We acknowledge with thanks a 
copy of the little booklet just pub- 
lished by the Authors’ Publishing 
Association of Boston, containing the 
entire address of Chas. S. Hanks, de- 
livered before the Boston Chamber of 
Commerce on “The Growth of Cor- 
porate Wealth and its effect upon us 
as Individuals.” Mr. Hanks is now 
having published a book entitled 
“Our Plymouth Forefathers,’’ which 
is to be sold as a subscription book at 
$2.50 a volume. 
Boom Manchester! We very gladly 
fall in line with the sentiment of the 
article in last week’s Manchester 
Cricket, and say ‘“‘boom Manchester.” 
Not particularly because we think 
Manchester is falling behind and 
needs booming, but because the good 
things said of and done by a town or 
a community, as in the case of an in- 
dividual, cannot fail to do good. Man- 
chester is gaining a reputation the 
world over as one of the prettiest 
spots in the country. Some of the 
most prominent people in the country 
come here to spend the summer 
months. But we want more of them. 
Now that practically all the seashore 
property is taken up, we should make 
an extra effort to place our hills and 
wooded property away from the shore 
on the market. This has already been 
done in many cases. Every wood 
drive opened up, too, helps the town 
just that much. Money spent in this 
way must surely bring returns sooner 
or later. 
Another way in which Manchester 
can give itself a good boost, is to look 
out for its beaches. People come 
here from all over the country and 
exult in our excellent sea views, our 
beautiful beach and -the delightful 
bathing. But many wonder that 
there is no pavilion at the beach,—no 
public. bath-house. Our board of 
park commissioners have moved very 
wisely in this matter and they are to 
present plans at the adjourned Town 
Meeting that will call for a combined 
bath house and pavilion that will be 
115x45 feet. We do not know just 
what the estimated cost of this is, but 
whatever the cost—assuming that it 
is right—we believe the town should 
adopt the plan and instruct the com- 
missioners to erect a building. We 
believe that an attractive building 
would more than earn its cost in good 
advertising for the town within a few 
years. It would help to boom Man- 
chester. 
Whatever may be the attitude of 
the voters of Manchester in regard 
to the appropriations called for in the 
report of the water commissioners 
in regard to the additional supply, 
we feel that this matter should receive 
the gravest consideration on the part 
of the voters. The appropriation 
committee, who go over these matters 
carefully and we believe conscien- 
tiously, recommend that $35,138.50 
be appropriated to carry out the plans 
of the committee, and the matter will 
next be put up to the voters for 
action. A good many people are 
talking about booming Manchester. 
Now there is no better way to boom 
a town than in holding out such at- 
tractions as this,—namely, good water 
supply. True it is, the town has voted 
considerable money already this year, 
but the committee very wisely recom- 
mends that only $5,138.50 of this 
amount be paid this year, the remain- 
ing $30,000 to be raised by three 
notes of $10,000 each. This thing 
has been talked of for some time; 
now is the time to act. 
WHISPERINGS 
Mr. John W. Marshall of Manches- 
ter, has quite an interesting relic in 
two black buttons, about the size of a 
quarter, which were worn on a coat 
by his great uncle, the late Captain 
John Marshall of Beverly, at the cor- 
onation of Queen Victoria. On one 
of the buttons is worked a crown and 
on the other the letter “V.” Captain 
Marshall was one of the best known 
sea captains in his day sailing from 
Salem. At the time of the coronation 
he was on a voyage to England and 
was among the Americans honored 
by an invitation to attend the great 
event. The coat he wore was a sort 
of black broadcloth, with high velvet 
collar and on it were these buttons 
made especially for the occasion.

The “Brainstorm Cocktail” is the 
new drink that has come to occupy 
an important position on upper Broad- 
way, New York. It was invented by 
some thirsty wanderers who were see- 
ing New York from the top of a 
water wagon. This is it: ‘Take a 
very tall glass—Pittsburg glass pre- 
ferred ; chop a lot of the ice very care- 
fully. Place ice in glass and let it 
Thaw.”
