The brilliant moonlight nights Of late
have been very opportune for the sport
for which this section Is famous, and
as result ..the horn OF tho hr.nter
Is heard on the hill" with an eiithu-
siastic following to the haunts OF the
red fox. Mr.. c. II. Paxton. master OF
the hunt, has an unusually fine pack
of hounds this season. When the chase
is on, and the hounds in full cry. the
music OF their deep. resonant bayins
reso3nds from Hill to hill.
Messrs. G.. NJ. Gusgenhcimer, e. NJ.
Jones. Page and Richardson are Keen
.sportsmen and fine riders. and are al
ways ready for this favori.e Dasttme.
Among the ladies who Join In the
chase are the Misses Wood. OF Paris.
Texas; Mrs. e. +. Miller. Lynchburg.
and Miss Marcia Paxton, OF Natural
Bridge. Miss Paxton Is one OF the
best horsewomen in this whole sec
ton. and is Eli expert at breaking
colts.
Bridge parties still hold their OWL,
1t being the one game that never sa-
tiates, but always gives promise, even
Wien one W lNNh, Vi
mo trump" next time. Mrs. Philip
Mason Cabell and Mrs. C. 81. GuGgen-
heimer may well be put up against

calls each and NIL. whatever their
amusement or occupation may be. 10
tho swimming pool, where old and
young. married and single. girls and
boys, give over to an hour OF perfect
abandon-aquatic sports OF all kinds,
wagers on the swimmers and divers,
down to interest In the tiny tots, who
take to the water like ducks, and
swim away unconsciously. to the
.amazement and envy OF many OF the
grown ups, who blow themselves up
like porpoises and expect to float like
soap.
Quite an interest is taken by the
equestrian guests OF the hotel in the
cross-country ride arranged by General
Vaughn for his staff, and already
,wagers are being offered on the records
they will make.
One of the loveliest brides OF the
week is Mrs. W. D. Wills. who was
Miss Wilkinson. OF York. Pa. Pro-
lessor Wills was an alumnus of the
Virginia Military Institute. SO, OF
course, selected for the honeymoon

enjoy day at the Bridge.
