Searsport has this summer added to her
usual avenues of enjoyment. Among the
yachts in the har Dor have been the Lora !;
the First; the Marion the Bowery Girl the
Mary and for short time the Edna of Bel

the beautiful drives in all directions have
been thoroughly appreciated by our numer-
Gus visitors. Sea bathing has been rather
neglected owing to The chronic dislike of
most people to ice water plunges. Tennis
has been revived with enthusiasm. Rev. R.
G. Harbutt has taken possession of one of
the down town courts and put it in prime
condition and he extends cordial invitation
to the visitors to enjoy the sport.
