FOREST CASINO, ROCKY POINT

The Cycle Whirl as given this week at
the Forest Casino. Rocky Point. Is with

performances ever given. Thrilling In
the extreme. II causes the spectators TO
hold their breath In awe, for the speed
sible that the riders can avoid collision
with one another
For the first time there are four riders

and Armstrong. the original riders. and
Miss Norton. IL was considered a marvel
with three men, when recently seen In
leading cities. but with four riders IL
almost surpasses the rules of science
and the laws OF gravity.
IL should be remembered that the circle
has but a diameter of 22 feet at the top.
Is feet at the bottom. and that the al-
most upright Stats, for they are at an
angle of 81 degrees. are only five feet
high.
Yet upon these Stats the four riders
dash around at speed that terrlfes.
some going In one direction and some In
another, and IL appears that terrible
collision must come. IL Is really a mar
Velous performance.

absurdly funny rustic farce. "a Country

White and Boyd are good dancers and
cake walkers. Mackey and Crosby cause
