Glen Echo.

1t is an open question at Glen
Echo Park as to which is the more
popular thriller, the giant derby
racer or the coaster dip. Each
claims it's devotees and gets thrills
a-plenty. The former has been Inn
proved this year by two big dips,
which now puts it on a par with
the coaster dip. The new fool
proof" device at the park this sea-
son is the shooter, which, by the
way, is the only one of its kind
about Washington. The shooter
is a two-seat contrivance self
driven over steel flooring, which
bumps from one place to another.
The children can hardly be drag
ged away from the midway, where
the funmakers are. New stunts
have been installed, and, in addi-
ton to the two-score amusements
already in operation, there is fun
galore.

plejohn's Adventures, with
Charles Hawtrey in the leading
role.
The play borders on fantasy,
being the translation Of the ad-
ventures that befell one Ambrose
Applejohn, as timid a man as ever
lived, when he discovered that
one of his ancestors was the no.
torious brigand, Captain Apple
jack. Instead of hanging his
head in becoming shame when he
learns that one of his forebears
was pirate, Ambrose imme-
diately reverts to type and be-.
comes holder than his notorious
ancestor.
The play is a delightfully."- fan
tastic comedy, which ranges from
the Cornish coast to the Span
ish Main, from the present time,
back to the seventeenth century,
with pirates and smugglers and
heroes and heroines scattered all
through it with lavish hand.
The cast assembled is a notable
one and includes Fahia Marinoff,

concerns the clandestine marriage
of Jewish boy and an Irish girl
and their desperate efforts to con-
