On the Annisquam river, the “Barnacle” tea house is 
attracting many visitors. On Tuesday of last week,

of guests from Magnolia, Mrs. Chalifoux, Mrs. J. P.

ROCKPORT. The summer social gaiety at Rockport 
has begun in earnest and now that the hotels are filling 
rapidly many pleasant events are scheduled for the com- 
ing days and weeks. The arrival of the warships in 
Rockport harbor has created no end of interest and en- 
thusiasm and many good times are being planned for the 
remainder of the month, while the ships are in port. 
Thés dansants at the new Rockport Country clubhouse 
are proving very enjoyable affairs on Saturday nights, 
orchestra music being in attendance. The younger so- 
ciety set especially at Land’s End, besides Marmion Way. 
Rockport and Pigeon Cove, is finding the fine clubhouse 
a popular rendez-vous for pleasure. The afternoon teas 
and dansants began Monday, with the fine house orches- 
tra music at The Edward, Pigeon Cove. On Sunday 
there was a waiting list for dinner at The Edward. The 
hotel veranda was crowded with patrons who enjoyed the 
refreshing sea air and the view of the ocean. The scene 
from The Edward while the warships are in Sandy Bay 
Harbor of Refuge, will be an inspiring one, as the fleet 
is anchored in the expanse of blue just off the hostelry. 
Some of the naval officers and their families have secured 
accommodations at The Edward. Turk’s Head Inn and 
Straitsmouth Inn will entertain many of the fleet’s of- 
ficers, families and friends. The dance at the Ocean 
View, Pigeon Cove, on last Thursday evening was a pretty 
event, in which guests and friends from the cottages of

the colony participated. An orchestra rendered music. 
A much anticipated social affair in which summer 
people of the Rockport colonies and people from along 
the North Shore are intersted, is the out-door pageant 
“A Midsummer Masque,” to be presented under the di- 
rection of Virginia Tanner of Boston, for the benefit of 
the L. M. Haskins Hospital, on Wednesday afternoon and 
evening of next week on the hospital grounds. The 
pageant is being held under the auspices of the Woman’s 
Auxiliary to the hospital. Miss Tanner has been most 
successful in her work in Brooklyn and New York, Lex- 
ington and Portland, Me. She has secured dancers from 
the Lexington pageant for the Rockport “Masque” and 
costumes will be under the personal supervision of Miss 
Tanner. <A charming feature of the Lexington pageant 
was the dance “Awakening of Nature,” in which Miss 
Vianna Knowlton and Miss Lucile Coburn, two Radcliffe 
students, Joseph Barker of Technology and William Wil- 
liams of Harvard were performers. Miss Knowlton, who 
is the daughter of Dr. and Mrs. Charles D. Knowlton, 
Rockport summer residents, Miss Coburn and Mr. Bar- 
ker are expected to dance at the local pageant. The other 
performers in the “Masque” will be local talent, includ- 
ing some of the town’s attractive young ladies with sev- 
eral from the summer colony. Solo dances will be pre- 
sented by Miss Tanner at both performances. The light- 
ing effects will be managed by Theodore Browne, who 
conducted all the lighting arrangements for the Lexing- 
ton pageant. Mrs. C. D. Knowlton, who is the chairman 
ef the pageant committee for the Midsummer Masque, 
wrote the libretto for the opera “Dick the Dreamer” 
which was presented twice in the Boston Opera House, 
two years ago, for the benefit of the Frances E. Willard 
Settlement Work in Roxbury. Various booths will be 
laden with fancy articles, cake, candy, ice-cream and a 
tea garden and restaurant will be special features. It is 
expected that one of the battleship’s bands will give a 
concert and general dancing will follow the pageant. Re- 
served seat tickets are placed on sale at the American 
Express Company’s office, Rockport, telephone, 46-4. The 
officers of the L. M. Haskins Hospital Woman’s Aux- 
iliary are: President, Mrs. E. S. Haskins; vice-presidents, 
Mrs. D. C. Babson, Mrs. R. L. Emery, Mrs. John Weth- 
erell; secretary, Miss M. A. Dwyer. The pageant com- 
mittee comprises: Mrs. C. D. Knowlton, chairman; Mrs.
