NORTH SHORE BREEZE 
Real Gstate 
And Improvements 
Perkins & Corliss, the well-known 
Gloucester concern, who conducted 
the auto garage on Beach street, Man- 
chester, last season, have leased from 
Samuel Knight the building on Beach 
street, near the railroad crossing, for- 
merly used by C. H. Dennis. They 
will use this in connection with their 
other garage, to handle the extensive 
business which they are building up 
on the North Shore. 
Magnolia 
One cannot realize the amount of 
work Prop. Geo. A. Upton is having 
done’at his cottages and hotel, — the 
Oceanside, at Magnolia, until they go 
and see for themselves. Every year 
he spends thousands of dollars on re- 
pairs and changes; this past fall and 
winter he has been laying out some 
$30,000. Many of his cottages have 
been altered considerably, while the 
hotel has been given such a repairing 
that it looks like a new place. All 
through the fall, and even now, some 
50 mechanics, carpenters, masons, 
painters, etc., have been kept buys. 
One thing that is greatly appreciated 
at Magnolia is the fact that Mr. 
Upton employs, as far as possible. 
only Magnolia workmen to do his 
work. He never seeks help out of 
town until he has exhausted every 
source in town. 
Beverly Farms 
The work of remodelling and chang- 
ing over into an assembly room the 
hitherto unused -basement of St. 
Margaret’s church at Beverly Farms, 
is now practically completed. The 
results obtained are far in excess of 
what was anticipated, to say the least. 
The room was used Friday night of 
last week for the first time, and proved 
a pleasing innovation for the crowd 
who attended the concert. The old 
brick piers have been removed and 
eight staunch columns of iron take 
their place. The ceiling and walls 
are plastered with rough cast, and 
when painted will give the appearance 
of fresco. Considerable sheathing 
has been done, including the encase- 
ment around the windows. There is 
a platform across the upper end of the 
hall and leading off from this is a 
good-sized ante-room. The floors are 
of North Carolina pine. The heating 
is from the present heating apparatus, 
and the place is lighted by electricity. 
The quarters are to be used for church 
entertainments, socials, etc., and will 
be open at all times to members of 
the parish for a reading room. A 
library will be installed, and here also 
will be found the daily papers and a 
variety of magazines. Too much 
praise cannot be given Rev. Fr. 
Walsh for his thoughtfulness in pro- 
viding such an excellent place. 
Manchester 
Ernest C. Lucas has just sold his 
house and 5,700 sq. ft. of land on 
School street and Claremont place, 
Manchester, to Mabel T Willmonton, 
who will at once improve the property, 
and will install modern and up-to-date 
conveniences, including a hot water 
heater. Mrs. Willmonton buys for 
investment. 
The architect was on from New 
York this week in connection with the 
house to be built by Charles Head on 
the land recently bought by him in 
Manchester woods. Ground may be 
broken for the foundations next week. 
Roberts & Hoare have been doing 
considerable work at the E. C. Fitch 
cottage, Norton’s Point. The lower 
part of the house has been practically 
reconstructed. This firm is also work- 
ing on the W. B. Walker garage, to 
be one of the finest garages on the 
North Shore.
