swim" are nowadays literally doing that
act in the surf at the seaside, and the
watering place correspondent has al
ready commenced to ring the changes
on the bathing suit paragraph. AS
matter of fact the Los Angeles girl does
not affect very striking suits her skirts
come decidedly below her knees, and
knit Jersey she regards as "horrid."
The girl from the interior will 60 to
more extremes, or rather not cover her
extremities to the same extent. In fact
a San Bernardino belle has given
it out that today at Santa Monica
she will appear in red Jenness-Miller
bathing suit. No one knows what that
is exactly, but the extraordinary num-
Der of young men who will 60 to Santa
Monica today have decided that it must
be something fetching.
At any rate the way up people are out
of town or just going, and to be Gin it"
you must be out of the city. 1t is not
necessary to stay long. A few days at
Redondo or Coronado will fill the bill.
Then next fall when you are asked
"where did you spend the summer"
the answer will come readily. 1t is true
that fashion has more to do with sum-
mer fitting to beach or mountain
than any other reason, but fashion
sometimes is based on common sense.

The night was a perfect one and it was
a jolly crowd of eighteen that congre-

After few delays, but no accidents,
the crowd reached the home of Mr..
Moll, at Prospect Park, where they were
most royalty entertained by Miss Moll
and Miss Mary Penman, and met fifteen
or twenty of their friends. The house
was beautifully decorated with palms
and flowers, and the entire place was
