So many of our leading and most
enterprisinS citizens and business men
have joined. and taken hold of the
work to be carried out by the improve
ment society recently formed in this
city. that there is no doubt but what
its work will be exceedingly beneficial
to Hallowell that many Improvements
which the city has so sadly needed will
be carried out through the society.
The sanitary conditions of certain
parts of the city might be improved
upon. The appearance of the river
bank could be made to look more pic
turesque to voyagers on the river.
The number OF high-class entertain
ments and lectures could be greatly
enlarged upon. All these lines of work
are to be taken up and we have no
doubt but what great things will be ac-
complished. All success to the society
and its excellent principals
