A Springfleld lady recently wrote to a friend in Hartford: “I have finally decided to buy some Men’s Silk Shirts for Christmas. But what is troubling me is what make to buy. T wonder if you can help me decide?” The mistake this lady made is not unusual. It ts just as though she sald: “I have finally decided to visit London. But there are so many different Londons in the world I can’'t decide which to see.” Of course the London which is famous ig London, England. And it is just as true that the Silk Shirts most people have in mind when thev say Shirts is the S-M-T Label Shirt made exclusively for the Stackpole- Moore-Tryon Co.

The vote in fa- vor of license was 58,459, with 29, 997 against. Last year the vote for license was 46,115 and 31,877 against. The total vote was the largest ever cast there on the license question and the majority of 23,462 for li- cense has been exceeded only three times in the city’s history. The larg- est majority—28,613—was recorded in 1905. The liquor question overshadowed all other issues in the campaign and both the license and no license forces were represented by many workers in virtually every precinct. Hundreds of conveyances were used to carry voters to t Women holding banners bea pictures of small children on which were printed the words, “Please protect by voting no license,” were stationed in the vicin- ity of mos polling booths. Motor truc brewery wagons « ing printed appeals to vote were sent through the city by ense forces. lliam A. Sunday, who is conducting an evangelistic campaign there, took a prominent part in the fight. He dclivered several addresses on the liguor issue and urged the voters who attended his meetings to vote “no.” - The Massachusetts anti- on league sent out thousands of ars and kept a force of orators v for weeks. No-license workers were at a loss ain the decrease in the ‘no” vote from last year's figures. suburb- an and residential districts wh.ch they had counted upon to poll heavy majorities for no license, returned majorities for license, many of them of a substantial nature. Liquor in- terests asserted that many voters in these districts who ordinarily voted “no” in order to keep saloons out of their particular wards, changed their votes to “yes” this year because of the fear that the entire city would go ‘“dry” and that the revenue de- rived from liquor licenses would be lost. No-license advocates gained two new victories in the four municipal cities outside of oBston holding elec- tions _yesterday. North Adams changed from the “wet” to the “dry" column for the first time in twenty- nine and Fitchburg turned last year’s license majority of 72 into & no-license margin of 84. Peabody and Quincy remained in the “dry” column. With the last of the thirt seven city elections”in the state now decided the “dry” forces this year have added six cities to their list and have not lost any. Peabody held its first election a city vesterday Donnell as may- elected H, L. rank Joseph miyor in North Adams, Foss in Fitchburg, and Whiton in Quincy. HEALTH BOARD WINS FIGHT FOR SEWER Public Works Board Recommends One for Winthrop Street A fight instituted by the board of health nearly two years ago for a sewer in Winthrop street from Lin- wood to Vance street, was brought to a close last evening, when follow- ing a hearing, the board of public works voted to recommend the sewer. When the petitioners first presented their request it was found that the street was an unaccepted one, and several of the property owners re- fused to sign the necessary waivers. The city has since taken over the street as a public highway. Those favoring the sewer at the hearing were Joseph Schiedel and the Camp Real Estate company. George F. Wessells opposed the petition. The second hearing was for the establishment of building lines on both sides of FEast street, from New- ington Road to the railroad crossing. City Engineer Hall had a map show- ing a 16-foot line on the east side. On the west side, the line was some- what changed due to the layout as follows: Five feet in front of the first property, then 20 feet to Sun- rise avenue and 15 feet the remainder of the ‘way. 'Those favoring the line as shown on the map were J. August Carlson, J. A. Carlson, Martin An- derson, Rudolph and Bertha Linn, Andrew Stromquist, F. E. Carlson, H. N. Lockwood, Carl J. Friden, Mendall Forbes and Andrew Carlson. Those opposed were M. T. White and James Prendergast, who said they objecteed because there was no need of a line north of Smalley street on account of the cemetery property commenc- ing there. On motion of Comissioner Anderson the lines on the engineer’s adopted. New Lights Ordered. Chairman Humphrey reported that an inspection of petitions for street \d been completed with the sistunce of the engineer and it was recommended that lights be installed at the following places: Three on Slater Road, north of Clinton street, at the ner of Hamilton and mbull three on Jerome ct; one on Brown street; one on s street: one on Horace street; two on Silver street. north of Brond street; two on Connecticut avenuc: one on City avenue; two on William strect! one on rt street, north of ‘\Vest street; one at Chester Place and map we (The Twentieth Century Christmas Santa Claus no longer uses Sled and Reine deer.
