Washington Residents Take Active Part in Events on North Shore Little Theater Filled Five Nights for Play by Adelaide Chatfield Taylor. BEVERLY, Mass., August 27. With the North Shore season swiftly swinging toward its apex, Washington colonists are finding the happiest days of the season, with alluring offerings making delightful the day and evening hours and the time flit by almost too quickly. For five evenings this week, colonists filled the little theater at Stillington hall in Gloucester for the presentation of a new play, written by Mrs. Hendricks Hallet Whitman (Adelaide Chatfield Taylor) of the North Beverly colony and well known in Washington. A capable cast gave an enjoyable performance. The stage settings were especially effective and the lighting excellent through the gift of a new equipment by Mr. and Mrs. Joseph of Washington, who are spending their summer at Edgewater House at Beverly Farms. Art exhibitions in the colonies continued to prove of interest and on the social side the annual Fakers’ ball given by the Gloucester Society of Artists last evening was one of the bright affairs of the week. Flower shows came into their own this week with exhibitions at Gloucester, Swampscott and Manchester and the glories of the North Shore gardens were seen at their best. Many Washingtonians Present. The Washington colony on the North Shore was well represented at Stillington Hall Tuesday evening and again through the week for the presentation of “Fool's Paradise," a play written by Mrs. Whitman. It was given its first presentation at Stillington Hall and met with much favor. Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Leiter, Mr. and Mrs. Isaac T. Mann, Mrs. Godfrey L. Cabot, Mr. and Mrs. Walter D. Denegre, and Mr. and Mrs. John Hays Hammond were among those who enjoyed its presentation. Mrs. T. Jefferson Coolidge is opening the music room at her beautiful home at Coolidge’s Point at Manchester Tuesday afternoon for an illustrated talk on "The Glory and Beauty of the Cathedral in Washington" by Rev. Dr. Arthur Rudd, canon of the Cathedral. Many of the colonists along the North Shore are interested in this wonderful edifice and the lecture is sponsored by a notable group of Summer folk from many of the principal cities in the United States now summering on the North Shore. With Baron Ago Maltzan, the Ambassador of Germany, spending the Summer in Berlin, much entertaining is being done by Herr O. O. Kiep, the charge d’affaires of Germany, and his charming wife. There are notable representatives of the government who are visiting America, and naturally they pay their respects at the embassy, where they are most hospitably received and are shown the days of the North Shore in Summer time. Frau Else Alves, mother of Frau Kiep, who has been in Germany for most of the season, is now with her daughter at the embassy, the Stevens cottage at Manchester, and several pretty and informal affairs have been given in her honor. Jardine Enjoys Golf. The Secretary of Agriculture and Mrs. William M. Jardine have been enjoying the glories of the late August season on the North Shore, where they have been visiting Mrs. Jacob Leander Loose of Kansas City at Sea Rocks, her Summer home, in Gloucester. The Secretary has found much to interest him in departmental affairs on the North Shore, and has been given an opportunity to see the fishing at Gloucester, the principal industry of this port, and which shows that men make a business of harvesting from the sea as well as from the land. Mrs. Loose has given several luncheons and dinner parties in honor of her guests. The Secretary has found time to enjoy a few rounds of golf over some of the famous courses on the North Shore and in the Myopia district. He has played with Senator Arthur Capper, a fellow Kansan, who is at Magn. Oolia for his usual late season tarry, and where he is finding the life to his liking. One of the principal activities of the young folk on the North Shore, apart from the good times, is the getting together to help some worthy cause, and here the Boston Children's Hospital is one of the institutions in which particular interest is shown. Today the seventh annual outdoor play for the hospital was given on the estate of Mrs. William Lowell Putnam, at Manchester, and serving as one of the committee of young folk to make it a success was James Pope-Hennessy, son of Col. L. H. R. Pope-Hennessy, military attaché of the British embassy, and Dame Una Pope-Hennessy. Miss Knox on North Shore. Miss Kathleen Knox is on the North Shore for a late August visit with her mother, Mrs. McCook Knox, who has been spending the month at the Ocean side in Magnolia.

Dr. and Mrs. Curtis Lee Hall of Washington have been at Swampscott for a late August stay on the North Shore. Mr. and Mrs. W. G. Bader, Commodore and Mrs. R. O. Crisp and Dr. and Mrs. G. W. Linthinvrie of Washington have been at the Hawthorne at Salem for a late August visit. With the wonderful roads which abound the North and South Shores, there is joy in motor drives to points of interest which dot the coast, and motoring is one of the favorite diversions of the diplomatic set. The Ambassador of Great Britain and have enjoyed many trips to interesting cities and towns along the coast. Monday they motored to Cape Cod, where they visited historic Plymouth and stood on the rock on which the Pilgrims landed three centuries ago. The Minister of the Netherlands and Madame Van Royen find much pleasure in their motor trips along the shore, while the Charge d’Affaires of Germany and Frau Kiep are often seen on the North Shore roads. Members of the embassy and legation staffs are for the most part fond of motoring, and the pleasant mornings and afternoons give opportunity to viewing the seashore and country at its best in late August.
