MANCHESTER 
Mr and Mrs. W. W. Harding had 
with them over Christmas Mr. and Mrs. 
Frank Hutchins and daughter Irene of 
Cambridge, and Mr. and Mrs. Lester 
Morris and little child. Mr. Harding 
had arranged a beautiful Christmas tree 
with which to amuse the children. 
We are pleased to think so many 
people have picked out the Breeze this 
year to present to their friends as gifts 
during the coming year. We have re- 
ceived no less than fifteen such orders 
the past two weeks. ‘The first issue of 
the New Year is next week, and this 
would be an appropriate time to have 
your name or that of some friend, to 
whom you would send the Breeze, 
added to the list. We send the paper to 
any part of the country for one dollar a 
year. 
The joint installation of the recently 
elected and appointed officers of Post 67, 
Allen W. R. C. and Col. H. P. Wood- 
bury camp, 149, S. of V., will be held 
in the Town hall next Friday evening. 
C. T. Loomis had the insurance on 
his recent fire loss adjusted yesterday and 
will proceed at once to get ready to open 
his place of business again. 
Many Manchester people who read in 
yesterday’s papers of the terrible fire at 
Watertown Thursday night in which 
John Clark and family of four were lost, 
thought it was John Clarke, son of Joseph 
Clarke of West Manchester. By singu- 
lar coincidence both men are engaged in 
seed business, and for that reason it was 
thought it must have been the former 
Manchester young man. The BREEZE 
is informed by Mr. Clarke’s family, 
however, that he is well and happy and 
will be down tomorrow to spend Sunday 
with them. The John Clark whose death 
was recorded is known to some extent 
here, especially among gardeners and 
caretakers along theshore. He hasbeen 
a frequent visitor here. 
Liberty Rebekah lodge last night elect- 
ed these officers: Mrs. Anna H. 
Knight, noble grand; Miss Alice J. 
Haraden, vice grand; Mrs. Flora S. 
Hersey, rec. secy.; Miss Clara H. Sar- 
gent, fin. secy; Mrs. Emma E. Stanley, 
treas.; Geo. P. Dole, trustee three 
years. An initiation followed the elec-

NORTH SHORE BREEZE 
Picking a dish of dandilion blossoms 
on Christmas Day in Manchester sounds 
more like fancy than fact. Enoch 
Crombie, caretaker of the Rockwell 
estate, Smith’s Point, had that pleasure, 
however. He says though the blossoms 
were short stemmed, the color was as 
fresh as on a bright spring morning. 
Miss Evelyn Eldridge has been spend- 
ing the past few days with her sister, 
Miss Ina Eldridge, North street. 
The newspapers have contained 
accounts the past week of attempts 
to kidnap Eldredge, the 10-year-old 
son of Senator James F. Shaw, from 
the home of the lad’s grandfather, in 
Portsmouth, and also from Worcester, 
both of which attempts were frustrated 
through the alertness of Mr. Eldredge. 
Mrs. Arthur Jones of Marlboro spent 
Christmas with Mr. and Mrs. L. W. 
Carter. 
If you see this, others will see your 
reading notice. ‘That tests the value of 
66 >: : 
readers’ in the Breeze. ‘They are in- 
expensive. ‘Try them. 
Society Hotes 
Mrs. Russell Sturgis had a merry 
house-party at her Smith’s Point residence 
over Christmas, including her son 
Warren Sturgis, Mrs. Sturgis and three 
children, also Masters Norman and 
Allen Sturgis who attend school at 
Groton, and Miss Margaret Sturgis of 
Baltimore. The weather was so mild 
and springlike on Christmas Day that the 
younger members of the party were able 
to go in wading at Singing Beach. The 
young lads were more courageous and 
took a plunge in Putnam’s Pond. The 
ice was not sufficiently strong to hold 
them. 
Mr. and Mrs. F. M. Whitehouse al- 
so entertained a house party at their 
Manchester residence on Christmas Day. 
Their guests included Mr. and Mrs. 
W.D. Denegre and Mr. and Mrs. 
W. B. Walker. Mr. and Mrs. Den- 
egre are guests of Mr. and Mrs. Larz 
Anderson of Brookline over Sunday and 
they are leaving’ next week for their 
winter home in New Orleans.

THE BREEZE 
is the leading paper of the North Shore. One of its strongest points 
is that its clientele is a purchasing class; therefore it’s not so much the 
quantity of the circulation as the quality. It goes to the summer visitors in 
summer and follows them to their permanent residence in winter because it 
is wanted and paid for. That’s why it’s recognized as the best for advertising. 
Then, too, there is hardly a family in Manchester, Beverly Farms, 
Prides or Magnolia that does not take the Breeze regularly every Saturday. 
Ring 137 Manchester and our representative will call and talk it over 
with you. :
