served with ice cream, fruits, cake and cooling drinks. 
The management of the Thorwald makes it a point every 
season to have the annual ball a great success and a real 
pleasure to the guests and their friends from the Bass 
Rocks cottages and from along the Shore. This year 
the ball was a notable affair, a distinct pleasure in every 
detail. 
Last Friday afternoon Mrs. Joseph O. Procter, Jr., 
and Mrs. Max Talbot, both of Boston, Bass Rocks 
cottagers, gave a bridge of 13 tables, followed by tea at 
the Bass Rocks Golf clubhouse. 
The tea given at the Golf clubhouse last Saturday 
afternoon was attended by 200 people, the affair being 
the regular social tea of the club members. 
The Bass Rocks Golf clubhouse was the scene of a 
brilliant gathering last Friday evening, when an evening 
of mirth and melody was given by Wilford Russel of 
London, England. The function was held in behalf of 
the Permanent Blind War Relief fund of the Allies. 
Mr. Russel gave a splendid program of musical numbers 
and readings and at the close of every selection he was 
greeted with enthusiastic applause. The list of patronesses 
for this event included: Mrs. Butler Ames, Mrs. Oakes 
Ames, Mrs. A. Felton Bent. Mrs. W. B. Campbell, Mrs. 
John Clay, Mrs. William H. Coolidge, Mrs. Guy Cun- 
ningham, Mrs. E. B. Currier, Mrs. James C. Farrell, Mrs.

tableaux illustrating the famous poems of James Whit- 
comb Riley, together with the reading of poems, pleased 
a large and appreciative audience. Mrs. Ovid Butler 
Jameson of Indianapolis and Mrs. Harry Primrose of 
Baltimore arranged this delightful entertainment, the pro- 
ceeds of which were given to the Gloucester Fishermen’s 
institute. Col. J. H. Manning of Albany, N. Y., editor 
of note and collector of letters of the great American 
statesmen, paid a fine tribute to Mr. Riley and read, 
“He Is Just Away.” “Good-bye, Jim’ was read by Ralph 
Small, the dramatist, and illustrated by Graham Sargent 
of Philadelphia. Notably fine in the tableaux were Miss 
Virginia Longstreth, a St. Louis beauty, who was “TIlleo 
Legardi,” and the artist painting her picture, Howard 
McDuffy of Boston; Miss Mary Jane Thomson, a Texas 
belle, as “The Old Fashioned Rose;”’ the beautiful Mrs. 
George Thomas Murphy as “The Princess of the Sun- 
set ;” Mrs. Frederick Campbell of St. Louis, noted for her 
loveliness and greatly admired in the St. Louis suffrage 
pageant, as the “Princess of the Snowdrift-and Silver 
Clouds ;” Miss Julia McKenney of Albany, radiant as 
the “Star of the Night,” from “The Last Idyl of the 
King ;” “Yulalie,” the first poem written by Mr. Riley, 
was cleverly acted by Mrs. Edward D. Parsons. “Seven- 
teen” was the last book read and talked of by Mr. Riley, 
and because of the great friendship between the poet 
and the author, three scenes from Booth Tarkington’s 
“Seventeen” and two from “Penrod” were presented, be- 
ing a prominent part of the evening’s program. William 
Sylvester Baxter appeared with Miss Helen Wilkinson 
as “Miss Pratt” and “Penrod” was played by Booth 
Tarkington Jameson, the author’s nephew, who is said 
to be the original “Penrod.” The number of rose- 
crowned children in “The Book of Joyous Children” made 
a charming picture. Mrs. Jameson, sister of Booth
