WAMPSCOTT summer residents will be on the Shore 
in large numbers over the extended week-end, many 
coming down today and staying over Memorial Day, next 
Tuesday. This holiday always brings many more fami- 
lies down for the entire season. The next detachment, if 
sucn it might be called, comes on June 17, and from then 
the season is on in full swing. All that is needed, as in other 
parts of the Shore, is plenty of warm weather, which 
makes the shore a more comfortable place than the city. 
More Western people are noted on this part of the Shore 
than ever. 
On Memorial Day at the Tedesco Country club there 
will probably be a larger gathering than last year, when 
there were 200 present for dinner and dancing. There 
will be dancing afternoon and evening with special lun- 
cheon and dinner. 
Wednesday evening at Tedesco about 40 members of 
the Harvard club gathered at the clubhouse, had dinner 
and listened to a Preparedness talk by one of their mem- 
bers who was at Plattsburg last summer.

few days are: 
Ludwig Eisemann of Boston at “Sea Bend,” Puritan

Welcome news to the merchanis 
and motorists of Manchester and vi- 
cinity is the announcement that the 
end of another week will see the com- 
pletion of re-building of the highway 
in the center of the Town of Man- 
chester—barring unfavorable weather. 
Work is being rushed as rapidly as 
possible during pleasant weather. 
Crushed stone has been placed on 
one-half the road from the junctioa 
of Bennett, Pine and Bridge sts. to the 
postoffice. Steam rollers have been 
at work packing down the stone in 
preparation for the application of the 
asphalt. The first coating was given 
the road at the junction of Bridge and 
Bennett streets yesterday and it is ex- 
pected that by tomorrow (Saturday ) 
nignt the surfacing of one-half the 
street will be completed as far as 
Lee’s corner. 
If bad weather does not interfere 
the work will be completed as far as 
the postoffice by Memorial day. Im- 
mediately after the asphalt coat has 
been applied to the south side of the 
road, work on the bed of the other 
side will be commenced and it is ex- 
pected that by Saturday night of next 
school to the westerly junction of 
Bennett and Bridge st. will be com- 
pleted. When that stretch of road 
is done, operations will be pushed on 
the West Manchester end of the high- 
way. Nothing except a continued 
period of bad weather will hold up 
the work at this stage. The construc- 
tion will be pushed along every pleas- 
ant day from now on, including Sun- 
days and holidays.. It is said that un- 
less something unforeseen occurs tlie 
work will be entirely completed by the 
28th of June, as called for under the 
contract.
