is enjoying season of great prosperity Never De-
fore IN its history, say. have there oeen so
many people here or so much going on IN con
trast to some of the well known resorts on the
Long Island coast, the hotels and boarding houses
are full and have the pleasure of being wen aheu
of the No need of goins out into tne hgh-
ways and byways and compelling people to come ln-
They come and and stay. Much of this sum
mers success and the growing popularity OF Sea
Cliff are no doubt due to the general increase OF
the whole islands fame as an interesting ana
'heaIthful vacation ground. Many have persuaded
themselves that Long Island Is soon 20 enjoy
boom such as was never dreamed Of a few years
age Nor is this the fanciful prediction of a well
wisher of the hotels From inquiries and 1nVestl-
cations made the entire length and breadth OF the
island 1t has been found that this is the opinion
of all who are in the least qualified for an ex-
nrassion of Judgment as to the welfare of the many
resorts along the coast. OF course, systematic ad
vertising has brought the public TO consideration
of Long Island a summer home and the eIIortS
of the railroad to increase education on the matter
have not been in vain But the noticeable increase
Of nopularitv has come as much from those who
have tried the place and then gone back home with
enthusiastic accounts thereof. 1t Is. therefore, a
healthy growth and really promises great future'
At Sea Cliff the season advances quickly and sue
cessfuly With crowd in a place there is little to
fear in the way of lack of amusement. The truth
is there is some likelihood that too much may De
going instead of too little. But that, OF course
House is full. The season advances with SUCH sue
cess that the MANAGEMENT intends TO remain open
until possibly the middle of october. believing the
expected warm September will warrant the exten-
sion of time. The usual summer amusements are
being enjoyed at this hotel, ffnnumeraDie euchres'
hops and such things.
