what does "flying jinny"here mean? Jake dug his fist into his eye and rubbed it sleepily. ‘Don’t know. I might and I might not.’ He laid the newspaper on the counter and pointed out the advertisement he had just read. ‘I think I’ll go around and look into this.’ Brannon read and considered. ‘Yeah,’ he said finally. ‘I’ve seen that show. It’s not much--just a couple of contraptions such as a flying-jinny and swings. It corrals the colored people and mill hands and kids. They move around to different vacant lots in town.’ ‘Show me how to get there.’

Hi! A flying Jonny is an uncommonly used word for a carousel or merry-go-round. I have literally never heard anyone use this term, though.

Hi, searched Google and found "flying jenny" which is that axis, fixed on the middle, where two children seat, each one on the axis end, and when one is up the other is down. Hence the comparison with a swing, which is that game where a child seats and oscillates suspended by mean of chains to a structure. I guess they're talking not about a kindergarten but going to a circus, where there are similar objects.
