MAGNOLIA. 
The annual fair in aid of the Village 
church is to be held at the Oceanside 
next Wednesday. Mrs. Lycett will 
be in charge. 
Last Sunday evening a particularly 
pleasing song recital was given at the 
New Magnolia by Cecil Fanning of 
Columbus, O. Mr. Fanning has a re- 
markably fine baritone voice, and the 
selections rendered, with the assist- 
ance of Mr. Harry B. Turpin at the 
piano, and Mr. Albart Taylor, solo 
‘cellist, were received with marked 
approval by the many guests of the 
New Magnolia, as well as a great 
many from the surrounding hotels 
and cottages. 
One of the most novel features in 
the hotel business at Magnolia was in- 
troduced by J. E. Priest, manager of 
the Hesperus, on Tuesday evening of 
this week. The dining room tables 
were distributed along the veranda at 
6.30 p.m., after which dinner was 
served, which was highly appreciated 
by the guests and considered out of 
the ordinary hospitality. 
Mrs. James M. Greene and Mr. and 
Mrs. H. Clay Steward of Washing- 
ton have returned for another season 
at the Hesperus. Mr. Greene will 
join the party Monday. 
NORTH SHORE BREEZE 
Exhibition at Crescent Beach, 
More than 2,000 cottagers and 
guestsat the Magnolia hotels thronged 
Crescent beach, Thursday afternoon 
to witness the exhibition by the North 
Shore U.S. life saving crew, which is 
stationed at Dolliver’s neck, near 
Gloucester. The crew was captained 
by Nelson M. King, and the men were 
Carl Dixon, John Olson, Frank Gore, 
Peter Nelson and Albert Sundberg. 
Hans Slade of the Pond Island station 
assisted. 
The exhibition was given under the 
auspices of the Magnolia Water Carni- 
val association. Dr. E. A. Dakin, 
was chairman of the committee hav- 
ing the affair in charge, and with him 
were Richard Kennard of St. Louis, 
Arthur Christopher of St. Louis, A. 
W. Edes of Magnolia and Harold 
Washburn of New York. 
The orchestras from the hotels com- 
bined for a concert of national airs 
preceding the events and provided in- 
cidental music during the exhibiton. 
The good old schooner David Sher- 
man, anchored 200 yards from the 
shore, was the magnetic needle which 
attracted the crowd on shore and the 
objective point of the life saving crew. 
Slade, who was rescued from the 
vessel, and likewise acted the part of 
the drowning subject, was actually 
19 
wrecked off Cape Cod, Dec. 31, 1896, 
and rescued in much the manner by 
the crew stationed at Cahoon’s Hol- 
low.
