The Salem Evening News, with a 
fairness not characteristic of most 
newspapers, has reprinted from the 
Breeze the facts of the story circu- 
lated in regard to an alleged attempt 
to restrict the use of Singing Beach, 
Manchester. The story, faked by a 
Boston paper, was reprinted in sub- 
stance by the News the following day, 
and because of the proximity of 
Salem and the general faith of Man- 
chester people in the News, its ver- 
sion really received some credence. 
The News gave equal prominence to 
the correct version and characterized 
the original story as a “myth, pure 
and simple.” In so doing it has re- 
gained its place in the minds of Man- 
chester people and has done much to 
undo the harm it had an innocent 
part in accomplishing.

The “daylight” pian as in opera- 
tion now in England and France and 
in certain parts of Canada and also 
in some sections of this country, 1s 
not a practical thing, in the opinion 
of Oliver T. Roberts of Manchester. 
Mr. Roberts has recently visited St. 
John’s, N. B., and Halifax, N. 8S, 
where the plan is in operation and it 
was the expressed opinion of people 
of all classes that while in theory it 
seemed feasible and economical, yet 
in practice it was not meeting with the 
best results. The man who under 
ordinary conditions arose at 6 o’clock 
and went to work at 7, returned from 
his day’s labors at 4.30 or 5,-and re- 
tired again at nine or ten o’clock, now 
goes in accordance with the same 
schedule—though the clock has been 
moved back just one hour—except 
that he does not retire on schedule. 
Nine o’clock at night is now eight, 
and it is barely dark. He does not 
go to bed while it is yet light. People 
want to be up and about just about 
so long after dark anyway, and the 
result is that one does not get the 
sleep he usually does.

John H. Cheever recently unearth- 
ed in his garden in Manchester a rare 
old coin, bearing the date of 1723. 
The inscription, “Hibernia,” was 
found on one tee while on the re- 
verse appez ared, “Georgius Dei Gratia 
Rex.”. The denomination or value 
of the money are not known. A 
similar coin bearing the date of 1732 
was recently dug up in Maynard.
