ZONING AND TRAFFIC LAWS
Ordinance Regulating the Former
Passed Last Winter Although Well
Considered May Be Amended by
Majority of the Municipal Council—
State Should Take Over the Admin-
istration of Both These Problems
In the last days of December the
Municipal Council passed a zoning or-
dinance. A committee of citizens
aided and abetted by an expert in
such matters had devised and reported
the plan.
They recommended the obvious. No
one familiar with the city and its
needs would have had much difficulty
in outlining such a plan in the rough,
even after a cursory survey of a week
or less.
In the main it restricts business to
the center of the city—manufacturing
and commercial enterprises where al-
ready established remaining—includ-
ing the entire wharf frontage in the
East Gloucester section.
It debarred such business adven-
tures as hot dog and similar stands in
the residential sections except that it
allowed those already established to
remain.
What is of vital interest to summer
residents, the territory given over for
summer residential purposes was ful-
ly protected against further encroach-
ment of undesirable enterprises such
as have given offense and caused con-
troversy in the past. It was well con-
sidered and framed.
According to its provisions the in-
spector of buildings first passes on
building permit applications. If any
are dissatisfied with his decision they
have recourse to a board of appeals—
a committee of citizens outside the
Municipal Council, seven in all, who
have the power to reverse, if they de-
sire, the verdict of the building inspec-
tor. If any party is still dissatisfied
he has a third recourse back to the
Municipal Council, but if one member
objects he is still barred. After that he
may go to the courts. It would appear
that these provisions are fairly ample
safeguards.
But back of all this is a joker which
permits the nullification of these pre-
vious decisions by a majority decision
of the Municipal Council—a body of
taxpayers and bear the burden.
Think it over.
community patriotism.

activity more than politics, is the
theory that self-preservation is the
first law of nature more strongly ex-
emplified. Politicians reason only in
terms of votes, and where a hundred
votes one way or the other may con-
tinue him in office or relegate him to
the discard he is apt to jump to the
side which has the biggest voting guns
to fire election day. No matter how
competent an official or worthy a
measure it has to walk the plank if
political expediency so requires it. So
it has proved in this case of the ordi-
nance. It is India rubber elastic.
Personally we do not think the sum-
mer resident section is endangered
under the present dispensation al-
though the business area has been
thrown into parts of the summer ter-
ritory originally exempted by such
process of amendment. With all its im-
perfections, its adoption is a step for-
ward, the principle having been recog-
nized and that step forward was not
achieved without effort.
But The Shore is convinced that this
zoning ordinance and the traffic reg-
ulation ordinances to be effective, and
saved from selfish and political caprice,
should be either in the hands of a
county or state board, preferably the
latter, where once established, the per-
sonal contact and pressure of interest-
ed parties for their abrogation will be
a matter of difficulty. Regardless of
what may be said of home rule, which
in many analyses is not the best rule,
these two problems, in order to be effi-
ciently met, must be removed from lo-
cal influences.

Since this was written we notice
that the State officials are advocating
a uniform system of traffic laws
throughout the state. This at once
commends itself as the only logical
manner of dealing with this question,
especially for the guidance of outside
tourists who are mystified and con-
fused by the many conflicting munici-
pal rules governing the matter. By all

Well Considered Report By County
Engineer—Eight Possible Bridge-
heads’ Indicated—That Following
Old Upper Parish Road to Biskie Is-
land Across River to Ferry Street
West Feasible and Least Expensive
Perhaps the outstanding highway
or any improvement which forces it-
self upon the attention of the real es-
tate sojourning summer resident of
Cape Ann is that of a second entrance
to the city.
In early colonial times the original
entrance was by way of Essex to the
West parish down Concord street across
a causeway to Biskie, now Russ or An-
nisquam Island, thence across the riv-
er by ferry to Hodgkins’ landing, now
Ferry street, which connects with
Washington street at the Addison Gil-
bert Hospital grounds. In those days
the central part of the town was in
that locality.
After 1750 the center of things was
transferred to the harbor and a short
cut resulted by continuing down the
parish to the seashore over what is
now the Essex avenue causeway across
the Cut or Blynman bridge, and just
before the Revolution it became the
principal and only thoroughfare into
the town, the ferry being discontinued
after a hundred years, always operat-
ed by a Hodgkins. So much for that.
The canal which the bridge spans
has been frequently widened and
dredged, making a short cut between
Gloucester and Ipswich Bay, saving 15
miles to the fishermen. Since the
shore gill netting and other branches
of the fishery have attained such im-
portance in recent years, larger and
larger draft craft avail themselves of
this passage, the drawbridge spanning
it being raised many times in the
course of the day, seagoing craft hav-
ing right of way through navigable
waters.
In this day of the multiplicity of
the automobile this raising frequently

for several years past parking regula-

THACHER’S ISLAND
BY DR. THOMAS J. PARTRIDGE
Note—Dr. Partridge is a Gloucester boy re-
siding in Greater Boston. ‘The poem was writ-
ten when he was a young man.

