SUMMER By Doris on this page to-day. [O says idle rich? One turn around the golf links or a few minutes spent at the Casino ing the tennis games, or a trip Bailey's Beach soon convinces one that all the mem- bers of society have gone in for sports with an en- thusiasm this year that is more in- tense than any season before. All the cottages have been opened earlier than_ heretofore and already there is practicing and eager anticipation for contests later in the season 1 a Society life is apt to leave one, at the end of the @eason, fagged. Years ago a sea ‘voyage or a rest at a sanitarium was the refuge at the close of the social season, But more and more the value the sports as a rest cure, as a tonic jagged nerves and a developer of most beautiful body, has come to be. recognized as the natural reaction for the winter's festivities. TAt first the sports at Newport were in more as a fad, but as the real benefits came to be known and realized, society took hold with a vim, and now to watch them at play one se@n recognizes that sports are not in as a fad but seriously and fastically. In fact, in every sport our society girls have acquitted tiipmselves creditably with splendid records to their account and this sea- sdn gives promise of breaking last n's records. *Outdoor life always tends to inten- ify the beauty of face and. form. . Howard G. Cushing has kept her lithe and girlish figure by her aétivities on the tennis court. Majory Qelrich’s attractive physique can also be credited to her interest in sport Mfe, especially swimming. In fact, ‘of our society women have been pee benefited by their outdoor Pleasures. No longer do we see such examples of over and under ai ment. Society has opportuni- ty for all kind of recreation and it well for the coming generation that outdoor sports are such general favorites, lo wonder that society was lured the natural attractions of the beauty of the coast of New- rt to make it their playground. The hoe formation of the shore susie @ natural beach around muting Rock is an attractive back- ground for a dip into the sea. Here for many seasons in this secluded nook members of the ‘‘Four Hundred" have taken their first dip and re- ed every year to bring their ise to enjoy this beach, nestled as it is among the crags of the shore. ‘There is the closest family atmos- phere and never mind what the plans fre for the day every one finds time for a dip at the beach. It is charac- teristic of the members of this set that they do not lounge on the beach, but spend the time mastering a good ptroke. It is very difficult for the “I’our undred” to get away from the con- Yentionalities of social life. Perhaps that is why they derive such keen enjoyment from swimming at Bailey's Beach, Although thelr costuming is extremely conventional, and they do not lounge on the beach after the dip, the pleasant intercourse of friend- ships renewed and mutual enjoyment of the simple pleasures of Nature bring these members back season after season for rejuvenation on their own playrround. If you want to know what real fun try swimming on a mattress, as Wis done at Newport, These are air tmittresves, And it is a most delightful sensation to stretch ont on their Wilowy softness and paddle yourself ‘with your arme and legs, It teaches you balance, because if you are not very careful you soon have a spill, It develops the arms and legs, and riding the breakers along the cliffs \s indeed enjoyable.

After fifteen minutes’ riding on one of these air society's cares are for- At most every function during the winter dancing is engaged in, which in a way is a splendid exercise, but for symmetry of figure and even de- velopment, swimming Is by far the petter exercise, So that It Is no won- der that both debutante and matron go in for this sport. . Girls who will inherit millions are pt to be so closely guarded in their rly childhood that they would lack itiative, independence and physical tality were it not for their early barticipation in sports.

