This is a cartoon in the Little Lulu series produced by Famous Studios. There will be spoilers ahead:
Little Lulu was adapted to animation from the comic strip of the same name. Famous Studios actually did a pretty decent job transferring the character from one medium to the other and this is a good early effort.
It opens with Lulu paying for a ticket to see the circus. It's an intricate process finding all the cash, but she eventually does so. She's heading to the entrance when she sees a small boy ejected from the tent for sneaking in without paying. Little Lulu has a struggle with her good and bad sides (one of the better arguments between angel and devil I've seen) and good does triumph.
Lulu is resourceful and manages to sneak in and that's where the fun begins. She quickly becomes a thorn in the ringmaster's side by exposing his various acts as fakes, punctuating her exposures by saying "It's fake" or "Fakers". The ringmaster tries to eject her, with no luck. The gags as she ruins one act after another are really funny.
It ends with a real lion taking the place of two guys in a lion suit and the ringmaster in trouble. The ending is cute and funny, so I won't spoil it here.
This cartoon deserves to be more widely seen.
