the country, in the data sent to the 
secretary of state as to valuations, 
tax rate, etc. Last year she was 
eighth. The valuation, $10,927,392, is 
greater than Newburyport. The tax 
rate is in fourth position, as it was 
last year, also. 
John D_ Rockefeller received .$5,-

WHISPERINGS. 
An owner of automobiles — one of 
the members of our summer colony — 
sends me the following clipping from 
Morgan's Motoring Message, which 1s 
headed ‘‘ Ten Automobile Command- 
ments,” and suggests that owners of 
the horseless learn these command- 
ments by heart before next season. 
Here. they are: 
1. Thou shalt not scorch on the 
public roads or challenge thine enemy 
to a race on same. 
2. Thou shall not boast of thy mile- 
age or of thy tires, for pride goeth be- 
fore a puncture. 
3. Thou shall not gayly pass an- 
other by and refuse assistance, for 
ae may be ina like condition some 
ay. 
4. Remember thy spark plugs and 
keep them clean and thy batteries 
charged. e 
5. Thou shalt not neglect to work 
for good roads so that thy going shall 
be smooth. 
6. Fill thy tanks with gasolene be- 
fore starting on a journey so that you 
may not be stuck in the woods miles 
from home. 
7. Honor an honest repairer, but 
keep tabs on thy chauffeur so that thy 
automobile be not abused. 
8. Do unto the drivers of other ve- 
hicles as you would have them to do 
to you. 
§. Thou shall not borrow thy neigh- 
bor’s pump, nor his jack, nor his tube 
or anything that is thy neighbor’s. 
10. Thy shalt not try to improve 
on the work of thy manufacturer, be- 
cause they that take lessons from 
schools of correspondence are ofttimes | 
shy of knowledge.

«Election returns by wireless”’ is 
the manner in which a West Man- 
chester friend of mine received the 
results of the recent vote. He tells 
the story himself, so it must be so. 
As a matter of fact he wasn’t over 
interested in the result of the vote, 
except, perhaps, that for senator, and 
it was the result of this particular vote 
he learned probably before anybody 
else. In the early evening, so he 
says, he saw the home of Manches- 
ter’s senatorial candidate brilliantly 
lighted with electric lights from cellar 
to garret, and he thought that must 
signify sure victory for the Manches- 
ter man. Pretty soon he looked at 
the house from his window, and only 
a few rooms were lighted; things were 
beginning to look rather dubious, and 
the hopes of the Newporter advanced 
a little (for he was an anti-Shaw man). 
Shortly after this he looked at the 
house and—to put it in his own 
words — ‘‘ not a d—— light was burn- 
ing except a kerosene lamp in the 
cellar.” That was enough; he knew 
Shaw had lost, and a few minutes 
afterward he walked into Cheever’s 
and called for the best cigars in the 
place. .