That cast your lurid warnings far out for
many a mile.
To warn the hardy mariner of the jagged rocks
so dread,
Who safely into
harbor by your
lights is led.

How sad to part from, one who has proved a

Or wave adieu to loving ones| who come to sa

Thud must the sturdy fisher feel as he leaves
thee far astern
Bound off for Georges stormy bank
perhaps
never to return.
Majestic forms! you rear your lordly heads as
if to emphasize
The great and glorious good that’s done by thy
two fiery eyes.
And when the golden sun is hid by Bond’s
rocky side
You throw them far o’er the sea from Boone
Island to Cape Cod.
With what an anxious beating heart have
fishers watched for thee,
When almost home from the Grand Bank, or
Fundy’s stormy sea.
By signs, log, compass and by chart and reck-
oning they knew,
That Thacher’s welcome twin lights must soon
come into view.
Art and Dramatic
THE NORTH SHORE THEATRE
' Starting Sunday for four days
it is our pleasure to present to
the people of Cape Ann one of the
finest pictures of this or any
other year, “Ramona,” with Do-
lores Del Rio. Hail Dolores Del
Rio’s initial starring vehicle for
United Artists. Coming as an un-
known in her first picture—the
Mexican beauty astounded the
world in “Resurrection.” Since
then, her every appearance has
been a sensational triumph. In-
genue, vampire, comedienne, tra-
gedian—Dolores Del Rio _ has
earned her right to greatness!
The book is Helen Hunt Jackson’s
perennial best-seller—now in its
92nd edition! A tale of California
in the days when gold was being
filehed from the earth! When his-
tory was being made! Hail the
romance of the half-breed girl
and her Indian lover. One of lit-
erature’s supreme classics! “Ra-
mona” is going to be a certain
success!
On the same bill we will pre-
sent Walter Hagen, Johnny Har-
ron and Gertrude Olmstead in the
Tiffany production, “Green Grass
Widows.” Fun and romance on
the golf green, where Cupid sub-
stitutes mashie and niblick for
bow and arrow—and Walter Ha-
gen gives up a game!
On Thursday, Friday and Sat-
urday it is our pleasure to pre-
sent the great Paramount spe-
cial feature, “The Street of Sin,“
(Continued on page 22)
Witching as only mortals watch when they
know the port is near,
That holds within its sacred walls all they
treasure dear.
And when ati last their eye doth rest upon thy
garnished domes,
Then bubble up four English words—wife, chil-
dren, rest and home.

THE LITTLE THEATRE
From Ibsen to light comedy is
indeed a long stride, but accom-
plished with the utmost dexter-
ity by a troupe of players such
as those at the Theatre on Rocky
Neck.
The three plays of Friday and
Saturday evenings were light, hu-
morous sketches of ordinary
everyday life. Events such as
might happen to any one, inci-
dents which may have been in the
lives of our nearest friends. Hu-
man nature stories, all of them.
“Myr. Sampson,” by Charles Lee
is a tale of how two women give
up their only chance for happi-
ness because of the absurdity of
convention, carried to the extreme.
Frances McCune and Ruth Jeter
admirably portrayed the charac-
ters of the two spinsters, while
Mr. Sampson, their boarder, was
exceedingly well played by Rob-
ert Wetzel.
“The Dear ~Old ~Bhing,”” by
Frank Mansur, who will long be
remembered as “Pastor Manders”
by Little Theatre goers, is a pa-
thetically humorous sketch of a
country father who arrives at the
home of his city daughter-in-law
on the eve of a gala event. What
follows needs no comment. The
play is mostly dialogue, and the
lines are replete with meaning.
The parts of Lucille, the daugh-
ter-in-law, and Joe, her husband,
were well executed by Margaret
McCarty and Ted Osborne, while
Alfred Child, Jr., played Dad
Dunham, the country father.
“Mary’s Lamb,” by Hubert Os-
borne, has for its setting a cor-
ner in a Broadway cabaret, for its
characters, a pair of Greenwich
Villagers and its plot, lamb stew.
Scott Wilson and Peggy Leland
were typical Villagers, true to
form in every respect, and they
were well supported by the other
members of the cast.

The name Wingaersheek as applied
by various social and other organiza-

years is purely fanciful and there is
not a scintilla of evidence for its use as
an Indian name as will appear later on.

