A Breeze Reader inquires of us who 
is there of the store-keepers in Manches- 
ter who sells cigarettes to boys, and sug- 
gests that it might be wellto say some- 
thing about the practice in our paper. 
‘There is a society in Boston, we were 
informed, that keeps a sharp look-out for 
such breakers of the law. Our inform- 
ant states that he saw five school boys 
having a “‘ quiet’’ smoke on their way 
to school the other morning. 
At the special town meeting in Man- 
chester next Monday evening the ques- 
tion of purchasing the Manchester Elec- 
tric Co., comes up and the citizens _ will 
be given another opportunity to vote on 
the issue. It is to be hoped that as large 
a number of the voters as possible will be 
out to this meeting so that as complete 
an expression as possible may be obtained. 
Many who voted against the proposition 
before have since expressed themselves 
as favoring the project and that they 
would vote in its favor if brought up 
again. It appears to us that this is a 
NORTH SHORE BREEZE. 
good business proposition for the town 
and that it would be unwise to let the 
opportunity slip by to purchase the plant, 
which is one of the best constructed in 
the state for a small town, and which is 
now on a paying basis. 
A WOMAN went into the shop of 
Charles Bedell, the blind man, on Cen- 
tral street, Manchester, one day recent- 
ly and giving Mr. Bedell a one dollar 
bill told him it was a two and received 
back change for a bill of that denomina- 
tion. 
Now the Breeze has from time to 
time chronicled the progress of the two 
shops established in Manchester the past 
summer,—one by Mr. Bedell and the 
other the ‘“‘ Handicraft Shop for the 
Blind,’’ and our people as a whole have 
manifested much interest in the two 
shops. A great deal of the success of 
such efforts depends, of course, on the 
honesty of people who deal with these 
blind workers, and the implicit confidence 
which the blind must put into people 
dealing with them in order to do any 
business. 
Anyone who takes advantage of this 
confidence placed in the public in gen- 
eral by these blind workers and cheats 
them in the manner as described above 
is of no credit to society. A man or 
woman who would do such an act ought 
to be ashamed of themselves!

Magnolia, Mass., Sept. 23, 1908. 
Editor North Shore Breeze: 
‘* A Friend of the Clubhouse’’ asks 
if “‘ Live and Let Live’’ will tell why 
the new clubhouse should hurt the wel- 
fare of Magnolia? It will hurt it in this 
way,—by taking away the means of 
getting a living from those who are en- 
gaged in taking boarders and lodgers. 
‘Two of these houses are kept by widows. 
Is it right to deprive them of their liveli- 
hood? Perhaps the promoter of the 
clubhouse can devise some way by which 
we may get our share out of it it.

Electric cars for Manchester! There 
ee 2 ” a 
were wild’’ rumors the first of the 
week to the effect that Manchester was 
about to vote on the proposition at a 
special town meeting called for next 
~~ s 
Monday night, for the warrant read plain-- 
ly “* for furnishing light, heat or power 
for the operation of cars of a street rail- 
road company,’’ etc. It seems that the 
constable in copying the original warrant 
omitted one word---‘‘ except.’’? It was 
quickly changed so as to read ““except 
for furnishing light,’’ etc.

More imported bugs portends what? 
All sorts of good devouring things are 
expected of that Japanese parasite of the 
gypsy moth; butlet’s not be too sanguine 
of the excellent result of its proposed 
work. We have tried these bug import- 
ations. “They have been offered to us 
as good goods; their preying qualities 
have been exploited, and lo! deceit 
lurked within them. Landed ina new 
country, under new skies, and presto! 
their mode of meal-getting changed. 
They developed new tastes and new ap- — 
petites and new foraging desires; as eat- 
ing bugs they remain with us, but as pest- 
destroyers—many times in this role they 
never for us existed. This new Japan- 
ese parasite is as large as a match-head. 
Its eggs-laying is supposed to take place 
on the pestiferous caterpillars. 
numbers are large. Forty or fifty eggs 
placed on one caterpillar ought to help 
him on to glory, but bless the exploiters 
of this new moth-destroying thing, they 
say, solemnly, “* it is too early yet to say 
positively whether the parasites are es- 
tablished.’’ There’s no lying or false 
prophet about these men, is there? In 
the meantime we must wait until gentle 
spring puts on her mantle of green before 
we can either laugh or cry or say “‘I 
told you so!’’---Boston Times. 
Mrs. Hannah H. Sampson. 
The egg — 
Yet another of our summer residents — 
has been taken by the hand of death. 
On Sunday, Mrs. Hannah H. Sampson 
of Boston and long a summer resident — 
of Magnolia passed away at the home of fe 
her son, Calvin P. Sampson, on Sum- — 
mer street, in her 91st year. Mrs. 
Sampson was a native of Duxbury, the 
daughter of Gideon and Olive Harlow, 
and was the widow of Calvin C. Samp- 
son of Boston. Funeral services were 
held at Mt. Auburn cemetery Wednes- 
day.
