Especially .-Squirrel cannot get along
without ball game at least once a
week, so some of the guests at the Inn,
who used to play ball when they were
younger, produced a team to occupy
the time of the islanders, Saturday
afternoon. The frequent errors were
much more enthusiastically received
than the scarce good plays. E. Stan
wood and Ross McClave were the bat
terry for the S. 1. A. A. and E. Hewitt
and Frank Day composed the Inn bat
terry. The score was eleven to two in
Squirrels favor.
The hotel parlors, Friday evening,
were filled to the brim with enthusiasts
to join in the fascinations of whist. 1t
was the initial party of the year at the
Inn and was a grand social success, en-
abling the guests to become better ac-
quainted with one another. When the
game was called and the points had
been counted it was found that Mrs.
Hillman, wife of Lieutenant r. F.
Hillman, Fort Preble, Portland, was
the winner of a choice dolly, the ladies'
first prize. Mrs E. Fl. Tarbell of New
ton, Mass, received a fragrant basket
of Indian make for the ladies' second
prize. Edward S. Hyde of Philadel-
phia, captured the gentlemen's first
prize. large sized photograph of low
