NORTH SHORE BREEZE 
Annual Roll-Call. 
Baptist Caurca of Manchester Holds Reunion 
and Roll-Call. 
The annual reunion and roll-call of 
the First Baptist church, Manchester, 
held in the vestry of the church Wed- 
nesday evening proved a very pleasant 
occasion. More than 100 were present 
at the well prepared New England 
supper, and ninety-nine responded to 
the roll-call. 
The business meeting was called to 
order by Deacon T. B. Stone, and 
immediately adjourned, Rev. E. H. 
Brewster acting thereafter as master 
of ceremonies. After prayer by the 
pastor, the members and their friends 
gathered around the tables laden with 
cold meats, salads, fruit, etc. A social

hour followed the supper, and then 
Clerk Baker called the rol], each mem- 
ber present responding with verse of 
scripture, and letters were read from 
many of the absent members. 
Among those who responded by 
letter were Rev. and Mrs. D. F. Lam- 
son and Miss Lamson of Boston, Miss 
Jeanette Dixon, Miss Ina _ Baker, 
Harry Giles, Miss Daisy Tilton 
Herron, Miss Eunice Friend, Fred 
Friend, Mrs. Harriet Edwards, Miss 
Esther Kitfield, Miss Rachel Crombie 
and Samuel Crombie. 
Following the roll-call, Rev. Mr. 
Brewster made some very interesting 
remarks, speaking of those who an- 
swered the roll-call with a verse of 
scripture, and of those whose seats 
were vacant because of absence or 
illness, and of the sacredness of the 
occasion. The meeting closed with 
the singing of ‘“ Blessed be the Tie 
that Binds’”’ by the gathering, during 
which all stood and joined hands 
around the entire room. 
Will Myopia Get It? 
It is expected at the annual meeting 
of the U.S. golf association to be held 
a week from yesterday, when the 
matter of deciding on where the ama- 
teur and open tournamemts will be 
played the coming season, that the 
Myopia Hunt club will be selected for 
the open tournament and the big golf 
event of the year will be played on 
the North Shore as a result. 
In commenting on the matter the 
Boston Herald says : 
““The Myopia club will not press 
its claim, nor will it enter into compe- 
tition with any other club, but the 
course at Hamilton is so superior to 
that of any other club which has been 
mentioned for the open championship 
that little doubt can be felt as to the 
action of the national body.» Neither 
the Essex County club at Manchester 
nor the Oakley Country club desires 
the amateur event, and the Country 
club, Brookline, has been asked to 
take the amateur championship of the 
Massachusetts Golf Association. 
“The Myopia club did not desire the 
national amateur competition for sev- 
eral reasons. One is that golf is only 
one of the several sports in which the 
members engage, and as the amateur 
championship runs through an entire 
week, many devotees of other branch- 
es of sport would be inconvenienced. 
Another is that the clubhouse is not 
spacious enough for the entertainment 
of the big field of entrants ina national 
amateur event. The open champion- 
ship runs only two days, and the club 
has learned by experience —it had 
this competition in 1898 and 1901 —
