God? If he is suspicious of men? If 
he doubts the miracles? If he is self-

sion be evaded? Is the reqirement sim- 
ilar for a profession? How long can a

It was expected that work would 
start today on the widening of Raymond 
street, in the square, at Magnolia village. 
This has been a matter of contemplation 
for some years, but only within the past 
few months has anything definite been 
done. The thing has gone through 
now, however, and the work will be 
started at once. [The entrance into 
Magnolia at this point has always been 
dangerous, especially since the autos 
have become sonumerous. ‘lhe corner 
will be rounded off, beginning about 
opposite the Willow cottage. 
Miss Marjory May has resumed her 
duties at the telephone office after a 
week’s vacation. 
Mrs. Joseph Crispin is in Dorchester, 
visiting her daughter, Mrs. “Thomas 
Abbott. 
We are glad to report that James 
Chane’s condition is improving. See 
account of the accident on another page. 
Miss Bradford has closed her studio 
and has returned to Boston for the 
winter. 
Alex Koerner and Arthur Steinert of 
Lawrence were the guests of Mr. and 
Mrs. H. W. Butler the first of the 
week. 
The Bible class began its work “Tues- 
day evening with ten members. It was 
voted to meet regularly on Tuesday even- 
ings at 7.30 o’clock. The next meeting 
will be at Mrs. Elbridge Foster's. The 
discussion of the aim of life was frank 
and vigorous. A profitable winter’s 
study is assured. 
The Magnolia young people were on 
the bulletin board of the Fishermen’s In- 
stitute for an entertainment Wednesday 
evening. It had to be postponed and 
Wednesday Dec. 9th has been fixed up- 
on. Fred Dunbar is to get up the pro- 
gram. (We learn as we go to press the 
Institute was gutted by fire last night. ) 
The Sunday School elected Mrs. Fred 
Lycett as its superintendent at a business 
meeting last Sunday. “The other officers 
are: Vice president, Miss Alice Story; 
secretary and treasurer, Miss Susan Ly- 
cett; teachers, Mrs. Edgar L. Story, 
Miss Marian Story, Miss Alice Story, 
Miss Amy Lycett, Mrs. Fred Lycett and 
F. J. Libby. 
Pres. M. J. Senenga, the head of our 
youngest college is to speak at the Vil- 
lage church this evening. He is presi- 
dent of the Northland college at Ashland, 
Wis. He isa very interesting speaker 
and will describe in a graphic way the 
work his college is doing on the north- 
ern frontiers among Finns, Poles, Rus 
sian and other northern pilgrims. 
ROAD IMPROVEMENTS 
The plans for improving the Mag- 
nolia avenue road and the changes made 
necessary in abolishing the dangerous 
crossing at the Lily pond have gone 
through and the work will be carried out 
before another season. “The new road 
will go under the railroad near the old 
Bray house. ‘The railroad is standing a 
big share of the cost in building the new 
road, the state will pay 25 per cent, and 
the city the balance. 
Colonel Sohier, the Beverly road 
builder, whose devotion to the cause of 
good roads, especially in the country dis- 
tricts and woods, amounts almost to a 
passion, will start in next week on a 
piece of work which he is to do gratis 
for the city of Gloucester. He will 
bring his roadbuilding machinery. and 
employes down to the junction of Has- 
kells Pond road and Essex avenue and 
will work from there up towards the 
Fssex line, repairing the roadbed 
thoroughly and putting it into shape to 
withstand the rigors of the winter wear. 
Mayor Parsons, who has been con- 
ducting the negotiations with Colonel 
Sohier, which Jed up to his deciding to 
go ahead with the work, feels quite grat- 
ified at having secured the colonel’s 
promise totake up the work—Cape Ann

Claims Sustained 
UNITED STATES COURT OF CLAIMS 
ne Publishers of Webster’s International 
Dictionary allege that it ‘*is, in fact,the popu- 
lar Unabridged thorourchly rc-edited in. every 
detail, and vastly enriched in every part, with 
the purpose of adapting it to mect the larger 
nee severer requirements of another genera- 
ion.’ 
We are of the opinion that this allegation 
most rile and accurately dcsceribes the 
work that has been accomplished and the 
result that has been reached. Tho Dictionary, 
as it now stands, has been thoroughly re- 
edited in every detail, has been corrected in 
bat part, and is admirably adaptcd to nicet 
the larger and severer requirements of a 
generation which dcmands more of popular 
philological knowledve than any generation 
that the world has ever contained. 
It is perhaps neediess to add that we refer 
to the dictionary in our judicial work as of 
the highest authority in accuracy of dctfini- 
tion; and that in the futureas inthe past it 
will be the source of constant reference.
