tee Of travelling abroad during the
summer.
The percentage OF resident Ameri-
cans In Europe is small as compared
with the great number OF summer
travellers. Even those who have for
years kept up summer places in Eng
land. France OF Germany have found
IL more "a their comfort TO remain
at home this season. Consequently
there has been an unprecedented de-
mand for villas and country Houses
at all of the great resorts near or far
from New York.
The great expositions on the Pacific
coast have been attracting the at
tention of American travellers. but
even were there no wars in existence
these eXpositions would demand but a
brief portion Of time and would not
altogether interfere with summer
travel. Few persons stay more than
a fortnight for the expositions, which.
although wonderful in their way, will
not seriously interfere with the regu-
lar season on the Atlantic a
Newport with It's nan attractions
peems 10 have the first call as a place
Of summer residence, and most of the
people who go there remain until the
end of the autumn season. While the
villas will have their usual occupants
many others forced to remain on this
eide OF the water by reason OF the
war nave taken villas there.
In addition to n few notable changes
in the personnel OF the regular colony
some new villas will add greatly tc
the interests Of this summer capital
one Of tho most extensive houses re-
Gently completed is that of Mr., and
Mrs. stuart Duncan, which II known
