but the place did not appear to be
crowded until the late trains of the

were present at 10 o'clock Tuesday

the floor of the dancing pavilion and
gathered in little groups in the big
ship cafe. There was a constant stream
of people 10 and from the small con-
cessons and the Figure 81 the
Pilgrim s Progress, the Old Mill, jew
els's Manakins, the Japanese tea gar

Weather Is Superb.
Nothing could have been better than
The weather conditions served up by
DR.. Hyatt. section director for the
weather bureau, for the air about the
famous resort was cool enough TO be
pleasant and yet just warm enough to
permit the wearing OF most exquisite
creations by the ladies and to make
enjoyable the little tete-a-tetes in the
balconies of the pavilion. Hundreds of
young men swung their pretty partners
to the seductive strains of Peterson s
orchestra, and hundreds of gay cou-
pies took advantage of the bathing fa
cllities and the warm waters for q dip
IN the lake. Many strolled about the
attractive board walks, which stretch
il nll directions about the resort.
