WENHAM. 
Last Saturday the Wenham tea 
‘house closed for the season. While 
in common with all other such en- 
terprises the Wenham tea house has 
felt the hard times, still the year has 
‘been financially profitable. The 
ladies of the Village Improvement 
Society who have charge of the 
“tabby cat” feel especially elated over 
‘the words of approval received from 
' patrons who are familiar with tea 
- rooms all over the state. 
Additional proof that Essex county 
is too populous for the existing sys- 
tem of indiscriminate gunning was 
given last week, when Miss Helen 
Burnham of “Overlook” was in im- 
minent danger of being hit by the shot 
_ of a trespasser on her estate. 
Sunday morning at the village 
church the minister, Rev. F. M. Cut-

Serving as a court of honor to ex- 
amine boy scouts is one function of 
the committee on recreation of the de- 
partment of social service. On Mon- 
day this committee, consisting of Al- 
bert A. Tracy, Harvey R. Williams, 
and Edgar W. Sawyer, with Herbert 
W. Porter ex officio, admitted War- 
ren Sawyer to the second class of 
scoutcraft, and five boys to the ten-

West Wenham’s men, belonging to 
the Willing Workers, gave a supper 
to the organization in the Mapleville 
chapel Wednesday. 
Strangers confuse Wenham with 
its neighbor town on the north. Sun- 
day morning several attended the 
village church under misapprehension 
that they could there participate in 
the Hamilton bi-centennial.

Throughout the national forests the 
rangers are posting the roads with 
permanent guide signs which tell dis- 
tances and directions, especially at 
forks and crossroads. The signs are 
usually put up in the winter when 
other work tends to be light. On 
some forests the rangers go on snow- 
shoes, dragging loaded sleds and nail 
the signboards to the roadside trees. 
Many a man grows gray waiting 
for a chance that some other fellow 
has gone out and grabbed.
