WENHAM 
Tonight, Friday, is the occasion of 
ie long expected Christian Endeavor 
rama, “Mr. Bob.” 
Town meeting has come and gone, 
javing kindly memories behind it. 
irs. Harriet E. Pingree’s bequest of 
memorial park was accepted with 
jearty unanimity, as an expression 
f the esteem in which that excellent 
dy was held by her fellow citizens. 
ubstantial progress was noted in the 
ovement for town water. 
| Wenham always had an appearance 
'£ substantial prosperity. Houses are 
‘ell built, well kept and attractive. 
)€ late years additional steps have 
‘een taken in betterment. Streets are 
‘ept clean and well paved with artis- 
ce displays of shrubbery at prominent 
lorners. Street signs are of quaint 
od handsome appearance. The town 
louse grounds are a real embellish- 
tent to the town. A school-house of 
irtistic excellence affords worthy op- 
ortunities to the children. Electric 
itreet-lights give satisfactory service 
jiall seasons of the year. Visitors to 
‘ywn entering by the chief gateway,

town has for ever safeguarded itself 
against the less desirable type of 
houses and all the evils that accom- 
pany defective housing. By voting 
“no” each year on the license ques- 
tion and by continuing in office select- 
men who are conscientious about law 
enforcement, Wenham defends itself 
against another grave evil. On the 
license question the town is reaching 
a point where it is not only “no lic- 
ense” but almost “no votes for lic- 
ense.” The ‘“‘yes” vote was 35 in I912, 
then successively 31, 14, 10, and this 
year attained the low mark of 8. And 
in the last three years the total vote 
cast has been increasing. 
At the Congregational church Sun- 
day morning the minister, Rev. F. M. 
Cutler, will preach on “Our Duty to 
-Christ’s Church.” Sunday School at

the department of missions will pre- 
sent a stereopticon lecture by Rev. 
Merritt A. Farren of Boston, on “Our 
Sailors ‘and Their Lite.” 
At the communion service last Sun- 
day the table was ornamented by the 
presence of the handsome old com- 
munion cup presented to the church 
in 1723 by Capt. Thomas Fiske. So 
the gulf of time is bridged. The 
Wenham church was old and well 
established when it first received this 
cup, even then occupying the third of

A good friend has just presented the 
church with a handsome hem-stitched 
linen cloth for the communion table. 
Wenham boy scouts visited North 
3everly Tuesday evening and gave an 
exhibition of their work, for the pur- 
pose of assisting the North Beverly 
boys to get well started. 
As a consequence of the Village 
Improvement Society’s efforts to raise 
money for the new tea house, Wen- 
ham is favored with a constant suc- 
cession of social events such as card 
parties, informal dances, and others. 
Last Saturday some of the ladies un- 
der the leadership of Mrs. O. L. Wood- 
bury conducted a highly successful 
food sale in the old tea house. 
Seventy-five years ago Wenham 
maintained a troop of militia cavalry 
for a few months. Since then there 
has been nothing more warlike than 
the boy scouts. Now comes the Es- 
sex County Rifle club and establishes 
an indoor range in the loft of the Bay 
State car-barn—at least the same is 
promised for the immediate future. 
It appears that many Wenhamites are 
enthusiastic riflemen, among them
