Alma and Eva and some friends spend a few days in Atlantic City. I hope the weather cooperated!

This is another reminder that there was always lots going on in the lives of the Stokey siblings that we don't hear about.
The house is filled over the Easter season and the prospects for the summer are very good.
Easter Sunday was on April 12 in 1925.
Miss J. M. Love, Philadelphia; Miss Mabel M. Matson, Philadelphia; Miss Alma Stokey, South Hadley, Mass.; Miss Grace Van Doorn, Philadelphia; Miss Eva Evans, Philadelphia
I think that these five were all together. Miss J. M. Love is probably Lily Love. If they were taking the names from the hotel register, maybe Lil's handwriting wasn't terribly legible. Miss Mabel M. Matson must be Mabel Madison Watson. Lil and Mabel are listed in the Non-Family page for Mabel, Lil, Steenie, and Orestes. I don't know who Grace Van Doorn is. And of course Eva was Mrs. Evans, not Miss Evans, but never mind.
The list of guests indicates that this was a nice family hotel. It's fun to make up stories about them.
Mr. and Mrs. W. D. Wright, William Wright Jr., Miss Carolyn Wright, Mrs. Mary G. Hand, Ventnor
I figure Mrs. Mary G. Hand was Mrs. W.D. Wright's mother, and William and Carolyn were two children of beach-playing age. And I think at this point Ventnor had yet not become a famous Monopoly property, although the game of Monopoly had been invented.
A. Eckstrom, St. Paul, Minn
I am certain, based on no evidence whatsoever, that A. must stand for Anton. Not August. Or Adolf.
Mrs. H. M. Shulz, Lodi, N. J.; ... Miss Eleanor Shulz, Lodi, N. J.
How did Harriet and Eleanor get separated? Did they ever find each other?
Miss Emma Gemmel
I love this name. Imagine introducing yourself as Emmagemmel, all one word. Almost as good as being named Abra Cadabra.
Mr. and Mrs. G. D. Combs, Brooklyn
If my name were George David Combs, I would not abbreviate as G.D. Combs.
