FENNDIORE ANNOUNCE FEATURE
ATTRACTION FOR BIG DAYS
ON AUGUST 3rd AND 4th.

The world, with its love for the spec
tacular, has placed her mark of ap-
proval on the new and thrilling game
AUTO POLO.
The sensation loving public at last
has the opportunity to indulge to the
limit in the thrilling exhibition of
skill, science and daring which will
be seen, when, with a WhiZ and
whir the Auto Poloists appeare on the
field in FennimOre on August Bird and
4th, and the pleasure-seeking public,
that elusive and ever-shifting element
of human society, will have the oppor-
tunity right at its own door to witness
what has caused more comment and
speculation than any other exhibit
ton in the world.
If you come expecting to be mildly
amused, you will receive to your in
tense satisfaction the biggest sur
ed, it is true-but you will be more
than merely amused. You will gasp,
hold your breath while the finest bunch
of thrills run over you that you have
ever experienced in all your life. Your
hair will raise on your head, while
involuntarily you will raise to your
feet, unconscious of all else but the
course of the game, while moments fly
by lige fractional seconds.
The very air seems to be surcharged
and vitiates with excitement, while
waves of sympathetic feeling roll back
and forth from one end to the other of
the mighty throng, like the ebb and
flow of a tidal wave.
You are enthused; you are pleased
and delighted beyond your fondest
expectations, while the sound of
across the field in acclamations of
praise, and wonder at the seemingly
impossible feats that are performed.
And then-when some critical part
of the game is reached, and it seems
inevitable that the rushing cars speed
ing toward each other at fifty miles
an hour, will surely dash the occu-
pants to certain death, or when some
car turns completely over couple of
times, throwing its driver and mallet-
man to the earth-not a sound is
heard excepting the maddening pop
pop of the high-powered cars as they
race in riotous cavorting circles
around the field, and long-drawn awe
struck "O-o-hs" and A-a-hs" 81
thought he would surely be killed"
THAT collision. Wasn't that a close
call?" and like EXPLANATIONS are heard
to fall from the lips of the throng.
The pen has not the power to con-
vey to the human mind the powerful
fascination Auto Polo offers. The old
and time-wOrn adage of Seeing is be-
lieving'' is true beyond a doubt, and
to really get an idea of it's wonders,
one must really see a game of Auto
Polo
This privilege will be accorded to
the people of this city and surrounding
territory, for, when Hankinson's Orig
inal Teams arrive, the very same who

can amusement ever appearing before
the Imperial household of Japan in
exhibition, and which was selected as
the main attraction to head the insu-
lar government carnival held at Mail
li-everyone loving good clean excit-
ing sport, will be at the game.
The very name Auto Polo" reeks
with the possibilities of excitement,
and excitement of different sort.
