much praise for their attractive holi- 
day window decorations. They 
bring a spirit of Christmas into the 
place which is not generally felt in a 
small town.

town are interested in wireless tele- 
graphy and some have very good in- 
struments. Gordon Northrup and 
Irving Baker are enlarging their 
equipment. Baker’s aerial is the high- 
est in town. 
The new concrete dam shutting off 
Central pond from the sea, in the cen-

It is a most substantial piece of work 
and presents a fine appearance. The 
gate is now located in the front of 
the dam and is operated from the 
street level, which is a great improve- 
ment. Morley, Flatley & Co. were the 
contractors.
