NEW OCEAN HOUSE, Swampscott. The social sea- 
son at the New Ocean House is at its height and the 
events for the remainder of the month will keep the 
guests occupied with a continuous round of pleasure. The 
arrivals during the past week outnumbered any previous 
high record and the house will be kept open until the 
2oth of September. The bathing at Whale Beach, direct- 
ly opposite the New Ocean House, has been excellent this 
week, the temperature of the water hovering around the 
seventy degree mark alfost constantly. Each morning 
scores of guests of the New Ocean House find pleasure 
and enjoyment in the bracing effects of the matutinal dip. 
Tennis and clock golf are also among the daily ac- 
tivities of the guests at the New Ocean House. — Since 
the conclusion of the tennis tournament two weeks ago, 
the courts have been attracting many of the devotees of 
this popular sport. 
The fourth formal ball of the season will be held 
Saturday evening, Aug. 14, in the main ball room of the 
New Ocean House. Music wiil be furnished by the 
New Ocean House orchestra, Mr. Frederick L. Mahn, 
director, and the dancing will start at nine o’clock and 
continue until midnight. A buffet supper will be served 
in the tea room at the conclusion of the ball. 
Undoubtedly the biggest event of the season is the 
Costume Party which is planned for the evening of Aug. 
28th. It is to be held in the main ball room of the New 
Ocean House and only those in costume will be permitted 
to dance. Guests of the hotel have already begun pre- 
paring for this event which promises to eclipse any of 
the other big social events so far this season. While the 
affair is not to be a bal masque, prizes, however, will be 
given to the wearers of the prettiest costumes. A fancy 
dress ball was held at the New Ocean House last year 
also and was a decided success. 
The fourth children’s party this season will take 
place next Wednesday afternoon at 3.30 in the main bail 
room of the New Ocean House. As there will be but 
two more of these popular events during the remainder 
of the season it is expected that there will be a large 
number of the. little guests of the hotel and their friends 
from the cottage colony present. At the last party there 
was a good representation in spite of the poor weather. 
Pupils from the school of Mr. J. Jefferson Richards, the 
Back Bay dancing master, will as usual assist in the after- 
noon’s entertainment.
