MiD-SUMMER finds the big Oceanside Hotel at Mag- 
nolia with about six hundred .guests, fully a hundred 
more than last year at this time, and also many in excess 
of the year before. It has been a week of departures and 
arrivals. Many have gone with the closing of July ‘o 
other resorts, or to their homes, partly because of pre- 
arranged plans, and partly because their apartments here 
have been let in advance to August guests. August al- 
ways brings a full house, if ever, and the Oceanside is to 
experience full house capacity all through the month, if 
present indications mean anything. It takes about seven 
hundred and fifty to fill the main hotel, its nineteen 
cecttages, and the Annex, which was formerly the Hes- 
perus Hotel. 
Richard M. Elliott of Lowell was at Magnolia over 
the week-end with Charles Wadsworth, 3d. Both young 
men are attending the Harvard summer scliool. 
Miss Rosamond Lancaster of Worcester, who is 
spending the summer at the Oceanside, is one of the best 
dancers at the hotel. She was noticed doing the fox 
trot with Mr. Latscha Tuesday evening at the dance, and 
she surely is a most graceful dancer. She is petit and 
pretty and always dresses nicely. She dances much bet- 
ter than many of the professionals. ‘The fox trot, by 
the way, is far the most popular dance of the summer at 
Everywhere one may see people picking it 
up, and trying to get onto the steps. Lots of the older 
men and women at the Oceanside are trying it and the 
young folk never miss an opportunity to try it, whether 
they are on their way from the dining room, the beach, 
or getting ready to start on a motor trip.
