Straw hats have made their appearance
and they are here to stay. They came out
with q rush along with the warm weather
OF last Sunday. and they have stayed In
spite of the fact that. the weather took
sudden change for the cooler the next day.
Last Sunday on the beach looked very
much like q summer day. There were
thousands OF promenaders on the esplanade
and hundreds Of people were sitting on
the sand or in the beach chairs enjoying the
warm sun. There were many bathers, but
while they found the air quite pleasant the
water was somewhat cold. and they could
not remain In the water for any great
length of time. A number Of additional
pleasure yachts were placed In commission
during the present week and everything
Is beginning to take on an air Of summer.
Atmospheric conditions. however. this week
have savored more of fall than summer,
for it has been quite cool and the thin
dresses which were SO popular on Sunday
had to be laid aside for a few days.
