Mr. and Mrs. Wesley D. Leland of 
Rockland, Me., have been among the 
visitors to Beverly Farms the past 
week. 
The second in a series of dances by 
the Winter Social club will be given 
in Town hall, Manchester, this (Fri- 
day) evening. adv. 
Preston Relief corps will conduct 
a series of public whist parties dur- 
ing winter months. The first will 
take place in G. A. R. hall some eve- 
ning next week, it is expected. 
James McTiernan, caretaker of 
Mrs. Randolph Frothingham’s estate 
at Beverly Farms, has the sympathy 
of his many friends here in the loss 
of his wife, Margaret (Meehan) Mc- 
Tiernan, who passed away at the Bev- 
erly hospital last Sunday. 
The Elks’ bazaar at Beverly City 
hall, which commenced Wednesday 
evening and will continue through the 
week has been a strong attraction for 
many Beverly Farms people. Sev- 
eral Farms’ men, who are members 
ot the order, with their families, are 
serving on committees. 
Newly elected officers of Andrew 
Standley camp, S. of V., were in- 
stalled at G. A. R. hall last Friday 
evening by District Aid John L. 
Prest, assisted by Hollis A. Bell, both 
of Manchester. The following will 
conduct the affairs of the camp the 
coming year: commdr. George 5S. 
Day; sr. vice commdr., Geo. S. Wil- 
fais; jr. vice commdr., Harry C-. 
Hannable; camp council, J. M. 
Younger, Clarence N. Preston, Chas. 
PF. Day; secy.. J. Sewall Day; treas., 
Lewis G. Williams; guide, E. Fred 
Day; patriotic instructor, George F. 
Wood; chaplain, Rev. Clarence S. 
Pond; musician, Arthur Poole. 
Much to the disappointment of 
Beverly Farms people Mayor Mc- 
Pherson did not nominate Howard 
P. Williams for reappointment as 
building inspector. at the meeting of 
the aldermen on Monday evening. 
Andrew Stanley of the city proper 
was named for the job. As _ the 
nomination lays over for a week be- 
fore being confirmed by the board if 
is hoped that enough of them will de- 
cline to accept the Mayor’s appointee 
thus retaining Mr. Williams in office. 
As far as can be learned the only 
fault with Mr. Williavs as building 
inspector is that he was an appointee 
of former Mayor Macdonald. He 
is a well known Beverly Farms young 
man, a carpenter by trade and as a 
city official has been faithful and 
efficient.
