w o,a.fashioned darky servants. and
IN ,nr full of northerners who live at

W. of the little brides of last win.

3 nNE of the most distinguished guests
Yin Cape May lately was Lieutenant
Jacques Raffray. of the French army
( xho was the guest of Marshall Earl Reed
~ the Yacht club. Lieutenant Raffray
mike to the men at the barracks on
Monday. telling them some of the newest
4 things in trench warfare. He has been
seyerely wounded, and because Of this
has come to America for several months
The coast reservists were muchly inter
T ested for, though they are not expecting
active entry into the war, you never can
tell Just what may happen in these days
70 It's well to know all about defense, is
4 not? Especially first hand.
A dance was given on Wednesday
hight at the new barracks for the mem
4 bers Of the Naval Coast Reserve, and il
vas an extremely jolly party. as every
one left in Cape May attended and had a
good time and tried to give one to the
h boys in blue
THIS month and next are the prime
weather months for the Alleghanies,
an told. and quite a few Philadelphians
have gone down to White Sulphur
\ Springs. Goll-uff, the sport par excel
lsnce at this famous resort is taking q
( pew lease on life. they tell me. and there
he more enthusiasts on the course every
day. II is a wonderful game for men
but oh! so ungraceful for women Dom
you think?
woman has got to be wonder tC
Icok attractive in golf clothes, with fla
rubber-soled shoes and feet turned in
% one must to get some of the desired
strokes 1t may be great exercise, but i
certainly is not becoming. Give me a gir
on horse any time to look at in prefer
ence to the flat-footed, wide-waisted an,
ssnerally uncorseted golferess. Perhaps
h because SO few of the younger gen
ention go into it that most of tn
women who play golf are of the heav.
Vpe' but they certainly are and they cer
ulnly do spoil the landscape.
n AFTER that dissertation am afraid t.
- say who is down at White Sulphu
lor fear you might think I am criticizin
me women there. but I give you m
v0rd have never seen any of those VIII

I'M not hitting at any one. In fact,
