precates the fact that they are not

welcomes a return to simplicity, and
most of all do the very people who have
been in the whirl of extravagance with
oil its tedious formality.
The alorious weather now is the
(juration for motor picnics and all friv
olities typical or summer tune, ana prac
tically everyone is spending the biggest
part or the timo out of doors.
Tho beach cottages are opening rap
