East Sumner.

Election passed off very. tremendously
and almost the entire old board of
officers were reelected. About the only
change was in school superintendent, W
II. Eastman succeeding Alice Davenport
Turner in that Office.
We have received the last animal re.
port of the State Board of Assessors
from Hon. Otis Hayford, chairman of the
Board. 1t is filled with interesting sta.
tistical matter showing the great materi.
al prosperity of the state, and is valuable
for reference. Later some extracts
which may interest all tax payers will be
furnished the Democrat. During the
past year the tax on new corporations,
(about 5000 in number) amounted to
$50, 700. Steam railroads pay to the
state in taxes 1925, 1888, savings banks

The laughable comedy, entitled "Prof.
Baxter's Invention" which was present
ed at the Congregational vestry in the
interest of the Ladies' Circle on Thurs
day evening, drew full house despite
the stormy weather. 1t was we'll render
ed and "toOk" immensely. The play is
we'll suited to the present electrical age
and abouuds in great mirthful features.
1t was one of the best productions ever
presented here by local talent. We learn
that the receipts were some twenty dol
lars, and the admission rates were low.
Invincible Lodge of Good Templars
recently celebrated its S4th anniversary
and partook of an oyster supper. This
is one OF the oldest lodges In the county
and has survived many that have been
instituted since its birth. 1t seems to
be entitled to Its name-Invincible.

Mrs. William Cushman.

To the many friends of Jerusha, wife
of William Cushman of Hartford, any
words of loving remembrance may seen
almost unnecessary, but some of us would
like to place on record our appreciation
of her worth. Living here so long hcl
acquaintance was wide justas her charac
ter and bright sunny disposition made
friends with all she met Brave, patient
loving, noble woman that she was. it was
her sympathy, heartfelt and helpful, fol
those in affliction or who needed her in
any way, which brought people so near tt
her. With no children of her own she
had brought up boys and girls in her
family with all mothers care and atfcc.
ton until they could do for themselves.
In all the good works of the neighbor.
hood she was first and foremost. Every
social gathering found its best inspira.
ton in her. Her passing on to Other
scenes is distinct loss to us who are
left, but the memory of what she was
and what she did will linger with us all
to brighten the days until we shall meet
again.
She was the first treasurer of the Uni,
versalist Aid Society and rejoiced es.
pecially in the services held in the neigh
borhood last summer.
She leaves husband and brother to
mourn her loss.
Funeral services were conducted March
8 by Rev. Mr.. Hooper and were very
largely attended. A profusion of flowers
of which she was passionately fond,
graced the casket.
The Aid Society out of respect for their
late treasurer will hold no meetings
during March.

Greenwood.

The spring poets are out again, and
his is the way one of them undertakes
to serve up the month that has just
gone by. Hear him:
Adeu and good radiance forever, February;
Ike Napoleon you was short, rough and cold
hearted-very.
Jack Frost was your servant, who worked Ike a
hero,
To keep the four weeks down to the point zero.
But in this he did not quite succeed.
since the month ended in moderate
rain storm, which, together with a
south wind, the next day, settled the
snow nearly one-half. That was the
first day of March, and about noon a
crow flew over, cawing away with de-
light, thus causing it to SAVIOR still more
of spring.
The next day occurred town meeting.
and so unsatisfactory was it to some,
that they talk of appointing another to
see if it will not be more favorable to
them.
That same day, Mrs. A. S. Brooks
visited at the Bennett place, and there is
reason to think she enjoyed herself bet
ter than she would with the rest of her
sex, voting in the town meeting.
The next Wednesday, Mrs. Scott Mer-
rill and her little daughter Ida visited
here and great was the fun the little
folks had sliding down hill on the crust.
Mamie Brooks visited her brother,
Leon Brooks, of Paris, last week and is
now at work in Mann's factory at the
Pond
Dannie Bryant and Roy Titus went on a
Snt,,rla.,
turned Monday night. They seemed
highly pleased, not only with their visit
but also with something or somebody
else. Nora Thomas went to Portland on
the same train 10 visit her relatives there.
Mrs. Frank Brooks has mostly recov-
cred from her illness and is visiting her
folks on Howe Hill.
In addition to the various kinds of
timber bought at the Pond for different
purposes, one man is now buying white
ash for shovel handles, the length want
ed being "A inches, and nothing smaller
than six inches in diameter. A small
consignment has been delivered from
this place.
Mrs. Harry Coles baby, now just two
months old, is growing well and getting
to be rather smart looking young lady.
Ernest Brooks was injured more Sc
yerely by that falling limb than he or
any one else supposed at the time of the
accident. His left eye is tightly closed,
and when forced open is found to be
perfectly sightless. His hearing is also
much impaired.
Sorry, Jesse, your wife has left you,
but dare say there are enough more who
would be glad to take her place.
Herbert Ring and wife are residents of
this town. Mr.. Ring has job in Bethel
this winter aud so took his wife with
him. Hence the baby belongs here also.

