ST. MORITZ SKATERS

BUTTERFLY DANCE ON SKATES Coming direct from Queensland and arriving just in time to present their intriguing acts to the Waikato public, the St. Moritz Skaters, who are leaving in July for Canada, are once again at the Show, and at a special presentation performance the writer was enthralled with the graceful yet daring movements of these talented artists. The ease of movement in every act is a masterpiece to watch, and although grace, poise and beauty go hand-in-hand, the audience are given thrills at every turn. It is indeed hard to compare one act with another, but the latest sensation of Ihese talented skaters the Butterfly Dance on skates—is beyond description. It Is wonderful and beautiful in the extreme, and as the butterfly gently wings its way through the air the St. Moritz Skater, with the aid of her partner, likewise flitters through space —a picture beautiful to behold. No visitor should fail to visit this excellent entertainment, which is located in the amusement section and which one and all will thoroughly enjoy. If a person is looking for thrills and action they will see it here; if they desire to see youth and beauty in all its graceful form they will likewise see it at the entertainment of the St. Moritz Skaters, where skill, art, balance and daring are the order of the day. Indeed, their acts are equal, if not superior, to those of Sonja Ilenie, the world's champion skater, who was recently seen in the film, ‘Girl in a Million.”
