Delightful showers after the extreme
ly hot weather.
The poorest and at the same time the
most travelled road in Oxford County,
is, without question, from Norway vii
lage to Norway Lake. Although the
town voted to appropriate the sum of
one thousand dollars for the improve
ment of this highway, it is reported that
not one cent has been expended upon it
so far this year. Why?
Mr.. and Mrs. H. j. Bangs have leased

A break in the water main at the corn
shop and another near Isaac Abbott's
made some work for the Norway Water
Co. during the week. Nothing of a
serious nature, however.
At the hearing at the selectmen's
Office Saturday afternoon on the petition
of the Eastern Telephone Company for
rights to enter the village, the General
Manager, NJ. S. Bird, appeared. c. C.
Adams looked after the interests of the
New England Telephone and Telegraph
Company. There was no opposition to
the petition from citizens or the New
England people. The selectmen did not
make known the decision.
The canvassing between the two tele-
phone companies, the Eastern and New
England, is most interesting. While
one company offers to put in phone
for nothing for three months, the other
goes them one better and puts phone
into the house for four months and re-
ceipts the bill from that time. At the
end of the period the instrument is to be
removed without expense unless the
party wish to rent it. In this way both
companies are working up quite long
list of Subscribers. Rather good
thing for the "patrons."

N. j., and family, will enjoy their vaca-
