NORTH SHORE BREEZE 
Society Notes 
An attraction of unusual interest to 
North Shore society will be the pas- 
toral performance of ‘‘As you like it,” 
which is to be given August 3 in the 
woods east of the back avenue of the 
Essex County club, by Martin 
Sabine’s company. A large rustic 
theatre is being built specially for this 
occasion and will surpass anything of 
the sort previously attempted on the 
shore. All the seats for the perform- 
ance will be reserved, the admission 
being $2.50. 
Prof. Louis Allard of Paris, in- 
structor in French at Harvard Uni- 
versity, and who is spending the sum- 
mer at, Brownland cottages, gave the 
first in a series of five readings at the 
summer home of Mrs. S. V. R. 
Crosby, West Manchester, Wednes- 
day morning. Next Wednesday he 
will be at Mrs. John L. Thorndike’s, 
and on the following Wednesday 
mornings he will be at Mrs. Harry 
Pratt McKean’s, Mrs. William Endi- 
cott, jr.’s, andat Mrs. R. S. Bradley’s. 
The Gen. Wm. F. Drapers of Hope- 
dale arrived at Manchester this week, 
where they are occupying the Field 
cottage on Smith’s Point again. 
One of the prominent social events 
of the week was the bridge tourna- 
ment given at “Glass Head,” the sum- 
mer home of Mrs. E. S. Grew at 
West Manchester, in aid of the 
Sunnyside Day Nursery of Boston, 
Thursday afternoon. Quite a num- 
ber of prominent North Shore resi- 
dents were present despite the un- 
pleasant weather, and the affair was a 
success socially as well as financially. 
At the close of play tea was served. 
Mr. and Mrs. D. H. Gordon and 
family and Mrs John I. Lowell of 
Baltimore are registered at the Ocean- 
side for an extended stay. 
The Sunday evening orchestral con- 
certs at the New Magnolia are very 
popular with the guests and are ofa 
very high order of excellence. An

The presence of Mrs. William E.

completion of his new stable off Mag- 
nolia avenue, one of the finest and 
best equipped establishments to be 
found at any watering place on the 
coast. Mr. Coulter has some excellent 
riding and driving horses, and the de- 
served increase in patronage from year 
to year speaks louder than any words 
the success which has come to him. 
Mr. Coulter is a skillful horseman and 
has ridden many prize winners at 
various shows. He is an equally 
skillful and careful instructor of others. 
The classes for children are especially 
popular because of the care used in 
choosing safe mounts for them, and 
in taking pains with every detail essen- 
tial to good horsemanship. 
MANCHESTER 
A diver has been at work at the 
draw-bridge the past week, removing 
stones from the channel under and 
about the bridge. 
It now appears that the bonafide quill 
with which Governor Guild 8signed the - 
bill for dredging Manchester harbor is 
after all in the possession of Town Treas. 
Stanley. We stated this two weeks ago, 
and last week we told how Senator Shaw 
had brought what supposed to be the real 
quill to the selectmen. Mr. Stanley has 
the following letter which bears him out 
in his contention: 
June 25, 1907. 
Dear Sir: . 
I beg to enclose you, in accordance 
with our telephone conversation this 
morning, the pen with which the Gover- 
nor signed the Resolve entitled ““Resolve 
to provide for dredging Manchester Har- 
bor.’’ 
Keith’s Theatre 
One of the best bills ever given at 
Keith’s during asummer season will hold 
the boards next week. Keller and Paul’s 
spectacular production, ‘In Morocco,’’ 
is very much of a novelty. A troupe of 
Moorish dancing girls and acrobats, to- 
gether with a platoon of Zouaves make 
up the company. Bessie Wynn, who 
made a great hit in “‘Babes in Toyland’’ 
is to make her first Boston appearance in 
vaudeville. One of the big events will be 
the appearance of Tom Nawn and com- 
pany ‘Pat and the Genii’’ is the sketch 
to be presented. Lawrence Crane, the 
Irish magician, will show several new il- 
usions, with ‘“Cremation’’ as his strong- 
est feature. Mlle. Martha does some 
wonderful work on the trapeze and slack 
rope. Plantation pastimes in the shape 
of songs and dances will be shown by the 
Dixie Serenaders. Sam Williams, the 
Grace Tempest Trio of singers and danc- 
ers; Archer and Crocker, the Siddon 
‘ Brothers, Hamilton and Howlett, Harry 
Burgoyne, and the Kinetograph will 
complete the program.
