A good many people in the city are
pleased to know that some sort of :,
pest house is to be provided at once.
There seems to be promise of Il good
deal of smallpox in the State, the COM
ing winter, and Waterville being SO
centrally located is liable to get case
here any time. The present plan is to
only fit I'D tine old building near the
cemetery as a temporary pest house
as the city has set of plans all made
for q firSt-clasS one and this will
doubtless be built as soon as finances
allow.

Coach Harris is subjecting the Colby
football squad to a little different
treatment than it has been accustomed
to in the past and the result is being
watched with a great deal of interest.
He promptly sends man to the gym
for disobeying orders. no matter if he
is considered the very best or the poor
est. Then the men are being trained
for endurance as well as in the finer
points of the game. They have to take
their run on the track as well as work
on the field and some get an unusual
amount of this if their wind seems poor
He believes that he can develop a
strong eleven out of the material he has
and is working hard to do it. The men
have to come out regularly, do the work
as directed, observe training regula-
tions and show lots of life and ginger.
Each man is being given a fair chance
to show what he is worth and no one is
at all sure of his position. There are
some radical changes from past policies
and it is believed that they will show
before the season is over.
