As predicted, the beach filled with people as soon as the Elks' convention was over. The excellent weather, af fording plenty of opportunity for the coat of tan that so many seek and the thorough enjoyment of outdoor sports, brings many a family to Seaside. Hereafter a band will render music Sunday afternoons in the park Just off Bridge street. A pavilion has been erected for the musicians and seats for the audience.

Taylor, sand sculptor, entertained visitors for hours on the two days moulding por traits of McClellan, Grant. Lincoln, Longfellow, Taft, Roosevelt. Gladstone, Tolstoi, Bismarck, John Jacob Astor, "The Commoner." Diana and Mark Twain. His masterpiece and one with which he captured first prize in sand sculpturing at Atlantic City five years ago, was "Cast Up by the Sea." The figure was that of a woman with a child on her breast washed up by the sea. The moulded brow was perfect and the child's mouth was a veritable cupld's bow. What made it most real lstlo was the half reclining posture that the- figure was shaped In. The' face of the yellow kid was made on the flat sand and Into his open mouth those who appreciated art cast their spare Lcolns. Mr. Taylor was very modest when showered with compliments. He Is as brown as could he; working on the seashore for months and months has made him so. The sculptor orlg inally came from New Jersey, but for the past few years he has been travel ing from' one beach to another, so that he calls It home wherever he happens to be.
