NORTH 
BEVERLY FARMS 
The Girls’ orchestra met last eve- 
ning for the first time after the sum- 
mer vacation and for the coming 
winter months have decided to make 
their gatherings of a social nature. 
Last Tuesday was closing day at 
| West beach. The shutters were put 
on the bathhouse and the doors 
locked. Supt. George Metcalf also 
concluded his season’s duties there. 
A number of Farms residents 
might have gotten the impression 
| that the Farms fire department had 
a new piece of fire apparatus, Tues- 
day evening, as an auto combination 
truck was resting in front of the 
West street station for a short while. 
It belonged to Gloucester and was 
on its way to that city from the re- 
pair shop. 
Russell Cadigan of the Farms, a 
eraduate of the Beverly High school 
last June, has secured a position as 
clerk in the City National bank, 
Boston. 
A large audience greeted Mrs. 
John A. Fowler at the Farms Bap- 
_tist chapel Tuesday evening to hear 
the famous Civil war nurse lecture. 
She was interesting and entertaining 
and her subject covered many rem- 
iniscences of those trying times from | 
61 to °65 on the battlefield and in 
the hospitals where she nursed the 
wounded soldiers. She also sang 
some songs that she used to sing in 
those days and also exhibited many 
interesting souvenirs and mementos 
of the battles, including a confeder- 
ate flag. The affair was conducted 
by the Girls’ club. 
Last Tuesday evening some Bev- 
erly Farms people missed the last 
train home from Beverly and either 
had to stay in Beverly all night or 
come by motor or carriage. They 
were in the station waiting room 
and a freight came in on the inward 
track, blocking the way across, with 
the result that when the Gloucester 
branch theatre train came into the 
station, they could not get across to 
their train——another reason why 
there should be another waiting 
room on the other side of the tracks 
at the Beverly station. 
Mr. and Mrs. Edward Hawkins of 
Boston have moved to the Farms 
and are occupying apartments in 
the Geo. 8. Hadley house, Hart street 
and Greenwood avenue. Mr. Haw- 
kins has charge of the Bartlett es- 
tate, Grove street. 
Wilbur E. McDonald is the new 
station agent at Beverly Farms, the - 
transfer taking place Wednesday. 
The new agent has been for a num- 
ber of years the cashier at the Bev- 
erly freight house.

For Better Sidewalks at Beverly 
Farms 
The petition of the Beverly Farms 
residents for better sidewalks at 
Beverly Farms, came before the 
board of aldermen at their meeting 
last Monday night. The petition as 
printed in last week’s Breeze was 
read and evoked considerable dis- 
cussion. Alderman Loring said that 
we needed better sidewalks not only 
at Beverly Farms but throughout 
the entire city. He was in favor of 
building sidewalks and the city pay 
for them. Of course that might call 
forth some criticism from people 
who had paid half for their present 
sidewalks, but because we had done 
this in the past, it was no criterion 
that we should do this in the future. 
He believed in granolithic sidewalks 
for the center of the city and for 
brick or conerete in the outlying 
districts. Alderman Torrey said 
that the street committee had sub- 
mitted their estimates for the ensu- 
ing year and he thought that instead : 
of referring this matter to the street 
committee, it would be well to refer 
it to the finance committee and then 
if they thought favorably they eould 
provide for sidewalks at the Farms 
in the Budget. Alderman Ropes 
said that he was a believer in side- 
walks, but he did not think the eity 
should pay for them at the Farms 
and make the abuttors in the center 
of the city pay one-half. Alderman 
Loring said that he did not mean 
that, he meant that the city pay for 
all sidewalks.. We should have a 
comprehensive plan and build good 
sidewalks throughout the city, even 
if we had to bond the appropriation. 
There are more people walk than 
WYATT’S MARKET 
Beverly, Mass. 
ride, and sidewalks were just as im- 
portant as good streets. Alderman 
Woodberry moved that the matter 
be referred to the finance committee 
and it was so referred. 
Commenting on Alderman Lor- 
ing’s remarks at the meeting, the 
Salem Evening News says: ‘‘The 
remarks of Alderman Loring at the 
meeting of the aldermen Monday 
evening upon the question of side- 
walks, in speaking of the petition 
from the Farms, are receiving com- 
mendation all over the city. His 
position is generally approved by 
the tax payers. There is nothing 
that will give more satisfaction than 
decent sidewalks.”’
