Beverly Farms has the name of 
having the finest’ Fourth of July cele- 
bration of any place in this vicinity, 
and this year it has maintained that 
position, for people came from all the 
surrounding towns to take in the 
events and help Beverly Farms people 
enjoy the day. 
there was something moving all 
day; and the night betore, in fact. 
Young America didn’t wait until the 
Fourth, they started the celebration 
well: in advance.,| Well they might, 
for F. W. Varney, the apothecary, 
had laid ina supply of fireworks the 
likes of which had never been seen at 
the Farms before, and the youngsters 
kept him and his corps of clerks busy 
doling out firecrackers. 
The official program started with a 
ball game at Tweed’s field about 9.30 
between the Yannigan’s and the 
Y.M.€.U., which was won by the 
former, 11 to 10... Frank Gaudreau 
captained the former and Jerry 
‘Toomey the latter... Homer Callahan 
pitched a fine game for the Y.M.C.U. 
nine, but was. not very well supported. 
‘lhe Yannigan’s had “Farrmgton of 
Gloucester, who had to retire in tavor 
~ of Nicholas‘ Lawlor before the game 
was halt over. Tne boys’ game was a 
fizzle. 
In the afternoon the scene was 
changed to West beach when the 
sports for the boys and girls and men 
were run Off. 
The feature of the day’s program, 
however, were the horse and pony 
events. Much interest was taken in
