Brooklyn, and she was leaning over the
rail. in deep contemplation Of ferry
boat bound from Brooklyn to Man
haitian.
Say, which Is the back of that
boat?" she asked suddenly Of a ships
officer standing near by ON deck.
The oficer had had some days of
experience with inquiring Cuban school
teachers and had acquired wisdom in
that direction. He did. not rashly an

Gardeners Curiew Bell.

There has always been considerable
talk about the curfew. There are few
places in the State, in fact none, that
have the record that Gardiner has.
Ever since the stone church was erect
"a and the bell placed in it, there has
been a curfeW. There is always an
appropriation made for the ringing OF
the bell and probably always will be
Several wears ago. a law was made by
the city government that at the ring
ing of this bell at o'clock, all tn"
children in the city, except when ac-
compannied by their parents, should
be under the paternal roof.
There have been n few occasions
when the matter Of appropriating for
the ringing Of the bell was unfavorably
considered. This was soon overruled.
There are many in the city that look
for the sounds of that bell as much as
for their meals. 1t tells the time when
to retire, when out calling, n pleasant
reminder to return, and many other
instances.
Those who have been away for long
periods claim that the ringing of the
bell is one of the pleasantest reminders
of home that there is. Even the oldest
citizens in the city cannot recall the
time when the sounds Of that We're not
heard. every evening at the regular
time There is no reason to believe
that the ringing of the curfeW will br
ever discontinued in this city as long
as the bell remains in the tower of the
Episcopal church.

recalled the question raised at the last

tions which are to be found in this
column under school Board Matters"
1t seems that in the compilation Of the
laws relating to schools. ana especially
in that portion relating to the super
intending School Committee" the law
for towns only, was given; as 4 section
in the statute which was not given in
the school report, says that that par
ticular section does not refer to cities.
The resignation of A. s. Chadbourne
as a member Of the school board Was
received ana accepted.
The board was then asked to prepare
ballots for a member to fill the va
cancy. on the first ballot, the total

CITY HAS BUILDING FEVER.

City hall that was to have been, is N
stimulIuS for renewed effort. The one
great obstacle, however. is one of the
sure things Of life-taXeS. The need
is great but the taxes are many.
Nevertheless, a way will be found to
dodge these and Waterville. the beau
tiful university city. will have build
ings worthy Of her reputation.
There are almost numberleSS schemes
on foot to reach the desired goal.
Everybody wants new City hall if il
can be built without increasing the
taxes; those Interested in the schools.

his last report Chief PIaisted stated
that 1t now costs more to keep the old
station in repair than tho interest on
the sum required to build a new sta
ton would amount to. This t. good
argument for a new station and the
firemen are using il.
The question Of a new City hall VIII
be practically decided at the coming
mass meeting. -~
The matter Of new school buildings
is q troublesome one. There IL an
urgent need for both a new High school
building and a Grammar school build
ing. 1t is generally accepted that both
really ought not to be built, this year.
There are advocates on the school
board for both schools The Alumni
Association Of the High school is at
work for "A new building. a mass
meeting has been called for Wedncs-
day. April IL, at which the matter will
be discussed in the same manner that
the City hall question will be at the
mass meeting, next Monday evening
II Is estimated that the cost Of a suit
able building would be in the neigh
borhood Of S35, 600. The alumni want
some action taken. this year, not nee
essarily that the building should h.
completed but that some start be- made
50 that the matter may be settled.
The members on the school board
who favor building the Grammar
school building first believe that it is
most needed. one gentleman recently
said that if there was any inconVcn-
ience to be borne by the scholars the
older ones are better prepared to bear
il than the smaller ones. Those in
favor Of building the High school first
believe, on the other hand, that it is a
shame that a city noted for its schools
rs Waterviie is, should not have a
suitable High school building.
The four buildings that are proposed
al have loyal supporters. ana as the
time for decisive action in regard 10
the city hall draws near a discussion
~ the various plans is the principal
topic If conversation on the street.
