all over the country has driven thousands
of people to the seashore, and those who
came to Capt May were handsomely re-

vailed throughout the week and have
been blown off the ocean with strong
southeasterly winds. Social events have
| centered about the golf clubhouse. the
yacht clubhouse, the hotel loDbies and

bathing has been excellent and the water
| reaching a temperature which has been
not only invigorating, but exceedingly
