NORTH SHORE BREEZE 
THE SUMMER HOTELS 
There are lively doings at all the 
Magnolia hotels these days, but not 
of the sort seen there about a 
month hence. Work is being rushed 
in getting all the houses ready to 
open for guests the middle of this 
month. At all the houses minor 
improvements are in progress, and 
finishing touches are being put on 
everything. 
Manager C. H. Mowry, who has 
made the New Magnolia a_ very 
popular resort in his two years as 
manager, is back for this season and 
will endeavor to make the hotel 
even more popular this year. Mr. 
Mowry has charge of the Hotel 
Titchfield in Port Antonio, Jam., 
winters. ~Frank—lL. -Gastner,.. for 
nine years at the Poland Spring 
house, will be the room clerk, and 
E. A. Milette, for three years front 
clerk at the Hotel Hamilton, Ber- 
muda, will have this post here this 
season. W. A. Gardner, who has 
been with Mr. Mowry, both in Ja- 
maica and at Magnolia, for a num- 
ber of years, will be cashier again 
this season. The hotel opens next 
week, Monday, June 18, with an excep- 
tionally large booking, many of 
whom have taken suites for the en- 
tire season. 
Harry T. Miller, at the Intervale, 
in Intervale, N. H., last year, and 
for several winters at Hampton 
Terrace, South Carolina, will man- 
age the Hesperus House this year. 
Mr. and Mrs. Miller have arrived 
and with a corp of servants are 
putting the house in readiness to 
open on Wednesday, June 20, An 
elevator is being built to be ready 
for use by the opening of the house. 
The 57-room addition which 
Prop. Warren Knowlton is having 
built to the Blynman will not be 
completed for some weeks yet, 
though the hotel will be open week 
after next in all probability. 
Manchester 
The Masconomo hotel at Manches- 
ter was opened last week for the sea- 
son, with Frederick Merrill of Boston 
in charge. This famous hostelry is 
making a specialty this season of ala 
carte dinners, and will be quite the 
center for automobile parties down the 
shore. F. M. Shortall of Boston is 
clerk at the hotel this season. 
Additional Telegraph Service 
Magnolia is to have excellent tele- 
graph and call service this season, 
something the cottage and _ hotel 
guests will be very much interested in, 
as the service at times heretofore has 
not been all that could be desired. 
Through the agency of Frank G. 
Cheever of Manchester, a Postal Tele- 
graph-Cable Co, office will be in- 
stalled this season and will open for 
busineess June 15. The company 
guarantees prompt and _ satisfactory 
service to all parts of the world. Miss 
Bishop from the main office in Boston 
will be the operator in charge of the 
office, which will probably be located 
in the libraty building. 
Work has been started this week 
on the construction of the overhead 
bridge to be built over the railroad 
tracks on the Manchester side of the 
Magnolia station, over which will 
go the road being built through the 
Philip Dexter property in the east- 
erly part of Manchester. H. W. 
Ward of Lowell has the contract 
for the stone work.
