Pecan Harvest Festival Saturday. This circus won’t have live animals and exciting rides; in- stead, seven trick marionettes will perform old time circus acts that delight and amaze, and one marionette will be used to show the audience what each string does. This exciting and interest- ing show will be performed at 2 p.m. in the courtyard at the Columbus County Arts Center at the corner of South Madison and Pecan streets. Fred Michael, who per- formed marionette shows pro- fessionally for 15 years, will perform the show.
