| Poe shies favored the committee in charge of the 
Montserrat Country Fair held last Saturday at the 
Montserrat Golf club. Hundreds of people from all parts 
of the North Shore attended the fair and we were in- 
formed by Mr. Robert S. Bradley yesterday afternoon 
that more than $8,000 was netted. The complete re- 
turns have not yet come in, but by the early part of next 
week the full figures will be announced. The fair was 
under the management of Miss Leslie Bradley, and it 
was a pronounced success in every particular. It was 
held for the benefit of the Children’s Island Sanitarium, 
on Lowell’s Island, off Marblehead. 
The fair has been the subject of discussion among 
the North Shore people for several weeks and no end 
of expense has been taken in consideration to make the 
event one of the largest and most successful ever held 
on the North Shore. The grounds were opened to the 
pubhe at 10 in the morning and hundreds of summer rest 
dents were on hand, coming in their automobiles and 
carriages and remaining until evening. 
The club grounds were dotted with booths in charge 
of the young women along the shore who sold fancy 
articles, toys, fruit, cool drinks, ice cream and cake 
and were kept busy every minute of the day. 
One of the most attractive tables at the fair was 
the fancy table in charge of Miss May Burnham, who 
was ably assisted by her sister, Miss Burnham, Mrs. J. 
Appleton Burnham, Mrs. Lester Leland, Mrs. James 
Marsh Jackson and Mrs. F. J. Alley. 
Mrs. Robert 8. Bradley, whose interest and practi- 
cal assistance was largely the foundation of the success 
of the fair, presided over the house-keepers’ table. Mrs.

Bradley was gowned in black and among the many 
beautifully dressed women her distinguished bearing 
was the subject for many a compliment. She was as- 
sisted at her table by Mrs. Reginald 8. Fitz, Mrs. Ed- 
ward J. Holmes, Mrs. Henry E. Russell and her niece, 
Miss Bates, Mrs. E. B. Haven, Mrs. W. B. Thomas, Miss 
Helen Taft, Mrs. David Crocker and Mrs. George Cush- 
ing. 
At one of the tables were articles made by the chil- 
dren at the Children’s Island Sanatarium. Miss Lucy 
Davis of the Sanatarium managed this table. Others 
here were Miss Adelaide Green, Miss Jennie Grace and 
Miss Mary Brown. 
Many beautiful articles were to be found at the 
basket and sachet table. Here Miss Harriet Franks, 
Mrs. Francis Appleton and Mrs. William Rantoul as- 
sisted Mrs. Neal Rantoul. 
Luncheon and afternoon tea were served on the 
wide lawn and the piazza of the club house. Mrs. Ran- 
dolph Tucker received much well-merited praise on the 
excellence of the service and the menu. Mrs. Tucker 
wore a pretty white gown with a wide purple and gold 
girdle. The costume was completed by a striking pur- 
ple hat trimmed with plumes of the same shade. The 
young girls who assisted Mrs. Tucker in serving are al- 
so to be credited with their share of commendation. 
Miss Rosamond Bradley was in charge of the soda 
fountain, which came from Huyler’s. The girls who so 
graciously assisted Miss Bradley in her work were Miss 
Dorothy Ball, Alice De Ford and Miss Grace Stackpole.
