mountain resorts and seaside compe.
titiOn, New York continues to be one
Of the most popular summer resorts.
Sightseers from every possible
quarter Of the globe arrive between

desert.
Some years ago, when James w.
Dean conducted this department. he

thing the potential visitor should cut
out and put in his hat. With . few
additions of my own pass it or:
Five Cent trip-Board an ele-
waited train on any line TO South
Ferry. Second and Third Avenue
lines and Ninth Avenue lines afford
particularly good slants at the tene-
ments and cross section of the city's
life. At South Ferry, you can visit
