Show THE BEB R The Resorts. resorts have all lecn well patronized during the week, ami ample attractions have been provided for the public. In fact, so far as summer amusements are concerned. Salt Lake can accommodate a population several times as large, and still have resorts to spare. 'I Jit various The beauties of majestic Saltair are being appreciated more than ever this vear. The season was late for the opening, but when the clouds rolled by, crowded trains began to roll in. Every day, from high noon until the midnight hour, happy throngs of pleasure-seeker- s enjoy themselves at Salt-aiChristensens orchestra is in attendance every day, and the music discoursed is of the highest order, and inspiring both to the head and feet. When the lights are blazing and the music tinkling, nowhere on earth can be beheld a grander sight than the hundreds of Utahs buds of promise as displayed in the girlish beauty and boyish grace of the future men and women of our proud state, swaying to and fro in perfect rhythm, in the great pavilion, situated on the silvery waters of Utahs mysterious inland sea. The accommodations for family picnics are unsurpassed, and nothing can be more conducive to health than to take your basket and dine out on the lake, for the inhalation of pure salt air gives one a keen appetite, and natural results are health and happiness. People who look out of smeared glasses see things darkly, and every little while we hear of immorality at the lake resorts, etc. The writer has spent many pleasant hours on the shores of our great lake, and the methods adopted in managing Saltair seem to me as perfect as human nature can make them. Saltair is one vast parlor, where everybody sees everybody. The promenades are wide and open. The bath rooms are all single, and none of them are connected bv door or entrance. If debauchery is indulged, it is only by the most depraved m r. retches, and such conduct, under com- such conditions, is bevond r prehension and revolting in the extreme. We do not believe that such debauchcrv is carried on at the resorts, as suggested in an editorial of The News of July .23rd. If so, the svstems of train-in- g our young people in our homes, in our V. M. C. A., or in our Voting Peoples M. I. A. ace failures. We do not believe such things are going on. The young people of Utah live on a higher plane of morality than the one suggested. The lake resorts are run for pleasure, and not dissipation. Every guard possible is put around the young and old for protection from vice and ignorance. Parents need have no fear for the young people while at Saltair. w redge and her company, com- Salt Lake & Los Angeles posed of C. W.

The attendance this season is certainly better than it has been for many summers past. People are crowding the resort every day, and this in spite of the fact that no special attractions are offered. The bathing is so far superior, however, that it makes little difference about amusement features. Last Monday was Pioneer Davat the Beach, and thousands of old and young went out. It was a great day. Manager Levy, of Calders Park, has no cause to complain. He gets about all the crowds the place can accommodate, and that makes a multitude. Calders is best patronized during the evening. Zehnters orchestra is in daily attendance, while on holidays Helds great military band gives sacred concerts. There is nothing slow about Bamberger. He works hard to get people out to the Lagoon, and succeeds. Sunday and Monday were two of the biggest days in the history of the place, and visitors found amusements galore. Ver Valin, the Punch and Judy artist, a high diver, and a balloon ascension were among the features. Then there was Miss Ruth Eld- - Trans-Mlsslssip- pl m LAGOON... The Great Family Resort.
