Ml Many weddings and weddings are always Interesting to road about r scheduled to take place In June, but at present golf, and during the warm days pt the fore part of the week, boating on tho Willamette river were the principal mode of enjoyment. It la surprising how very alowly lov ers of outdoor sports took to using the river as a means of entertainment, but now that this blessing with which Port land Is naturally endowed, has become . appreciated, there Is scarcely an evening when it la safe for a yacht row boat, or launch to be operated, that the river from fit Johns to Ross Island Is not dotted here' and there with many kinds of craft, all filled with merrymakers. ' Not only Is the aquatic sport enjoyed, but In this manner can be reached many beautiful spots that otherwise, would be Unknown. The river will probably be used more than over this summer, for. it seems that the fad among society people will be to take short trips from Saturdays to Mondays, and In consequence boating Will take up much of the warm after ' noons and evenings. 8f Bf r Already there Is some planning for at tending the regatta at Astoria this fall. Invitations have been sent out by the regatta committee to different rowing ' clubs and acceptances are even now com ing In from different crew. The best 'Frisco oarsmen will undoubtedly attend. A war vessel will be placed at Astoria during the sports If Senator Fulton has his way about It. Hs has already Writ ten to the Secretary of the Navy request ing it The regatta Is an event always much enjoyed by Portland society. The golf tournament has seemed to revive all the golfers' pent-up energies of the winter season and at any time of the day from early in the morning until shortly before dinner time, one can see Tom, Dick and Harry, with their clubs. making their way to the links. Their complexions have already taken on rud dy swats of tan; tfter wsllfwlth shoulders thrown back and one can tell a golfer at a glance, even after he has donned evening dress. X J The largest gathering of the week was at the reception given by the Council of Jewish Women, and the dance given by the Gamma Eta Cappa Fraternity, and in these two functions society has felt that they were royally entertained this week.
