G0zvns fv OAtdoot Sports
at Fashionable Ne1vpot7
Society Takes Kindly to Golf, Tennis croquet.
Boating and Bathing

C0ClETNZ bellies Newport this
year are going in for all sorts of
outdoor sports even more If any
thing than in previous years. They
play golf. and tennis and croquet; they
go boating and bathing. and last but
not least are the pleasures of the auto
mobile.
Last year golf was by far the leader
in the outdoor sports at Newport.
This year golf must take almost the
last place ON the list of fashionable
pastimes, though it still has its dew
otees among the fair sex with millions
to spend Us they see fit. 1t does not
take long to find reason for this. So
ciety seldom patronizes the amuse-
ments that are enjoyed by the common
classes, and golf has become entirely
too common 10 be popular with society
leaders, and they have dropped it as
they did wheeling some two or three
years ago.
Tennis on the other hand, has taken
on a new lease of life as society
pastime. and where last year the
courts were practically deserted they
are this year well patronized. \ still
stranger thing than the resurrection of
tennis, however, is the revival of cro-
quet, which has jumped to promi-
nent place, and to-day one finds GRO
quet gowns just as one finds gowns
designed for golf, tennis, riding, bath
ing or boating.
But of all the forms of amusement
for society at Newport this year none
are more popular than the automobile,
and it will probably remain in favor SO
long as the price of them remains out
of the reach of us common people, for
that is just TO society's liking.
Yachting and bathing always have,
and probably always will be popular
forms of amusement, and for both OF