“Wee-Go-See” aboriginal name for
Cape Ann, it was explained was an
Abenaki word (branch of the Algon-
quins) meaning the place where we
camped, a probable explanation of the
word ‘“Wingaersheek.”’
Some weeks later we received a let-
ter from a lady who expressed great
surprise at this statement writing that
a person “well versed in the Indian
authority on the lore and legends of
his race, in relation to the word Win-
gaersheek. He stated that there is no
such word in the Abenaki language
(the tribe that occupied Cape Ann
prior to its being wiped out by disease)
the nearest being ‘“‘Wee-go-see,”’ mean-
ing the place where we camped, which
might, of course, be refined into the
euphonious Wingaersheek.

called the Indians and mortally wound-

treat to their boats and of course had
no opportunity to ascertain anything
in regard to the natives except that
they were fierce fighters—the first who
had driven the sea wolves from their
shores. When Champlain came here
in 1606 he tarried two days, made a
map of the harbor and gave quite an
account of the topographical aspect of
the country and of his dealings with
the Indians whom he interviewed, by

ord to authenticate the name Wingaer-
sheek nor does it appear in print or
writing until about 1800, two hundred
years after the settlement.
In Pringle’s History, page 16, occurs the
following: ‘“Annisquam,” the designation of
the northern section of the cape, first occurs
in Wood’s map of 1634, and is spelled Ana-
squam and in Josselyn’s “Account of Two
Voyages in New England” in 1638, the spell-
ing is “Wondosquam.” But in neither is the
word “Wingaersheek” or any other designa-
tion applied to the harbor and it is the opin-
ion of Indian antiquarians that Anasquam or
Wondosquam are Indian words, for which the
annalist and the cartographer had good war-
rant, for these explorers carried Indian in-
terpreters familiar with the coast, and was the

H, Little River and meadows.
Indian term for the whole of what is now
Cape Ann. Therefore, there is the best of
warrant for the use of the word Annisquam
or Wonasquam as may be preferred. And it
is the only Indian designation for the Cape
that has come down to us and only because
of the research of these explorers noted.
Various surmises have been made as to the
origin of the word Wingaersheek. The In-
dian words “winne” and “wonne” are said to
mean something pleasant and the word
“Squam” a breaking water beach, the combi-
nation giving “a beautiful breaking water
beach.” Plausible enough when the sur-
roundings are taken into consideration.

When the Dorchester colony made
the first permanent settlement in 1623
there was not a solitary Indian on the
soil Where Champlain 17 years be-
fore found a settlement of some 500
Indians none remained. Only great
mounds of clamshells along the banks
of what is now Squam River told of
the former presence. In 1615-17 a
pestilence thought to be small pox—
the white man’s contribution—literally
ran riot among the New England Indi-
ans especially those near the seashore

BASS ROCKS
OLFING continues to grow in
popularity. More and more
are taking up the ancient
sport of kings and in point of
actual participation it is by
far the national game.
Funny about golf! Back in
the nineties some one introduced it in-
to this country. Few knew how to pro-
nounce the word and a very few on
this side knew how to play the game.
In that brief period it has grown in-
to tremendous vogue. There is nothing
to parallel it in the annals of sport.
Another old English diversion the
writer would like to see more popular
hereabouts is archery. A_ splendid
sport essentially that of a gentlewo-
man or gentleman. The cost of an out-
fit is moderate and many fields and
closes are available hereabouts on
which to place targets.
William Scott Law, the professional.
instructor at the Bass Rocks Golf Club,
will deliver five ‘Practical Talks on
Golf’ in the ballroom of the Hotel

after which the _ indications are

as usual will be the center of most of

MY LADY GOES SHOPPING
No News of Jack—More Discussion
Concerning the Mysterious Unknown
—Shopping—The Stranger Speaks
Consternation reigned our ordinarily
peaceful little group on the Cape Ann
Shore. A week had passed with no
word of Jack. A week fraught with
anxiety, vibrant with suspense. He
had simply disappeared, leaving abso-
lutely no trace, and we were powerless
to act.
Our first move, instigated by the
less-excitable Chubby, had been an ef-
fort to locate Jack’s car, which several
of us had seen being driven down the
Main street of Gloucester by a totally
unknown man. Descriptions‘ of the
thief varied too much to give credence
to the ideas of any particular one of
us; Marion thought he was a large
man, Gay was sure he was extremely
small. Jimmie remembered him as be-
ing dark, I myself recalled distinctly
the fair profile of the man in the car.
And so it was useless to attempt the
tracing, not to mention the identifica-
tion of such a person, although each
of us was sure he would recognize the
man in a second encounter.
“I think he’s kidnapped, and is be-
ing held for ransom,” Marion declared.
It was early afternoon, and the Clan
was gathered on Marion’s porch for its
customary conclave. Oblivious of Mar-
ion’s very good porch furniture, which
of course was cf the National House
Furnishing Company, the band was
grouped about the shady veranda
steps, indulging only in the luxury of
a mass of soft, vividly-hued cretonne
cushions which had originated in the
House of Patillo.
“Then why,’ asked Peggy, resting
languidly against a pillar and contem-
plating thoughtfully the Paul Revere
hand-wrought lantern above the door-
way, “then why haven’t we heard any-
thing from the kidnappers?” Which
was a piece of logic not to be denied.
“My theory,’ ventured Chubby
from his official position at Peggy’s
side, ‘is that Jack’s disappearance has
much to do with our Man of Mystery.
No direct communication, perhaps.
That would be impossible. Neverthe-
less, there is a connection and a baf-
fling one.”
“IT agree with Chubby,” remarked
Doctor Landis from the edge of the
group. “From my own personal and
somewhat puzzled observations of the
case, it seems highly probable. The on-
ly one, in my opinion, who can throw
light upon the matter, is the one who
maintains complete and utter silence.
His story, if he could talk, might be a
revelation.”
Here at Ovington’s are scores
of prizes that pay fitting tribute
to the deed without exacting un-
due tribute from the exchequer.

