A Charming Season Of al Fresco En-

the observation-disclosures


the Lake-Announcement
Out door diversions are in full force.
ihe wagonette or brake, with its COM
element of light hearts, merry tongues
and tunefui voices stirs the sympathies OF
all, as the beautiful steeds go prancing
through the city in the cleaning just as
the cooling breeze sweeps down from the
canyon.
This, with the small and select cliques
that go to the lake to enjoy the enticing
breeze that sweeps softly through the
pavilions, and to feast the eyes upon the
blue sparkling water, OF to dance to the
lazy waltz music, or dip in the foaming
waves, is the sum of our enjoyment.
The lawn parties make the pleasing
variety, which prevents monotony.
The 4th of July many parties were
formed for little trips to the canyons, and
though thousands disported themselves
in the exailerating waters at Garfield
Beach and Saltair, these others took a
fancy for a ''tobogganing, as snow,
with ''nipping and an eager air,' is
more of a sensation on the hottest day /,
July 9TH, of the year, than bath in the
open.
A merry circle to the number of twenty
started for Big Cottonwood bright and
early, O'Clock in the morning, and
arriving at cool, shady place about 6
O'Clock took breakfast. Hospitable peo-
pie living there gave them the use OF
tents, tables and dancing hall, SO that
their 'troughlng ito was made as agreea-
BILE as possible.
Wandering at their own will between
meals the gay crowd picked white violets
under the snow, lolled or climbed the
mountain, flying down with the speed OF
birds over the snow, and generally enjoy
ing the day right heartily.
The participants were Mr.. and Mrs. L.
i. Archer, Mr.. and Mrs. De Golyer, Dr.,
Mrs. and Miss Douglas, Mr., Mrs. and
Miss Bishop, Mr.. and Mrs. j. G. Hooper,

Burrows and Cone, Messrs. Charles M.
Hawley ana Ed. Hoch.
The coach which started out on We'd
nesday drawn by six white horses was
filled with throng of society folks bent
on pleasure, and if good start means
anything they had it. From to
over, when the horses turned their heads
cityward, pulling up at the elegant home
of Mr.. and Mrs. Harry I. Duke for re-
freshments. The party was the largest

pleasure with drive in their wagonette
which was the occasion of unalloyed
pleasure to those complimentez with in
vitations. Miss Bessie Southworth was

grounds were splendidly lighted in novel
but very effective way. Good-sized
tubs were used, filed with kerosene
and then lighted; this threw fine
glow upon all the fair surroundings, foI
1t burned bright and strong. Added to
this illumination were numerous Japan
