Annual Labor Day Event Brings 
Out Society. 
Labor Day ushered in the 17th 
annual horse show and gymkhana at 
the Myopia Hunt club, Hamilton. 
The event was made notable by the 
presence of President Taft and suite, 
who were interested and enthusias-

appeared at the show with his fa- 
mous coach and four. He was ac- 
companied by Mrs.-Moore. Another 
noteworthy group was composed of 
the Misses Helen Taft, Alys Meyer, 
Hilda Rice and Miss Delamon of 
New York. Society folk from all the 
North Shore resorts was largely 
represented and the display of 
gowns by the fair sex was superb. 
The show was an all-day affair, 
the first class for Jumpers by junior 
riders being called at ten o’clock in 
the morning. The entry list this 
year was the largest ever received 
at a Myopia show, there being 
sixty-four. A notable trophy con- 
tested for was the Master’s Cup. 
The stars of the show were Miss 
Mary Curtis in the jumping = class 
with Typhoon and 8. P. Mandell, 2d, 
did excellent work upon Aspiration 
and on other horses in several of the 
classes winning ribbons in eight 
events and in several cases two rib-
