NORTH SHORE BREEZE 
VOL. Ix 
MANCHESTER, MASS., FRIDAY, AUGUST 25, 1911. 
NO.34 
SOCIETY NOTES. 
Congress has adjourned and we are pleased to 
have President Taft with us again. The North Shore 
was made for the best people in the country, especially 
the President and his large family of senators, repre- 
sentatives, chief justices, diplomats, and the like, and it 
seemed too bad that the President had to miss the 
greater part of the summer here, with only occasional 
week-end visits to his family. He arrived in Beverly 
carly Thursday and it is expected he will remain here 
row until September 17th, when he starts on his long 
western trip which will last well into October. Numer- 
ous informal functions, such as dinners, luncheons, etc., 
will be given in the President’s honor during his stay 
here the next four weeks.