Cape Ann Shore, July 21, 1928.
“Can’t you make him talk, Doc?”
asked Jimmie.
The doctor shook his head. “No sur-
gery can alter that condition,” he re-
plied. “The man is suffering from se-
vere shock, similar to the shell-shock
the soldiers received during the war,
perhaps, which only time and his own
nervous system can correct.”
“But how soon will he become him-
self, Doctor?” asked Marion. “Surely
you have had similar cases before.”
“Somewhat,” was the reply, “though
this is by far the most interesting.
And as to the duration of his ‘illness,’
I would not venture to guess. He may
recover tomorrow, and then again, his
recovery may require months. One can-
not tell.”
“Do you suppose,” asked Gay, half-
fearfully, ‘‘do you suppose that some-
body, somebody who wishes to hurt us,
has been lurking about here for the
past week, and accidentally heard Jack
speak of identifying the bill-fold of
Monsieur X?”
“What bill-fold?” inquired Chubby
and the Doctor simultaneously. And
Peggy explained to them about finding
the empty cod-fish skin wallet in the
Unknown’s coat and Jack’s determi-
nation to take it to Blanchard’s in
hopes of finding a clue.
“Possibly,” remarked the Doctor, at
the end of Peggy’s recital, “but not
probably. The evidence, as in all good
detective stories, is too strong. I doubt
very much if the bill-fold enters into
the problem.”
The men were more or less inclined
to agree with the Doctor’s viewpoint,
but the girls were loathe to give up so
romantic, and to them, so undeniable
a theory.
“At any rate,” suggested Peggy, ris-
ing, “‘let’s all drive over to town and
settle the matter. We can easily find
out if Jack went there at all a week

And so we set off again on a new pil-
grimage, leaving the Doctor, who
would not leave his patient, and Chub-
by who decided to remain with him.
“Though I would enjoy a frappe at
Barker’s,’” he remarked ruefully, as
we Re purted’
It was an exceedingly warm morn-
ing, and the ocean breeze, as we drove
along the shore, was delightful. We
decided to let Gay and Jimmie make
the inquiries about Jack, while the rest
of us trooped off in all directions, each
bent on his own particular shopping.
Marion had heard that Arch-pre-
server shoes could be bought at Arm-
strong’s Shoe Store, and set o:f imme
diately in that direction. Peggy wished
to buy some novelty keepsakes for her
friends at home, so went directly to
Bott’s Leather Goods Store, where she
always found lovely things in the fa-
mous tanned cod-fish skin, while I, af-
ter a cursory visit to the Gloucester
National Bank, found myself wander-
ing about Jason’s “bigger and better”
Department Store. On the new second
floor, I found a new rest room with the
added advantage of a telephone pay
station, which I thought a decided at-
traction. Hurrying back after a linger-
ing survey of the establishment, I met
Marion just leaving Dorr’s Meat Mar-
ket, and we hied us together to W. G.
Brown in search of Hudnut. We found
him there, in the elusive fragrance of

of his newest child, Le Debut. The
compacts were dainty, and pleasing to
the eye. Le Noir for Sophistication,
Bleu for Romance, Blane for Gaiety,
and Vert for Adventure. One wondered
which to choose.
Returning to the car, we were much
chagrined to find that the others had
been waiting a long time for us. Time
passes so quickly in the midst of
beauty. So long had we worshipped at
her Shrine, in fact, there had been
time for a tour of inspection of the
Gorton Pew plant, a demonstration of
L. E. Smith’s Maytag Washing Ma-
chine, and a brief visit to Shepherd's
Meat Market for supplies.
“Tf you’d been a little longer,’ Jim-
mie teased us, “there’d have been time
for a movie at the North Shore Thea-
tres?
“Or at least some tea at Marshall &
Marchant’s,” added Gay. “Don’t you
love their cushioned booths and their
shiny black table-tops ?”
“And their food!” exclaimed Jimmie,
rolling his eyes.
“You’re worse than Chubby,” de-
clared Peggy as he started the motor,
“but tell us, did you find any news of
Jack?”
“Not a word,” was the reply. ‘No-

up the wrong tree in that direction,
I’m afraid.” And we were forced to
agree.
Arriving at Magnolia, opinions dif-
fered as to the course to be pursued.
Marion insisted upon stopping first at
Brigham’s Market in the _ square,
where she made us all go in with her
to see the inside of what she called “a
splendid market.” And after that we
were at variance again. Jimmie’ sug-
gested that we return to Wetherell’s
and ponder the matter over chocolate
fudge sundaes, but his suggestion
passed scornfully unnoticed.
“Tm going to Richard Briggs’,” an-
nounced Gay. “They’re going to deco-
rate my living room, and I must make
arrangements. Yesterday they broug Bt
samples, and took measurements, and
today I must get some little things
myself. I saw the loveliest little nest of
tables there last week; hand decorated,
they were, with glass tops.”
“I saw them, too,7 said Joan, “but
I’m not in the mood for decorations to-
day. Clothes are more to my taste.”
“And mine,” put in Marion. ‘“Let’s
to Manahan’s.”
“MecMillan’s for me,”
separated. .

