NORTH SHORE BREEZE 
Vol. XIII Manchester, Mass., Friday, October 15 
SOCIETY NOTES. 
THE North Shore Branch of the French Wounded 
Emergency Fund has closed its rooms and wish to 
thank the many people who have helped in making the 
Branch such a success. Above all Mrs. Denégre and 
Mrs. Edward S. Grew for allowing the use of their 
coach house in which to carry on the work. To the 
ladies of the Sewing Circle of the Baptist church, Beverly 
Farms, and the North Shore Horticultural society we are 
greatly indebted for the use of their tables during the 
summer, and to Smith’s Express for reduced rates. There 
are many others we would also like to thank, but we 
feel we owe an especial debt of gratitude to Mrs. C. H. 
Perkins of Washington and all her household, who by 
their untiring work and enthusiasm have helped us to 
send a very large number of articles of all description, 
from convalescence robes to Christmas comfort bags for 
the soldiers, each containing from 15 to 20 articles. We 
have sent to the Headquarters since June 24, when the 
Branch was first opened, 104,270 articles—many kinds of 
surgical dressings, pajamas, flannel shirts, sheets and pil- 
low-cases, rubber gloves, socks, sweaters, etc., etc. The 
Volunteer Work Rooms are to be opened on Monday next 
—-Oct. 18—at 304 Boylston st., Boston, opposite Arling- 
ton st. We greatly hope for the continued interest and 
support from our many workers. The rooms will be open 
every day from 10 to 12.30 and 2 to 4.30, except Satur- 
days, when there will be only a morning meeting. The 
North Shore Branch will be in charge on Monday morn- 
ing. The committee: Mrs. Frank Bemis, chairman; 
Miss Harriet C. Rantoul, treasurer, Beverly Farms; Mrs. 
Robert S. Bradley, Mrs. John S. Curtis, Mrs. Henry S.
