Sunday. Now their house is in the
hands of the carpenters and painters,
undergoing spring repairs and being
made ready for the advent of the fam
lily, who will come out for good about
the 18th of the month. The house Of
Mr.. and Mrs. Benjamin Nicoll near by
is also being fixed up for the spring
season and will be occupied at an early
date by the Nicolls and Lords.
The annual exodus to Atlantic City
has been in progress for several days
and will continue for a week longer.
This is the season when the spring fe-
yer of ennui runs strong in the veins
and a quiet little trip to the beach
works wonders in the matter of reju-
yenation. A few shifts of salt sea air,
brisk walks in the invigorating atmos-
phere, random chats with casual ac-
quaintances, give zeSt to life which
makes the return to town and the eter-
nal round of functions endurable.
Probably a hundred Morristonians are
now in Atlantic City for over Easter,
while as many more will go down dur
ing the coming week and quite large
number have already returned Among
those who have gone recently are Mr..
and Mrs. Pierre Smith, of the Miller
road, Mrs. Edward A. Day, Mrs. AL
bert S. Swords, Mr. and Mrs. r. l..
Higgins, Mrs. Thomas Bushnell, Miss
Bushnell, Miss Day, Miss Perry, Miss
Richard. of South street, and her aunt,
Miss Darke. Mr.. and Mrs. Frederick
Wooster Owen and Miss Owen have
been down for several days but returned
the first Of the week.
1t is a positive fact that Mr.. Charles
Bradley has bought the Flagge house
on Madison avenue, but it is also fact
that he will not occupy it this summer
as many alterations and repairs will be
made and it will be in the hands Of the
"enemy" for several months. In the
meantime Mr.. and Mrs. Bradley will
occupy.the Van Wrinkle house ton Mad
ison avenue opposite the Golf Club,
where the Clement GriscomS lived last
year. They will arrive in town within
the week and will spend the entire
season here. Mr.. and Mrs. Albert Fill
more Hyde will return the latter part
of this month and occupy the Hitch
cock house on Maccolloch avenue. Mr.
and Mrs. Gilbert Ramsay Potts will
return to town Immediately after
Easter, and with the exception of two
or three months in the summer will
remain until snow flies. Mr.. and Mrs.
Gustav e. Kissel and children came
out on Friday for a weekend stay at
" Wheatsheaf Farm. They will make
these little trips to Morristown weekly
until about the first of next month,
when they will come out for the sum-
mer. Mr.. and Mrs. Rudolph H. Kissel
will be at "Inamere Farm" before
the first of May.
1t was a splendid gathering of lovers
of literature at the home Of Mrs. Will
liam PWhite on Farragut place Tues
day afternoon when Mrs. Julia Reese
COLES gave the fifth Of her midwinter
parlor readings. The topic was "Se-
lections, Humorous and Otherwise,
and Mrs. COLES read from the works
of several of the celebrated humorists,
who also proved to be best at depicting
the shadows of life.
1t is very near time for the spring
wedding season but there are to be
only a few events of the kind this
year of interest to MorristonanS.
Invitations have just been issued for
the wedding of Miss Sarah Poythres
Smith and Mr.. Dudley James Belts
Dupignac, which is to take place in
Grace Church, New York, at O'Clock
on the afternoon of Tuesday, April
twenty-frst. Miss Smith is the
