NORTH SHORE BREEZE and Reminder 39 
EW Ocrean House, SwAmpscorr.—Several hundred 
‘guests of the New Ocean House and their friends 
from along the North Shore attended the second formal 
ball held last Saturday evening in the main ball room of 
the New Ocean House. Not only was the main hotel 
filled to capacity for this big social affair, but the top 
floor of the new $150,000 annex was opened to accommo- 
date the unusually large number of guests seeking reserva- 
tions. The new fireproof addition to the New Ocean 
House has met with instant popularity with the guests, 
the luxurious appointments of the suites offering all that 
may be desired for the comfort of patrons. 
With the opening of the top floor, work is now being 
rapidly pushed to furnish the remaining floors and have 
all the suites ready by the first of August. The reserva- 
tions to date have beén pouring in with a consistency 
which will make it necessary to have every suite ready 
for occupancy by the first of next month. 
With the increased accommodations offered by the 
opening of the Annex, an unusually large number of 
guests were present at Saturday evening’s ball. The affair 
was one of the most brilliant social events of the month 
along the North Shore. ‘The musical numbers included 
the popular melodies, splendidly rendered by the New 
Ocean House orchestra under the direction of Frederick 
L. Mahn of the Boston Symphony. The usual buffet 
supper was served in the Tea Room at the conclusion of 
the dance. 
Sunday evening a special concert was given in the 
ball room of the hotel by the New Ocean House orchestra 
at which Mrs. Martha Atwood Baker of Boston was the 
soloist. More than 100 guests of the hotel were present 
to listen to the delightful program. This feature of the 
Sunday evening concerts is an innovation of the 1916 
season and it is the intention of the management to con- 
New Ocean House, Swampscott 
tinue them throughout the season. At regular intervals a 
soloist of some note will be engaged to assist.
