ROMANCE By Marrtace. 
The marriage last Saturday after- 
noon of Miss Helen Rosetta Allen of 
Manchester and Lawrence E. Easter 
of Brazil, Ind., reveals a romance 
which had its inception one night last 
summer, when a party of Manchester 
girls went to Salem Willows and at- 
tended a dance at the casino there. 
Miss Allen is the daughter of 
Charles J. Allen, caretaker of the S. 
V.R. Crosby estate at West Manches- 
ter. She was employed in the local 
telephone exchange the past summer. 
Her husband is a first-class electrician 
on theU.S.S. New Jersey, now at the 
Charlestown navy yard. 
The marriage was 
Charlestown last Saturday afternoon 
by Rev. O. Forbes Hall of the First 
Congregational church. Miss Allen 
slipped into Boston unknown to her 
family or friends “to aftend the thea- 
tre.” Tuesday she left West Man- 
chester for a visit at South Duxbury, 
with the Urquharts, formerly at the 
S. P. Blake estate, West Manchester. 
Even then her father or friends had 
not learned of the marriage, but the 
Boston papers of Wednesday contain- 
ed an account of the elopement. 
In the spring, when Mr. Faster’s 
term of ‘service in the navy is up, he 
intends to return to his home in In- 
performed at. 
diana with his bride. The young peo- 
ple‘s attendants at the wedding were 
Miss Marguerite Boutiluier of Bos- 
ton and West Manchester, and V. 
Leavitte, also of the New Jersey.

As To THE WEATHER! 
A touch of real winter weather has 
been experienced along the North 
Shore during the past few days, the 
sleet storm of Tuesday accompanied 
by a sharp drop in the mercury giving 
the ground an icy covering which has 
resulted in fair sleighing and good 
toboganning. 
The sudden drop in temperature 
during the past two days is but 
another instance of the changeability 
of the New England climate, although 
many North Shore summer residents 
who have journeyed to California and 
the west coast find but little difference 
in the weather there. 
It is apparent that winter is settling 
down to its work in earnest at last, 
eight degrees above zero being the 
surprisingly low temperature record- 
ed in Manchester on Wednesday 
morning. 
Postmaster Wheaton has sent into 
the department at Washington the 
record of business done by the parcel 
post for the first week. The number 
of local packages sent in town were 
5; incoming, 142; total 147. Outgo- 
ing, 287. Average weight, 1 I1-100 
pounds. Postage $29.30. Insured 
packages dispatched, 5. Insured pack- 
ages received, 2. The local business 
is increasing daily. 
Ricut You Arse, Mawruss! 
Cross off a bill you owe a man, 
You owe it still, that’s plain; 
But owe a grudge and cross it off, 
“That’s something else again.”
