of New York, who has been visiting her at the Brown- 
lands. Mrs. Alexander has one of the cottages there 
and has a privite dining room in the maim house where 
Bthe luncheon was served. Green and white formed the 
“eolor scheme. A table cloth of green with a white lace 
“cover made a stunning addition to the table. Among 
the guests was Mrs. 8. Parker Bremer. The Brownland 
guests regret the departure of Miss Coppell for New 
York which took place Tuesday. 
Mrs. A. W. Newell of Lexington and Boston is 
spending a few days at Manchester as the guest of her

NORTH SHORE BREEZE 
No. 33 
SOCIETY NOTES 
Much interest is being taken in the 13th annual 
summer show of the North Shore Horticultural society 
which is to be held next week on Wednesday and Thurs- 
day, from the fact that the entire proceeds of the show 
will be donated to the Beverly Hospital. Mrs. Robert 
C. Winthrop has turned over the large field on her at- 
tractive estate at West Manchester for the use of the 
society, and the large tent will be spread near the main 
highway. The show has usually been held on the Es- 
sex County club grounds. Numbered among the pa- 
tronesses are Mrs. Washington B. Thomas, Mrs. Robert 
S. Bradley, Miss Louisa Loring, Mrs. Gordon Dexter, 
Mrs. William B. Walker, Mrs. Robert D. Evans, Mrs. 
Allan Curtis, Yirs. Philip Dexter, Mrs. Lester Leland, 
Mrs. William Hooper, Mrs. Wallace Goodrich, Mrs. E. 
C. Swift, Mrs. L. C. Hanna, Mrs. W. H. Moore, Mrs. C. 
D. Sias, Mrs. James McMillan, Miss Helen Burnham, 
Mrs. Robert C. Winthrop; Mrs. Dudley L. Pickman and 
Mrs. F. P. Frazier. The show will open Wednesday 
at 2 o’clock and will close Thursday night. The Bev- 
erly Hospital, in the benefit of which the show will be 
held is one of the best managed institutions of this kind 
in the state. Its new buildings at Montserrat, were made 
possible largely through the generosity of North Shore 
people. It is the hospital used by Manchester people 
in most cases. It should warrant the liberal partonage 
of North Shore people in general and Manchesterites 
in particular.

Mrs. A. BE. Grannis at the summer residence of Mr. and

doubles scratch tournament open to members and junior 
members. Entries for both events close next Thursday.
