The lew twine the hu a x4 ov In half-circle inWt k hangfwj hea down. Whex U swings back-. Tkls is not an Asiatic form ! Urture. It one of the most pop ular amusements In the park. The widen elevation Into the air and wing downward gives Muscovites a great thrill and lots of laughs. There Is no provision for keeping skirts down, and crowds are always largest round this stand. At the other end of the park you see men and women hurtling down from a high tower. About halfway down a parachute opens and bears them gently to the ground. Tho parachute Is attached to a sustaining rope so there Is no danger. After buckling people into the harness an attendant shoves oil the platform tho who have loM their nerve at the last moment. Thiii Jitmnliiff I'oiiulnr Real parachute Jumping from air planes is becoming a major sport in Russia. Tens of thousands have made Jumps. I snw 86 men and girls make a mass Jump at the Moscow air field. But parachute Jumping has other objects than sport. A military man told me undoubtedly there are mili tary aspects in tho government' en couragement of parachuting, "in ease of war,' he said, "think what a party of a hundred men, eacn with a portable machine gun, drop ped at night on an enemy flank or on their lines of communication, eould do. They .could be re-supplled with ammunition and food by air piariflfl dropping It In parachutes. 1 think this new development In war fare may be very Important In the next wt." Skill Ride Popular Another unusual amusement In the park Is called the "Crab." The fun-seeker straddles a small car riage at the bottom of a short, ateep Incline. On the Incline arc holes every foot or so. The rider Is provided with an Iron hook. The object la to pull yourself to the top by Jerks by hooking successive holes before the en rr Inge runs back down the Incline. It requles fast, accurate hooking to drag oneself to the top. If you get near the top ol the Incline and uitu a stab at the sole, you'll get a tremendous thump at the baso of the spine as the car runs back and hits the bumper. The "Jousting horses" game 1 lso popular. Two wooden figures of horses are mounted op. pivots Where the horse's tall should be Is a wooden upright peg. The play ers are provided with wooden poles with leather loops on the end. The general Idea Is to push your op. ponent'a horse around so you can catch Ita tall-peg with the loop. In tne efforts to prevent this the Muscovites hnve great fun. Distorted Mirrors Also Like Coney Island they have de forming mirrors, and strength teals wheie you ring the bell but don't get a cigar. Jnrtdcntnliy. 1 didn't see a single RuaMan smoking a elf ar. There la a morte and a dance hall where proletarians dance the fox trot. Modern dnnclng has start ed only recently. The Russians have the general idea of the fox-trot they know tho steps but not the rhythm. There are a few night spots but they're too expensive for any ex cept the hlKhly pnld RumIrus.
