Jimmy Reynolds and Eddie Allen showing off the three young elephants purchased by Cole Bros. in 1937.
They remained with the Cole Show thru 1937 and Robbins Bros. in 1938 but were never trained.

Buckles,
Why weren't they trained? What was the purpose of having them?

The locals always count the elephants. At least these knew how to be counted.
