SOCIETY.” Hunting on North Shore Engages Social Colonies Myopia Club Meets Are mats Plan to Remain ix_x Bay State for Some Time Longer. BEVERLY, Mass.,, September 10.— Arrival of the hunting season at the Myopia Hunt Club is always of in- terest, for it marks the coming of gay days in the North Shore colonies. ‘The meets of the Myopia hounds are ‘well planned and the trail is laid through flelds where a wonderful view may be had of the chase by ‘those who follow along in motor cars and are able to be in at the “kill" when the fox is run to cover. The ‘Washington colonists on the North Shore enjoyed the annual Myopla Hunt Club Horre Show, the thirty- first, which brought one of the largest galleries in the history of these Labor day events, more than 10,000 watch- ing the hunters put through their paces over the rails and walls set up on the broad polo flelds at Hamilton. One interesting feature to many Washington colonists was the family class, where the hunting set sport was shown in father, mother and young folks, all mounted, appearing in family groups for the blue rib- bons. Mr., and Mrs. Frederick Ayer and their threa children carried off the honors. The prized Masters’ Chal- lenge Cup was won by Gray Bess, owned by the Hyopia Hunt Club, with Maj. James W. Appleton, master of the Myopia hounds, up. There have been plenty of attractions on the sport card this week, with the junior tennis opening at the Essex County Club, especially popular with the young folks in the diplonfatic set. Perhaps the largest of the indoor af- fairs of the week was the gala per- formance at Stillington Hall, Fresh Water Cove, Gloucester, sponsored by Sir Esme Howard, the British Am- bassador, and Lady Isabella Howard, who are spending the Summer at Beach Lawn, the embassy at Man- chester, and given for the benefit of the Shakespeare Memorial Theater Foundation. There was a notable at- tendance, including many Washing- ton folk, and the program, which in- cluded the presentation of the opera “Pagliacci” by the American Opera Co. and the garden scene from “Ro- meo and Juliet” by Miss Ethel Barry- more, a Washington favorite, and Ronald Peters, was splendidly re- oeived. An interesting feature of the performance was the singing of “The Star Spangled Banner” and “God Bave the King” by the chorus from the American Opera Co., which is to be heard in Washington during the Winter season. There have been wvery few departures in the colony as yet, although many in the hotel up are planning to return to the pital within & week or so. Cottage Colony Remains. The Washington cottage colony, Jarger than ever this season, will be on the North Shore until well into September, and most of the diplomatic folks will spend much of the month here, although the return of President Coolidge to Washington for the sea- son usually. marks the close of the vacation season for many of the dip- Keenly Followed—Diplo- after a visit with Mr. Winthrop's sis- ter, Mme. van Royen, wite of the Min- ister from the Netherlands, at the Sunset Hill Cottage at Beverly Cove. The Count and Countess Moltke, who were at the Netherlands legation ear- lier in the season for a visit with Mme. van Royen, have sailed for their home in Copenhagen, Denmark. Showing a splendid spirit of co-op- eration, North Shore colonists were much in evidence at the gala perform- ances put on by the American Opera Company and other well known art- ists at Stillington Hall on Thursday evening for the benefit of the Shakes- peare Memorial Theater Foundation. As a result of the success of the affair thete will be a notable sum to add to the foundation, which will rebuild the memorial theater at Stratford-on- Avon. There was a representative group of colonists as patronesses, in- cluding Mme. J. H. van Royen, wife of the Minister of the Netherlands, summering at Baverly Cove; Mrs. Wil- liam Phillips, wife of the new Ameri- can Minister to Canada, who is spend- ing the Summer at Highover, the Phil- lips place at North Beverly; Mrs. Joseph Leiter, Mrs. Boylston A. Beal, Mrs, Walter D. Denegre, Mrs. George von L. Meyer, Mrs, Godfrey Lowell Cabot, Mrs. Isaac T. Mann, Mrs. Rus- sell Codman and others well known in Washington soclety. Opera in English, For the first part of the program the opera “Pagliacel” was put on in Eng- lish with Vladimir Rosing in the lead- ing role. Miss Ethel Barrymore and Ronald Peters presented the balcony scene from Romeo there were other enjoyable offerings. Frank St. Leger of the Chicago Opera Company directed. There were a num- ber of dinner parties which served as a prelude to the happy event. Irs, Joseph Leiter continues to be one of the busiest as well as one of the most hospitable of North Shore hos- tesses. During the Summer, Edge- water house, the Lieter Summer home in the West Beach district at Beverly Farms, has been the scene of much entertaining, a succession of lunch- eons, dinner and supper parties. Mrs, Leiter this season has given several supper parties which seem to be quite the vogue, and her dance given before Labor day was one of the prettiest of the early September gaieties. The Leiters, as usual, will be at Beverly Farms until well into the Autumn. Late Season Visit. Mrs. Churchill Owen (Alice Mann) has been on the North Shore, coming on from Denver for a late season visit with her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Isaac T. Mann of Washington, at their Coolidge Point home in the Manches- ter colony.

Mrs. Owen will take to Denver with her her young son, James Churchill Owen, jr., who has been with his grandparents for the latter part of the Summer. Many pleasant things are being lomats.
