On the petition of Charles Head 
and a number of summer residents 
and business men of the town a special 
town meeting has been called for 
Monday evening at the Town hall in 
Manchester to see what action will be 
taken by the town to obtain some re- 
lief from the intolerable noise of the 
siren whistle on Baker’s island. The 
whistle has kept up an almost con- 
tinuous performance for the past two 
weeks and it is sought to have the 
sound in some way modified. There 
is no thought of having the whistle 
done away with altogether, but simply 
to have the sound made less penetrat- 
ing.

partial article on the increase in the 
price of milk.

ject in all its bearings on the farm 
and in the city for years. The ques-
