Manchester sewers will be open 
and ready for business on April 10, 
it is announced. 
X-X-X 
It is very evident there are some 
dissatisfied with the action of the 
town at the meeting last month rela- 
tive to sewer assessment. There was 
and is now, a felling that there 
should be no special tax in connec- 
tion with the sewers, but that the 
entire expense should be borne by 
the town out of the regular tax levy. 
The argument seems to be that the 
sewers were put in for the benefit of 
the general health of the whole town, 
and therefore the whole town should 
pay the bills. However this may be, 
a motion will be offered at the ad- 
journed meeting next Tuesday even- 
ing to rescind the former motion, and 
it is tnderstood,a “yes” and “no” 
ballot vote will be taken on the ques- 
tion.

Also— a “yes” and “no” ballot 
vote will he asked for on the ques- 
tion of appropriating money to con- 
tinue the improvements at Masco- 
nomo Park. The town voted (on a 
two-thirds vote) not to appropriate 
any money for this purpose this year, 
in the line of economy, but this vote 
also will be up for rescinding.

April gets its name from Venus, 
who was the Lillian Russell of 
mythology. She married Vulcan, 
and the weather we have in April 
fairly typifies the way they get along. 
Vulcan was the first business man. 
He did a general vulcanizing and re- 
pair business on the Appian Way, and 
was busy at the shop from morning 
till night. When things went well 
at the shop, he had no objection at 
all to going home and finding his 
wife dressed up to go out. He felt 
like going out himself. Nighting- 
gales sang in the conservatory, the 
sweet fragrance of the Egyptian 
lotus was borne through the house 
by balmy winds, and Vulcan wrote 
checks like a drunken sailor. He was

a typical business man of the more 
forceful type, and strongly resembled 
Charles M. Schwab. Cupid was their 
son. The spectacle of Vulcan bound- 
ing Cupid on his knee, while the 
loveliest of all women sat on the arm 
of her husband’s chair and pressed 
her cheek against his, was called the 
most peaceful and restful on Olym- 
pus. It was exactly like those 
bright days in spring when the gard- 
en grows, when the white cherry 
blooms are breaking out, and the 
thoughts of young folk turn to love. 
But, like April, there was anothe1 
side. Vulcan would sometimes not 
have a good day at the shop. The 
ren would not get the right consis- 
tency in the rubber, or something of 
that kind. Probably the business 
lost money. At such times Vulcan 
went home with thunder in his face. 
So far from being that lovely crea- 
ture whom all the gods had coveted 
for themselves, his wife struck him

A trial of 
as a butterfly and a bridge player. 
On such occasions things danced in 
Vulcan’s house. The neighbors were 
terrified by his great voice uplifted 
in rage. There would occasionally 
be a terrific bang. Cupid hid in the 
dog house. A_ storm, everybody 
said. Thus April typifies the most 
romantic marriage in history. The 
Romans said the analogy was _ per- 
fect—even to All-Fool’s Day, when 
they all said at the wedding only 
beautiful things——Clark McAdams.
