It has been remarked that Salt Lake
Is an ideal place for summer enter
tainment and it has seemed by the so
ciaI activity of the past week that the
first hot breath of summer was not
enough to Quench the social ardOr.
Perhaps the proximity of mountains,
summer resorts and lake lends an ad-
diu0nal attraction TO "alI the comforts
Of home. Tt is true that the usual
exodus To cooler chimes has not taken
place this year, and many homes are
thrown open TO guests who are fleeing
from the heat of eastern cities. thus
prOClaiminE their preference for Salt
Lake as q summer residence. The com
ing week has already quite a list Of
attractions. dinners. informal teas.
lawn fetes and the ever popular lake
party making up the calendar.
