WENHAM 
Small matters like the weather can- 
not seriously interfere with boy scout 
plans. On Friday, the day of their 
drama, old Pluvius was doing his 
very worst. But so many friends had 
_ kindly purchased tickets in advance 
that the lads felt justified in going 
nv ara Bee eae 
the weather cleared, and one hundred 
fhiity people were able to enjoy the 
performance. The boys felt that they 
had lived up to the title of their play, 
an sotrenuous. Afternoon.” Inci- 
dentally the day brought $35 to their 
camp fund. Principal parts were 
taken by Robert Jones with his burnt 
cork moustache, Roger Knowlton 
with the “farmer” whiskers, Warren 
Sawyer in the “tough” costume, 
Arthur Jones, and Earl Phillips. 
Samuel Conary acted as stage man- 
ager. 
Last Thursday was marked by a 
very pretty and pleasant reception in 
the Town hall, given by the officers of 
the Village Improvement society to 
the members and their husbands. 
The hall was charmingly decorated, 
the refreshments in the best of taste, 
the music excellent, and every detail 
testified to the skill and interest of 
thosé who made the plans. In the 
receiving line were Miss Helen Burn- 
Pampepresident; Mrs. J. B. Pickett, 
vice-president; Mrs. W. F. Trowt, 
treasurer; and Mrs. T. J. Cooledge, 
secretary. Plans of the new tea 
house were exhibited. The tea house 
itself, is beginning to take form and 
be visible. 
At least one deer was seen in .Wen- 
ham during “deer week.’ As usual 
the one who saw the animal did not 
have a gun. 
At the Congregational church Sun- 
day morning the minister, Rev. F. M. 
Cutler, will preach on “Speaking a- 
good word for Jesus Christ.” — Sun- 
day School at noon, Junior C. E. at

'm. service will be under the manage-

and will include a stereopticon lec- 
ture on “Springtime in Japan,” being 
held in the large auditorium.

will hold their monthly meeting and 
supper. 
Wenham is proud to have her dts- 
tinguished resident, Dr. J. C. Phillips, 
as her representative in  British- 
French Red Cross work abroad. Dr. 
Phillips left on Nov. 15, with the 
second Harvard unit.