LIFE GUARDS.

The Life Guards are two regiments of
cavalry forming part of the British
household troups. They are gallant
soldiers, and every loyal British heart is
proud of them. Not only the Kings
household, but yours, ours, everybody s
should have its life guards. The need
of them is especially great when the
greatest foes of life, diseases, find allies
in the very elements, as colds, influenza,
catarrh, the grippe and pneumonia do in
the stormy month of March. The best
way that we know of to guard against
these diseases is to strengthen the sys-
tenn with Hoods Sarsaparilla-the great
est of all life guards. 1t removes the
conditions in which these diseases make
their most successful attack, gives vigor
and tone to all the vital organs and
functions, and imparts genial warmth
to the blood. Remember the weaker the
system the greater the exposure disease.
Hoods Sarsaparilla makes the system
strong.

East Hebron.

Although we have now the pleasantest
and warmest days for many weeks, very
many are sick with colds.
Mrs. Roscoe Harlow is passing a short
time with her father, Edward Shaw, of
West Auburn. He is failing aud said to
be past recovery. Mrs. Fogg, formerly
of Bucktield, is caring for him. He has
only one son, Frank, of Auburn, and
Mrs. Harlow of East Hebron.
John S. Freeman and Herbert A. Rec
ord went to Thompson Pond fishing and
passed several days there. They caught
quite number of superb fish, but it was
"a little too early in the season for an
abundant catch. They report that Belle
Records health is very poor. She has
recently returned from a visit to her
grandmother, Mrs. Bates Record, in
Buckfield.
Several dogs in the place have recently
been laid away. l.. r. Hodsdon's hound
was the first one. Mrs. II. l.. Rogers
soon followed, being old and decrepit,
but knowing more than many human
beings, and one of II. A. Records young
dogs was laid away. 1t seems very cruel
to have faithful old dog killed that has
lived with the family for many years,
when he would have given his life in
defending you at any time.

place.

Albany.

Mrs. A. S. Cole was carried to the
French Hospital, Lewiston, Tuesday,
She had to be carried on bed. We
have learned that she stood the journey
all right and that is all. We all hope
she may be benefited by the operation.
The Ladies' Circle was entertained by
Mrs. c. A. Grover and Mrs. F. Z. Bean.
There was good sized crowd, and every
one speaks in praise of the entertain
ment, which was given by local talent,
with the exception of reading by Miss
Ethel Farwell of Bethel, graduate OF
Gould's Academy. Miss Farwell gave as
good proof by her reading of the ad-
vantage of a thorough education and
school training, and we hope she may
soon visit our circle again.
Two of our oldest residents were burr
ed the 9Th, Mr.. Sylvanus Bennett Of the
north part of the town, aged IS, and Mrs.
Samuel Guptill aged Is years. MIR. Ben
nett has spent the most of his life here
in town, rearing large family, most of
them still living To mourn his departure.
Mrs. Guptill has been resident for
about twenty years. She was great
student of books. Both were highly re-
spected residents, and will be greatly
missed.
Miss Bertha Paine of Rumford, a
former resident, is visiting Mrs. Will
Newcomb and other friends here.
