Woburn over the week-end. 
The Green and White party, held 
at the Men’s clubhouse, under the 
auspices of the Ladies’ Aid society, 
on the evening of March 17, was a 
great success. The main hall was 
decorated with American and Irish 
flags and was festooned with strings 
of smilax. The majority of the 
guests were in costumes appropriate 
to the occasion, among them being 
‘Mr. and Mrs. L. Hunt, Mr. and Mrs. 
Osear Story, Mr. and Mrs. Edgar 
Story, Mrs. John May, Misses Mamie 
and Sadie Abbott, Misses Marjory 
and Ethel May, P. Knowlton, Ned 
Story, William Hunt and many 
others. A large party came from 
Manchester by barge. Chane’s or- 
chestra furnished good music for 
dancing and the bowling alleys, pool 
and billiard tables, etc., were free. 
The committee in charge of the af- 
fair was Mrs. Oscar Story, Mrs. 
Frank Story, Mrs. John May and 
Mrs. Henry Brown. Oscar Story 
was the artist in charge of the dec- 
orations. Refreshments were served 
by the committee, who report a sur- 
plus of over $30.

The Opera Season. 
With the coming week, Boston’s 
new opera company concludes its 
first season and congratulations are 
in order to all who have been iden- 
tified with it, in any way. The ad- 
mirable fashion in which every- 
thing pertaining to the enterprise 
has been accomplished shows not 
only the liberality of those who took 
the initiative in this matter, but an 
intelligence, good taste and rare 
judgment on the part of all the 
heads of departments, as well as 
faithful services by their employees. 
All doubts as to the future of the 
Boston Opera company have been 
removed by the results of the sea- 
son now ending, the final note of ap- 
proval having been struck by the 
willingness with which the older 
Metropolitan company and the to be 
Chicago company have joined hands 
with the local organization. No city 
the world over can show such a rec- 
ord for a new operatic enterprise 
as that made by the Boston com- 
pany in its first season, and to have 
this record gained without bank- 
ruptey indicates skill in financiering 
heretofore unknown in an operatic 
enterprise in America. All honor to 
Eben D. Jordan and those he has 
associated with himself, in guiding 
the destinies of the Boston Opera 
House. His name will go down in 
the musical annals of this city with 
that of Major Henry L. Higginson, 
as the men who, in their own day, 
and while they could supervise their 
benefaction, have done more for the 
musical advancement of this city 
than any others of their generation.

More Trouble! 
The San Jose scale has increased 
at a very rapid rate in Massachu- 
setts during recent years, so much 
so as to form as serious a menace 
to our orchards as any of the im- 
ported tree pests, and to be vastly 
more dangerous than our native in- 
sects. Where this scale once ob- 
tains lodgment in an orchard it will 
kill the trees in a very few years, 
except they receive careful yearly 
treatments. Its spread is rapid and 
not easily to be guarded against. 
One of the most annoying develop- 
ments of the situation is the spread 
of the scale from the property of 
those who care too little for their 
fruit and ornamental trees to prop- 
erly protect them to that of their 
more eareful neighbors. Many in- 
stances have been brought to the 
attention of the state board of agri- 
culture of orchardists who have been 
put to great yearly expense and been 
subjected to a great deal of injury 
because of the carelessness of their 
neighbors. 
Ample authority exists under 
Chapter 444, Acts of 1909—the 
State Nursery Inspection law—to 
compel offending property owners to 
clear their property of the scale. 
With the purpose of bringing this 
information to the attention of the 
public the board has issued its cir- 
cular number 1, which will be 
sent to any address within the state 
on application to J. Lewis Ellsworth, 
secretary state board of agriculture, 
State House, Boston, giving extracts 
from the law and explaining how 
to set it in motion. Nature leaflet 
number 33, giving directions for the 
treatment of this and other scale 
insects can be obtained in the same 
manner.