Tern in Sonders, Kitmer in Tri-
angles and Arethusa in Knock-
abouts Win in Fine Southwest
Sailing Breeze
The three classes of the East-
ern Point Yacht Club were fa-
vored Wednesday afternoon by a
fine southwest breeze. In the
Sonder class the Tid III had the
advantage at the start, but the
Tern assumed the lead, gradual-
ly lengthening it as the race pro-
gressed. The interest centered in
the tussle of Skeezix and Tid III
for second place. The Skeezix had
got into first position at the gas
buoy on the homestretch, when
the Tid III, by sharp work in jib-
ing, gained a minute and the
leading position, in which she fin-
ished.
In the Triangles Kitmer and
Triton fought it out all over the
course, Kitmer finally getting the
advantage, with the field strung
out. In the Cape Cod class on an
inside course, it was practically a
runaway for Ronnie Swift in the
Arethusa, Barbara Holdsworth be-
ing runner-up, four minutes,
lacking one second, astern. The

two classes participating.
In the Sonders group the Lady
stubbed her forefoot against a
submerbed part of Black Bess
Ledge near the starting line and
was set back several minutes be-
fore she was on her stride again.
The handicap proved too much
and she remained sternmost boat
throughout. The Tid got a slight
advantage at the send-off to the
weather mark off Kettle Island,
with the Tern the challenger. Tid
gained steadily and the race re-
solved itself into a one-two-three
procession, with no change in po-
sition at the close.
The Triangles made a real race
over the same course, Trident
having a slight advantage. Com-
ing into the homestretch back of
the breakwater four leaders, spin-
nakers to port, located a wind
hauling westward and sailed neck-
and-neck. It apparently was any-
one’s race, but Trident’s skipper
was equal to the job and eased
over the line a winner. The sum-

Tid Continues to Show Value of
Recent Changes Made in Hull
—Panope in Triangles Comes to
the Front
A postponed race was sailed in
the morning at Eastern Point in
a moderate southerly breeze. As
it was a regularly scheduled Sun-
day race, hired sailing masters
were not ’ debarred from standing
a trick at the wheel and several
availed themselves of the priv-
ilege.
It was a- windward-leeward
race to the southerly mark. The
Sonders were all mixed up at the
start in their eagerness to get the
best of the get-away, the result
being that Tid, which had the
vight of way, gave ground by
courtesy to prevent a collision,
being handicapped 30 seconds
thereby.
Skeezix took the lead on the
departure for the southern mark,
but when half the water had been
left behind Tid ate out to weather
into leading place, Skeezix being
35 seconds astern and Lady 30
seconds behind the Higgins ship.
Rounding the weather mark,
spinnakers were broken out to
port and Lady and Skeezix fought
it out for second place, the form-
er passing Skeezix at the gas
buoy on the home stretch.

For the afternoon events there
was a splendid stiff breeze which
strengthened steadily, providing
fine racing both from the specta-
tor and the contestant point of
view.
It was a triumph for the fresh
water-bred sailors in the Sonder
class for Jacob D. Cox, Jr., of
Cleveland in the Tern and: Mrs.
Groverman Ellis of Chicago in
the Tid III, won first and second
respectively in a _ sailorman’s
breeze.
The fleet got away well bunched
for the weather mark off Kettle
Island, the Tern appearing to as-
similate the rough gomg with-
out distress. On one short hitch
off shore and a long hitch inside
she reached the mark two min-
utes to the good, Tid second boat.
On the reach across Tid gained
seven seconds. On the run home
Skeezix was minus spinnaker but
managed to cling to third place.
The Triangles over the same

Win in the One Day—Jack
Fricke Uses His Head and
Wins—Light Sou’wester Pre-
vails
Two races were sailed at An-
nisquam Sunday, one in the morn-
ing having been postponed from
Saturday afternoon. The after-
noon race was the first of a se-
ries of three special contests. The
day was fine and the conditions
favorable.
The morning race was sailed in
a light southwest wind. Harry
Worcester in the Squab hit for
the maximum, scoring two wins.
In the forenoon event, the Bird
boats were well bunched on the
run to Plum Cove, Evelyn Wood-
bury in the Oloof reaching that
point first, and also the outer
mark, with Albatross and Canvas
Back in order.
On the windward work, the
Squab, fourth boat, showed her
superiority, going into first place,
and the skipper of the Tern,
standing over to Essex, made a
gain which landed him second po-
sition, displacing Albatross and
Oloof.
In the Cat class, Jack Fricke
in the Kitten played a lone hand
and won. Kitty Cat, Catalena and
Scratch were in the lead on the
reaches. When the boats hauled
on the wind, all save Fricke stood
over to the Lanesville shore. He
came about to port for Essex and,
as luck would have it, ran into a
fine vein of wind coming down

dian bible in the original, says the name is
certainly derived from ‘‘Wanashaqueompsk,”
“the top or extreme point of a rock,” and that
is the probable fact. The rather uncouth Indi-
an name was naturally cut down to a pro-
nounceable mouthful as has been the case in
all ages with the Angio-Saxons. It is the
learned doctor who says that he has no doubt
but whet the name belonged to the entire
cape. That certainly ought to be authorita-

satisfaction of the historical student.

