II. ID. kingsbury of Liyonia, New York
is in the city gathering data to add to the
history of Kennebec county, which he is
busly engaged in writing. In an interview
with Mr.. kingsbury the JOURNAL was shown
a new plan of the town of Waterville. =
drawn by Charles Hayden in 1909. This
map is the property of Chas. F. johnson,
ESD, of this city. and is a vesy
interesting and curious documer..
The notes written on the marg
by Mr.. Hayden are as follows
Scale, fou. rods to the inch This plan
gives view of the several houses and lines
situated in the town of Waterville by s

This explanation would indicate that
seven houses constituted the town of Water
vile at that time, but rs the plan was made
to be used in the settlement of some dis
pute over piece of land, it is probable
that an outline simply was given of this
portion of the town. The Moses Dalton
house" stands now as then opposite the
gtist mill. aa1 is known to the older resi-
dents of Wateryille as the first frame house
built here. Mr.. Simeon Keith, the we'll
known upholsterer. is a grandson of Mr..
Hayden, thc surveyor who drew the plan.

Might Air.

An extraordinary fallacy Is what a
writer on sanitary subjects pronounces the
dread of night air He asks; What air can
we breathe ut night but night air2 The
choice is between pure night air from
without and foul air from within. Most
people prefer the lattcr-an unaccountable
choice. What will they say if it is proved
to be true that fully one-haf of all the
diseases we suffer from are occa'ioned by
people sleeping with windows shutf An
open window most nights in the year can
never hurt any one In great cities night
air is often the best and purcst to be had
in ty-four hours. | could better I'M
derstand shutting the windows in town
during the day than during the night, for
the sake Of the sick The absence of smoke,
the quiet, all tend TO make night the best
time for airing the patient
Always air your room, then, from the
outside air if possible Windows are made
to open. doors are made to shut-a truth
which seems extremely difficult of apf're'
hcnsion. Every room must be aired from
without.
