SOCIETY NOTES

was held Tuesday at ‘‘Hetmere,’’ the Beverly summer 
home of Hon. A. Shuman of Boston. The Atlantie Con- 
ference is an organization of men prominent in business 
and professional life in and around Boston. Every 
year there is a reunion and this year, at the invitation 
of Mr. Shuman, the organization and the guests of the 
_members were invited to go to Beverly to celebrate the 
silver jubilee. Just twenty-five years ago, the organiza- 
tion was formed on a trip across the water on board the 
Cnnarder Cephalonia. On that trip several kindred 
spirits met daily and before the ship touched at Liver- 
pcol it was decided to form a permanent organization 
that would live through the years, the members pledging 
each other that they would meet at least annually and 
renew friendships formed on the water. Those present 
at the silver jubilee were William A. Gaston, president 
National Shawmut Bank; Thomas P. Beal, president 
Second National Bank; Francis M. Stanwood, George 
R. White, the Rev. Edward A. Horton, Colonel C. N. 
Wallace, John Shepard of Shepard Norwell Company, 
Colonel William M. Bunting, Hon. H. H. Sprague, chair- 
man of the Metropolitan Water Board; Arthur F. Hs- 
tabrook, Samuel J. Elder, Jerome Jones, Wallace L. 
Pierce of the S. 8. Pierce Company, Hon. George H. Ly- 
mon, former collector of the port of Boston; F. P. Fish, 
chairman of the State Board of Education; S. P. Man- 
dell of C. F. Hovey & Co., General Charles H. Taylor,
