“Rivats For THE TEAM.” 
The latest book of Ralph Henry 
Barbour’s of Manchester, 
for the Team,” has just been issued 
by D. Appleton & Co., New York. 
Like the majority of its predessors 
the book deals with boys’ life at prep 
school. A pleasing tale is woven 
about an English youth who attends 
an American preparatory school, ac- 
quires American  manerisms 
“makes the Varsity” football team. 
It is a clean, wholesome and intimate 
narration of everyday events at a 
boys’ school with a climax in the 
great football game between rival 
prep schools. The story is entertain- 
ingly. told and has the same charm 
for boy readers that the score or more 
of Mr. Barbour’s school-boy stories 
of the past decade have had for the 
American youth.

Farm LoAN ASSOCIATION. 
Plans are under way for the estab- 
lishment in Essex County of one of 
the farm loan associations authorized 
at the last session of Congress by 
what is popularly known as the rural 
credit bill. Under the bill in question 
farm loan associations may be formed 
in the various counties of the country 
to loan money to farmers on their 
land and buildings, crops, etc. These 
loans will be of the ammortization 
type and the money for the same will 
be raised by the sale to the general 
public of bonds, which in a measure 
will be backed and guaranteed by the 
United States government. Under 
the new rural credit law all loans will 
be made for not less than 5 or more 
than 40 years. As loans are made at 
present they are for stated periods, 
usually not over two or three years 
and when the time expires the farmer 
is not always able to repay the loan 
as the banks request. There is a con- 
siderable amount of detailed work to 
be accomplished before a-farm loan 
association can be established in Es- 
sex County, but the matter is having 
attention of the committee on 
agriculture of the Essex County Asso- 
ciated Boards of Trade, of which 
from this vicinity the Beverly Board of 
Trade and Gloucester Board of Trade 
are constituent members. t 
The personnel of the committee 
on agriculture of the county trade 
boards ~is* as follows: Chairman, 
James $. Conlin of Lawrence, Chas. 
F. Allen of Haverhill, Dr. M. F. Sul- 
livan of Lawrence, Henry W. Pelton 
of Lynnfield, Frank. B. Sloan | of 
Saugus, and E. G. Sullivan of Salem. 
This committee has already. held sev- 
eral conferences with the trustees and

“THe SILENT WITNESS.” 
Mary Young, Boston’s most popular 
actress, has become a member of the 
cast of “The Silent Witness,” ‘the big 
dramatic hit at the Plymouth Theatre, 
Boston. Miss Young plays the part 
of Helen Hastings, the mother of the 
boy around whom the story of this ° 
play is built. It is a big part and 
gives great opportunity for emotional 
acting. Miss Young saw the play one 
night last week and expressed a de- 
sire to sometime be able to play this 
particular role. It was promptly of- 
fered to her. Admirers of this pop- 
ular actress -will have a chance to see 
her in one of the biggest parts she 
has ever essayed. ; 
_ The story of “The Silent Witness” 
interests playgoers to an unusual ex- 
tent, and the many dramatic moments 
of the play bring tears to the eyes of 
men as well as women. Particularly 
is this so when the mother is under- 
going inquisition at the hands of the 
district attorney, when she pleads for 
the life of the boy with his “own 
father, whom the mother had sup- 
posed was dead. Henry Kolker, a 
capital actor, gets his big opportunity 
of the play in the last ‘act, when he 
takes the prosecution of his boy out 
of the hands of his assistant and goes 
into court himself and obtain ‘his 
freedom. The boy had been charged 
with the murder of a schoolmate, and 
the man whose duty ‘it was to prose- 
cute him, was his own father, the 
district attorney. see aa |
