SOCIETY NOTES 
Judge William H. Moore of Rock- 
marge, Pride’s Crossing, will send 
on Saturday from New York on the 
Atlantic liner Minnewaska for the 
Olympia Horse Show at London a 
shipment of thirty-five horses made 
up of many national and interna- 
tional winners and_ probably the 
greatest horses in the world. The 
horses will be in charge of George 
Chipehase, stable manager for 
Judge Moore, who, with a staff of 
grooms and attendants, will make 
the trip with the horses, while the 
owner will probably sail the latter 
part of the month or early in June. 
The horses will be on the ocean for 
ten days, arriving in London May 
27. As the show does not begin 
until June 17, this will allow ample 
time for the horses to recover from 
the long voyage and be in fit con- 
dition when the bugle calls the first 
event of the show. On his return 
to America after the 1911 exhibition 
Judge Moore brought back with 
him a total of 25 ribbons and 19 
cups, in addition to cash _ prizes 
amounting to $5,000. The ribbons 
consisted of 21 blues, 14 seconds 
and 4 championships from a total 
entry of 35 classes. According to 
these figures, the Moore entries 
were placed in every event entered. 
This year the prize list is about the 
same, and the American horses will 
be entered in every class in which 
they are eligible, and as there has 
been no noticable depreciation in 
their quality and manners, which 
fact was demonstrated by their 
showing at the first show of the 1912 
season, recently held in Brooklyn, 
they are looked upon to repeat 
the remarkable performance. In 
addition to winning outright last 
year a number of cups, the Moore 
horses are now in _ possession 
of legs on several others, and as the 
rules require only two victories for 
their possession, they will in all 
probability return this season with 
a fine collection. Although there is 
a number of exceedingly fine show 
horses in the string, the bulk of the 
competition will be placed on 
champion Lady Seaton in the single 
classes, and Lady Seaton and Lord 
Seaton in the pairs. There will be 
a few other American exhibitors, in- 
eluding J. Sumner Draper of Bos- 
ton and Alfred G. Vanderbilt. The 
latter will be a contestant in the 
coaching Marathon from Hampton 
Court to the Olympia over a dis- 
tanee of about 11 1-2 miles, the 
event last year being won by Judge 
Moore’s entry. <A leg was also se- 
NORTH SHORE BREEZE 
eured on the Mackay Gold Chal- 
lenge Cup for the four-in-hand class 
by the Moore stable with Lord Sea- 
ton, Lady Seaton, Burgomaster and 
Robin Hood. Judge Moore’s horses 
to make the journey will be as fol- 
lows: Lord Seaton, Lady Seaton,

At the service last Sunday morn- 
ing in Christ Episcopal church, 
IJyde Park, there was dedicated a 
memorial rood sereen, which is 
similar to the modern work in 
church furniture in England. The 
memorial was given by Mrs. Wil- 
liam Dewart, wife of the rector, in 
memory of her brother, William 
Augustus Russell of Boston, who 
died at Manchester-by-the-Sea, June 
7, 1906. The sereen is constructed 
of American oak and is in the style 
of the perpendicular, or 14th and 
15th century architecture. The prin- 
ciple of the design is a heavy beam, 
carrying the cross at its center, sup- 
ported by eight posts. The vine, 
emblematic of the Christian church, 
is the principal decoration. The 
space directly under the beam and 
between the posts, as well as the 
circles in the panels at the base of 
the sereen, are filled with geometri- 
cal tracery. Upon the eross has 
been centered the greater wealth of 
ornament in the clinging vine, the 
symbols of the four evangelists and 
the Agnus Dei inclosed within an- 
other ancient sign of the early 
Christian church, the resina, placed 
at the intersection of the arms. The 
symbolism is further enriched by 
the use of gold and other material.

Miss Bertha Olsen, the _ well 
known Back Bay dressmaker, has 
taken a part of the Rees & Rees 
store at Magnolia, opposite the Col- 
onnade, for the summer. This is 
the first season Miss Olsen has come 
to the. North Shore. The constant 
demand of her many fashionable 
patrons was responsible for her 
taking this step and she will be here 
by the middle of June to take care 
of her patronage, 
Farleyenssis, and was the only com- 
petitor in the class for strawberries 
grown under glass. He showed two 
fine plates of lucious berries. The 
proctor estate also showed a fine 
specimen plan of gardenias.

The delegates to the Red Cross 
International conference were the 
guests of honor last Saturday at 
the White House. President and 
Mrs. Taft received them in the East 
room. Two thousand invitations 
were issued to the funetion, which 
evolved itself into a garden party of 
brilliance and international distine- 
tion. The new Mexican ambassador 
and the new minister from Costa 
Rica each had a propitious presenta- 
tion to the President, who received 
their credentials in the Blue Room 
just before the reception to the Red 
Cross delegates. After the greet- 
ings were exchanged the President 
and Mrs. Taft and their honor 
guests proceeded to the south lawn, 
and the garden party began. They 
stood under one of the great forest 
trees and Colonel Cosby made the 
presentations. All of the foreign 
officers and those of the United 
States Army and Navy were in full 
dress uniforms, the diplomats wear- 
ing many decorations. The foreign 
officers at the capital for the Red 
Cross conference attracted special 
attention, some of them wearing 
gorgeous uniforms.
