walk this week has been wearing a bunch
of fragrant pink and white arbutus flow
ers. Great trays of them are presented
by the flower sellers at every street abut-
ting on the Boardwalk, and for the time
being this native spring flower has cut out
the fad for violets and roses. The arbu-
tus grows in great profusion all through
the pine woods which skirt the East Shore
trolley line and at Linewood and North
field in particular. so that many little par
ties have been taking the trolley at the
amusements by excursions in the woods
