cAsr1NE ALUMNI ENcAMpMENr.

To THE EDITOR OF THE JoURNAL:-The
people of Waldo county are naturally
much interested in the Castine Normal
school, as each year shows goodly number
from the county graduating from that ex-
cellent institution. Yet l doubt if many
know of the unique and delightful annua
gathering known as the "Castine Alumni
Camp" More than 1000 graduates have
joined this A Association and their voluntar,
and generous contributions, with the re-
ceipts from our summer encampment, have
made possible this delightful Alumni home
at Standpoint, on the shores of Penobscot
Bay. The Association owns five acfes OF
land with fine shore frontage, large
grove and wooded slope containing an ex.
cellent spring of pure water. The Scamp
is open for three weeks, the date being set
by the president for the year. During that
time the members gather from all quarters
for rest and recreation. For its accommo-
dation heretofore 3-story building, 25x45,
has done duty. This contains in the base
ment large airy dining room, sufficient to
seat 90 comfortably, and a well-appointed
kitchen, with cold storage. The second
floor consists of an assembly hall, the size
of the building, sunny and airy, with it's ten
windows and two doors. Across one corn.
er of this is the generous fireplace, the
center OF attraction on foggy days and chill
ly evenings. An excellent piano adds much
to our pleasure. Above the hall are the
sleeping apartments, always inadequate to
the demand. Many have r0omed at farm
houses and cottages near. More than a
score of our members ''roOmed out" last
year.
The need for cottage for sleeping
apartments has been so apparent that in
the summer of 1906 it was voted-since the
Association was out of debt-to sell stock,
raise all the money possible, borrow the
rest and put up good sized dormitory.
The building committee consists of Prof.
A. F. Richardson of Castine, l. B. Clary of
Livermore Falls, Osmond Emery of Bar
Harbor, c. P. De Laittre, Minneapolis,
MINI. Mr.. De Laittre arrived early in
June and has been able to give the work
his personal atten tion. A two-story cot
tage with - good-sized rooms is nearing
completion. Many of the rooms are already
eng aged and when camp opens July 31st it
is doubtful if there is one vacant room,
The rent from these will defray the neces-
sary expenses and enable us also to make,
annually, small payment on our indebted.
ness.
PrOfs Richardson and G. 7. Fletcher are

Mr.. Fred Foster and Miss Hughes, who for
years were associated with the early history
of the school, Such quartette of dearly
loved teachers, bound by the strongest ties
to hundreds of hearts, ought to prove a

the "banner year" in the history of the Cas-
tine Alumni Encampment.

Line Stores Are Closed.

"The line stores are closed" That we,
one day, would be able to write the above
lines we have never doubted, says the
AroOsto0k Times That the proposition to
close should come from the parties who
were operating the stores we had never
thought of, but this is what came to pass
One dealer offered to 60 out of business
same The latter agreed to the proposition
and both stores were closed. When the
stores at the borders are reOpened, as they
probably will be some day, they ought to be
put to better use than they have been for
the past 20 years.

Rev. j. W. Vaughan, the speaker of the
evening, was then introduced, and gave a
most helpful address on Christianity, tax
ing for his special message Remember
Jesus Christ" He brought out the fact
that it is essential for us to remember Him
in his human form, as he was as teacher.
Christianity, he said, is not system, not a
science, not a dogma. 1t is a life, depend
ant upon the personality back of it. Then,
he said, we must remember Christ as the
conqueror, who overcame all things, and he
spoke of the necessity of determined and
continued efforts, fewer words, and more
deeds, of less fault finding and more accom-
plishment.
at the close of Mr.. Vaughans address
there was brief and impressive consecra-
ton service before the hymn which pre-
ceeded the final adjournment. The con-
ference was an especially helpful and in
spring one, and it was to be regretted that
there were not more societies represented.
Both Searsport societies had large and en-
thusiastic delegations present, the Sears
port Harbor people remaining until the
close of the evening session.

CEMETERY NEEDS WORK.
Streets Are Neglected Because Of
Lot Contracts.

The Abilene cemetery needs some
work done on its streets. The main
streets and the cross streets alike are
in a ragged, weed-grown condition
that is not creditable to the city.
The cemetery sexton says he has not
time to do this work. He has 20
half lots to keep clean under contract
at 50 year which money goes to the
city. This takes about all his time.
He receives $40 month and cannot
accomplish single-banded all that is
required of him. The city should
look into this. The whole cemetery
ought to be kept in attractive condi.
