Supt. Lovering of the electric com- 
pany said yesterday afternoon that he 
expected to turn on the electric street 
lights Saturday night for the first 
time, unless something unforseen oc- 
curs. There will be no formal cele- 
bration of the event. Forsooth, may 
we add, it will be quite a celebration 
in itself to have lights, for the streets 
_ have been in partial darkness the last 
week or so, much to the disgust of 
everybody, owing to the wretched 
service of the Welsbach Co., since 
they lost the contract to light the 
streets. 
SIGNBOARDS 
CoRRESPONDENT ALLUDES TO SIGN A‘ 
SINGING BEACH, 
Editor North Shore Breeze :— 
IGNBOARDS are lettered emblems 
pointing the way to Heaven and 
elsewhere. 
I remember seeing at a street cor- 
ner in my native village an advertise- 
ment of “Lydia Pinkham’s Soothing 
Syrup” painted on a_board-fence. 
Later, below it, some fervent Reli- 
gionist had added “Prepare to meet 
thy God,”’—all of which was instruc- 
tive. 
I desire, Mr. Editor, to call attention 
to a signboard situated at the end of 
the short road leading to the Singing 
Beach in Manchester. At the end of 
the road one must, to refurn, drive 
around a sort of half circle thereby 
passing the signboard on which in 
large letters is painted: 
“No vehicle allowed to 
stand in this encircle’ 
It struck me that this use of the 
word encircle was incorrect and gave 
scant justice to the cultivation of the 
dwellers in that vicinity. 
Later, I went for instruction to the 
highest source, the dictionary of the 
English Language by the learned 
Doctor Samuel Johnson, and found 
the following but no similar use of 
the word encircle :— 
To encircle—to surround; to en- 
viron. Encirclet—a ring; a circle. 
“In whose encirclets if ye gare 
Your eyes may tread a lover’s mare.” 
—SIDNEY. 
Possibly the objectionable sign 
could be easily corrected by the ad- 
dition of a T. —C. L. P.
