NORTH SHORE BREEZE and Reminder 25 
HE kiddies 
owned the 
Oceanside hotei 
lat Monday 
afternoon. 
Seventy-four 
strong, they 
took possession 
and ruled = su- 
preme from four 
until six. Not 
only the little 
boys and _ girls 
of the hotel, but 
from the cottag- 
ers about Mag- 
nolia and along 
the Shore. It 
was a. grand 
success. Every- 
body entered in- 
to the spirit of 
the .a ffair,— 
young and old 
alike to help the 
youngsters have 
a grand good 
time. That they 
al enjoyed 
themselves may 
be judged from 
the accompaning picture, which was taken as the clos- 
ing number on the afternoon’s program. Little tots 
three years old entered into the games and_ general 
enjoyment of the afternoon as much as did_ their 
older brothers and sisters. The grand march was led by 
Mrs. W. S. Roberts and Miss McMurray, the little folk, 
all dressed in their best bib and tucker marching behind 
in twos and fours as if trained. They passed through all 
the intricacies of the grand march, doing the one-foot 
skip, and other little steps, round in a circle and out again, 
finally forming a complete circle, filling the entire room. 
Miss Flora Voorhees, who had charge of the party, is to 
be congratulated on the splendid success. In addition to 
Mrs. Roberts and Miss McMurray, she was assisted by 
Mrs. Pollack, Miss Waelder and Miss Plunkett. Mr. 
Kanrich and his orchestra played for the grand march and 
the little folk responded beautifully to the music. And 
to be sure, there were some of the new dances! Many 
of the youngsters danced the one-step beautifully. _Fol- 
lowing the grand march and dancing they all entered into 
the game of musical chairs with great merriment and ex- 
citement. They then danced again, this time the old- 
fashioned two-step. The refreshments were served at 
little tables, in one end of the room, with four children at

each table, and 
consisted of 
bread and butter 
sandwiches in 
shape of hearts ; 
ices and plain 
sponge cake, and 
the heavy bever- 
age was water. 
After the re- 
freshments they 
all formed in 
line again for 
another grand 
march. When 
this was finished 
they marched 
in a solid col- 
umn to one con- 
ner of the room 
and had_ their 
pictures taken.

one of the children was so happy and contented. 
At the Oceanside, Magnolia, the latter part of last 
week, scores and scores of new arrivals came in for Aug- 
ust, and a number of the early season guests departed. 
Among the new-comers were Mrs. Thomas B. Coles and 
Miss Coles of New York, who are here for the month, 
being joined by Mr. Coles this week-end; W. H. Bowen, 
Jr., Mrs. Bowen, his mother, and C. R. Bowen of Louis- 
ville, Ky.; Mr. and Mrs. E. P. McMurtry of New York 
for a couple of weeks; Mr. and Mrs. Edward Gurney, 
Miss Gladys Gurney, Mrs. E. B. Ryckman, Miss Rosa- 
mond and Miss Barbara Ryckman and Baird Ryckman 
of Toronto, who will remain through August; Mr. and 
Mrs. Robert M. Bleakie and two sons, John M. and Jo- 
seph, of Tampico, Mex. 
Everybody is looking forward to the costume ball to 
be held at the Oceanside on Saturday night, August 22d, 
as at present arranged, though the plans are not definitely 
settled. The costumes, it is said, will be more unique 
than elaborate and will be a complete surprise to all. Miss 
Flora Voorhees is in charge of the affair. 
Mrs. Isaac G. Lombard of Chicago, who has been 
spending the early summer on the South Shore, has join- 
ed the colony at Magnolia, being registered at the Ocean- 
side for the balance of the season. She is accompanied 
by Mrs. H. E. Haass. Miss Margaret Ellen Haass joined 
the party a few days ago, too.
