netonka has been a brilliant one! The
season is now at its height, and select
parties, either for dancing, boating or
fishing, are all the rage. At both the
Hotel st. Louis and the Hotel Lafay-
cite the guests have apparently deter
mined to get all the enjoyment possible
out of their outing, and the different
social events succeed each other with
great rapidity. Probably the most,im-
portant event Of the week was the
opening of the Minnetonka Yacht
clubs new home in Bay st. Louis.
The. house was brilliantly Illuminated,
and hundreds of Chinese and Japanese
lanterns were hung in feSt0onS from
the porches. The big ball room on. the
second floor was tastefully decorated
with the colors and remnants of different
yachts belonging to the fleet and the
bright costumes of the ladies and the
natty yachting suits of the bronzed
yachtSmen made a pretty picture.
There were speeches and Dances. fol-
lowed by collation. On Monday even
ing there was very select german at
the Hotel Lafayette, led by William De-
Garmo. Then the regular weekly hops
were largely attended, the full dress
one OH Saturday night being brilliant
affair. The DAM concerts have grown
in popularity, and now the ,pOrches are
crowded at both the afternoon and even
ing concerts. To-day the orchestrascon-
sists of thirty pieces and the programme
of eight numbers is an exceptionally fine
one. 1t iS,aS follows: Id 5:g
