the Summer resorts are now at the
height of their activity, and will be
crowded until Labor day, September j.
Most of the resorts got on TO o
bad start, with July dull compared
to other seasons, but all are now
making up for their July losses. There
will be q general exodus from the
resorts, however, soon after Labor day,
for despite the fact that the weather Is
usually delightful from then on until
the middle of October, schools. colleges
and business call most Of the families
home. Newport, however, will be an ex-
ception due to the International Cup
races over the yachting courses. The
first Of these races will take place on
September Is, and the racing may not
end until the end of the month. 1t Is
safe to say that practically all the
yachts in Eastern waters will be
anchored off Newport for the races.
There will be much entertaining aboard
each, and the villa colony at Newport
will entertain large house parties in
connection with the races. All the hotels
will be filled. and 1t will be almost i'm
possible to secure accommodations at
the Rhode Island resort.
But Newport will have a strong rival,
for New York and its suburbs will have
many attractions, including the interna-
which has been tentatively set for Sep
TENDER 6. The British players have ar
rived and are practicing out on Long
Island almost daily These games will
attract members Of society from all
over the country, and the city, State
and Federal governments will be repre-
scented in the boxes at Meadowbrook
All the estates on the island will be the
scenes of gay house parties, and there

will begin September at Forest Hills,
and the Fall racing season will be re-
sumed at Belmont Park the same day,
and the national singles tennis matches
