Endorses Mr. Bell. 
To the Editor of the North Shore Breeze : 
The candidacy of Walter R. Bell 
for the offlce of Town Clerk is being 
vigorously promoted by many citizens, 
who, besides sharing the enthusiasm 
that the seasoned youth of Mr. Bell 
begets, believe in his ability to adorn 
the office with pleasing adequacy. 
Mr. Bellis 27 years of age, and no 
comparatively young man is so de- 
servedly popular as he. Being edu- 
cated in Manchester and graduated 
from her schools, he may fittingly be 
looked upon as a product of our 
home institutions. Unlike many of 
our young men who seek other and 
larger fields as soon as they attain 
majority, he remained in Manchester 
and became a partner in the business 
of Frank W. Bell & Son. He has 
served the town as town auditor with 
peculiar acceptance for three years. 
I believe Mr. Bell would bring to 
the office of the clerkship the fidelity 
to detail and integrity of judgment 
which have already marked him as a 
man of promise. He would bring new 
blood and an intuitive faculty for 
things which would be for the best 
interests of the town, and with all the 
rest he would bring his characteristic 
loyalty to Manchester and things 
American, which Mr. Bell’s closest 
friends consider his chief charm. 
IMPARTIALIST. 
Manchester, March 2, 1905. 
Endorses Mr. Jewett. 
To the Editor of the North Shore Breeze : 
As our papers are always open to 
discussion of matters of a public inter- 
est, I take this opportunity of saying 
through your paper a few words, en- 
dorsing the re-election of Alfred S. 
Jewett to the office of Town Clerk. 
The conscientious voters of Man- 
chester, I am sure, are unanimous in 
their opinion that the town would not 
be bettering itself this year in elect- 
ing a man to the office of Town 
Clerk other than the one now serving 
us. Unlike other offices in the town, 
I am of the opinion that we can ill 
afford to make a change in the office 
of Town Clerk more often than we 
have to. Mr. Jewett has served the 
town faithfully for almost a score of 
years, and the experience which he 
has gained makes him too valuable a 
man to lose. Not that I am opposed 
to the other candidate for this office ; 
but I am confident the voters of this 
town will see the wisdom of supporting 
a man with Mr. Jewett’s experience 
in preference to one who is practically 
inexperienced in the work of this office. 
Voters, use your keenest judgment at 
the polls, Monday !

NORTH SHORE BREEZE 
A New Town Hall. 
To the Editor of the North Shore Breeze: 
I see by the Town Report that the 
school committee asks for a new 
school house this year. It seems to 
me that, as the town is sadly in need 
of a new town hall to accommodate 
the increased requirements, it would 
be better for the town to first get a 
new town hall and then remodel the 
old building for the requirements of 
the school department. 
Fellow citizens, think it over ! 
GARDEZ BIEN.

Mother Love, 
BY GRACE M. BROWN. 
I kneel at your feet, 
My tiny queen, 
So dimpled and pink and dear, 
And I know that all earth is purified 
Because of their impress here. 
I gaze in your eyes, 
My dearie love, 
Those eyes of brilliant blue, 
And I know that the angels 
In worlds above 
Must envy their heavenly hue. 
I hold you close, 
My treasure child, 
With a passionate, conscious power, 
And I know that the joy 
Of heaven and earth 
Is mine this holy hour. 
I love you, sweetheart, 
My dainty one, 
With a love beyond compare, 
And I khow that all life 
is glorified 
Because of my mother prayer. 
New Church for Manchester. 
Active steps are being taken toward 
hastening the matter of a new Cath- 
olic church for Manchester. Several 
sites are in view but none has yet 
been secured. 
‘“We will have a new church by 
October,” said Reve Fr. jJohnagekk 
Downey, in an interview with the 
BREEZE man in Manchester, Thurs- 
day. ‘I haven’t my land yet, nor the 
money to build a church, but we will 
have a new church by October.”’ 
Fr. Downey said he was in Man- 
chester that morning looking around, 
but that he did not have any spot in 
particular in mind as a site for the 
new church, but he felt sure some- 
thing would soon turn up which would 
open a way for definite action. 
While in Boston Fr. Downey made 
a proud record for himself in the line 
of raising money for charitable work, 
so -when he starts to build a new 
church in Manchester it is an assured 
fact, almost, the church will come. 
BEVERLY FARMS.

Gloucester the past few days, a guest 
of relatives. 
The hook and ladder truck was put 
back into operation at the engine 
house again this week, the snow 
slowly melting and causing quick pro- 
egress on runners difficult. 
The members of the Masons’ Union
