A ‘“‘Taincoln Memorial”’ service is 
to be held at the Village church next 
Sunday evening at 7.30. The speak- 
er of the evening will be Rev. Wm. 
Mu- 
sic will be furnished by the Young 
America band of East Gloucester, 
led by the oldest son of Arthur 
Wonson. The local members of the 
Grand Army and the Sons of Vet- 
erans have been especially invited 
to be present. 
Misses Mary and Susan Lycett 
and Ruth Scott enjoyed a_ very 
pleasant evening with their former 
schoolmate, Mrs. Fred Davis, at An- 
nisquam, the first of the week. 
The whist party given at Mrs. 
Theresa Knowles’ by the Ladies Aid, 
Thursday evening, was largely at- 
tended, 52 being present. The lad- 
ies met in the afternoon and re- 
mained to supper. In the evening 
the men and children came and play- 
ed whist and various other games. 
Whist lasted from 8 to 10 o’clock, 
there being eight tables, after which 
refreshments were served. All had 
a good time. The occasion netted 
the society $5.65. 
The blocking of a drain in Ray- 
mond street has caused the pond 
back of D. M. Stearns’ blacksmith 
shop to flood and overflow. The 
warm weather and rains which melt- 
ed nearly all the snow has caused 
a great deal of water to flow into 
the pond and the drain being 
blocked, the water rose over Ray- 
mond street in several places and 
has been the cause of much incon- 
venience. 
Hearing on Magnolia Wharf 
At the State House, Tuesday af- 
ternoon a hearing was given by the 
committee on harbor and_ public 
lands on the petition of Horace B. 
Stanton and Joseph Sargent, Jr., to 
authorize the Magnolia Wharf cor- 
poration which was incorporated 
in 1908, to construct a wharf or 
pier a distance of not more than 
160 feet outside of the mean low 
water mark and to maintain a float- 
ing landing at the lower end of it. 
Both Mr. Stanton and Mr. Sargent 
told the committee that the pro- 
posed wharf was necessary in or- 
der to permit yachts making a land- 
ing, which at the present time was 
not possible, due to fear of ground- 
ing. They claimed that a large 
number of yachts owned by summer 
residents are now kept at Glouces- 
NORTH SHORE BREEZE 
ter, with the inconvenience of go- 
ing to and from, to secure them 
when wanted. 
With the wharf extended these 
crafts would be able to land their 
owners and friends at Magnolia and 
boats could be kept im-the harbor. 
They stated there was no known op- 
position to the projected wharf at 
Magnolia. No one appeared in op- 
position. Subsequently in executive 
session the committee voted unani- 
mously to report the bill favorably 
and this was done by Representative 
Elwell of Rockport, who is the see- 
retary of the committee.
