Janitor Haskell of the Town hall was 
not to be outwitted by the unreliable 
electric lights Monday. Thelights were 
on and off all the early part of the even- 
ing. About 7.10 they went out again 
and the hall was left in total darkness, 
with the voters assembling for the special 
town meeting. After considerable hust- 
ling the gas lights were turned on. 
Though only a small amount of gasoline 
is kept on hand, there was enough to 
keep the hall lighted, throughout the 
meeting, even if the electric juice did 
come on after the gas had_ been lighted.

If Greece and Turkey ever come to- 
gether in battle there will be plenty of 
young men from this country who will 
be in the mix-up before it has progressed 
very far. The Greeks of this vicinity 
have organized military companies and 
are drilling in preparation for what may 
come. The Greeks of Gloucester and 
Manchester, 40 strong, are the latest to 
organize. They are drilling regularly in 
a hall in Gloucester and when the word 
comes they will join with hundreds of 
others to help protect their mother 
country. They will be equally as pat- 
riotic to uphold the honor of this country 
in case an emergency arises. 
Edward W. Baker will inspect the 
Beverly camp, S. of V., this evening. 
The Beverly camp is to muster in 18 
new recruits.
