Storer F. Crafts, manager of the — 
Boston, had — 
Commonwealth hotel, 
an informal meeting with the Glouc- 
ester municipal council recently im — 
the interest of his proposed develop- 
ment of Russ’ island. Mr. Crafts is 
anxious to have a road built from 
the West Gloucester marshes to the ~

Entirely too many people in this 
world are ‘making themselves cross- 
eyed looking for the street of easy 
money. This is as vain and foolish 
as hunting for the pot of gold at the 
end of the rainbow. 
Nearly all cooks have a cake fall 
sometimes. Don’t worry. I know 
a young man who won his wife by 
saying when her cake fell: ‘‘I always 
did like cake that had fallen.”” —
