THE COLISEUM RINK. Belfast is favored in
having a roller skating rink like the Coliseum.
If the hundreds of patrons who have enjoyed
themselves this spring gliding around the
splendid surface could visit some of the other
New England cities and the little halls
that have been pressed into service since the
craze revived. they would appreciate how
they are favored. The Coliseum is as much
superior to some of the called Kinks in our
State as Delmonico's is superior to a lunch
wagon. Those who haven't already visited
the Coliseum since Manager PIERCE converted
it into one of the finest and most modern skat-
ing Kinks in New England might make it a
point to 60 out some evening and see what an
amusement enterprise he has created here in
Belfast.
