r -1ANY are preparing to fit to the
EMI seashore or the lodge in the
mountains and some have al
II \ ready gone. Boise is so beauti-
full at this time of the year, and
particularly so this summer, that one
is tempted to wonder why people so
away at ALL 1t is probably due to the
national love of change. Eastern and
southern visitors (and there are some
charming women from both sections
now in the city, find our cool mountain
breezes most refreshing. The summer
dances on the roof garden of the Hotel
Owyhee have tended in a measure to
revive the otherwise languishlng social
atmosphere which has prevailed during
the week. The air has been surcharged
with intellectually for ten days or
more and an evening on the roof garden
for some people Is a positive relief,
One brilliant and witty devotee of fash
ION whose field of amusement has
ranged from Paris to San Francisco,
naively remarked at the Wednesday
evening dansant while the cabaret
song birds were warbling, "Chautauqua
is for the benefit of people whose edu-
cations were neglected in youth, and is
therefore not for me" The roof garden
appeals directly to the business man
wearied with office cares and he likes
TO have his wife with him, and she
likes to go. The gay set likes 1t be-
cause 1t is the one place which has
touch Of the larger social life Of the big
cities outide. Many Of the frequenters
of the cool, airy place come from the
cosmopolitan centers and bring with
them the grace and skill acquired in
fashionable dancing schools abroad.
Fortunately, Boise, as far from the
metropolitan centers as 1t Is, has still
enough of variety in the matter of en-
tertainment to interest everyone. Mo
toring is one of the principal diversions
during the evenings the town being
filled with autos which find the country
roads around the city full Of charm.
Some entertaining has also been done
for visitors and going away friends.

Before afternoon the sign is most

to push all business affairs.
Under this conflguration all who
rule whether in high or humble office

United States should be particularly
fortunate.
Politicians who hold office and
