ASBURY PARK, n. j., August 30, 1924.
The season is now waning at all the sea-
side resorts, but, from present Indications,
1t will die hard at Asbury Park and Ocean
Grove. The society events on this side the
lake have known no abatement, and night
after night the lovers of dancing have gath
cred in the ball rooms and the card fends
have surrounded the euchre tables in the
hotel parlors. Across the lake no intrusion
of a secular nature would be rolerat ted
within the sacred precincts, for the great
camp meetings-the greatest in the world
are in session in Ocean Grove, and the
saints may b. seen early as $50 I'm the
morning, with Bible and song book in hand,
vending their way toward the big audi
forum. So, with society doings in the Park
and religious fever at white heat in the
Grove the crowds still lnger, and are likely
10 do SO for some time to come.
The brunswick COtilIOn.
The swell event of the present week was
the Brunswick's grand cotillon, which took

eight fancy favor ngures, which We're de-

contest, cigarette-lighting contest a bean
bag AMI angling contest, chewing gum
contest for the ladies, a hoop race sus-
pended apple and potato figure and May

and laden with costly gifts. Some of the
taVorS were bronze and cut-glass pieces
articles of bisque Sevres, handsome royal
Worcester ware and other rare ceramics.
