Notes of the Day.
Cl.l'berlin post netted about $3.50
lfel their - onument fund, making the
fund now about $500.
The Relief corps wish to thank the
citizens and the children for their
generous contributions of flowers.
1t was a success all around and ev-
erybody performed their part we'll
The evening entertainment showed
that home talent is always appreci-
ated and that we have enough ar
lists in our town to get up as enjoya-
BILE an entertainment as city talent
could give.
Chamberlin post, at its regular
meeting June I, passed a series OF
resolutions in appreciation of the
assistance and service rendered Me
mortal day, by orator, clergy, or
carnations, musical clubs, reader,
children, citizens and ladies who aid
ed in so many ways, and made the
day one of the best observed and
most appropriate in the history OF
the post The national disaster so
fills these columns and all minds that
more extended notice of this and
other memorial services is omitted.
VILLAGE MEETING.
About a score of the citizens at
tended the adjourned village meeting
Monday night to raise money for
the current expenses of the year and
theinterest on the village debt. Col.
Franklin Fairbanks, president of the
village presided and asked how much
money the trustees needed.
Mr.. Blossom said the trustees
could get along with a tax of 25
cents on the dollar, make the usual
repairs, build more plank walks and
sewers and pay for electric light; but
they ought to have 80 cents on a
dollar because they want to lay 800
feet more of macadam on Eastern
avenue, build a large sewer at the
head of Main street and lay a little
concrete on Main and Summer
streets. l do not think it advisable
to macadamize the whole avenue in
one year but at the rate now planned
it could be completed in three years.
1t is necessary to have sewer at the
head of Main street to carry OFT the
sewage that now runs down Hast
ingS' hill. 1t does not help the in
come of our water works to have
such a condition of affairs above the
dam. A sewer 2 inches in diameter,
running from Frank Miners house
on Green street to the rear of P A
Roach's store, would cost from
$1,000 to $3.50, and besides carry
ing off the sewage would take all
the surface water on Main street
The trustees also want to lay a little
concrete sidewalk on Main and Sum-
mer streets. 1t costs One-half less
than brick and i'll some respects is
much better.
On motion of E. d. Blodgett a tax
of 80 cents on the dollar was voted
and the meeting adjourned.
1t is the intention of the trustees
to macadamize 800 feet of the Ave
nue. this summer, working up the
street towards the Plain. Surveys
have already been made for the new
sewer and a city engineer will prob
ably be asked to make a plan and
have the work completed this season.
