APE ANN. There were a great many departures on 
“ the holiday, but not overw heimne to the hotel keep- 
ers. Many guests reluctantly took leave of old Cane 
Ann, but the opening of schools necessitates greatly the 
leaving of families. The majority of hotels will close 
on September 20. The final great race of the season, of 
“the Gloucester Yacht club took place on Labor Day and 
wmere were a large number of entries. There wete many 
visitors at the clubhouse on Rocky Neck during the day. 
The ladies* auxiliary to the club held another pop concert 
at the clubhouse on Wednesday evening. General dane- 
img followed the concert with music by the Imperial 
orchestra. . 
Fair skies favored the grand carnival of the Glouces- 
ter Loyal order of Moose, at Stage Fort Park on Labor 
Day. There were thousands of people at the park dur- 
ing the day and evening and the big attractions in the 
way of amusements delighted the public. The fireworks 
display and illumination were particularly fine,

week, on account of the 
BASS ROCKS. A shadow of 
the Bass Rocks colony this 
drowning of Mrs. John Bowler, a cottage resident, at the 
bathing beach on Tuesday noon. Mrs. Bowler, 40 years

ter and os ae of her husband, Mrs. Raymond L. 
Royce and Miss Carolyn Royce of Naples Road, Brook- 
lime. -Suddenly, the 16-year-old A eae of Mrs. Royce 
dashed. from the surf and rushing toward her mother, the 
latter who had now left the water and sat upon the beach, 
shouted that Mrs. Bowler was drowning. Mrs. Royce 
and her daughter rushed to the bath house to summon the 
life guard. Guard Joseph Hickey was very soon on hand 
and with Norman Benson, the two reached the body in 
less than seven minutes. The body was floating out to 
sea. A pulmotor was brought from the bath house and 
Dr. Arthur S. Torrey, Dr. Arthur N. Broughton and Dr. 
A. B. Kelley, the latter two being summer residents at 
Jass Rocks, were hurriedly summoned and for over 
two hours labored to revive the drowned woman. Mr. 
Bowler, who had left his summer estate “High Cliff 
Lodge” at Grape Vine Cove, in the morning for Worces- 
ter, could not be located during the day and he did not 
know of his wife’s death until his return home. Mrs. 
Bowler’s death was pronounced by the city medical ex- 
aminer, to be due to drowning, induced by heart failure.

Captain John W. Symons of the British Royal Naval Re- 
serves, of Stonleigh Manor, near Cardiff, Wales. The 
engagement was announced last February. Mr. Bowler
