 The home is near the quaint vil- lage of Hamburg and on Hamburg lower cove. New Britain guests motored down, following instructions given on the invitation to the af- fair, which consisted of an auto mobile road map. with landmarks upon them, sayorinE of the old-time mariners charts. Upon arrival they found that there were many points of interest 10 inspect about the house and immediate grounds. The antiques in the main house. the at tractiye decorations of former barn, which was converted into a studio, and the Bulletin board" which humorously informed guests of their privileges and the points of interest about the cove, occupied much attent: |.
 Luncheon was served at l:S0, fol- lowing which numerous diversions offered. Wittsteins orchestra furn- ished music, the athletes moved to- ward the ball field and others fur ther inspected the grounds. The Cooper yacht, the Seminole" was placed at the disposal of those who would take sail through the cove q ,Sthe adjacent river, a hospitali- ty that was literally patronized.
