One of the interesting things about
any summer resort is the ever chang
ing population. Each week some
folks depart for their homes while
others arrive for their stay at the
shore. A small number of the cot
tages are not open, but the rule is
that each is full and in some cases
overfiowing. With the exception of
one day last week, the weather for
the past ten days has been delightful.
Warm in the middle of most days,
but the evenings with the full moon
over the water have been perfect.
Weiner roasts are continuing to be

affairs have a habit of growing and

are there.