It takes courage for a little kiddie to master her timidity and venture out on the white-capped waves for the first time without the supporting arm of her instructor. But as an antidote for the protected life of the rich child swimming has no equal. Mechanical toys overcrowd the nursery—but just look at the smil- ing faces of the group illustrated on this page. Olive Whitman, Miss Stone, Dudley Davis, J. F. Clarke, J B, Duke, Adrian Iselin's daughter, John Smith and Moriarity Foster, and you will see from the happy look on their faces how much they really enjoy the natural fun of the beach. Swimming has given to Marion Wickes a beautiful set up figure. She's a record breaker at short and long distance and {s daily practicing to protect her laurals for this season. Sea nymph and artist of the waves though she is, every one {s so en- thugiastic about swimming at the beach that there are many who will lead her a close second. Where will you find more attractive physiques, and enthusiastic swim- mers than such young women as Florence and Evelyn Loew, Anna Carley and Marjorie Oelrichs? Nobody can actively engage in sports without broadening their sym- pathies and acquiring a certain grace and poise that only athletics can give Do YouKnow The Locust Trees Famous Old Courting Place. for New York “Lovers.” Ts scarcity of benches in Cen- tral Park on summer evenings makes a problem. present-day Those who are not fortu- nate enough to have a canoe which they can upturn on some quiet by often look in vain far some place in which to let thelr fancies lightly turn to thoughts of love. Not so the youth of Mana-ha-ta centuries ago, A little south of the present Trinity churchyard there ws charming grove on a bluff cle vation of the North Rivér called “The Locust Trees," which was one of the most famous courting places on the island, New Amsterdam was celebrated, just beofre its cession to the English, for its young and :ar- riageable folk, and we are told that “shrewd travellers, who knew where » get a good capable wife, wooed and won their brides among the Outch Americans."* The moonlight, which is’ now lost on the sides of tall buildings, was supposed to have a peculiar charm on lovers whom it shone upon through the deep foliage of the big locust trees. And not so far from ‘Tho Locust Trees’? was another romantic spot known as the Clover Waytie, which Was a more popular daytime wooing place, We hear of an inter- esting romance of a sorrowing wid- ower of Gravesend who fell in love with a pink-and-white milkmaid the very instant that he caught sight of her sitting inthe Clover Waytie milk- ing her father’s cows, And the old- time romances were no slower to bloom than modern ones, evidently, because the historian goes on to state that before the milking was finished the sorrowing widower had made known his feelings and that the lovers rode to town on a fast horse and se- cured a Governor's license. Although one historian tells us that “inconstancy or even indifference ng married couples was unheard records show that the early New of, ‘Yorkers were right there with breach of promise suits. One Greetje Waeman, who was wooed In “The Locust Trees," later produced a marriage ring and two let- ters promissory of marriage and asked that one Daniel de Silla be “con- demned to legally marry her.” But Dan, like some of his descendants, blamed the whole affair on his boot- logger, Another cuftous law case is the in- junction to Pieter Kock &nd Anna van Voorst. After agreeing to get mar- ried, they were mutually unwilling to do the deed. Burgomasters decided that in that case neither of them should marry without the consent of the other and of the court. Which seems to have held very well in the case of Pleter but not long after we hear of Anna marrying a handsome burger without asking the consent of any one. Perhaps it wasn't Anna's fault, but the curious spell cast by the moon- Nght which shed its rays upon her and the burger through the deep foliage of ‘The Locust Trees,"* romancing ~ a Sass paRe ie oe LRICHS Ouipsswoos Py Roy L. e Copyright, 1922 (New York Even 66] WONDER what put the idea in your head for a big party of us to go camping out asked Mrs. Jarr.

Go on with the story. AU REVOIR. S$ the train pulled into Troy, A Sally realized how much she gared for this new friend, Richard Bennington. He, too, seemed to dread even a temporary parting and expressed the desire to run down the very next Saturday. ey “How long are you going to stay \oNerinte at Round Lake?’ he asked Sally, “the usual two weeks?"" “The usual four weeks," she coun- tered. I am taking two weeks at the firm's expense and two at my own. This is going to be a regular vacation for me." “Well, I am in Troy for only two weeks and on business,’’ he volun- teered, ‘but perhaps I can stretch it to two weeks more, if I can kick up some extra work to do. I certainly shall try to for I imagine Round Lake will suit me to a T. I've been there before, but never with a native of New York City to help me to appre- ciate its wonders,” Before they know it he had reached his destination and a hasty au revoir passed between them. Sally leaned her head back in the comfortable parlor chair and tried to begin her new novel, but she suddenly closed it with a bang and focused her thoughts around this new Richard Bennington, Did she like him? Was he the type of man she really wanted (a ipaies EAS Boi Ne to meet upon her vacation? Oh, well, she would only see him for week- ends and that would leave her the rest of the week to meet whomever she pleased. She smiled when she thought she was leaving the city to make new friends, and here she was really cul- tivating a city friend. Then she thought of Tom Reed, the young man whose desk was next to hers in the office, who had declared his love for her time and time again and whom her mother wanted her to marry. But that was the cause of her running off to Round Lake.

Lake proved to be a tiny little spot with a mere oasis of land and two large lakes running into each other. It was rustic and romantic, and even the old ramshackle board- ing house with its usual porch loung- crs, consisting merely of women en- waged in tatting and tattling, thrilled her. How she would give them ma- terial to buzz over with her week-end Apollo! Her room looked out upon the water and the first bird she saw hovcring over its edge was a long legged king- fisher, the very type Bennington de- scribed 80 well. Sally hastily unpacked her two great suit cases and gave orders to the landlady where she desired to have her trunk placed, ‘Then she removed her tailored suit and donned a starchy pink gingham dress and proceeded down the path which led to the boat- house, “Want a boat?” fisherman, “Yos."" yelled a native “Know how to manage one? The lake is pretty trickey,"’ he warned, “I know all about boats," she haughtily replied though her only ex- perience had been rowing in Central ark with a number of girls who did most of the work.
