SNORTH SHORE BREEZE 
MANCHESTER 
Warren Crombie, in company with 
two Beverly young men, has gone to 
Philadelphia for a vacation trip, 
making the journey by motor-cycle. 
Claude Temple, who now lives at 
Hillsboro, N. H., was in town the 
last week renewing acquaintances. 
Thomas P. Lohan, a member of 
Engine 26, one of the busiest com- 
panies of the Boston Fire depart- 
ment, is stopping with his wife at 
the Silver cottage on Summer street, 
for two weeks. He has already in- 
spected the-local fire station and says 
the new auto truck will be a great 
improvement to the town depart- 
ment. The rapid response to an 
alarm and catching a fire in its in- 
fancy are the most important fea- 
tures of an auto fire truck, says Mr. 
Lohan. 
Weather permitting the Manches- 
ter Launch elub will start tomorrow 
afternoon at 2 o’clock on a short 
cruise around Cape Ann to Annis- 
quam. The flotilla of motor boats 
will be headed by the Mahdeen IV, 
Commodore Needham’s large yacht. 
A number of members of the club, 
other than boat owners, are plan- 
ning to take the outing. 
Y. M. C. A. BUILDING 1 FOR MANCHESTER? 
A movement is soon to be started 
in Manchester looking toward the es- 
tablishment in the town of a Y. M. 
C. A. organization, with a home of 
its own. 
As many are doubtless aware a 
good work among the boys has been 
carried on for several years under 
the direction of the county organiza- 
tion of the Y. M. C. A. Those who 
have been in charge of this work 
feel that its future success war- 
rants the placing of it upon a 
broad and permanent foundation. A 
regular organization of the young 
men, with a well-equipped Y.M.C A. 
building would be a very valuable 
acquisition to the town. 
Several men, having at heart the 
welfare of the young men, have con- 
sidered it a good time to move 
toward this end. They are desirous 
of soliciting funds for the purchase 
of a piece of land, centrally located, 
and adaptable to the purpose, on 
which an option has already been se- 
cured. 
The local board of management, 
Essex County Y. M. C. A., is com- 
posed of Richard L. Cheever (treas- 
urer), George S. Sinnicks, Dr. W. H.

son went to Maine with them and re- 
mained over the last week-end.
