and concluded 50 years of service as 
organist of the village church on

have taken many ways of expressing 
appreciation of Mr. Conant’s faithful 
service. The music committee en- 
gaged Miss Ware to play in consider- 
ation of Mr. Conant’s resignation, 
and she entered upon her new duties 
last Sunday.

When the village church decided to 
install a new steel ceiling, the Maple- 
ville chapel concluded that the oppor- 
tunity was favorable for doing like- 
wise. Consequently the same firm was 
engaged to perform the task, and both

Wenham’s progressive town clerk, 
William Porter, recently purchased a 
new mahogany, silver mounted, ballot 
box for use in town elections. ‘There 
will now be an additional pleasure in 
winning an election under such artis- 
tic circumstances, while defeat will 
now lose half its sting.
