Although Saturdays weather was
very Indictment, it did not keep the
weekend crowds from RehobOth.
Belhaven Hotel was filled to its ca
pacity, also the two cottages on Will
mington avenue which is also owned
by Mrs. M. c. Barnett.
Belhaven is going to have a none
sense dance night called the Bowery
Brawl, on Tuesday evening, July II.
Plans are being made to show ev-
erybody a good time.
George Kelly and his Original
Band will play for the dance next
Saturday night, July 21st. The con-
tinuous dancing idea affords the
young dancing crowd plenty of JAZZ
zy music for dancing, also it re-
lieves the great crowds that patron
ize the Belhaven's Saturday night
dances.
