, Kenneth. He takes a particular liking to him. This friendliness is readily recognized by Bumps and they become fast friends. The elephant is taken sick and the trainers cannot induce him to take his medicine, but Bumps does not hesitate to take it when it is administered by Kenneth. The little clown can make Bumps do anything for him and appears as his master at each performance in the circus ring, one day, while Kenneth is putting Bumps through his tricks, fire is discovered in the dressing room annexed to the main tent. An alarm of fire is given and a panic takes place in the audience. Everybody rushes into the ring. Bumps lifts the little clown on to his back and forces the people to the exits through which they pass to safety. The elephant then follows with Kenneth and they are both hailed with cheers from the grateful spectators, as heroes. After this, Bumps and the little clown are inseparable.
