NEW YORK, June 26.-After
completing the most brilliant calendar
OF Winter and Spring entertainments
ever known in this city Of glittering
affairs, the members OF the smart
set are departing to the various
Summer resorts. Although many are
going abroad, the lure Of the fashion
able centers in the East is stronger
than ever and predictions are heard
at Newport, Bar Harbor, the Adiron-
dacks. the Berkshire Hills. South
ampton, Beverly, Narragansett Pier
and other spots where prominent New
Workers enjoy recreation periods that
the influx will set new records.
OF course the season at Newport
received early impetus through the
visit Of the Crown Prince and Princess
of Sweden. but the list of notables
who have reopened their Villas or
since the war. There has been an
enlargement of facilities at the private
bathing beaches, while the prepare
tons for fetes at the Clambake
Club and Casino indicate that the
colonistS will not leave until well into
September. The only shadow cast on
the splendor is occasioned by the in
timation that the annual horse show
may not be held on the usual dates,
September 4. and s. This exhibition
always was regarded as the climax to
the Newport season.
In former years the late Reginald
G. Vanderbilt and the late Alfred
Gwynne Vanderbilt We're the prime
movers in arrangements for the horse
show. Both were devoteeS of the tan
bark, and the event became one of
the most attractive features for the
colonists. Charles p. Williams has
taken the initiative this month In seek
ing to prepare a program which Will
live up to the Newport tradition, but
there are still many points to be
decided upon.
Among those who have already
gathered at Southampton. L. L.,
are Harold Sterling Vanderbilt, who
sailed into the harbor on his yacht the
Vagrant, accompanied by a party
Mr.. and Mrs. l. Townsend Burden,
Mr.. and Mrs. V. r. Thayer, and Mr..
and Mrs. Edward p Mellon.
The first dinner dance and formal
opening of the fashionable Maidstone
Club, at East Hampton. will take place
on July 3. This is regarded as the
premier OF the season and there have
been more than 800 dinner reserva.
tons made.
The surf dance, which is the official
welcome to Summerat Bar Harbor, will
be a prelude to the Fourth of July
celebration and the yachting regattas
for. which this picturesque place on
the coast of Maine is famous. Many
private affairs are being held at the
Pot and Kettle Club, which is exclu-
sively a mems organization. Plans un-
der way by the Bar Harbor Yachting
Club call for racing twice a week, be-
sides special contests on the ocean.

That's only right.

He's different person more re-

The Kenneth that Patricia is con-

Kenneth OF today doesn't merit any
of the rebuke she's handing out.
She's not planning to marry his old
self Shes planning to marry the new
man that he's made of himself.
Therefore she ought to forget the
specter OF the past--she ought to
have sympathy and understanding TO
accept him for what he Is now. Who
is she to set herself up as a Judge?
Let her be thankful for what he is
today--not miserable over what he
was some years ago.
A lurid past isn't half as important
