APE ANN. During the past week hundreds of tour- 
ing parties have made their way to Cape Ann to view 
the battleships at anchor in Rockport and Gloucester har- 
bors. As a consequence of the fleets’ visit to this section 
the hotels along the Shore have enjoyed an increased 
business, extra accommodations having been secured, din- 
ner and card parties having been arranged for, while the 
rnerchants s‘rile because of their liberal share of patron- 
age, both from. visitors and the large number of sailors. 
The citizens of Gloucester and Rockport have shown 
every courtesy to the officers and crews of the visiting 
ships and the latter in return have contributed liberally to 
the pleasures of the public, in the way of band concerts on 
shore and the admitting of the people to visit the fighting 
crafts of our navy. 
The out-door pageant “Endymion,” from the Greek 
mythology, held on the fine grounds of the Addison Gil- 
bert Hospital on Thursday afternoon and evening of last 
week, was a successful and picturesque affair, largely at- 
tended by summer residents and townspeople. The na- 
tural out-door setting with cedar trees and the hills be- 
yond proved very delightful and appropriate. The sun- 
light at the afternoon performance and the glorious moon- 
light at the night pageant gave added effect for the suc- 
cess of the play. The pageant was staged and produced 
under the direction of Miss Sally Shute of Gloucester, to 
whom much credit is due. Miss Sally Steele assumed 
the role of Endymion and Miss Rose Londergon the part 
of Phrynia. Hester Cunningham as Herves was a fav- 
orite with the audience. The solo dances by Miss Amelia 
Gaffney of Gloucester and Misses Madeline Coy and 
Melba Proctor of the Eastern Point summer colony, the 
latter two, pupils of Lilla Viles Wyman of Boston, were 
very favorably commented upon. The groups of dances, 
the Dryads, Naiads and Oreads were all very pleasing. 
Sewalls’ orchestra rendered some very delightful music. 
H. Walter Peirce had charge of the costuming and the 
evening lighting was by E. L. Munger, superintendent of 
the Gloucester Electric Company. Three refreshment 
booths containing ice-cream, punch, peanuts, cake and 
candy were well patronized. The pageant was held under 
the auspices of the Nurses’ Alumnae Association for a 
fund for a maternity ward in the Addison Gilbert Hos- 
pital. ‘There was a long list of patronesses including 
(Gloucester matrons, leaders in church and fraternity work,

(;LOUCESTER DAY for yachtsmen, for the Massachu- 
setts Yacht Racing Union championships, will be a ga‘a 
event on August 9. All members of the Gloucester 
Yacht club are planning to make the race this year of 
particular interest in the history of the association. The 
race will be started at 10 o’clock in the morning, so that 
advantage may be taken of the morning wind and also 
the yachts may proceed the same day to Marblehead for ~ 
the opening of the mid-summer week on Tuesday. Ralph 
ub, Dundas of New York, a summer resident of Bass 
Rocks and a yachting enthusiast, has given the club $250 
to be used for trophies in the race. Owing to the Union 
Squadron run from Bass Point the previous day, a large 
number of yachtsmen are expected here, so ex-Commo- 
dore “Ben” Colby has chartered a schooner yacht for the 
day, on which to entertain the visiting yachtsmen.

“War and Weapons” which was given at the State Arm- 
ory last week, before an audience of over 500 people at

the purchasing of an ambulance for the A‘nerican Hos- 
pital Ambulance Corps in France. ‘The lecturer of the - 
evening was introduced by Mayor C. H. Barrett, the lat- 
ter who also gave praise to Hon. A. P. Andrew of Fast- 
em Point, East Gloucester, who is making noble Sacra 
fice and giving valuable service in the American hospital 
relief work on the French firing line. .
