when the summer excursion business is at flood
tide, almost all Of Atlantic City's one thousand
hotels and boarding houses are open to receive
the spring merrymakers who pour in at the rate
of 300 carloads day for several days before
Easter. What the Easter invaders lack In num-
bers they make up in spending power and this
insures them double welcome the great
amusement highway where the opportunities of
retail trade such that much as $4,000 a
year rental is charged for a tiny store room.
That the Easter rush seaward means such q
golden harvest for the hotel keepers and mer-
chants at the Brighton of America is all the more
significant when it Is taken into consideration
that many of the Easter visitors come only for
the week end"-that is. for the interval from
Friday afternoon to Monday morning.
Atlantic City at Eastertide Is the board walk
and the board walk is Atlantic City. In the sum-
mer the great bathing beach is, Of course. the
prime attraction for many of the visitors, but
nobody cares to indulge In dip In old ocean at
Easter unless. mayhap, 1t be some venturesome
individual in quest Of notoriety. This being the
case, the board walk becomes the center of attrac-
ton and right well does It meet the responsible
ity. Following the example Of Atlantic City, al
most every seaside community has erected a
board walk. but the one at Atlantic City is in a
class by ITSELF 1t is upward Of five miles long, is
40 feet wide throughout its main section and cost
more than quarter of million dollars.
On the one hand this board walk affords prom
enaders an unobstructed view of the sea, while
on the other the marine esplanade is lined with
hundreds OF restaurants. amusement places OF
every imaginable kind and the most fascinating
shops in America. Interspersed at frequent inter
walls are art auction rooms A large proportion
of the visitors to Atlantic City are women and
of course no woman can resist the temptation of
real bargains-a fact of which the willy Japs who
conduct these auction emporiums are manifestly
well aware. Aside from the neverending process
sion of variegated humanity. unlimited free
amusement is provided by the picturesque 'bark-
ers" the fakirs the street musicians and the sand
sculptors who line the board walk Finally great
amusement piers of steel construction-each, In

It may be remarked that the luxurious

not so we'll patronized at Easter as In

that the Gulf stream comes nearer to the coast

Millinery Is one OF the most impor-

woman who wishes to be we'll dressed.
and to-day the cult of the plain hat Is
as carefully considered as the elabo-

as the budget itself. The craze for

to predict that as the winter ap-
