The second in the series of band 
concerts was given on the Common 
Wednesday evening, and a big crowd 
was on hand for the music. Not only 
from along the shore, but from Mag- 
nolia, Gloucester and Beverly Farms

Few of those who heard the music 
knew that the first selection, ‘‘Fren- 
zied Finance,” was composed by Ches- 
ter D. Cook, one of Manchester’s 
young men. Mr. Cook, it will be 
recalled, composed the ‘Col. Wood- 
bury March,” played here on Memo-

publishing house, and the latter in 
particular is taking quite well. The 
Salem Cadet band includes it in their 
program at Wonderland.
