It has been said that nine in every 
10 men are dissatisfied with the work 
they are engaged in. it-4savrare 
thing to find a man who has lived his 
life in the way he w ould have chosen. 
Such a man is Alfred S. Jewett, who 
is retiring after 29 years of service as 
Town ‘Clerk of Manchester. Mr. 
Jewett declares that each year of his 
chosen work has brought: with it add- 
ed pleasure. It was,a.case where a 
man found outlet for his; particular 
talents and SpporHi nies tor their 
cultivation.
