STILL CoMING.-Mr. Geo. r. Davis yester-
day received letter from Miss l.. T. Ross,
Secretary of the New Gloucester Soldiers
Aid Society, in which she states that the Soci-
city has sent two barrels Of green and and one
barrel OF dried apples, besides articles of cloth
ing, for the beneft of the soldiers, and that in a
day or two several barrels more of apples will
be forwarded. The New Gloucester people
have done well in their efforts for the soldiers,
snd they are not yet weary in the work. Let
others follow their example
Some complaints have been made that dona-
tions have not been acknowledged. All have
been acknowledged so far as the source from
whence they came was known But many
packages have been left in the basement of
the New City Hall without anything to tell
from whence they came, or where they were
to be sent. All articles sent should be left at
the City Hall, and note should be sent to
Mr. g. r. Davis, stating from whence they
came, and receipt will be Immediately re-
turned to the donors. This will account for
the reason why SO many packages which have
been received here, and forwarded to the sold
iers, have not been accredited to those who
sent them.
