LAKE PLACID, N.Y., Aug. 1. -- In addition to the events arranged by the Lake Placid Yacht Club, which are being carried out in their proper order, the young people at the different hotels are all actively engaged with entertainments and outings of their own devising.

One of the outings in which the young people at the Stevens House found much pleasure was a launch ride and super at Camp Swastika on Sunset Straits, in which those taking part were Miss Anna Cozzens, Miss Phyllis Verity, Miss Shannon, Miss Helen Isham, Ralph Viall, John McGraw, and Paul and Hubert Stevens. Early in the week Mrs. Stevens, wife of George A. Stevens, the proprietor of the hotel entertained at dinner Pof. and Mrs. John Hopkins, Mrs. Hopkins's sister, Miss J.C. Pyrerr, Mrs. J. Williston Wright, and Hubert Stevens.

The sixty-eighth birthday of Dr. J. Williston Wright was made the occasion of a jolly little party at Mrs. Steven's camp Swastika on Thursday.

Among the guests at the Ruisseaumont Hotel tennis has been perhaps the most popular pastime this week, and several interesting matches and one-day tournaments have taken place. Upton Sinclair, who is a great lover of the game and is spending the Summer at one of the camps near the Ruisseaumont, was a a player in one of the best of these.
