NORTH SHORE BREEZE 
MANCHESTER, MASS., FRIDAY, JULY 22, 1910. 
SOCIETY NOTES 
Every Pale for the Binemianee at the Essex Coun- 
ty club next Friday night had been engaged early in the 
week, and many who desired tables have had to be dis- 
appointed. Everything points to a most successful and 
brilliant social affair. The way the twenty tables were 
snapped up and the demand for the tables for the Aug- 
ust dinner-dance emphasizes the occasion for more of 
these functions, and it is likely others will be arranged. 
Among those who have engaged tables for the dinner are 
Judge W. H. Moore of New York and Pride’s Crossing, 
who will have a party of sixteen; Mrs. John C. Kerr of 
Brooklyn, N. Y.; Mrs. C. A. Munn, Mrs. Washington B. 
Thomas, Dr. L. H. Lancashire, Mrs. J. Warren Merrill, 
Mrs. R. F. Greeley, George F. Willett, Mrs. E. C. Fitch, 
Mrs. 8. E. Hutchinson, Mrs. Arthur D. Cook, the Ger- 
man embassy, Samuel Carr, Mr. Kelch of the Brazilian 
embassy, Captain Vassilieff of the Russian embassy, 
Mrs. Wallace Goodrich, Mrs. W. S. Kennard, Mrs. J. B. 
Bagnell and L. C. Hanna.

Polo has been a big attraction for many North Shore 
people this week. Two games were played Monday 
afternoon and two Wednesday afternoon at Myopia. 
Two more will be played Saturday afternoon, one at 
three o’clock for the Hamilton cups between the winners 
of Wednesday match and the Ramblers, and at five 
o’clock a special match, Cooperstown vs. Myopia A.

Regret is felt in Washington and along the North 
Shore over the transfer of Mr. Kroupensky, counselor 
of the Russian Embassy, to a similar official position in 
Vienna. He is now abroad on leave and his successor 
has as yet not been appointed. He has summered on the 
North Shore for several seasons, 
SOCIETY NOTES 
The weekly band concert at the Essex County club 
Wednesday afternoon was the occasion of another bril- 
Fiant gathering of North Shore people. The veranda 
aud lawn in front of the clubhouse was alive with 
smartly gowned matrons and young people. Several 
hundred people were there, cottagers and their guests 
driving and motoring over from Beverly, Pride’s Cross- 
ing, Beverly Farms and Manchester and from Magnolia 
bnd the Gloucester shore. Several informal luncheon 
parties were given at the club previous to the concert 
including one at which Mrs. Ezra C. Fitch was hostess. 
Mrs. Fitch had fourteen at her table. Miss Helen Lanca- 
shire was hostess for another party, there being besides 
her father, half a dozen young people in the party. Mrs. 
William MeMillan of St. Louis was over from Magnolia 
and gave a luncheon for nine.

It has been definitely settled that Mrs. Susan Long- 
worth is not to occupy her cottage at Beverly Cove this 
season, and consequently her son and daughter-in-law, 
Cong. and Mrs. Nicholas Longworth will not come to the 
North Shore unless they pay a visit here later. The 
Longworth cottage is being occupied for the balance of 
the summer by Charles P. Curtis who moved in the first 
of this week. Mr. Curtis is prominent in yachting 
circles along the shore, being the owner of the ‘‘Ellen,’’ 
the winner of last stason’s trophy.

Henry C.Frick maintains at his estate at Pride’s Cross- 
ing one of the largest, as well as one of the finest 
stables to be found along the North Shore. There are 
fourteen horses in the stable. Mr. and Mrs. Frick use 
their horses very little however, preferring motoring to 
driving. Miss Helen Frick is seen on the North Shore 
drives occasionally holding the ribbons over her pet pair 
of dark bay ponies, and sometimes riding on her saddle 
horse. Childs Frick maintains a stable of his own neac 
the Myopia Hunt club. He plays polo and follows the 
hounds occasionally in the autumn.
