NORTH SHORE BREEZE 
SALEM Historica, PAGEANT 
The Salem Historical Pageant 
which is to take place in that city 
on June 13, 14, 16 and 17, will be one 
of the most elaborate of its kind ever 
attempted in New England. No less 
than 1500 will take part in the epi- 
sodes to be presented, and a large 
chorus of mixed voices, supported by 
the Salem Cadet band will furnish 
the music. 
Rehearsals have been under way 
for some time and artists and musi- 
clans are at work on the designing 
of costumes and the composition of 
appropriate music. Rare old gar- 
ments of two centuries ago treasured 
by their fortunate possessors and 
concealed in ancient chests for years 
have..been brought to light to lend 
their part to the splendor of the 
pageant. 
The beautiful old estate known as 
Kernwood with its magnificient trees 
and lawns sloping to the water’s edge 
will make a perfect setting for such 
an affair. The Pageant will embrace 
episodes in the history of Salem 
from the time of the coming of Roger 
Conant and followers to the  pres- 
ent day including the ‘“Banishment 
of Roger Williams,” “The Persecu- 
tion of the Quakers,’ “The coming 
of Gov. Gage to hold court in Salem,” 
“The great ball given in his honor,” 
The Commercial Period,’ when Sa- 
lem Merchantmen carried the Amer- 
ican flag into foreign ports, and end- 
ing with a grand Finale in Symbolism 
in which the Salem of Today reviews 
the Past and looks forward to the 
future Ideal Salem. 
Basies’ Hosprra, Tac Day 
Saturday—the last day of May— 
is Tag Day for the North Shore Ba- 
bies’ hospital, which is located at Sa- 
lem, but which extends its service all 
along the North Shore to those who 
need it. Manchester will be “tagged” 
tomorrow, as well as the other towns 
in the vicinity of Salem and _ it is 
hoped that everybody will help the 
good cause along by buying a tag. 
Miss Helen Knight’ will be in charge 
of the work in Manchester and every- 
body will be given a chance to help. 
It ought to be remembered that any 
Manchester family that needs the help 
offered by this institution will derive 
the benefits offered in taking care of 
a sickly baby at the hospital during 
a portion of the hot summer months.

The thing was so chaotic.
