of Its native-born citizens now reside in other

styled Old Home Week accords with the general
sentiment Of our people and the universal
desire that these absent sons and daughters
come back to visit treir old homes and the
scenes Of their childhood.
This year the week from Aug. 2 to inclusive
has been designated as Old Home Week in
Maine, and In behalf Of tine State extend 3
cordial invitation TO every son and daughter of
Maine ss well as their families and friends TO
visit Maine at that time, assuring them Of n
