C"i EASIDE. Or., June 22. "More peo
pie here right now than there ever
' was before at the same time of
year." is the way the old-timer puts
It when expressing an opinion on the
present Summer population of Seaside.
Hundreds of people made their way
to the beach as soon as the spirit of
the Rose Festival departed. And
majority of them are Easterners. Dr.
end Mrs. H. H. Everett, of Lincoln,
Neb., are numbered among them. Dr.
Everett Is a well known physician and
he and his wife have traveled exten
sively covering the United States and
Europe. Dr. and Mrs. Everett visited
Portland during the Rose Festival and
are now visiting at the beach for a few
days.
Mrs. Caroline Hepburn, of Portland,
has arrived at the beach to be a guest
at the home of her brother, C. B.
Woodruff, manager of the W. P. Ful
ler Company of Portland. Until a year
ago Mrs. Hepburn made her home in
New York City. She was asked how,
according to her opinion, the Beach it
self compared with the Eastern beach
es, and she could quickly reply that
Oregon beaches were the best of them
11. Of course there Is one natural
feature about all the Western beaches
that comes ahead of the East, and
that is the beautiful sunsets that are
to be seen. They truly are wonderful
and everyone watches the clock late in
the afternoon so as not miss being on
the water's edge just as the sun ap
pears to sink into the waves.
Fire Ior Not Spoil Season.
Perhaps one of the reasons why the
beach season has opened nearly a
month earlier this year than it has
previous years was on account of the
upbuilding and the great transforma
tion that had to be made here within
such a short time after the fire de
stroyed a part of the town. To be sure,
the buildings are only temporary for
line substantial ones are to be erected
this Fall, but people have come down
here full of enthusiasm and determined
that the fire shall not spoil the sea
son. Along the board walk many new
cottages are to be seen.
