MANCHESTER ELECTRIC CO. 
Unusually Able Bit of Financing Done 
During Last Year 
For able financing of a small com- 
pany, the annual report of the Man- 
chester Electric company, as filed with 
the state gas and electric light com- 
missioners, is interesting. It shows 
that the management changed over a 
deficit of $2600 of a year before to a 
surplus of nearly $4800 this year, 
besides paying a small dividend. 
The Manchester company, it must be 
remembered, maintains a distributing 
plant only; it buys its power from Bev- 
erly. The report follows:

HALLOWE'EN 
Spooks and goblins were seen in 
the highways last Friday night. 
White-sheeted boys and girls, with 
faces masked and carrying pumpkin 
lanterns were seen everywhere. Here 
and there there was a boy or girl in 
red or black and all carried a lantern 
or an effective bean-blower. 
Windows all over town were pelted 
with a shower of beans. Doorbells 
were rung and in many cases those 
who answered were confronted by a 
ghostly visitor with a pumpkin lan- 
tern or a bean blower. There was no 
real roughness reported — for it was 
a jolly good night, a night when the 
youngsters made the most of it and 
were allowed full swing. 
There were several  Hallowe’en 
parties and a dance was also held in 
the Town hall.
