skill upon the tennis court. Miss Harriet is a prime fav- 
orite, both with young and old and her coming to Swamp- 
scott for the summer will be pleasant news to her friends 
there. Mr. and Mrs. Hill, Sr., have leased a house at 
Onset for the summer. 
Mr. and Mrs. George F. Schrafft of Newtonville, 
who last season were at “Peacehaven,” the Bond house 
on Puritan Road, have leased the Farrar home on Puritan 
Lane at Jeffries Point for the summer and are now oc- 
cupying this pretty place, The Schraffts are no new- 
comers to the upper North Shore, having for a number 
of seasons spent the summer months at Clifton and Beach 
Bluff. Mrs. Schrafft, one of the energetic bevy of young 
matrons of Swampscott summer colony, is a_ finished 
equestrienne, and her early morning canter is the beginning 
of her days filled with social activities. She likewise 1s 
no laggard upon the golf course and plays a fine game 
of tennis. 
The Misses Annie A. Arnold and Julia Arnold, and 
Allen Arnold, who have appartments at the Victoria, in 
Boston, during the winter, are again at their summer 
home on Puritan Road, which is their usual custom. 
“Peacehaven,” the Bond home on Puritan Road, is 
once more occupied by its owner, ‘Mrs. Charles H. Bond, 
MARBLEHEAD and the Neck are well launched into 
the summer affairs and the summer colony is busy 
with all that pertains to the spirit of patriotism. Even 
though a few hours may be devoted to the kindly spirit 
of a community luncheon, still the aura of work for our 
boys and men called to their nation’s honor in predomi- 
nant, Mrs. Frederick McQuesten gave a pretty luncheon 
at “Questenmere” on Wednesday and all of the guests— 
covers were laid for twelve—brought with them finger 
work, knitting and the like, to keep up to the trend of 
these troublous times and thus help our soldiers. This 
beautiful spirit pervades the circles of the homes of our 
summer homes as well as the homes of those who remain 
in the city. It is a laudable and truly commendable one 
and is sure to reap a splendid harvest. 
One of; the recent homes to be opened at the Neck 
is that of the David Percivals, which is so ideally situated 
upon the rugged shore of the Neck near the tip. = Grey- 
court” is always the scene of much merriment occasioned 
by the life within, for there are five young people here 
and splendid times they do have. The Percival yacht has 
been lately commissioned and will be used extensively by 
the family. 
At the Corinthian Yacht club the atmosphere is that 
of summer and members are beginning to arrive for the 
season. Arthur P. Tarbell of Brimmer street, Boston, is 
among the first to make the club his summer home, and 
will be comfortably quartered here about the first of July. 
Commodore John B. Fallon, who lately succeeded Com- 
who has not been at Swampscott for several seasons, and 
whose return is a pleasing acquisition to the summer 
colony. 
‘““Mosterne,” the summer home of Dr. and Mrs. Wil- 
liam Jason Mixter will not be occupied by its owners this 
summer for the reason that Dr, Mixter expects to sail 
shortly for France, a member of the medical staff of the 
Massachusetts General Hospital unit. Mrs, Mixter, 
who before her marriage was Miss Dorothy Fay, will, 
with the children, spend part of the summer at “Strode,” 
with Dr. and Mrs. Samuel J. Mixter, parents of Dr. Mix- 
ter, and part of the summer at Wood’s Hole with her 
mother, Mrs. H. H. Fay. 
Dr. and Mrs, Charles Galloupe Mixter are among the 
last at the Galloupe’s Point summer colonists to arrive, 
and have opened “Bowood.” With them are their three 
beautiful children, Charles G., Jr., Anne and Roger 
Conant, not yet two. 
For George A, Brown, who purchased the foriner 
Burnham cottage on Atlantic avenue, Phillips Beach, an 
addition has been made from plans by Little & Brown of 
Boston to give a spacious billiard room in oak finish, hav- 
ing panelled walls and a tiled floor. This and a few minor 
changes have considerably improved the house. 
modore George B. Wheelock, has arrived at the Neck 
with Mrs, Fallon and has opened his house there. Mrs. 
Fallon was formerly Miss Fish of Lynn, and they have an 
interesting young son. 
The first dinner dance at the club will be given on 
July oth with the usual band concert and dinner served 
for the members and their guests. Always have these 
functions proved gala events and this year promises equal 
popularity. The service of the club will be upheld, as in 
the past under the superintendency of Mr. Mullen who 
has been in charge for several years past. 
Not having completely removed themselves from the 
Eastern Yacht club, the Naval Reserves are still making 
the clubhouse their quarters for the portion which has 
not yet taken itself to Bumpkins Island, which will be the 
headquarters for future training. The club will un- 
doubtedly assume its former placidity in a few weeks, 
when its usual summer schedule will be resumed. 
Pittsburgh people to arrive at the Neck for the 
season are Mr. and Mrs. Alfred Howell and family, who 
have leased the Goddard house on Harbor avenue. An- 
other brother, George D. Howell, has taken the Walker 
house on Manly street, The Howells are newcomers to 
the Neck. 
At Marblehead, Mr. and Mrs. Henry C. Stetson of 
Cambridge have rented the Lindsay cottage for the sum- 
mer. The Stetsons are new arrivals at the Marblehead 
shore, never before having spent their summers here.
