Mr. and Mrs. Thomas B. Gannett of Boston are 
looking forward to the completion of the new home at

It is with regret we report the death of Mrs. Elzo E. 
(Carpenter) Wood, wife of Edward L. Wood, on Sun- 
day, March 28, at her late home 44 Cypress st., Brook- 
line. The family have an attractive summer place, on 
the edge of Singing Beach, at Manchester, and have 
been coming here for many years. Besides a husband 
Mrs. Wood is survived by an only daughter, Miss Eliza- 
beth C. Wood. 
Wadsworth, Howland & Co., Inc., the well known 
paint concern, will move to their new quarters at 139-141 
Federal st., Boston, in the very near future, where they 
will have remarkable facilities for handling their very 
large trade. The new location will also be found very 
convenient by their customers, being very close to the 
heart of the wholesale’ hardware and shopping district. 
They will also retain their present store at 84 Wash- 
ington st., for the convenience of their established trade 
in that vicinity. 
EASTER GIFTS. 
“This is an era of giving and receiving. and Easter 
ranks next to Christmas as a special season for tokens 
of remembrance and love. While in Europe they are 
exchanging bombs, bullets, blows and thrusts of racial 
and political hatred, we of America are swapping 
fragrant floral offerings in a spirit of brotherly love and 
sisterly affection. The presence of even one small flower 
conveys and creates at least a friendly inspiration.” 
These remarks were recently made in a pleasant, 
unassuming manner by Mrs. Thomas J. Clark, who with 
her husband, son and daughter conduct a small but 
beautifully appointed flower store at the corner of 
We Should Smile 
The thing that goes the farthest 
toward making life worth while, 
that costs the least and does the 
most, is just a pleasant smile—the 
smile that bubbles from the heart 
that loves its fellow men will drive 
away the cloud of gloom and coax 
the sun again. It’s full of worth 
and goodness, too, with manly kind- 
ness blent; it’s worth a million doi- 
lars- and it doesn’t cost a cent. 
There is no room for sadness when 
we see a cheery smile. 
has the same good look—it’s never 
out of style; it nerves us on to try 
again when failure makes us blue— 
such dimples of encouragement are 
eood for me and you.

Harmonious Discipline 
The Oliver Ditson Company stores in Boston, New _ 
York, Philadelphia and Chicago, with their special cor- 
respondents in all the principle capitals of Europe, com- 
prise as a whole what is unquestionably the best organ- — 
ized and most scientific system of business in the world. . 
It has been keeping in perfect harmony and rhythm with 
the march of progress and prosperity for the past eighty 
years, and its present youthful. vigor indicates that, 
like Tennyson’s Brook, the success of the Ditson Com- 
pany would go on and on forever. 
There are nine departments, each of which is dis- 
tinctly indicated by a letter of the alphabet as follows: 
A—sheet music and books, B—musical instruments, 
C—printing, D—editorial, E—bookkeeping, F—the mu- 
sician, G—advertising, H—Victor-Victrola, K—band 
and orchestra music. Each department has its com- 
petent time-tested manager, with a first, second and third 
deputy, each one of whom is practically qualified to 
take leadership in case of the other’s absence, thus 
eliminating the possibility of delays and discord in 
prompt efficient service. For a business involving such 
infinite detail, the system and discipline of the Ditson 
Company is marvelously effective and_ satisfactory. 
Mail orders to any part of the world are frequently 
filled, and in transit within half an hour from the time 
the order-is received. The ten decks of Diston’s, at 
150 Tremont st., are clear for action from 8 a. m. to 
6 p. _m., on any business day of the year, and the char- 
acteristic Ditson greeting is a noteworthy event in one’s 
visit. BABS
