MANCHESTER 
Joseph Clarke acted as one of the 
judges at the Mass. Horticultural society 
exhibition in Boston last Saturday. 
Miss Anna Maslen was the victim of 
a surprise party Tuesday evening, when 
some score of her friends at the High 
school called at her home on Lincoln 
street. It was her 16th birthday. <A 
delightful evening was passed in singing, 
playing games, etc., and during the 
evening Miss Maslen was_ presented 
with a pretty signet ring. Dainty re- 
freshments were served. 
Quite in contrast with the past month 
was January of 1893,—fifteen years ago. 
The Vanchester Cricket for that. date 
records that ““the present cold spell is 
one of the severest on record. The 
river is frozen solid to Glass Head. 
Dea. John Prince who has the records 
for many years says that the winter of 
1873 was the hardest, the thermometer 
going to 28 below zero in January. Mr. 
and Mrs. George Leach walked down 
to Ram island on the ice. Feb. 8, ’61, 
was 23 below.’’ 
John D. Morrison is announcing his 
candidacy for tree warden this week, — 
making the third in the field for this 
position thus far, R. A. Mitchell having 
announced his candidacy several weeks 
ago and the present incumbent, Wm. 
Young, being a candidate for re-election. 
Mr. Morrison’s work along this line is 
well known. He has been until recent- 
ly, manager on the North Shore for J. 
L. Frost & Co., of Arlington, and at 
the present time he is district superin- 
tendent for the state in moth work. ° 
Business Men’s Banquet. 
The committee having charge of the 
banquet of the Business Men’s Asso- 
ciation, to be held next Monday evening, 
Feb. 3rd, have been obliged, on account 
of the demand for tickets, to secure 
Beverly City hall for the occasion. 
Frederic Hudson in his ‘‘ History of 
Journalism’’ referring to the Boston 
Evening Transcript in its youthful days, 
early in the 1800's, says: ““It was 
small, always clean, and was a general 
favorite in the family circle.’’ In the 
last two qualities the Transcript remains 
the same. Inthe former much differ- 
ence may be noted; it has grown from a 
tiny four page sheet to a daily journal of 
from 16 to 52 pages in size. Its reput- 
ation as a clean newspaper of true worth 
continues to grow as well.
