4 gee MOST enjoyable and brilliant event of the sum- 
mer social season on this bend of the shore was an 
invitation costume party last Monday evening given by 
Mr. and Mrs. Eugene W. Ong to their friends among the 
exclusive summer colony. ‘he affair was held at ‘“The 
Arches,” on Atlantic Avenue, Phillips Beach, the beau- 
tiful summer home of Mrs. Ong’s parents, Mr. and Mrs. 
Andrew W. Preston, and no estate on the whole North 
Shore lends itself more admirably to a social gathering. 
The house was elaborately decorated with flowers—all 
grown on the estate—a circular mound over six feet high 
of magnificent orchids, roses, asters, gloxianas and gladio- 
las occupying the center of the large living room attract- 
ing a great deal of attention, and in fact, flowers were 
everywhere in profusion. The spacious grounds were 
also decorated with various colored Japanese lanterns en- 
closing incandescent lights, which threw a mellow glow 
about the beautiful gardens for which this estate is fam- 
ous. The guests were received in the spacious reception 
hall by Mr. and Mrs. Ong. Each guest was in costume 
and masked, so that it was quite impossible to tell “who 
was who” until the unmasking. Dancing commenced at 
nine o’clock in one of the buildings on the «state which 
for the evening was transformed into a perfect bower of 
beauty by the use of palms, potted plants, ferns and 
decorations of flags and streamers. Some of the cos- 
tumes were very elaborate and others caused no end of 
merriment by their original “get-up.” The unmasking 
took place at eleven o’clock. and there was considerable 
surprise manifested at a number of the party who cer- 
tainly succeeded ‘in admirably disguising their idenity. 
A buffet supper was served in the handsome dining room. 
Previous to the return of the party to the ball room, Mr. 
William A. Paine in a few happy remarks on behalf of 
himself and Mrs, Paine and Mrs. Charlotte Thompson, 
of New Haven, Conn., who had been appointed judges, 
nresented the prize for the best costumed lady to Mrs. 
Franklin E. Gregory, who as Hiawatha was a fine rep- 
resentation of the famous Indian maiden. Mr. Edward 
R. Grabow. who represented Benjamin Disraeli. Earl of 
Beaconsfield, one of England’s best known statesmen, 
was awarded first prize for the best costumed gentle- 
man. The prize for the most original costume for the 
ladies went to Mrs. Harold Cutler, who, like her sister, 
Mrs. Donald Smith, was costumed as Buster Brown, and 
hoth certainly acted the part to perfection. Mr. J. How- 
ard Edwards, who impersonated a Chinese laundryman, 
was awarded first prize for the most original costume 
among the gentlemen. Mrs. Preston was costumed as 
a soubrette with a handsome dress of yellow satin trim- 
med with black, and Mrs. Ong as a French peasant of 
the 16th century. Mr. Ong made his first apearance as