Dutch claimed and were prepared to
assert their right to all territory from
latitude 40 to 50, that is, roughly speak-
ing, from New York Bay and including
to the mouth of the River St. Law-
rence. To clinch their claim they sent
out a group of explorers and cartog-
raphers to spy out and apportion the
land and these did the work assigned
them turning in from time to time
some half dozen good maps of New
Belgii—the phrasing was in Latin. On
the foot notes of several was the state-
ment that these maps had been based
on previous surveys and errors cor-
rected.
It was very apparent to students of
early exploration along the New
England coast that these maps had
been based very broadly on Captain
John Smith’s exceedingly accurate map
of 1614 and that the Dutch map mak-

note also Smith’s nomenclature. The

were a fawn colored English military
twill, their color matching the lighter
color in the brown and fawn mixture
of the coat. Needless to say, I pur-
chased it.
Crossing to Manahan’s, I found Mar-
ion and Joan in the throes of trying on
dresses. There was much fitting and
promenading and looking in mirrors,
which ended by each securing the
“most adorable frock in the shop.”
Marion’s was a tea gown of figured
chiffon, a galaxy of colors on a white
background, with the finely tucked
skirt falling gracefully from the waist.
Joan’s was a sports dress of pink
crepe, a two-piece affair, both skirt
and blouse finely tucked in a geomet-
rical pattern. Belt and collar ended
in a tie arrangement, giving a charm-
ing youthful appearance to the whole.
Returning to the car, we found that
Gay and Peggy were still shopping,
while Jimmie, having completed a very
thorough and _ extensive tour of
Schmidt’s and Ovington’s, had come
off with what he termed Ovington’s
THE L.E. SMITH CO. Inc. |
“prize,” a hand-tooled leather box,
topped with three identical white ele-
phants carrying their trunks high, and
containing material for the games of
poker, pinochle, bridge and whist.
Soon Gay and Peggy joined us, full
of news of bridal trousseaux at the
Grand Maison. The daintiest of
towels, the finest of monogrammed lin-
en sheets, the most luxurious of silken
puffs, and the loveliest of table linen
and lace. And Gay, whose own trous-
seau had been purchased less than a
year ago at the Grand Maison, wished
she were a bride again.
“Have you all seen the art exhibit
at Ruth’s?”’ somebody asked on the
way home. “There are some splendid
paintings there by Cape Ann artists,
and it is simply delightful to be able
to enjoy them over a cup of tea, so to
speak.”
“There’s so much to do and see in
Gloucester,” Gay remarked, “that it’s
almost impossible to do and see it all,
even in one whole summer. I thought
I knew the town fairly well, but it was
only last week that I learned about the
Hermit of Bond’s Hill.”
“There is some remarkanple history
hereabouts,” Peggy told her. “Things
have happened on this shore that are

more thrilling than any novel, yet true

“Like the Wreck of the Hesperus,”
exclaimed Gay. ‘True or false, Long-
fellow’s account is certainly vivid, and
the very sight of Norman’s Woe is
enough to make one shudder.”
“Yet I never seem to notice any
shuddering on Saturday evenings at
Del Monte’s,”’ Jimmie teased fer.
“That’s entirely different, of course,”
was the retort. “And you knew what
I meant, anyway.”
After a flying visit to the Saturday
Public Market for additional provi-
sions, and a stop at L. E. Andrew’s:
for some tools which Jimmie suddenly
discovered he simply couldn’t do with--
out, we started back for the shore, all
wondering, yet none quite daring to
voice his thoughts, if any news of our
absent member had been received
while we were away.
But if we had any secret hopes in
our most secret hearts, they were
doomed to disappointment, for an air
of undisturbed tranquility prevailed.
Chubby and the Doctor looked at us—
inquiringly as we entered, but were.
not disappointed at Jimmie’s “no
news.” They had not expected any.

wondering what to do, all inwardly
nervous, and all! feigning a great pla-
cidity, we heard a sound inside. The
sound of slippered feet coming down a
staircase.
The Doctor jumped up and ran in-
side, and a moment later we heard
voices. The Doctor’s voice, low and
clear, and another, tremulous and
frightened. We heard the doctor ex-
plaining, soothing, reassuring, and
gradually the tones of the other speak-
er became more confident. Then the
footsteps retreated, we heard the soft
paddle of slippers returning up the
stairs, accompanied by a strong, firm
tread, and finally, silence again.
Presently the doctor returned.
“It has happened,” he told us. ‘He
has recovered his senses, but he is still
very weak. We will not disturb him to-
day, but tomorrow—or very soon—-
we shall have his story.”

