VOLUME 3. NUMBER 3 
SATURDAY, JANUARY 20, 1906. 
The high run of tides and the surf 
caused by the strong easterly gale of 
Sunday drew quite a number of lovers 
of angry old Neptune to the beaches 
Monday. The surf at Magnolia, 
Singing Beach and off West Man- 
chester, between the islands, was fine 
to look upon. 
In his annual report E. C. Hutchin- 
son, commissioner of public roads in 
New Jersey, suggests a novel plan 
for dealing with automobiles, which, 
we think might well be adopted here 
in Massachusetts also. In fact, Gov. 
Guild did hint at this in his inaugural. 
The commissioner urges the taxing 
of automobiles on the basis of their 
destructive power to the public high- 
ways, the measure of which he thinks 
should be the maximum speed of 
which each machine is capable. The 
justification for such a method of tax- 
ation is that owners of automobiles 
should be charged, as nearly as pos- 
sible, for the actual damage they do 
to the roads. Unless some limitation 
is enforced the commissioner believes 
that much of the money which has 
been spent by the state in the im- 
provement of roads will be wasted. 
The report further recommends the 
licensing of chauffeurs and the pas- 
sage of a law prohibiting the use of 
armored tires, chain tires and blowers, 
all of which add to the destructive 
forces of the automobile. 
WHISPERINGS. 
Those of our North Shore auto en- 
thusiasts who are contemplating a 
journey in Holland ought to carry 
along with them an extra grip with 
the Dutch name for automobile se- 
curely locked therein. It is “ snell- 
paardelooszoonderspoorwegpit roolrijt- 
ung,’ a word of forty letters thus 
compounded: ‘ Snell,” rapid ; ‘ paar- 
deloos,”’ horseless ;  “ zoondelspoor- 
weg,” without rails ; “ pitroolrijtung,”’ 
driven by petroleum. 
The “N. B. Sargent School.” 
Editor of the North Shore Breeze: 
At this time when names are being 
suggested for the new school house 
now nearing completion, it seems fit- 
ting and proper that one be chosen 
which would be an honor to the build- 
ing and to the town. In addition to 
the several names already mentioned 
in the BREEZE, which are well deserv- 
ing, I would suggest the name of one 
who for years was a faithful teacher 
among us; much beloved by all his 
pupils ; a co-worker in all that was for 
the educational welfare of the town, 
and one that is as dear today in the 
hearts of the people of Manchester as 
in the days when he dwelt among us. 
And from a moral, religious and edu- 
cational stand-point I would suggest 
a name which is paramout to all 
others — Prof. N. B. Sargent — Let it 
be the “N. B. Sargent School.” 
ONE OF HIS PUPILS. 
Manchester, Jan. 19, 1906. 
“Veronique ” Coming to the 
Hollis Street Theatre 
Klaw & Erlanger announce the en- 
gagement of Mr. George Edwardes’ 
London company in the comic opera, 
“Veronique,” at the Hollis Street 
theatre beginning Monday evening, 
January 22nd. “Veronique” has the 
distinction of having had a run of 500 
consecutive nights at the Apollo 
theatre, London, and was brought to 
this country in October where it has 
been running at the Broadway thea- 
tre, New York, ever since. The 
piece was adopted from the French 
by Henry Hamilton, and the music is 
by that distinguished composer, 
Andre Messager, conductor at the 
Convent Garden, London. Miss 
Ruth Vincent, the star, who was seen 
in this country last season with “The 
Medal and the Maid” will enac: the 
title-role, that of “Veronique.” Mr. 
Edwardes has surrounded Miss Vin- 
cent with a strong and capable cast 
including. Miss Kitty Gordon, Miss 
Valli Valli, Miss Lena Maitland, Miss 
Emmie Santer, Mr. Lawrence Res, | 
Mr. Aubrey Fitzgerald, Mr. Ralph 
Nairn, Mr. John Malcolm and Mr. 
John Le Hay. 
The great charm of ‘Veronique’ 
is the daintiness of the story, the ex- 
quisite artistic beauty of the mount- 
ing, and the music which has been 
wedded to this interesting story is the 
best that the noted composer Mes- 
sager, has ever given us. 
Matinees will be given Saturday of 
each week at which performance the 
curtain will rise at 2 o’clock sharp. 
The curtain at the evening per- 
formances will rise at 8 o’clock sharp. 
Society Notes 
Mr. and Mrs. Francis Meredyth 
Whitehouse are away from their Man- 
chester Cove estate for a fortnight or 
more. They started a week ago yes- 
terday, going to New York over Sun- 
day, thence to Chicago the first of 
this week. They think of returning 
by way of Quebec, if the weather is 
propitious. Meredyth, jr., returned 
last week to his school duties at West- 
minster, Conn. 
Mr. and Mrs. Clarence Moore and 
Mr. Edwin C. Swift left Pride’s the 
first of the week, Mr. Swift for Atlan- 
tic City and Mr. and Mrs. Moore for 
Florida, where they will spend most 
of the balance of the winter. Mr. 
Moore, being somewhat of an auto 
enthusiast, will no doubt take in the 
races at Ormond. 
Prominent among the fiancees at 
the ball which Mr. and Mrs. F. I. 
Amory gave at the Somerset last Fri- 
day night to introduce their daughter, 
Miss Mary Josephine Amory, was 
Miss Naneen Mitchell, who is still at 
Manchester with her parents. Miss 
Mitchell wore pale blue satin covered 
with tulle. 
Mrs. Quincy A. Shaw, jr., and 
Master Q. A. Shaw, 3d, of Pride’s 
and Boston, are registered at the 
Chalfonte, Atlantic City, N.J.
