NEW OCEAN HOUSE, Swampscott. The fourth for- 
mal ball at the New Ocean House last Saturday 
evening attracted a large number of guests of the hotel 
and their friends along the North Shore. It was 
oue of the prettiest parties of the season, the new music 
played for the first time at Saturday’s affair meeting witi: 
the heartiest approval of the dancers. The season is at 
its height at the New Ocean House and the management 
has made extensive plans for the entertainment of 
guests during the remainder of the summer months. The 
¢smand for accommodations has been so great that it 
has been positively announced that the hotel will remain 
open until the twentieth of September. This has been 
made necessary tnrough the constantly increasing demand 
for a longer season at this delightful spot along the shore. 
With the anticipation of a late summer and hot days in 
September, the New Ocean House and Swampscott will 
prove to be a pleasurable retreat trom the sultry city. 
Tennis and golf continue to remain popular with the 
guests of the hotel. The courts have never seen so much 
service as this summer, all of them being in use practi- 
celly the entire day. Another attractive social feature 
of the season has been the tea dance, held every afternoon 
in the tango room. Not only are they well patronized by 
the guests of the New Ocean House, but many parties 
from along the cottage colony have been present during 
the past week for the dance hour at 4.30. 
Another big event of the past week at the New 
Ocean House was the children’s party held Wednesday 
a:ternoon in tne main ball room of the hotel. ‘Ihe hostess 
was Mrs. E. R. Grabow, and in arranging the program 
she was assisted by Mr. J. Jefferson Richards, the Back 
Bay dancing master. There were almost one hundred 
liitle ones present and from 3.30 in the afternoon unt:l 
laricheon at five o'clock they frolicked about, dancing and 
playing games. ‘The party was one of the prettiest ever 
seen at the New Ocean House, the individual dancing 
liy several of the younger ones being particularly graceful. 
Dainty favors were given to both the boys and the girls 
in the grand march, 
Arrangements are being completed for the costume 
party to be held in the main ball room, Saturday evening, 
August 28th. None but those in costume will be allowed 
on the floor until after. intermission and for those partic’- 
pating prizes will be awarded by the management. The
