The Oceanside, Magnolia, is in the flush of its 
summer season. The July guests have departed, those 
for August and September have arrived and, with the 
bustle of the going and coming over, the big hotel has 
again settled down to a round of festivity and pleasure. 
In many respects this is the greatest season in the 
Oceanside’s history. Usually, at this time of year, the 
trend of travel is away from the seashore to the moun- 
tains—but, at Magnolia, exactly the reverse is true. 
Scores of guests are coming from the mountain resorts 
of Vermont, New York and New Hampshire to spend a 
month or six weeks at The Oceanside. This, the larg- 
est summer hotel in all New England, is filled to its 
utmost capacity. The house-count shows more than 
700 guests. Many of them.have reserved their apart- 
ments in the hotel, the Annex or the cottages until late 
September, and there is even an insistent demand for 
accommodations well into October. 
The big event of the coming week is the water- 
sports at Crescent Beach on Tuesday afternoon. This 
will be a revival of the water-carnival of several years 
ago. For several seasons the carnival rivaled the 
horse-show in interest. Then came the motor-car, and 
for the last several years, it has absorbed all interest 
unto itself. Society, however, is beginning to tire even 
of that invigorating recreation and, at Magnolia, the 
smart-set is again looking forward to the carnival with 
all its old-time interest. Martin Flaherty, the manager 
of the show, has arranged for two very interesting 
events wholly unexpected at a water-carnival. One 
will be several burlesque amateur boxing matches and, 
the other, an automobile paradé with all cars decorated. 
In this there is to be lively competition. 
Mrs. John M. Hood, Jr., of Baltimore, who is spend- 
ing the summer at The Oceanside, very graciously offers 
the use of her large touring car to the young ladies of 
the office force for a morning spin along the shore, one 
or two mornings a week. 
Among the long-time guests who have returned to 
the Oceanside for another season is Mrs. John David-
