The ‘Long Ford” 
Delivery Trucks 
(Called “Lengthened Fords’’ by some dealers who have only 
old machines to make over) 
are proving wonderfully efficient in many branches 
of business; we have them in absolutely new ma- 
chines, and in second-hand machines; or we will 
lengthen your machine. 
The “Long Fords’’ have the wheel base increased three feet; 
they carry 1500 pounds more easily than the other machines 
carry 1000 pounds. 
The “Long Fords’’ have nearly double the storage capacity and 
carry a very much larger load of bulky goods.

WENHAM 
Wenham boy scouts have been 4°- 
tive during the month. Last Friday 
evening the old scouts of their num- 
ber were entertained at the home cf 
Dr. Flagg, who is now a member of 
the local troop committee. On Sat- 
urday a party of the lads visited Sa- 
lem, seeing the historical sites, the 
museums, the armory, and complet- 
ing the afternoon by visiting the Fra- 
ternity and engaging in a rifle match 
with the Salem boys—and coming out 
victors by a margin of one point. 
Selectman Elmer Clark addresses the 
scouts at this week’s meeting. 
Hamilton and Wenham have an en- 
ergetic and efficient visiting nurse, as 
appears from the annual report dated 
October 31, and issued last week. 
1654 calls were made by the nurse 
during the year, in 347 of which 
medical treatment was given abso- 
lutely without any kind of remunera- 
tion. Death resulted in only two 
cases; cure or marked improvement 
in 140. The committee received 
$1652 from all sources during the 
year, and closes with a balance on 
hand. There are invested funds to 
the amount of $1350. Miss Annie M. 
Sharpe has succeeded Miss Johnston 
during the year and is carrying on 
the latter’s work with the old-time 
efficiency. Mrs. S. Dacre Bush, now 
of Wenham, is chairman of the com- 
mittee, and Mrs. Edward B. Cole is