THAT SECOND ENTRANCE
(Continued from page 2)
causes much delay and congestion, es-
pecially at morning and night when
delays entail much vexation and hard-
ship and this trouble has been accen-
tuated quite a number of times when
the mechanism of the bridge goes
wrong, as the best of mechanism will,
or the electricity or the apparatus is
in trouble. Last summer blockades for
miles were caused by half hour and
longer delays in midsummer.
There is no other way of getting in
or out of town and the situation be-
came really acute. Had a fire occurred
in the westerly section in one of sev-
eral important points, the loss might
have been most serious—without go-
ing into specifications.

ities appealed to the County Commis-
sioners and their Chief Engineer, R.

eS
BYRON W. KNOWLES,
Shipbuilding Department
R. Evans, has made a most exhaustive
study of the problem and submitted
one of the most satisfactory reports of
the kind locally that we have seen for
years.
He showed how there were eight
different locations for bridge heads
across which a _ bridge might be
thrown, six below the railroad bridge
and two above.
Among those indicated was that fol-
lowing the ancient Concord street—-
Biskie or Russ Island causeway, with
a suspension bridge thrown across the
river connecting with the mainland at
Ferry street. This bridge was to have
sufficient clearance to permit the
smaller masted crafts, shore boats,
yachts, etc., to pass, without recourse
to draw raising. Of course any bridge
must of necessity have a draw, al-
though few tall sparred craft use the
waterway. The draw raising by this
plan would be infrequent.
This, it is figured, was the least ex-
pensive of any of the propositions, the
bridge span being the narrowest of the
other locations.
We have always fancied this parti-
cular settlement of this proposition
which is bound to come some day not
so far away, for the accidents to
bridge mechanism are apt to occur
when least looked for. First, it seems
the most logical, giving the shortest
approach to the city from the north
and east and a short cut for the peo-
ple in the northern and upper centrai
parts of the city. It would develop
properties in this section rapidly, for
ward eight, in area, is equal to all the
rest of the city combined—one of the
finest high land summer locations im-
aginable. It will be the short cut to
Northern Massachusetts, New Hamp-
shire and Maine points.
An alternative plan above the River
is for a crossing from the Clark’s Hill
bridgehead, near the glue works, across
the river to Wolf’s Hill. This gives a
53 and 55 Washington Street
longer span and would not afford the
land development possibilities in the
upper part of the parish that the first
named would create.
Of the several locations noted below
the bridge, some closely parallelling the
present structure, the steel bridge
construction will be from three to four
times longer than the uppermost plan
and the cost of these will run over a
million, according to the estimates,
while the old ferry route it is estimat-
ed will cost about $275,000, there be-
ing no land damages, as in the case of
all the other schemes mentioned. Also,
most worthy of consideration, it is the
only plan where land development pos-
sibilities may recoup the cost.
In some of these plans, private inter-
ests only, rather than public benefits,
as a whole, would accrue. It will be
well when the time is ripe for the im-
provement that both county and state
officials have the controlling voice in
this matter, as they are less liable to
be influenced by selfish and local con-
siderations. For that reason the state
and county when working in conjunc-
tion with cities absolutely refuse to be
a party to road improvement unless
they control the direction of the work
and expenditures.
Our interested summer residents,
having influential connections with of-
ficialdom, can do much to direct this
great improvement into its most fea-
sible channel.
AN APOLOGY
Our attention has been called to the
fact that in last week’s dissertation on
“Woman Suffrage,” an injustice was
done by the omission of a paragraph
concerning Mrs. Ferguson, sometime
governor of Texas. We have no desire
to ignore her and trust her admirers
will accept this explanation and dis-
claimer.

the first presentation of that claim in
Pringle’s History, historians have ac-

ity.
Historians are unanimous in agree-
ment that the Kialarnes of Thorwald,
the Keel Cape, from its shape was Cape
Cod. Taking this as his point of de-
parture Thorwald records in his log
that he sailed north and came to the
promontory across the bay which he
named Krossanes. As the writer is
very familiar with that stretch of seas,

