Muel favorable comment has been 
heard since the Bullock bakery fire 
last week as regards the benefits de- 
rived from having night patrolmen 
constantly on duty about town. It 
will be remembered that Night Offi- 
cer Andrews a year or two ago, dis- 
covered a fire in the grocery shop of 
Frank H. Dennis on School street, in 
the nick of time. Officer Sheehan 
‘deserves great credit for his services 
in arousing the neighborhood and 
eiving the alarm for the fire last 
week. Tle displayed great  pres- 
enee of mind in firing his revolver, 
which he did when he discovered the 
seriousness of the situation. It is 
probably due to this act on his part 
that the fire department was sum- 
moned as promptly as it was, and 
the fire was overcome before it had— 
assumed larger proportions. It 
will be remembered by some that 
Frank P. Tenney gave the alarm by 
blowing his cornet at the time of 
the Swett stable fire, some 18 or 20 
years ago. Mr. Tenney at that time 
lived in the house now oceupied by 
Jos. Cawthorne, corner Pine and 
Central streets. 
The Las of the G. A. R., S. of V., 
and W. C. fair has been set for 
August. 36. The committee of the 
three organizations have organized 
with the choice of E. P. Stanley, 
ehairman; Mrs. Hannah Tappan, 
seeretary; Alfred S. Jewett, treas- 
urer; James H. Rivers, collector ; 
Fred K. Swett, auditor. 
The next meeting of the North 
Shore. Horticultural society will be 
held Friday evening, May 6, at 7.30 
o'clock, when C. O. Bailey of the 
State Forester’s office will speak on 
‘“‘Rorestry and Insect Pests and the 
Progress Made in the Parasite 
Work.’’ 
Superintendent of Streets Crom- 
bie and his men are busily engaged 
in putting a hght tar macadam coy- 
ering on Bridge street, beginning et 
the Beverly Farms line, as mention- 
ed last week, to extend to the resi- 
dence of .M. E. Gorman on Bridge 
street; not far from the entrance to 
Norton’s Point: When this stretch 
of road is completed, the tar ma- 
cadam construction will extend from 
the Beverly Farms line to Boyle’s 
stable, Summer street. The work 
laid out for the highway department

The baby show and _ entertain- 
ment to be given in the Town hall 
next Monday afternoon and evening 
under the auspices of the W. R. C., 
has promise of being a very inter- 
esting affair. In the afternoon the 
baby show, coaching parade, and 
May-pole will be held. Admission 
10 cents. In the evening the 
May-pole will be repeated and a 
splendid entertainment will be giv- 
en, including illustrated poems, il- 
lustrated songs and patriotic tab- 
leaux. Admission 10 cents. Admis- 
sion for children will be five cents, 
both afternoon and evening. The 
children taking part in the coaching 
parade will meet in the Town hall 
Saturday afternoon at 2 o’clock for 
practice. 
The work of numbering the 
houses in town is to be started Mon- 
day morning. The selectmen have 
given this work to Charles EK. Wil- 
hams. It will be Mr. Williams’ duty 
to obtain from property owners the 
right to place numbers on their 
houses. Persons will have the priv.- 
lege of paying for their own nun 
bers at the rate of ten cents, al 
though we understand it is not com: 
pulsory. People would probably 
want to own their own numbers in- 
stead of feeling that they are the 
property of the town. This number- 
ing is a step in the right direction. 
It will be a great help to the letter 
carriers in doing their work, .as well 
as keeping the town up to date in 
such matters. 
Thomas A. Baker, who recently 
arrived home from a winter at St. 
Augustine, Fla., will resume his du- 
ties with Bullock’s Bakery next 
Monday morning. He will have 
charge of the Magnolia-Gloucester 
route as usual.

Joseph Levin has taken a five-year 
lease of the store owned by Arthur 
S. Dow in the building next to the

past winter by H. A. Doane as a ear- 
penter shop, and was vacated the 
last week by him. It is being re- 
modeled and will be put in good econ- 
dition for Mr. Levin’s business. He 
will open the first week in May.

Mrs. George D. Howe is offering a 
prize of $10 for the best kept cottage 
garden of annuals and perennials. 
This prize was not given last year, 
although in previous years, consider- 
able interest was taken in cottage 
gardens. It is hoped the people will 
show their interest this year and will 
make known their intention of -be- 
ing in the contest by notifying some 
member of the Horticultural society.

last evening observed the 91st anni-

peared to be a decided lack of men.

rill were the assistant floor directors.
