Dangers of congested street traffic need no longer prove a menace to bicycle riders. for Tax Collector Howard Smith will soon launch a number of new water bicycles at Fair field Beach and there the Cyclists" will be able to participate in their beloved sport un1nolested.
 There will be nothing to fear, not even the sharks, as the water bicycle propelled with the proper pedal stroke can easily out-distance the speediest of sea serpents. such as cast their lot for the summer months in the waters of Fairfield Beach.
 The water bicycle, although nov city in this section, has gained much popularity at Palm Beach, Atlantic City and other shore resorts, where it has Been a thrilling feature in aquatic sports. It has especially ap- pealed to members of the fairer sex as one does not necessarily have to be d good swimmer in order to ride a water bike The device is equipped with an air-tight pontoon which makes the cycle buoyant and gives it an even keel in the water, thereby affording the ballast that makes up- setting impossible.
