Summer man for the entertainment OF MS
summer girl"
Every girl likes to fish. There is q
sport in angling which appeals to her ma
tural bent. Fishing never goes amlss
with the summer girl. You can always
depend upon her pleasant acquiescence,
if you suggest a trip across country 70
the nearest stream. Take with you some
| thing to read and something to TAX
about. Take with you also the girl's SIS
ter. who will be very useful to spread oul
the lunch and select pleasant places y
sit. The girls sister knows enough not
to be too much of a crowd. z
Your summer girl will wear a snort
skirt or she is not worthy a fishing e&-
petition. Probably she will don her pl-
cycle suit. but if she be a very up-to-
date girl she will have a fishing costunae
which will be nothing more or less thdh
a good bright Scotch tweed, with a short
round skirt. and a short round jacket.
Across the jacket there will be big COM
Portable buttons, and her little cloth nat
will be spiked on in a careless comIort7
able way. That's your fishing girl.
yonr mountain girl is not quite SO rest
FIJI she's an uneasy piece, the mi
girl. she always want to CLIMB one jos
higher. and when she has taken the last
stem she sees a crag just a little hgher
yet, upon which she longs TO Iasten y
little flag. Then you must go, and all Gay
long YOU must keep going until you piiiis
her home at night, proud and happy tlreu
and blissful. She reached the mouitalif
top. no
The girl for a tired man is the piclic
girl She is smart and knows how 70 niahe
sandwiches and is willing to make d hiee
deep box of them. In the four corners y
the hox she fastens a string and neld III

abort fine thirst of a pics ], and she looks
mon ham and corned beef as like hideous
nightmares. the fantasma of a disappolnt-
ed picnic dream. Instead she chooses ~
sueculent sweetbread, the dellcale chicA-
en- and the reliable duck.
She ,picks out nice little reishes anu
nacks them up with cake. she KNOWS
when to begin and when to stop, n your
evenings at home for a long while AFTER
are nleasant "reminiscences of that picnic
feast.
There is the rowing girl Of course
the girl who likes to get in a boat ana
erasn both oars and pull you away some
where. If you are a lazy man, captlvate
+bis e;rl for now is the time when she IS
,,sef,ll. IF she be exactly the right sort OF
. rowing girl she will allow you to lie on
vo,,r cushion in the bow of the boat anu
read while She sits in the midoie anu
n,,us IT is good exercise for the arms and
she knows it. Shed rather row you lhai,
have you row her. Then there's the 81
who likes to be rowed-bul, on oear'
that's another story! Look out 1or hef'
unless you've got nothing but muscle!
The bathing girl is the summer CO.
ouatte. She likes to get into the water
and let YOU float her. She's an aggraVal-
ing thing. the bathing girl, and she firts
with YOU and oftens trap you in a way
that is tantalizing, bewitching ana capti-
waiting.
The wild flower girl is the sentimental
one. She's always looking for some nrtie
frail blossom, and you must help her nunl
for it. AS a rule she gets the blossom ana
YOU at the same time, for she is 50 sweet.
SO delicate. SO sentimental, SO coy, SO APP
pealing that you cannot resist her. Con-
stance Fennimore Woolson's Anne
found her hero while looking for a DO
tanical specimen. Though her fingers
were muddy and her hair dfshevelled ne
loved her Just the same. But your wald
flower girl manages ito keep her hands
pressible and her hair, in all her excite
ment, take on the right curl.
The bicycle girl is no stranger! You
all know her and doubtless like her. She
is so companionable. You can ride ahead
of her. or behind her, or you can ddsmount
and fix your wheel. She takes everything
all right and is as jolly as can be. she
climbs the hills herself, coasts down,
picks herself up if she fails and goes on
her way pedalling as jolly as you, every
time. This bicycle girl is the most popu-
lar of ali the summer girls and she wears
the best, but sometimes you want q
change.
There is the athletic girl of course,
The baseball, the football and the basket
ball girl. Dear me, what a big creature
she is. Big in muscle and long in step.
Yet there are some men who love her just
as they love her near cousin-the lawn
tennis girl.
Somebody once asked the date when
the summer girl came out for the sea-
son md the answer was: The first OF
June! She blossoms with the flowers.
Anyway she is here now and you've only
got to open your eyes to see her. Maybe,
if you know her well. you car close them
and conjure her up just as she is this
bright June weather.
