AIR SWING BIG

All roads lead to the land of fun
these days, which is none other
than Glen Echo Park. This year
something new and different is
the aeroplane swing, device that
Is not a mere imitation of a plane,
but which closely duplicates a
real air ride. About 700 electric
lights give the device at night
the appearance OF an incandescent
tower. The coaster dip seems to
be more popular than ever. giving
as IL does a ride that is not other
wise possible on four wheels. The
children find 1t great fun to test
the various features in the mid
way as we'll as take q turn or two
on the carrousel. Still another
unique ride Is in the boat that
runs through the old mill.
The general improvements to
the park as a whole, including
the grounds, shrubbery, etc. have.
attracted more picnicers this year
than ever before, who find q
cordial welcome from the manage
