NORTH SHORE BREEZE 25 
for the Oceanside Ball 
SOCIETY NOTES 
The weekly band concert at the Essex County Club 
last Wednesday afternoon was quite as successful as its 
many delightful predecessors. The day was ideal, bright 
and sunny, though a little warm, but that only added to 
the enjoyment of the outdoors in the shade of the cano- 
pies. The concert was very well attended.. The fashion 
all along the shore is coming to look upon the concert 
as one of the most delightful hours of the week when 
friends may meet for a few hours’ chat and gaiety, with 
the inspiration of delightful music. Quite a number 
are making it a rule to entertain at these functions and, 
among the hostesses Wednesday, were Mrs. Prescott 
Bigelow, Mrs. R. E. Livingston, Mrs. R. E. Brewer (El- 
sie Carr), who was hostess for a party of ten; Mrs. W. 
S. Roberts, among whose eight guests were noted Mrs. 
Mary R. Overall of St. Louis, Mrs. Gerald A. Bram- 
wel lof New York City, Mrs. Louis L. Hayes, St. Louis 
and Mrs. Ransom George of New York. Others euter- 
taining were Mrs. Robert S. Bradley, J. W. Blodgett 
of Grand Rapids, Mich., and Mrs. A. E. Schoenberger, 
who is a cousin of John Greenough of the East Glouces- 
ter colony. Nearly 100 guests had tea under the tents 
and at the tables on the lawn, making a scene very live- 
ly with color and gaiety.
