The Essex County club was again 
the scene of a fashionable gathering 
of the North Shore contingent Wed- 
nesday afternoon on the occasion of 
the weekly band concert. The piazzas 
were fairly alive with people, scores of 
whom drove over from Beverly, Bev- 
erly Farms and Magnolia. Luncheon 
parties seem to be quite the vogue. 
Among those who entertained were 
Mire]. eG,’ Pitch: eoixc eM ts

Felton, four, and Mrs. H. H. Brown, 
four. Among Mrs. Hood’s guests

If the weather conditions are pro- 
pitious this ‘afternoon, there is no 
doubt but that the tournament of 
mounted sports to be held at Crescent 
Beach will be one of the smartest 
events of the season at this resort. 
The committee in charge, which is 
headed by Mr. Claude Kilpatrick, 
have arranged an interesting program. 
There is to be potato racing, tilting at 
the ring, riding tandem, ladies driving 
between obstacles, driving tandem, 
jumping, etc. The feature of the 
afternoon, no doubt, will be the gym- 
khara, in which the men will wear 
bright calico skirts, start at signal be- 
fore mounting, mount without use of 
stirrup, go a quarter mile, dismount, 
pick a cigar out of a box on the ground, 
light it, go fifty yards, pick up a bright 
red or green parasol, open and hold it 
above the head, and return to the 
starting point. The judges of the 
events will be C. Kilpatrick, T. B. 
Fergusson and A. Bocquet. 
The Tea House continues to attract

autoists on the shore this summer. 
Last Sunday she had a party of friends 
in her car for a trip over to Newbury- 
port. 
The regular Friday evening dance, 
last week, at the New Magnolia was 
an unusually successful affair. The 
new casino was very prettily decorated ~ 
with branches of green, while the or- 
chestra was hidden behind banks of 
palms. The ladies of the house, as 
well as very many guests from the 
other hotels, both in Magnolia and in 
Gloucester, prettily attired in beautiful 
evening gowns and jewels, presented 
a most pleasing picture to the eye. 
The dance lasted until nearly twelve, 
and during the evening dainty refresh- 
ments were served and a most pleas- 
ant time was enjoyed by all present.
