NORTH SHORE BREEZE 
Society Notes. 
There has been no smarter function 
on the shore this summer than the 
dancing party given by Mr. and Mrs. 
Walter Mitchell at their Manchester 
Cove residence last night. There were 
about 70 dancers, including members 
of the summer colony from all along 
the shore. A pretty group of girls 
included Miss Naneen Mitchell, Miss 
Sue Thayer, Miss Dorothy Quincy 
and Miss Bigelow, who are to be Miss 
Head’s bridesmaids Monday. 
Mrs. Andrew Carnegie, 2d, Miss 
Mitchell’s aunt, gave an informal din- 
ner for these young ladies previous to 
the dance, at which covers were placed 
for ten. 
Mr. and Mrs. Chas. Head and their 
daughters arrived at Manchester this 
morning, and everything is being ar- 
ranged for the wedding of Miss Mary 
Head and Mr. W. A. Russell Monday 
noon at the little church on Smith’s 
Point. Few invitations have been sent 
out for the ceremony, but about 500 
invitations have been sent out for the 
reception, which follows at the Head 
estate. Two large tents have been 
placed on the lawn in front of the 
house, and here, if the weather does 
not interfere, will be served the wed- 
ding breakfast. A special train leaves 
Boston before noon. Miss Margaret 
Head will be the maid of honor, of 
course, and her fiance, Philip Stock- 
ton, will be the best man.

ONE OF THE BEST 
THE NEW ENGLAND MUTUAL LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY OF BOSTON, MAS- 
SACHUSETTS, is a company of magnificent strength; 
it is a company whose record of 
over SIXTY YEARS is a large part of all that is beneficent and honorable in the history 
of life insurance. 
Hon. FREDERICK L. CUTTING, Insurance Commissioner, in his recent annual report 
just issued, in speaking of the NEW ENGLAND MUTUAL and two other companies, says: 
‘{These are all old and well-seasoned companies, the youngest being several years past 
its golden anniversary. 
They are not ‘big’ companies according to modern notions of 
bigness, but are growing normally and are managed by conservative men.’’ 
Of the three companies that the Commissioner so highly commends, the NEW ENG- 
LAND MUTUAL is considerably the oldest. It is a Boston company, and has been man- 
aged and conducted by such Boston men as have had much to do with the development 
of the city during the two generations that have passed. The NEW ENGLAND MUTUAL 
is practically a Savings Bank Life Insurance Company. . 
‘‘But, nevertheless, there are companies which have been satisfied with moderate 
growth on a permanent basis. There are officers who know that size doesn’t necessarily 
indicate strength, that a small company may be relatively stronger than a larger one, 
that it may do better year after year by its policy-holders, and, knowing these things, 
have to be content with a moderate pace. People are not going to cease to buy life in- 
surance, but the wiser ones are going to exercise more care in choosing the company and 
selecting the policy.’’— Commissioner Cutting. 
We sincerely recommend the NEW ENGLAND LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY to the 
good people of the North Shore. IT HAS NO SUPERIOR.
