COMMUNICATION 
To the Editor of the Breeze, 
Dear Su ;— 
Town meeting has come and gone 
and considerable business was done. 
We have accepted electricity for ~ 
street lighting and no doubt it will 
prove satisfactory. At this time it 
appears a good proposition, to get 
the sentiment of the townspeople 
for the extension of gas mains from 
Gloucester for lighting, heating and 
domestic purposes. This movement 
was on last spring and the territory 
was gone over by experts. At this 
time the streets being in a poor con- 
dition, it would be a small matter 
for the mains to be _ installed 
throughout the town, as gas mains 
are only at the depth of two feet 
and are run on the edge of the 
roads and would not interfere with 
other mains and conduits. With a 
large demand for gas, same can be 
delivered here at the same rates as 
in Gloucester. The extension pass- 
ing through Magnolia would give 
the company a large revenue from 
the large estates and hotels. The 
summer residents use it in the eities 
and would install it in their sum- 
mer residences. Everybody would 
use gas for lighting, heating and 
cooking and for all domestie and 
mechanical purposes, if same could 
be delivered at city rates. The 
high price of coal is a factor to be 
considered and for the same cost 
more service can be received for the 
outlay in using gas for all domestic 
purposes. Why not be up to date, 
as all small towns nearby have gas 
service as well as electricty. 
It would be better if the town 
repair its roads this year, as several 
places that have been dug for sew- 
ers, ete., are not down to hard pan 
as yet. Money has been appro- 
priated to renew services and these 
trenches will surely settle during 
the year and will be the cause of 
ruining the best road that could be 
built, as all the water trenches go 
across the highways or part. This 
proposition should appeal to the 
Selectmen and save the amount ap- 
propriated for the roads this year 
and wait till 1916. 
Keep the tax rate down if possi- 
ble; we have tolerated bad roads 
for the last few years, why not try 
another, and when the roads are 
built all excavations of the previ- 
ous year will be settled. 
Thanking you for space in your 
valuable paper, I am, 
John F. Scott. 
Manchester, Mar. 1], 1915.
