rarebit and the all-day mountain excur-
sion have ushered us into the September
season. a season whose opening we mark
as a red-letter day because it means,
among other delightful things. that Mr.
and Mrs. Fred. Mcguire. Mss Josephine
Davis and Mrs. Henry W. Fuller OK
Washington, have claimed the places kept
for them all the summer.
1t means. too. that the slackening bonds
Of acquaintance fall asunder; that friends
draw closer to each other; that coteries
merge into one happy group, in which
the form and ceremony Of July and Au-
gust have given place 10 human inter
course and where intimacy never SIPS
into familiarity. The sky IS one great
throb OF tender vivid blue. and the rich.
sweet air is tremulOus with the promise
Of golden fuihiment The valleys are
ablaze with gOidenrod, ana across the
mountains the sun breaks IN Akhls ana
shadows as beautiful as poets dream,
as fleeting as childs fancy. Even the

and there are fishermen enthusiastic
enough To rise at o'clock and come home
