Natural Bridge

Especial to The Richmond Virginian.)
NATURAL BRIDGE, VA, Sept. II.
AS the bridge has the great advantage
OF being an all the year round resort,
each new season Is but continuation
of the old and finds no change of ar
rangements or any limit set TO the
length Of ones sojourn. The fall sea-
son is now on in fun swing, and offers
its pleasures of time and place. The
September days are perfect on these
heights and are thoroughly enjoyed
by the fall colony. Some Of the days
have been too cool for meetings of the
piazza club and its members have had
TO take their lively chatter, embroidery
and bridge to the cheering warmth of
log fire in the lobby. Riding and
driving, swimming and fishing, tennis
and bowling still make UP the outdoor
life
Quite the most stirring event of this
month will be the meeting OF the Acca
Chapter of the Mystic shriners to be
held here on the Gath. They win
come two hundred strong, and will
have a parade under the bridge with
brilliant illumination in their honor
and later toothsome banquet.
