The School committee, at their 
meeting this week voted to change 
the course at the High school from 
four to five years, the first class be- 
ing known as the sub-Freshmen. 
This change will go into effect next 
year. It is in line with the plan as 
outlined in Supt. Mackin’s annual 
report, as is, we believe, in the line 
of progress. 
Rey. and Mrs. Quint and child 
have returned to Brunswick, Me., 
after a short visit with Mrs. Quint’s 
parents, Mr. and Mrs. EH. A. Lane, 
Vine street. 
George E. Willmonton, the well 
known insurance agent of this town, 
was interested in the Hamilton fire 
to the extent of $28,650, which rep- 
resented the losses insured through 
him, all of which have been satisfac- 
torilly adjusted. 
A patriotic entertainment will »e 
given in the Town hall on Tuesday 
evening, April 19, under the auspices 
of the Baraca class of the Baptist 
church. The Rev. E. H. Brewster of 
Norwood will give an address on 
“The Better America.”’ 
Miss Marjorie Sargent is to clerk 
at Campbell & Hinchliffe’s the com- 
ing season. 
J. P. Lations is able to be out 
again after a severe attack of grippe 
This morning three carloads of 
rich Vermont loam arrived in town 
to be used on the Mrs. W. Scott Fitz 
estate, where Connolly Bros. have 
been making big improvements 
grading around that part of the es. 
tate where the greenhouse is located. 
~!When Peter Paraskeropoulis re- 
turned to the Kettle Cove lunch 
room, which he conducts, on Summer 
street, Manchester Cove, a week ago 
last Saturday evening, he found that 
somebody had been in the build- 
ing during his absence and made 
off with a load of cigars, cigarettes, 
crackers and a pair of shoes. Will- 
iam McGoff, 22, who lived in a 
shanty nearby was suspected and 
Chief of Police Sullivan visited the 
place with a warrant. Some of the 
missing articles were found and Pet- 
er identified them, but the bird had 
flown. <A little detective work re- 
vealed MeGoff’s new headquarters 
in a shack on Pine street, where he 
was arrested Friday by Officers An- 
drews and Sheehan and Special Offi- 
cer Bates. In court, Saturday, Mc- 
Goff was held for the May term of 
the grand jury. 
Annual Meeting of First Parish. 
The annual meeting of the First 
Parish, Manchester, was held Wed- 
nesday evening in the Chapel of the 
Congregational church. Alfred 3S. 
Jewett was elected chairman and 
George Forster Allen, clerk. Mr. Al- 
len has served in this capacity 37 
years, this being his 38th election, a 
record to be proud of. In all these 
years, he says, he has missed but one 
meeting. 
William Hoare, Frank P. Knight 
and Edward A. Lane were elected 
parish committee; A. S. Jewett, 
treasurer and collector; Frank P. 
Knight, trustee Mary C. Martin 
fund, three years; Albert Cunning- 
ham, Dr. R. T. Glendenning and A. 
C. Needham, music committee. 
A gift of $500 was received 
through the will of the late Ezra 
Stanley. A. S. Jewett and J. A. 
Lodge were appointed a committee 
to prepare a suitable testimonial m 
this regard. 
It was voted to continue the pres- 
ent method of assessment on pews, 
and $150 was appropriated for mu- 
sic. It was voted that the minister’s 
salary be $1200 a year, and that four 
weeks’ vacation and free use of the 
parsonage be given the pastor. 
At the Parish meeting, held on 
Wednesday evening last, the treasur- 
er reported that $500 had been re- 
ceived from the brother of Ezra C. 
Stanley, as executor of his will, for 
the benefit of the Congregational 
echureh, in Manchester. It was the 
opinion of those present that some- 
thing more than the acceptance and 
the entry of the same upon the books 
was called for in a matter which, 
to say the least, is one not of fre- 
quent occurrence. To those enjoy- 
ing the intimate acquaintance of Mr 
Stanley this last act of his will be 
taken as a matter of course and 
quite in harmony with his whole 
life. 
From early boyhood, accustomed 
to life as bringing responsibilities as 
well as pleasures, the putting aside 
cf self gratification was not so griev- 
ous a burden, as to one with different 
ideals. 
For many years he was a devout 
and constant worshipper in the 
church he has so kindly remembered 
and doubtless he derived great sat- 
isfaction from the thought that his 
influence would be felt through the 
many years to follow, prompting 
possibly many others to do likewise. 
Simple and unobtrusive, from day 
to day he quietly went about his c- 
customed duties cheerfully perform-
