NORTH SHORE BREEZE 
Vol. X. 
SOCIETY NOTES 
Every straw in the wind indicates that the Magnolia 
Horse-Show, on Crescent Beach next Wednesday after- 
noon, is to be the greatest show of its kind ever held at 
Magnolia. Manager J. Henry Coulter has a most inter- 
esting list of entries, including the finest thoroughbreds 
of nearly all the North Shore’s fashionable stables. It 
is not an exaggeration to say that the event bids well to 
outshine the Newport show. Miss Elizabeth Bigelow, 
Miss Alice Thorndike and Miss Eleanora Sears, long- 
time favorites at the North Shore shows, will all be seen 
in riding and driving events, and there will also be sev- 
eral new stars of whom great things are expected. So- 
cially the show will also have as great, if not greater, 
prestige as in seasons agone. Both at the Essex County 
club, the centre of the smart set’s doings along the 
Shore, avd at the North Shore Grille reservations have 
been made for many delightful dinner-parties to follow 
_ the show, some formal, some informal, but all with a per- 
vading spirit of jollity. Financially, too, the success of 
the show is assured. The seats and boxes, which went 
on sale last Monday night, have gone like hot cakes and, 
while a few choice seats are still to be had, they are at 
a premium. Some seats were even ordered by telegraph 
from Denver. Among those who have already taken 
boxes for parties which they will entertain, are Mr. and 
Mrs. E. D. Speck of Pittsburg; Mrs. H. D. Torrey and 
Miss Stella Ford of Detroit, Mich.; Mr. and Mrs. George 
H. Crocker of Fitchburg; Mr. and Mrs. Gustavus Swift 
of Chicago; Col. and Mrs. William R. Nelson of Kansas 
City, Mo.; Mr. and Mrs. W. S. Roberts of New York; 
Mr. and Mrs. J. N. Burden, New York; Mr. and Mrs. 
William Coolidge, Boston; Mr. and Mrs. H. W. Farnum, 
Chicago; Dr. and Mrs. J. Henry Lancashire, Manchester ; 
Mr. and Mrs. Andrew D. Sheriff, Chicago; Mr. and Mrs. 
George E. Clarke, Brookline; Mr. and Mrs. W. B. Mil- 
ler, Pride’s, and Mr. and Mrs. Prescott Bigelow of Man- 
chester.

SOCIETY NOTES 
The C. Howard Clark, Jrs., are finally settled at 
‘their West Manchester summer home after many en- 
forced changes in their summer plans. Mrs. Clark was 
called back to Devon, where the family has a delightful 
country estate, just outside Philadelphia, because of a 
sudden attack of appendicitis that kept Mrs. John P. 
Hollingworth (Amie H. Clark) back in Devon. Mrs. 
Hollingworth was operated upon and is now recuperat- 
ing. She has Just arrived at West Manchester for a long 
visit. Mr. Clark, too, has not been well this summer. 
The family have heretofore entertained considerably, but 
this year the illness.in the family precludes everything 
of this nature. 
Prof. Otto Kretschmer, formerly chief naval con- 
structor of the German navy, also one of the directors of 
the navy, arrived in Manchester Monday for a short visit 
with his cousin Fraulein Wolters, who is so well known 
along the North Shore as a German teacher and lectur- 
er. Prof. Kretschmer is at present dean of the technical 
university in Berlin. He is considered an authority on 
naval construction and is the originator of the form of 
the modern motor boat. He is the man who first set 
forth the idea of the unsinkable: ship,—the ship within 
a ship—which has in recent years received much atten- 
tion. He is in this country for study. He will later take 
a trip through the United States and Canada.
