Beautiful Bar Harbor
BEAUTIFUL BAR HARBOR.
ITS MANIFOLD AATRACTIONS.
"See Naples and die", was the advice of some old-world enthus-
iast. "See Bar Harbor and live, is our advice to those who can. Cer-
tainly the Bay of Naples has a worthy rival in Frenchman's Bay, which
bathes the feet of beautiful Mount Desert, while the scenic charms, if
different from those of the Italian coast, are equally alluring. And
when it comes to invigorating, life-giving air, there is no comparison.
To Bar Harbor men and women who are able to compare the beauty and joy
of America's most delightful summer home with the health and happiness
resorts of the whole globe return in throngs for rest and recreation.
Their
Thxickex decision is unanimous, Bar Harbor gives them all that other places
can and more besides. While one holiday resort is noted for its pictur-
esque scenery, its lakes and mountains, another for its vivacity and
social brilliancy, or for its unspoiled natural charm, and others yet
for their bathing, yachting, golfing, or fishing facilities, or their
admirable hotels, Bar Harbor combines them all. Do you want cheerful
social intercourse? The place is full of it, with club and hotel life,
with gaiety and music, with golf links, swimming pool, tea houses that
one may motor to, and admirable roads for motoring. Do you prefer to be
alone with the 'sounding sea' for your companion, or to commune with
nature face to face? Then stroll along the wonderful shore paths, with
their ever-changing vistas OF white-sailed yachts, blue sky and rocky
islets, or climb the mountains by means of the well-tended pathways ex-
tending across the island for scores of miles; drive or motor along
the Ocean or Corniche roads, obtaining views which equal those of the
world-famous French or Italian Rivieras; or motor swiftly inland across
the Bridge, and range at will up and down the most tex picturesque coast
in America for forty or fifty miles.
