ATTRACTIVE QUARTERS. 
Salem Commercial School’s New Quarters 
Among Finest in the Country. 
The new quarters of the Salem Com- 
mercial School, just completed, at 126 
Washington street, Salem, are, beyond 
any question, the best equipped and 
finest modeled 
business college 
in this section of 
the country. The 
old quarters were 
destroyed by fire 
in February, and 
in equipping the 
. new building 
GEO. P. LORD everything has 
been done with an eye to making the 
school the best possible. 
George P. Lord, who, by the way, 
stands high among the educators of 
the country as regards commercial 
education, has personally attended to 
the selection of equipment for the new 
quarters, and everything is of the fin- 
est oak finish, with substantial desks 
and tables and seats. 
The whole of the third and fourth 
floors are devoted to the school. The 
former is designated the shorthand 
floor, and here is located the business 
office, Mr. Lord’s private office, and 
the model office. The check, stock, 
shorthand, dictation and typewriter 
rooms are on this floor also. 
The business department takes up 
the whole of the top floor, with the 
large bookkeeping room, with banks, 
postoffice, model office, etc., occupy- 
ing practically one-half the space. On 
this floor are also the lunch room, 
toilets, a recitation and the examina- 
tion rooms, in which Mr. Lord has 
placed the same substantial kind of 
furniture as in the other rooms, and in 
the latter room he has some real “ anti- 
cribbing’’ desks of his own design. 
An emergency room is a new feature 
introduced, with a medical case and 
lounge. 
The building is, withal, one of the 
finest equipped for -business college 
purposes in this section of the country. 
An Unmistakable Hit. 
There have been abounding signs of 
popularity for ‘The College Widow,” 
which will begin its third week at the 
Tremont next Monday. The first 
fortnight’s performances brought peo- 
ple from the beaches and everywhere 
else, every audience filling the house 
and leaving it delighted. Any one 
can recognize its cleverness in dialogue 
and character sketching, and, more- 
over, every one is infected with the 
buoyant, youthful spirit of the story.

It is not easy to recall a play in which 
so many healthy, wholesome young 
people are introduced. It is the hey- 
day of the college boy and his best 
girl—a sunshiny picture and an exhil- 
erating one. ‘The College Widow” 
is at the Tremont for a eonsiderable 
stay. The avidity with which the 
public has already seized its many good 
points indicates that the engagement 
will be pre-eminent, even among the 
notable runs of Mr. Savage’s other 
Boston productions.
