BEVERLY FARMS 
George Walter Larcom, who is ill 
at the Boston City hospital, is report- 
ed to be in a critical condition. 
Seth Howard Chase, the new super- 
intendent of schools in Beverly, has al- 
ready commenced his duties and is fa- 
miliarizing himself with the school 
affairs of the city. Mr. Chase comes 
here from Tewksbury. 
The annual picnic of the Bible 
school of the Beverly Farms Baptist 
church was held at Centennial Grove 
Tuesday. The weather was ideal for 
the program arranged, and there was 
a large attendance to witness the 
lengthy and interesting list of sport- 
ing events. 
The Beverly Farms nine scored 
another win from the Orioles of Dan- 
vers last Saturday at the Farms play- 
grounds by a score of 1o to 8. Both 
pitchers twirled a good game, but were 
poorly supported. A new man for the 
locals, Herron of the Beverly High 
school team, played at second base 
and put up a star game. The progress 
of the game was hampered by con- 
stant arguments over the decisions of 
the umpire. The Peabody Athletics 
will be the card at the play-grounds 
Saturday of this week. This is the 
only team which has so far defeated 
the home nine. 
Mark A. Kearns, who was elected as 
the new city treasurer at last Monday’s 
meeting of the Board of Aldermen, 
is well-known here and has many 
friends who are pleased at the select- 
ion of the Beverly city fathers. 
Driver John W. Mackey has start- 
ed on his vacation of ten days follow- 
ing the return of Driver John W. 
Morgan, who has been enjoying his 
annual leave of absence. James 
Wright is substituting. 
Mrs. M. F. Fallon and son John, of 
Worcester, arrived at the Farms this 
week for their annual two months’ va- 
cation here. 
Mr. and Mrs. Charles A. Perrin of 
Toronto, Can., have been visitors at 
the Farms the past week. 
A number of Beverly Farms young 
ladies of High school age have recent- 
ly been forming a baseball team. If 
interest in the team continues they in- 
tend to hold regular practice at the 
play-grounds under instruction of a 
coach and play similar teams from 
surroundings towns. 
A visit to the Beverly Farms play- 
grounds will be sufficient evidence of 
the popularity of the place and its 
great benefit to the children of this 
section. Miss St. Clair and Mr. Mur- 
phy, the instructors, are doing good 
work and are organizing many athletic 
teams among the young people.

and stories of the Major’s own exper- 
iences was most interesting and so was 
Capt. Wright’s talk on “The Second 
Gettysburg.” Mr. Pond added a touch 
of realism when after the address by 
Major Higginson he asked all those 
who had fought at Gettysburg to 
stand and four comrades rose in their 
places. ‘This seemed to bring the bat- 
tle closer to every one and put in the 
personal touch. 
The young ladies of the Farms tele-
