exciting to the onlookers.

spending the balance of the season in

Patrick Conroy - the —‘ Miracle 
Worker,’’ who had promised to 
“prove” his “wonders” and show. the 
people the ‘Knowledge’ at West 
Beach last Sunday afternoon and at 
other places, failed to make his ap- 
pearance, stating as an excuse that 
the people in this vicinity were the 
worst lot of unbelievers in the country. 
Conroy with his numerous flags, a 
child’s toy gun and mysterious papers 
left town the first of the week, claim- 
ing he was bound for New York state 
where he expects better treatment. 
The newly constructed rose garden 
onthe sestatezof aw soeencds ja. L. 
Spaulding, Greenwood avenue, which 
is now just coming: in bloom, is a 
pretty sight. A little later, after the 
completion of the work in hand, such 
as the construction of bridges, sum- 
mer houses, temple, seats, pool, basin, 
steps and balustrades which are most- 
ly of concrete and artificial stone, this 
is certain to be one of the chief beauty 
spots on the North Shore. 
Miss Ida Weir of Arlington is a 
guest of Miss Elsie Preston. 
The Ward 6 present and _ past 
members of the Beverly City Govern- 
ment are looking forward with much 
anticipation to the annual outing which 
this year is to-be held at Crescent 
Park, Providence,R.I. The grounds 
there are large and spacious. River- 
side Park is a few minutes walk from 
Crescent Park. Vanity Fair planned 
after the famous ‘Dreamland” at 
Coney Island, N.Y., is but five min- 
utes ride from the Park, band con- 
certs by three bands and numberless 
other attractions. A genuine Rhode 
Island clam bake is also an important 
featureof the day. The date is Thurs- 
day July 18. . 
The storm of a week ago, togéther 
with unfavorable winds and _ tides, 
brought to West Beach such large 
quantities of seaweed and rubbish 
that it made the place very unsightly 
and somewhat unpleasant. Some 
criticisms were made because it was 
not promptly cleaned up, which of 
course meant quite an item of ex- 
pense, which at the present time the: 
finances of the corporations would not 
permit, but on July 3, in anticipation 
of the place being the mecca of the 
large crowds of people, the Board of 
Directors and the July 4th celebration 
committee got together and with a 
large force of men and teams, before 
night had the beach looking quite 
clean. The matter of beach cleaning 
isa hard proposition to handle, be- 
cause one tide sometimes would bring 
in enough rubbish to cause consider- 
able expense to remove it. 
Mrs. Frank Mitchell and daughters 
Nancy, Frances and Margaret of 
Pawtucket, R.I., were guests of Post- 
master and Mrs. Elmer Standley over 
the Fourth and Miss Margaret Mitch- 
ell will probably spend her summer’s 
vacation here. 
All the Italians, dressed in their 
best, were out on the Fourth, follow- 
ing the various features on the pro- 
gram, and they were a respectable and 
well-behaved lot of men.
