BEVERLY FARMS 
It is expected that the city will 
goon start to rebuild some of the 
sidewalks at the Farms, as there is 
an appropriation of $2,500 for that 
purpose. Local people seem to 
think that the walks in the business 
center, and those on Hale, Everett, 
Haskell and Hart streets should be 
attended to first. It has been in- 
timated that the lower end of West 
St. from the railroad crossing to 
West beach might be favored by 
some, but as this section is but little 
traveled except in summer, and 
then mostly in good weather, it 
would seem that this could wait.

COMMUNICATION. 
Editor North Shore Breeze, 
Dear Sir: The city of Beverly, 
through its mayor and aldermen 
have sold, this spring, to a private 
individual, the little triangular 
piece of land opposite St. Mar- 
garet’s church at Beverly Farms. 
Beverly Farms people do_ not 
know the exact terms by which the 
triangle was lost for public use, 
because of the alleged ‘‘under- 
eround’’ way in which the deal was 
made, but they do believe that no 
money consideration, whatever, can 
compensate the public for the loss 
of that -piece of land for a breath- 
‘ing spot. 
Tt was the only land bordering on 
the public highway between Bev- 
erly and Manchester that eould be 
used for that purpose, with the ex- 
ception of West Beach. 
This transaction shows the mis- 
taken policy, or want of policy, so 
Beverly Farms people think, that 
characterizes the city of Beverly. 
NORTH SHORE BREEZE 
Nearly all the beach rights are lost. 
It is thought necessary to have a 
public hearing in order to remove 
a tree, dead or alive, from the 
streets; a piece of land is sold or 
exchanged in a very quiet and sec- 
ret way; another blunder that can- 
not be remedied is added to the list. 
BEVERLY FARMS CITIZEN. 
Has Acquired Spaulding Gardens. 
Frank E. Cole, for the last eleven 
years in charge of the so-called 
Spaulding gardens at Beverly 
Farms, has secured the gardens and 
will conduct the same as a private 
enterprise in connection with other 
extensive property, which he will 
devote to nursery and florist busi- 
ness. Mr. Cole is an expert in his 
line. He is prepared to furnish 
plans and estimates for the plant- 
ing of private estates, public 
erounds, ete. The fact that he has 
planned and planted the greater 
part of the famous gardens above 
referred to, which have become so 
widely known for their many beau- 
tiful features, is ample proof of his 
ability to give expert attention to 
anything which he may be called 
upon to do. Aside from the gardens 
Mr. Cole has secured extensive hold- 
ings in that vicinity, including the 
Pierce nursery, and he is going into 
the nursery and florist business on 
an extensive scale. Among other 
things he will be prepared to furn- 
ish the North Shore with season- 
able produce, grown both indoor 
and out. He is also prepared to 
furnish gardeners, caretakers and 
handy men for private estates, 
which will prove a most useful 
agency for the North Shore people 
who desire help of this kind. 
‘‘Wariety Weather’’ Continues. 
Residents of the North Shore 
have been hoping the last few days 
that the Gulf stream or some other 
intangible force would coax some 
real spring weather to stay for 
more than a day on the shore. 
This week, as in the past few weeks 
of winter, we have had all of the 
seasons blended. Today’s snow 
flurry reminds us that winter is at- 
tempting to linger, while last Tues- 
day one might have suspected that 
spring was here in earnest. Intact, 
many relegated overcoats, etc., to 
summer resting places, only to haul 
them out again to ward off the 
frosty atmosphere which followed. 
However, it is said that the only 
person who is privileged to look 
down in the mouth is the dentist, 
so the shore people should smile 
7 
until spring really makes its ap- 
pearance. 
New Summer Home. 
Marblehead is to have another 
pretentious summer dwelling added 
to its colony when the new $75,000 
stucco summer home for Henry <A. 
Morse of Brookline is finished, as 
it is expected to be this season. Mr. 
Morse is the owner of the pictures- 
que house-boat Haleyon, which is 
modelled after the manner of the 
eraft of the time of Columbus. This 
boat is a familiar sight in Marble- 
head harbor during the summer. 
Mr. Morse has had his architects 
show equal originality in designing 
his new summer home and it will 
be one of the prettiest on the whole 
North Shore. It is situated on the 
inner shore of the Neck, between 
the Corinthian and Hastern yacht 
elubs and has its own private boat 
landing. A modern and well-equip- 
ped garage will be one of the feat- 
ures connected with the new house. 
George S. Sinnicks of Manchester 
is the contractor for the plaster and 
‘“slap-dash’’ work, which is to be 
the style of exterior finish. 
Business Notes. 
A new business is being establish- 
ed in Manchester this week. John 
M. Carter, for the last 22 years with 
the E. L. Rowe concern at Glouces- 
ter, and Wm. D, McCarthy, with 
the same concern for the last five 
years, have hired part of the Knight 
building on Elm St., known as the 
old schoolhouse and located oppo- 
site. Roberts & Hoare’s shop, and 
are going into the hammock and 
awning business, for which there is 
quite a field on the North Shore. 
With Manchester as a center these 
men intend to work up an extensive 
North Shore trade. Their exper- 
ience in this line of work and their 
knowledge of the wants of North 
Shore people in this particular line 
places them in an unusually good 
position for prompt and _ efficient 
service. They will keep their place 
open the year round, it is announc- 
ed. 
HEARING

of the Board of Selectmen Tuesday
