A thousand summer joys for the vacationist
Rugged hills, grassy valleys, babbling streams, quiet bays, dusky woods, the surging surf
Such are some of the charms of Long Island
The cool sea breezes which sweep over Long Island make comfortable the nights and lend invigorating dash to every imaginable summer pastime during the day.
If you are sport hungry join the happy folk following the gutta-percha ball over green, rolling links; go with the old weatherbeaten Capt’n on his sloop to the favorite fishing haunts; take a romp on white, sandy beaches or a plunge in the surf; play a set or two of tennis at one of the many country clubs; paddle a canoe or sail a boat on one of the picturesque bays. This is the real vacation spirit, and Long Island is brimming with it.
In the evening fishermen and hunters, with their old clothes and cigars, swap yarns in blissful peace, while through the windows on the clean salt breeze come the stains of the orchestra, and with it, keeping time, footsteps in the brilliantly lighted ballroom. Every one closes a day of pleasure in the way each finds pleasantest. Such is the versatility of Long Island’s hospitality.
