AGED 82, PLANS 50 YEAR’S WoRK 
Basil Gildersleeve, professor of 
Greek at John Hopkins University, 
celebrated his 82d birthday yesterday. 
“Don't say anything about it ex- 
cept that I am still alive and as busy 
as ever,” he said, “and come to see 
me when I am 100, and I'll talk to 
you about retiring—maybe ! 
“You know, most old men work 
because they can’t help themselves. 
They imitate Guiteau, the man who 
assassinated Garfield. The morning 
of his execution Guiteau made a very 
elaborate toilet, and also took a bath, 
a thing he was not accustomed to do. 
This was to distnact his mind from 
what was coming. That is why an 
old man works—to keep his mind off 
the here and hereafter ,;which may or 
may not be pleasant.” 
The noted scholar looks hale and 
hearty. He still is editor of “The 
American Journal of Philology.” 
“And I hope,” the said, “I may 
continue to hold the position as long 
as I live. My work is all planned out 
for at least 50 years ahead.” 
Prof. Gildersleeve is the father of 
Mrs. Gardiner M. Lane of Manches- 
ter and Boston. He spends part of 
his summer on the North Shore each 
year. 
UnigugE Way oF Rartsinc Y.M.C.A. 
FuNDs 
The Beverly women have hit on a 
unique way for raising funds for the 
Y. M. C, A.—unique for this section, 
at least. The association has a defi- 
cit and the auxiliary has undertaken 
to wipe it out. They are to have an 
edition of 10,000 copies of “The Bevy- 
erly Beacon” issued and bright and 
early Saturday morning, Nov. 1, 
these will go on sale all over the city 
and suburbs. ‘The members of the 
auxiliary and a small army of young 
Beverly Misses will be ‘the “news- 
boys” and it is safe to say the “Bea- 
con” will be the most widely read pa- 
per in Essex County that day. 
Tt. wall be issued in periodical form 
—like the Breeze and will contain 24 
pages — brimming over with special

So SELFISH

“Thank heaven, these bills are got 
rid of,” said Bilkins fervently, as he 
tore up a bundle of statements of ac- 
counts dated May 1. 
“All paid, eh?” said Mrs. Bilkins. 
“Oh, no,” said Bilkins. “The dupli- 
cates dated June 1 have come in, and 
I don’t have to keep these any longer.”