CECELIA (“CISSIE”) LOFTUS
The thing which impresses one most
about “‘Cissie” Loftus is a subtle air of
humor and good-humoredness. She
seems to be secretly and privately
amused by life and all that’s dn it.
Smilingly, genial, she watches its prog-
ress of events with a quizzical interest,
a half-twinkle in her eye. She is ut-
terly frank in her opinions, and abso-
lutely sincere.
“T love the movies,’
answer to my question. “Of course,
there will always be the legitimate
stage. It has periods of slumping like
every other business, but nothing will
ever take its place.”
The Vitaphone movies are a “freak
thing,” she says, which will go on for
some time, perhaps. But they will not
be permanent, nor will they take the
place of the legitimate. The element of
personal magnetism which is the glory
of the play, and the individual, direct
contact afforded by it, will never be
superseded either by the silent drama,
or the Vitaphone.
The stage of the present day, Miss
Loftus thinks, is very interesting. It
has lost the qualities of drama that
she personally loves, the lightness, the
fragrance, the poetic romanticism of
the days of her greatest triumphs, yet
the modern drama has advantages.
Miss Loftus is a great admirer of
Shakespearean plays, though she con-
siders her Marguerite in ‘Faust’ her
finest performance. Another interest-
ing play to her was Peter Pan, which
she did in London. ;
Herself the mother of a seventeen-
year-old boy, Miss Loftus is an advo-
cate of the younger generation. She

DIES WHILE BATHING
Grace Helfenstein, Daughter of Mary-

Had Come to Pigeon Cove Four Days
Before
Miss Grace Nelson Helfenstein, 30,
only child of Rev. and Mrs. Edward T.
Helfenstein of Baltimore, succumbed
suddenly while swimming off Short
Beach early last Monday afternoon.
Rev. Dr. Helfenstein is the Episcopal
Suffragan Bishop of Maryland. The
Helfensteins have the Varney cottage
at Pigeon Cove for the summer, and
the young woman’s parents came to
the beach to watch the daughter swim.
She was an accomplished swimmer
and they watched her dive, float and do
other stunts. At length she floated,
perfectly still on the surface. After
a while there was no movement and
the parents became alarmed and called
to Harold McCarthy, who conducts a
lunch cart nearby.
McCarthy swam out and found the
girl lifeless, her head submerged in
water. He brought her to the shore
and a call was rung on the fire alarm
and the Coast Guard Station at Gap
Cove notified.
Patrolman Quinn responded and
first-aid treatment was applied until
the arrival of Dr. E. E. Cleaves. The
Gloucester police ambulance was sum-
moned and responded with the pul-
motor. The physician worked on her
for more than an hour before she was

of Buffalo, at her home, Wingaersheek

Mrs. Hawks came here some 35 years
ago with her husband, the late James
S. Hawks, a Michigan railroad presi-
dent and executive, who with his broth-
er, the late Edward C. Hawks, pur-
chased the Willoughby Park tract and
what is now called Wingaersheek
Beach and since that time has spent
her summers here.
Mrs. Hawks, whose maiden name
was Cook, was a fine representative of
the Colonial people who settled Upper
New York State and endeared herself
to many. The keynote of her charac-
ter was a fine altruism, embodied in
the domesticity of the word neighbor-
liness, always thoughtful and consider-
ate of others and a true friend in every
sense.
This spirit was strikingly exemplified
several years ago when she gave to the
city the desirable tract of upland and
strand known as Short Beach, Farm
Point, opposite Annisquam village, as a
public park and bathing beach and
when it was pointed out to her that a
boiling spring on the property was not
included she at once had this tract add-
ed to the gift.
She leaves two sons, Russell and Ed-
ward A. The body was taken to Buf-
falo for interment in the family lot.

THE NORTH SHORE THEATRE
(Continued from page 3)
with the incomparable Emil Jan-
nings at his very best. This is a
drama of East Limehouse, Lon-
don’s rapidly disappearing slum.
It concerns the regeneration of a
giant bruiser, “Basher Bill,” who
rules the ugly district with his
fists. His domestic life is shared
by a girl of the streets. A Salva-
tion Army lass comes into the
neighborhood, seeking in her pity
and piety to win back the souls
of the slums. She is the instru-
ment of the bruiser’s reform.
On the same bill we will pre-
sent Phyllis Haver, Stuart Holmes
and Wallace MacDonald in “Your
Wife and Mine.” This is not a
highly emotional sex drama, it is
far from that. It is broad, clean
humor perfectly agreeable to all
sorts and conditions of folks. All
will find it very entertaining be-
cause it was made for laughs and
has nothing else.

The afternoon race was a guess-
1:56:05 img match. The greater part of
1:56:55 the skippers guessed that the
wind would continue light all day. -
These turned some of their crew
ashore to dispose of human bal-
last and lighten ship. A few car-
ried a full complement.
The dope went well with the
light craft on the two reaches.
David Muzzey in Canvas Back ran
away from the fleet as if they
were anchored and was half a
mile ahead of the second boat at
the outer mark.
As he rounded on the wind,
however, the breeze began to pipe
up, kicking up quite a chop, and
Canvas Back kicked and flopped
und shipped water. Then the
heavy weather boats astern came
into the picture, the Squab get-
ting in the lead, cutting out Can-
vas Back from what looked like
a sure-thing victory.
In the Cat class, Russell Smith
in the Caterpillar won. In the
Fish group, Perch had the upper
hand until the last stage, when
Charlie Hill in the Sail Fish, by
clever handling on the wind, suc-
ceeded in grabbing off first hon-
ors. The summary:
