In THis WeEeEk’s Issur. of the Breeze-Reminder is 
ae a complete directory of the people summering on 
the North Shore and all changes in occupancy of the 
various estates and cottages from Nahant to Gloucester, 
insofar as several weeks of research have made it possi- 
ble, are included in the list. Thus early in the season ‘it 
is not possible to obtain all of the late rentals, but from 
the Shore real estate dealers, hotel-keepers and others a 
practically complete list has been secured. All of the reg- 
ular seascn guests at the hotels are included in the di- 
rectory, although it has not been possible to obtain full 
lists of those co ning to the hoteis for shorter periods 
than the entire season. This directory should be very 
ielpful to everyone interested in the North Shore and it 
has been with the aim to furnish a ready reference guide 
to everyone living on the Shore that the list has “been 
compiled. 
In THe NEAR Future the good roads system along 
the Massachusetts shore will have been completed. From 
Woods Hole to Rockport the roads are well constructed 
and are always kept in good repair. except a stretch of 
road connecting Blue Hill Avenue (Morton Street), and 
the Fenway Boulevard, the roads connecting with Har- 
vard Bridge and the Felsway and Bridize Street in Salem. 
Work 4s: already being done on Merton Street. There 
is a bill in‘the legislature for the construction of a broad 
parkway boulevard connecting Harvard Bridge and the 
Felsway and the City of Salem is working out the Bridge 
Street problem and in the course of a few. years a seventy 
or ninety foot boulevard will have been constructed: When 
these three roads are reconstructed there will be.a beauti- 
ful road system extending from Rockport to Woods Hole. 
Tre MExIcAN SITUATION seews to be less embarass- 
ing. Despite t the fact that President Wilson has been un- 
fortunate in havinz Brvan “to handle.” affairs are chang- 
ing rapidly and to Wilson’s advantage and credit. The 
Me sxican problem is not sirple-.and most journalists 
should be less critical of the President’s course. It is 
certain, and is of course to be expected, that the Presi- 
dent has at his disposal information that is not available 
even to the most enterprising newspaper syndicate. The 
American people can afford to trust the President even 
though he be a Democrat. Wilson has been able to avert 
war so far and this is to his credit. 
Mr. Trroporr Rooskvevt has arrived home; and it 
is about tive. With President Wilson completing nearly 
one half of his term it is time for the candidates for the 
Presidency to be busy. ‘The future of the Prosressive 
party is in the balance and its destiny lays under the con- 
trol of the personality that brought it into being, The 
destiny of that party is in the fone of the ex- President. 
What will he now do? 
MrMorraL Sunpay is rapidly beconing the real day 
tor memorial exercises and memorial observances. ‘The 
day, May 30, is being usurped by games and spring sports 
to the neglect of the fine sentir ‘ents of the day. yi 
Every ProcresstvE should ponder well Colonel Har- 
vey’s comments on the Progressive Party, “We have’a 
very kindly feeling for the Progressives. We admire and 
respect them. We‘appreciate the way they adhere to 
their conglomeration of principles. Not that we espouse 
their lively doctrines: we care nothing about their odd 
notions, one way or the other. And we do not want 
them to come to us. No, No, we have.all we can clothe 
and feed now. All that we ask of the Progressives is 
to stand pat as independents and keep in helping us 
save the country. We need them in our business, and if 
there is anything we can do by way of encouragement, 
except with offices and contributions, they have only 
to give the familiar call to get all the help we can give, 
without embarassment to ourselves.” In a paragraph the 
folly to the Progressives is skillfully and ironically be- 
trayed. Every thoughtful progressive must realize by 
now that the ultimate success of the Party has been and 
can only be a “cats paw” to aid the democrats to pull 
their chestnuts out of the fire. 
In Beveruy, finally, efforts are being made to sim- 
plify the administration of beneficiary aid. In thre years 
past it has been possible for unscrupulous individuals who 
have learned the -““game” “to work” ‘several charitable 
organizations at the same time. It is proposed to estab- 
lish.a clearing house through which it will be possible 
for any organization to learn if any other organization is 
giving aid to a particular “case.” Such a confidential 
exchange is certain to work for good to the worthy poor 
who need assistance and will conserve funds given for 
poor relief. The Society for the Préventiomromesrelty 
to Children should be commended for their good work 
in inaugurating the plan. The society covers in its work, 
Beverly, Manchester, Essex and Gloucester.

have occurred.

Beverly but they not appear.
