April 20, 1917. 
WENHAM 
At the Congregational church Sun- 
day morning the minister, Rev. F. M. 
Cutler, will preach. Sunday School 
menoon. junior C. HE. at 5. Y. P. 
S.C. E. at 6. There will be a preach- 
ing service at 7. 
A further exhibition of local pat- 
riotisn has been Therba Libby’s ef- 
fort, apparently successful, to secure 
subscriptions for a motor ambulance 
in town. Mr. Libby is a student at 
Columbia, where military and naval 
service are emphasized as a young 
man’s duty; and he exhibits the true 
Columbia spirit. 
Although the patriotic meeting last 
week was not fully advertized and 
consequently not so largely attended 
as it might have been, the speeches 
delivered, especially that of Mr. 
Fiske, were all worth hearing. And 
the interesting fact was brought out 
that Wenham already has fifteen 
young men enlisted in the navy, the 
iztional guard, and the naval reserve. 
Wenham girls have long complain- 
ed that they did not enjoy the same 
advantages as the boys in the matter 
of “scouting”; but now it will be their 
own fault if this continues true. For 
Mrs. Carl Dennett responded to the 
request of the local ladies, and visited 
town on Tuesday for the purpose of 
organizing a local unit of the Girl 
NODE SHORE BREEZE 
Scouts. Friends of the girls feel that 
the Scouts will succeed better than 
would the Campfire Girls organiza- 
tion, 
Because of the growth in the Con- 
gregational Sunday School it was 
necessary to procure additional equip- 
ment; visitors to the chapel cannot 
but admire the handsome filing-cabi- 
net which ornaments the corner of 
the room, and when they glance with- 
in, they find a complete assortment of 
supplies for all the elementary grades. 
“The New Minister” musical com- 
edy, given by the Rial Side choir a 
few weeks ago was so successful that 
the same artists have been invited to 
present a sequel to their original pro- 
duction, entitled “Our Minister’s 
Honeymoon,” on Tuesday evening 
next. The entertainment will be un- 
der the direction of the music com- 
mittee. 
A year ago the department of mem- 
bership conducted a “get-together so- 
ciable” for all members of the church 
and congregation, and met with so 
cordial a reception that they will re- 
peat the venture next week. All who 
are sixteen years of age or older are 
invited to meet in the chapel Thurs- 
day evening, April 26, at 8 o'clock, 
for purposes of sociability. A short 
program of entertainment will be 
rendered and there will be light re- 
freshments; but the object of the 
21 
gathering is to promote better ac- 
quaintanceship, and everyone will be 
asked to “know” everyone else before 
the evening is over. Mrs. Charles 
Patch and William Flynn are leaders 
of this movement.
