Many Families Plan Trip to
Long Beach Sunday or
Memorial Day

Summer time is here again and
with it the longing for the cool,
wholesome atmosphere of pine
laden breezes and the JOY of salt
water bathing.
The open spaces, more inviting
than ever before because of the
troublesome times, beckon the
work-weary city dweller to days
of sunshine, adventure, health,
rest, fun and relaxation. The
beaches, mountains and resorts
are calling.
Less than so miles from Wash
angton lies the reStful new sum-
mer community of Long Beach,
Maryland. During the short year
since it was established as bay
side community it has attained
an atmosphere of refinement that
has attracted scores of Washing
tonianS, many Of whom have built
or are now building their sum-
mer homes in this beautiful spot
On Chesapeake Bay.
Exclusive Development
Claimed by many to be one of
the finest summer communities
lying adjacent to Washington, it
has a special charm for conServa-
tive people who seek complete
rest, free from the noisy inter-
ruptions of the weekend excur-
sion crowds. and who enjoy on
the other hand a cool and invig-
Grating temperature, the glad
sunshine with it's tonic salt air,
and particularly the safe and
wholesome bathing for children
as well as adults on a broad,
sandy beach devoid of crowds and
noise.
Long Beach, though one of the
youngest shore developments on
Chesapeake Bay, has forged rap
idly ahead, until now it is one
Of the most popular of the bet
ter class beach communities.
Much of this growth in popularity
has been due to the wonderful
big salt water bathing beach, but
this natural advantage has been
simplified by the beautiful tree
covered home Sites,. and the pro-
gressive management, who have
realized the wonderful possibil-
tiles of this development, and
are rapidly building new road
ways along its slopes and i'm
proving its natural advantages.
Fine Sand Beach
The wide, gently sloping beach
Of pure white sand is of great
breadth and more than 1000 feet
in length, and the bathing is free
from treacherous gullies, under
tow and eddies, providing safety
and promoting confidence and
pleasure among even the most
timid bather. This splendid
sweep of firm, white sand, curv-
ing along the crescent shore, Of
fers one of the most princely
summer Fairgrounds to be found
anywhere along the Atlantic
Coast. And that the guests of
Long Beach may have added
pleasure this year, the manage
ment has provided an attractive
new bath house which has been
erected adjacent to the commun-
tty house and community park.
The community park also has
been improved with paintings of
flowers and Shrubbery and en-
closed by an artistic log fence.
Every effort is being made by the
management to establish a high
grade community and to maintain
its excluSiveness and natural
beauty.
Long Beach is planning to en-
tertain a large number of guests
today, Sunday and Memorial Day,
and much pride will be taken in
extending every courtesy to those
who drive down to see the many
notable improvements made at
this delightful shore community
during this winter and spring.

most enjoyable one, through a
beautiful countryside fresh with
the fragrance of flowers and bios
