EACH SEASON IS DIFFERENT.
No White Sulphur season OF gayety is
exactly like its predecessor. Each has its
individual characteristics. Some social
evils are overcome in one season. while
others grow apace. The bette noir of one

THIS SUMMERS RECORD.
This season has been pronounced by
everybody to have been most delightful.
There have been many beautiful and at
tractive women here; many agreeable and
distinguished men. The balls and ger
mans have been brilliant and numerous
the card parties exceptionally elegant |
and the private dinners, suppers. break
1asts. and luncheons unusually elaborate
and tasteful.
The comfort Of each guest has been
carefully provided for, the hotel and
grounds have been exceptionally well
kept, and the company has been large
and thoroughly representative from every
section OF our country.
