May. the month of warm sunshine, OF
| ideal weather and all that goes to make
| the days agreeable, has arrived and the
| thousands of visitors sojourning by the
seaside here are CORRESPONDENCE happy.
| The spring which had been as slow In COM
| ing as the proverbial messenger boy, is now
here in all its glory.
| And the much-talked-of summer girl"
has also made her appearance. You can
| see her at the inlet she is about to take
a spin in one of the many pretty yachts:
/ she is on the piers at night waltzing with
| all the enthusiasm of youth around the pol
! ished ball room floor; you meet her in the
| grottoes and cafes. where she daintily sips
| her wine as she listens to the music of the
| band and orchestra; she has taken her ac-
| customed place on the strand, where she
/ will sit for hours and dig in the silvery
| sands with all the interest of a three-year-
| old child, and make one sand palace after
| another, only to see the perpetual surf come
| and destroy her handiwork. BW she is
popular. What would the shore be without
| the summer girl?
