The morning news. [volume] (Savannah, Ga.) 1887-1900, 1896-06-07

II may possibly surprise some society
enthusiasts TO find that there are persons
unconventional enough to really prefer
this season in Savannah. 1t undoubtedly
has its charms, Notwithstanding the
drawbacks in the matter of heat and these
need not affect the fortunate woman
who can escape the glare Of the asphalt
and the rays Of the sun during the morn
ing hours in the cool seclusion of her
own home, emerging only when the af-
ternoon breezes come blowing up from the
ocean, tempering the heat Of the day.
An afternoon card party on a we'll
shaded piazza overlooking grass plots and
flower borders, with waving palmettos and
banana trees, affords a charming way of
passing an hour or two before dark. and
is pleasantly terminated with salads and
ices in the place of tea.
To inlanders, Savannah's paramount at
traction at this season is, of course, it's
proximity TO the ocean. The ride to Ty-
bee across the marshes is exhilarating and
beautiful, and the afternoon and evening
on the beach are ideal Leaving at 4 one
reaches Tybee in time for an invigorating
surf bath, supper at one of the hotels
and a pleasant hour or two on a breezy
piazza with friends before one returns
to the city not too late. infinitely refresh
ed and benefited.
For the younger and more enthusiast
ticaliy inclined the bicycle runs still con-
tinued attractive, and the beauty OF the
reads at this season is unsurpassed. Sup
pers at Thunderbot are INDUCED in by
the say parties of cyclists. and a half
hour or so al Greenwich on cool veranda
overlooking water and marsh, is, by no
means, the least of pleasures Perhaps.
however, the most popular OF these re-
sorts is the Yacht club where crowds
assemble every afternoon. 1t is easily
reached by bicycle carriage and electric
car Possibly this last mode of locomo-
ton is pleasantest to the general public
and 1t is really delightful method of
transportation with glorious sea breeze
blowing. The yacht club is a charming
place. One meets any number CT his

plunge in well-arranged swimming pool
