WENHAM 
Wenham Christian Endeavorers 
held an enjoyable social Monday eve- 
ning. Nathaniel Blanchard, the presi- 
dent, is constantly proving himself to 
be ‘fa hustler” along new lines. The 
society has been of material assistance 
to the church this year. 
A prayer meeting will be held on 
Thursday at 7.30 p. m., when the 
theme will be presented by Charles 
Trow, deacon of a church in Salem 
and son of a former Wenhamite. 
Perley Cummings is acting as chair- 
man of the department of church ex- 
tension, to fill out the year. 
Codperation between the Public 
library and the Congl. church is the 
latest move in Wenham. The church 
gave its old Sunday School library 
to the town. In return the town will 
buy religious books for the public li- 
brary, and will keep a special loan 
box in the church. The church aims 
to circulate only works bearing on 
religious life and work, leaving fic- 
tion, even moral fiction, to the town.

At the Congl. church Sunday morn- 
ing the minister, Rev. F. M. Cutler, 
will preach on the question, ““How 
Old Art Thou?” Sunday School at

will take place at 7, with pictures of 
a wonderful river in China, and what 
is happening along its banks. 
Billy Sunday made a conquest of 
the many Hamilton-Wenham men 
who attend his meeting Sunday after- 
noon. Thirty-five went in the two 
chartered jitneys, and many others by 
train. Some who had allowed one leg 
to drop off the “water-wagon,” now 
stand up and tell that they are back 
again “with both feet.” 
At last the North Shore council, 
Boy Scouts of America, is actually in 
existence. Mr. Butler, a representa- 
tive of the National council in New 
York City, made a special journey to 
Beverly, Monday, and met with the 
officers of the proposed council. Evi- 
dently he liked the looks of the men 
he saw, for before going, he prom- 
ised that. the new charter would be 
issued within “eighteen hours.” The 
office is to be in Beverly; and there 
are now six active troops, with 
others forming. Richard P. Waters 
of Wenham is president; Francis 
Rrown of Salem, first vice-president ; 
Samuel S. Conary of Wenham, sec- 
ond vice-president ; Merton R. Lovett 
ot Beverly, secy. and treas., and 
Charles W. Schaller of Beverly, com- 
missioner. Henceforth the scout 
forces of Wenham, Beverly, Salem 
and Marblehead will operate as a 
unit. 
The Town hall will be in use Sat- 
urday evening, Dec. 23, by the boys 
and girls of Wenham. On several 
occasions a score or more of years 
ago, “community Christmas trees” 
bore fruit in Wenham. This year 
the fine old custom is to be revived, 
and there will be something good on 
the tree for every child resident in 
any part of the town. Invitations 
are to be extended through the pub- 
lic schools. Gathering at 7 p. m., the

rounds. In connection with this com- 
munity tree, the classes of the Congl. 
Sunday School will each send some 
kind of a Christmas greeting to one 
aged or sick person in town. There 
are enough classes so that each such 
person will be remembered. Albert
