NORTH SHORE BREEZE 
MANCHESTER 
Owing to the wet and backward 
spring the driving of the wells and the 
experimental tests at Beaver Dam 
Meadow has been delayed, but Supt. 
Andrews has begun to clear the 
ground and expects to have the well 
drivers at work next week. 
Mr. and Mrs. George W. Goldsmith 
of Winthrop, formerly of this town, 
are receiving congratulations on the 
advent of a little daughter, Helen 
Giles, on the morning ot June 13. 
Miss Susette Carter of Boston will 
spend the -holiday a guest of her 
cousin, Mrs. J. S. Reed, Beach street. 
The first in the series of band con- 
certs to be given in Manchester this 
summer was on last Wednesday even- 
ing on the Common, the square being 
crowded for the event. The program 
offered by the band was exceptionally 
good. The second concert will be on 
Wednesday evening, June 27. L.M. 
Blythe, the band leader and instructor, 
has not been hired for the season, and 
will conclude his services after the 
next concert. The band will probably 
have an instructor from Boston in the 
future. 
The street through the centre of 
the town, which has been in the hands 
of the street department the past 
week or two was completed Thursday. 
The construction —of a pitch-macadam 
combination—is similar to that built 
by Supt. Kimball along by the post- 
office last fall, and from the way that 
is wearing, it is safe to say this new 
road-bed will wear long and well under 
the torturing of the autos. Supt. 
Kimball says automobiles are great 
road punishers, but this new method 
of construction which he is introduc- 
ing in Manchester will stand its own 
against anything that will come for a 
few years, at any rate. 
Lifted body and soul out of the 
ground and suffering consequent de- 
struction at the hands of the wood- 
man’s axe was the fate of a beautiful 
shade tree on School street, near the 
Catholic church property, Thursday. 
A steel guy line from the large steam 
derrick being used in connection with 
the construction of the new church 
was fastened to the tree some time 
ago and the strain on this Thursday 
morning tore the tree from the 
ground, destroying it. 
Mr. and Mrs. Isaac M. Marshall 
left Sunday for Indianapolis, Ind., 
where Mr. Marshall went as dele- 
gate to represent the New England 
Suburbam Press association at the 
National Editorial convention in 
that city, June 12-15. The Cricket 
is in charge of L. W. Floyd during 
Mr. Marshall’s absence. 
Graduation Exercises. 
The graduation exercises of the 
Story High school will occur next

thirteen who will receive diplomas.

phecy. The other members of the

nicks, Harold Betts, Misses Edna

A Generous Act. 
Allen’ Post, 67;.Gi0A. R,,, ot Man: 
chester report that the Rev. Dillon 
Bronson, who delivered the address 
here on Memorial Day, after re- 
ceipting his bill in payment of serv- 
ices, deducted his expenses from 
the amount received and handed 
the balance, $16, to Quartermaster 
Haskell with the request that it be 
credited to the Relief Fund of the 
Post. The members greatly ap- 
preciate his act of generosity and 
have acknowledged the same 
through the adjutant of the Post.
