They knit walking here. Never in the balmiest time of the knitting craze during the waf were women so de- voted to the gentle art of making wool into garments of all kinds as during this present season. Everywhere one goes there are women knitting. They knit seated, standing and walking, and as far as one can judge they knit at meals and probably in their sleep. No age seems exempt, nor any place. The Boardwalk I filled with women and girls, knitting their way up and down the beach, one at work on a blue sweater, one on a green one, a| yellow sweater, an ugly orange color __very popular—and so on through all the colors of the rainbow. They knit, while on the plers, too, and, the first thing one knows some irl will make herself famous by nitting one of those short sweaters while in the Surf. The restless, fascinating surge of the ocean has its human counterpart here in the great crowds which night- ly throng the famous Boardwalk. The height of the season seems reached. To those who ever lived in a typical small town the Boardwalk crowd pos- sesses no particular appeal. “Main street” in any town on Saturday nights is the same thing—on a much smaller scale. But to the thousands here from the larger metropolitan centers, Atlantic City’s long and wide Boardwalk seems fascinating to a tre- mendous degree. At about 8 o'clock in the evening the crowd reaches its maximum. The walk is filled with humanity, largely going in two gigantic streams, up and but constant small eddies of men, women, children—even dogs— filter in and out, up and down, and across. Two streams of rolling chairs going in opposite directions, act as pace- makers for the packed flow. This crowd is the best-behaved gathering in the world, perhaps. One may stay ‘here many days, and walk the Boardwalk until “boardwalk foot results—for which one may buy a lo- tion at a high price—and never see anything in the least ‘“out-of-the- way.” as it is called. This is a city at play, and they play the hardest on the Boardwalk. ~After several hours walking to and fro, the tired, foot sore walker is apt to say to himself, “This certainly is a silly ation.” OFet the mext night is pretty certain to find him pacing the boards. Taking the dog in bathing has af- forded an unusual amount of pleasure to batrers here this summer. Dogs, be it understood, are not ad- verse to water, as are their enemies— the cats—but the average canine is somewhat shy of surf bathing. Perhaps It is the pounding of the waves. Maybe it is because the salt water hurts his ears. Anyway, many dogs have to be coaxed into the water. i A rubber ball is the thing to iurn the trick. There is but one dog fhat will not yleld to the temptation to chase the ball thrown by its mast A Boston bull created great amus.- ment on the beach near the stecl e J \ sister, Mr. and Mrs. Charles P.

The sphere was Just a bit too large for him to con- veniently catch in his moutk. Ac- to jump at it, and bounce it on his nose. Once he managed to catch the ball on his nose six times before it finally hit the sand. and his feat was greeted with hearty applause from hundreds !ot bathers wko stopped to watch the un. The Pekinese, that dog dear to the hearts of many women, but generally detested by men, seems to be the only critter in the dog line that absolutely d;t&s(s the water, and will have none of it. One man attempted to take his wife's “peke” in today, while wifey stood on the sand. The hairy little dog pulled back with all its power, until the man finally grabbed it and tossed it bodily into a big wave. A gasp of protestation shook the crowd, but the dog emerged triumph- antly—and indignantly—swam to the beach, and shook itself with unwonted vigor. Then it pranced along the sand, shaking its head deflantly, and emit- ting barks of tremendous volume, considering the very small size of the dog. Anything will draw a crowd here. But two Eskimo dog puppies in a tasket are sufficient to block “traf- fic" on the Boardwalk. A tremen- dous crowd has gathered at the side of one of the piers. “Somebody hurt!” breathes a sym- thetic young woman. . But she does not know her Atlantic City yet. The big crowd has gathered to see some pupples. Everybody is out to be amused, and anything that is in the least novel will entertain. On the other hand, this is the city of cities where every one does about as he pleases, dresses as he pleases, acts as he pleases—and “gets away with ft.” While there is not much “spooning™ Lere, considering the great summer population, nobody thinks anything at all of a couple walking hand-in- hand up the Boardwalk. Sverybody does about as the in vidual pleases, and minds his own tusiness. It is veritably believed that one might walk on his hands up the Boardwalk-—if he could—and nobody would mind it in the least. All automobile speed laws are off here. Residents of other cities who feel that more stringent laws should be adopted against speedsters in their home towns get a jolt on Pacific ave- nue, the crosstown street just behind the Boardwalk. Thirty and forty miles an hour is slow on Pacific avenue. Traffic po- licemen are at every corner, Wwith “go-go” and “stop-stop” signs. when the “go-go” sign is switched on_the automobiles go. “Why do you run so fast?’ one of the 10-cent “jitney” drivers was asked. “The rest of 'em are coming so fast we'd get run over if we didn't,” re- vlied the driver.
