Virginia and New Jersey VIII Attract Many
New England People During Spring Months.

Ola Point Comfort and Virginia Beach
In Virginia and Atlantic City, in New Jer-
sey, will attract large numbers of New
England people who look for some place
IN the relaxing spring months for a little
rest and recuperation. There are among
the most interesting seaside resorts of
the Atlantic coast. Old Point Comfort IS
tne popular rendezvous of army officials
Fortress Monroe being located here and
Virginia Beach, with 50 miles OF hard
sandy beach is par excellence the best
automobile track in the country. and May

Mr.. Oldneld will probably be accom-

weeks come to the attention OF the auto
mobile sporting fraternity.
good deal depends upon Mr.. Oldf1eld's
visit. He has been persuaded TO come here
by Lee Strauss. who has been working
enthusiastically and energetically in the
interest OF the forthcoming Virginia auto
mobile meet for some time. II Mr.. Old

vantages measure up TO the claims OF It's
advocates, there Is little doubt but that he
will exert his influence henceforth in favor
OF Virginia Beach for many OF the more
important tournaments pulled off I'm this
country. The extent OF this influence
would probably require no extended di-
lation I'm view of the identity OF the thor

Atlantic City being such a short run
from New York, many OF our Providence
families will undoubtedly enjoy the IN
breezes here. direct from old
ocean. during the next four months, prior
to their customary outing in the White
Mountains.
