improvements at Industrial School.

Andrew Halves of StroudWater, Prof.
Anthony of Lewiston and c. H. Dud-
ley of this city, a special committee of
the board of trustees of the Maine In
dustrial School, were in consultation,
yesterday. with regard to the improve
ments which are shortly to be made at
the school.
According to the plans now in hand,
a stable, 45x72, will be erected near
the site of the old. 1t will be modern
and conveniently arranged, with silo,
and room for eight cows and four
horses. F''
In few days the trustees will ad-
vertise for bids on the electrical work
contemplated for each of the three
buildings. At the present time the girls
are locked in their rooms after the re-
firing hour. BY the new arrangement
the doors will be closed at the proper
time but not locked. By an arrange
ment of electric wires the opening of
any door SO connected will be indi-
Gated by bell annunciator in the room
of the matron or superintendent. The
bell ringing after the retiring hour will
indicate that something of an unusual
nature has occurred and will warrant
investigating. In the specifications are
included the plans for wiring the build
ings for electric lights.
There is an appropriation of $4,000
available for the improvements. new
buildings, etc.; also an extra appro-
priation of $1,000 for grading.

Mrs. Mary e. Hathaway.

| The death of Mrs. Mary f.. Hatha-
way, which occurred early Thursday
morning, removes a lady of high es-
TEEN to all who knew her and one of
the older lady residents of the city. The
cause of her death was pneumonia with
which she had been ill only about two
| weeks.
| Mrs Hathaway was born in Bangor,
Feb. 3. 1922 and was the last of a family
of ~ children all of whom. with one
exception, lived to over the three score
years and ten. She was the daughter
| of the late Capt. Joshua Jordan, COM
mander of a packet between Bangor
and Boston. Mrs. Hathaway was mar
ried to the late Sylvanus Hathaway
and came to this city in 1915. The trip
to Gardiner was made from Bangor by
stage, as railroads had not been insti-
tuted in this section at that time.
She lived for As years in the house in
which her death occurred and for a
period of 26years had been prominent
member of the Congregational church.
Being a thoroughly Christian woman
and one of such pleasing ways and dis
position it was easy for her to make
a host of friends, whose attachments to
her was sincere and true. For lady
81 years of age, Mrs. Hathaway was
unusually active and had attended to
all the household duties for herself and
daughter until the time she was taken
i'll.
One daughter, Miss Augusta Hatha-
way of this city, two sons, George E. of
this city and Fred A. of Randolph, who
have the heartfelt sympathy of the en-
tire community in their loss, beside fire
grand children and one great grand
child, survive her.
The funeral service will be held, at
2.30 o'clock Sunday afternoon, from her
late home on Lincoln street.

THE CURFEW MISSED.
No One Can Seem to Be Found to At
tend to Matter.

For years and years previous to this
time the custom of ringing the curfeW
bell has been upheld in this city with
hardly break and the bell in the
tower of Christ church has during a
long period of years pealed forth at the
appointed hour. This custom has been
preserved until the present time and
for many years the city government
has provided for a city bell ringer,
who duty it was to give the bells sew
eral turns at 9 o'clock each evening.
For many years the late Elbridge E.
Written held the position mentioned,
and since his death several have been
engaged to fill the vacancy.
The continuance of the custom of
ringing this curfew bell has been
through so many years and its chime
has become so customary that it is
wondered how many have noticed that
for two weeks the old bell has not done
it's usual duty and that the hour of
9 has rolled by without it's sound be-
ing heard. Such is the case and to
many it will be a regret that the time
honored custom has been neglected and
the bell now remains silent throughout
the evening
The inability of the city government
satisfactory arrangements to secure
one to fill the position of bell-ringer
is the cause, but it would seem that
some arrangement should be made to
provide for a continuance of the ring
ing of the old curfew.

Baseball, Today,

The battle for the championship of
the Colby Junior League will open on
the college field, at 1880 this forenoon,
when Hebron and Higgins come to-
gcthcr for the first game. Coburn and
Kicker will play at 2.30 in the after
noon, and the winners of these two
games, at 10 o'clock Saturday forenoon,
when the championship will be decided.
1t rather looks now as if Coburn and
Hebron would be in the final game. all
though no one wants to take chances
in making any definite statements. The
games promise to be interesting and
hot, all right.
Cobupn is obliged to play the return
game with Edward Little of Auburn,
this forenoon, and the game will be
at the Trotting Park grounds in Fair
field. at o'clock. This means a double
header for Coburn, but it is the best
arrangement that can be made under
the circumstances.
No recitations will be held at Colby
today, on account of the games.
