SOCIAL NEWS.

Cards are out for the wedding of Miss
Mary Barton Lamberton to Mr.. Gustav l..
Becker on the evening Of Wednesday, June
20, in the Lafayette Reformed Church.
June has always been considered the month
of perfect days, a time when Strawberries
and roses are at their best. But it must De
confessed that his year at least June has
shown herself tickle and variable in her
moods. 1t was at first thought that she
would bring us another Noah,s food-not an
unwelcome idea to those who could not
afford to spend the summer at a watering
place. But, fortunately. the twenty-frst
day Of the prophesied forty came with sun
shine, and, though We shlvered, we gave
thanks for the sun.
And now the many who are anxious to
leave the dusty city at the earliest oppor-
tunity are making ready to depart to the
rivers, plains and mountains. A few have
already gone to Europe for the grand
tour" and other Jersey City folk Will follow
soon. Among these are Prof. and Mrs. IL.
c.. Wait, who, having sold their York street
house to DR.. Parsons, are now boarding on
Belmont avenue until after Hasbrouck
Commencement. Those who have already
left Jersey City for a trip to Europe are
Mrs. Elite Henderson, Mr.. Frank Hender-
son, Mr.. and Mrs. John Walker. Mr.. and
Mrs. John McMaster, the Misses Thompson
of Jersey avenue, Miss Florence Turner and
the Apgar family of Sip avenue
1t is to be feared that the majority of
those who go away for "rest'' do not know
the meaning of the term. Whether they go
to the mountains or to the seaside, if they
are fashionable folk" they must make a
dressy toilette several times a day, remem-
bering that they are constantly on exhibit
zion. 1t is gratifying to know, however,
that there are Jersey City people who refuse
to be slaves to fashion during their summon
outings, and independently go about in
appropriate dresses for climbing, walking
or running.
1t is almost laughable to think of going to
Europe for rest unless one made the voy-
age there and back without leaving the
steamer. But it is only fair to state that
travellers to Europe do not contemplate rest
ing any more than the visitors to the Chicago
Fair did. They knew that it meant days and
days of hard work.
Perhaps the people who enjoy most rest
during the umIner are owners of cottages.
The only draw back to their pleasure is that
they soon desire a change. Among the DER

Clerk John E. Scott, whose summer home is
at Asbury Park.
