Glen Echo Park.

Large crowds daily throng Glen
Echo, Washington's finest amuse-
ment park. One OF the outstanding
evidences of the parks popularity
is the fact that the same public at
tends over and over again. They
wish to duplicate the thrill they
receive on the coaster dip, the fun
they have on the midway, on the
carrousel or in the old mill. Those
who do not care for the other
amusements are drawn to the ball
room and the music OF the Glen
Echo Orchestra, under the direction
of A. Oehlmann.
