REPORT OF PROCEEDINGS At ANNUAL.
MEETING Of TOWN OF SKOWHEGAN
R. F. Parker Reelected d--$lOOO Raised for Ii
brary--$2OO for Medical Inspection

the election of Mr.. Ford by a majority
of about 100 votes.
Dr. Stinchfield was reelected to
fill a place on the school board with
margin of 204 over J. W Fogler
opposing him.
Article was disposed of by elect
ing Miss Louise Ooburn, Park Com
missioner for three years, and elect
ing Miss Gertrude Weston to fill the
unexpired term of her mother, Mrs.
Clementine Weston.
A committee of twenty to look over
the articles in the warrant and make
recommendations on them to the
meeting was authorized by the town
meeting last year. 1t was suggested
that instead of giving one summary
report embodying the. whole number
of recommendations that the. com
mttee report separately on each Ar
ticle as ii came up for settlement
B. A. Sawyer, chairman of the com
mittee, made the reports on each Ar
ticle as the suggestion met with the
unanimous approval of the voters.
The committee recommended that
the sllnl of $500 be raised for max
ing and repairing highways, and this
recommendation was supported by
the subsequent vote of the meeting
1t was moved and passed that
$1,000 be raised in addition to the
amounts regularly raised and ap-
propriated for care of highways and
bridges as allowed under the prov-
si0ns of Chapter 112 of the Public
Laws of Maine for the year 1907. as
amended by Chapter 50. Public Laws
of 1909.
1t was settled that $4,000 should be
raised for making and repairing
bridges; $1,000 for making snow
roads, and $4,000 for support of
poor and to defray town expenses;
$3.50 was the sum voted to be raised
for a night watch.
1t was voted to raise $2,65 to light
the streets for the ensuing year. and
a committee of three was authorized
to consult With c. J. Abbey concern
ing rearrangement of the lights
and some changes in candle power.
This resulted in the passing over of
all Articles referring to lights
1t was voted to raise $500 to de
fray expenses of the Fire Depart
ment for the coming year Over Ar
ticle 26 there was considerable dis
cussion. The committee ON recon-
mendations recommended that this
article be passed over Several
spoke in favor of raising the desired
sum. A. X. Butler, as chairman nf
the fire commission spoke very
strongly In favs- - f,.O.tdfm6 lhe
funds necessary to equip the depart
ment with horses and hose wagon
He said that the present equipment
is so inadequate that it Is slow In
getting to the scene of fire, and that
fires get too much headWay before
the apparatus for fighting them is at
hand. He suggested that the ex-
pense of keeping the team of horses
would be lessened by working them

her theme and she convinced her
hearers at once that she was well

nails. Lack Of space forbids the re-
production OF the address but a few
points of greatest Importance may be
touched upon.
Mrs Mead declared that Uncle sam
is making a great mistake in spending
so many of his dollars on big war
ships and armament. Her arguments
seemed to be calculated primarily TO
show that the navy does not need to

preparation for possible future war.

ments Mrs Mead made the rather
startling statement that Americans
are a lawless people anyway. Men

said that already SSo0.000.0o0 have

After the speaker OF the evening

FARMER KILLS

Cause of the Act.

John Jacobson. Swede who lived
about seven miles from North Anson
village. shot himself late Saturday
night or early Sunday morning with
a double barrelled shot gun Neigh
bors of the unfortunate man noticed
last week that he seemed mentally
deranged. and Saturday he seemed
especially unsound of mind When
he failed to appear Sunday morning
neiRhbor. fearing that he had either
fallen ill or had injured himself, went
to the farm house where he lived and
found him lying dead on the floor.
His face was contorted and legs drawn
great agony before life became eX-
tinct. There were smrehes of blood
about the walls which seemed to in
dicate also that the man lived some
little time after shooting himself and
staggering round the room rubbed
against the places where blood was
found. The shot entered his left
breast an inch or two above the
heart; il was evident that he had in
tended to blot out his life more
quickly than he did. The charge
went completely through him. tearing
large piece OF flesh off his back, and
he bled so badly that it can he said
literally that he died welterine in his
own blood.
Jacob Jacobson was farmer and
had lived on the farm where he

months or since last fall. He lived
there in the farm house all alone. His

ment, instances of dull pupils and ir-
regular attendance
He mentioned the results of the
investigation of the Russell Sage
Foundation in the schools of New
York city and their bearing upon the
physical welfare of school children.
If these figures from the schools of
New York may be taken as trustwor-
thy. then the speaker argued. the
State of Maine is wasting a large
sum each year in trying to impart in
struction to pupils whose attitudes
and abilities are lessened through
perfectly remediable physical de-
fects. The speaker pointed out the
fact that the condition of good health
among school children is of short
duration, reckoning the summer va
cation as health producing season
end the reason for the shortness of
this period is due to the ignorance on
the part OF pupils and parents of the
few rules of personal hygiene.
Continuing. he said:
1T will be seen at once that these
questions are of far-rcaching i'm
portance because they affect the very
foundation not only of our public
school system but also of Our whole
system of government. They are
questions ofsuch importance that they
ought to interest every man ard wo-
man in every municipality of our
country that these questions may be
settled speedily and we'll.
From such facts and opinions we
may we'll consider the arguments

ness, slight fever, night sweats,
wheeling in the chest. and dyspepsia.
The exhibits of school work were
excellent and reflected great credit ON
pupils and teachers alike. The work
of the first grade in particular was
remarkable, and it seemed almost i'm
probable that children in the first
grade could do such fine work. The
work of more advanced grades was
proportionately creditaDle.
In the evening the exercises were
opened with singing by the children.
The first speaker was William J..
Powers of Fort Fairfield. who spoke
ON rural schools. His address dealt
largely with construction and INSIDE
arrangement of school buildings. DR..
Estes Nichols of the Maine SaHator-
ium delivered an address that was
substantially an enlargement upon
the ideas set forth in the charts and
pictures in the tuberculosis exhibit.
DR.. j. r. HilPs address on Medical
anspectiun in lRubic Schools lis of es-
pecial interest to Skowhegan people
at this time inasmuch as an appro-
priation was made in the town meet
ing to provide medical inspection for
the schools in Skowhegan.
DR.. Hin said in substance:
Il have been invited here this ev-
ening to discuss with you a subject
of far-reachimg Importance sub
ject that concerns not alone the
present but the future progress of a
great American !institution. This in
sttution is the American public
school system, and the subject for
discussion is the physical welfare of
those for whom this institution has
been established.
Indeed. it is nothing but a truism
to state that upon the public school
system depends the present and flu
ture welfare of our Republic. In
this institution to which i have re-
terred made up of thousands of sep
arate branches scattered through ev-
cry state, county, city and town Of
the nation, there are trained young
men and women, the boys and girls,
who shall be called upon to bear the
burdens and responsibilities of the
government and to work out the
thousand and one intricate problems
of self-governing people.
"If this premise which leads to a
self evident conclusion is correct,
then you and as citizens, as stock
owners in this educational institu-
ton, are deeply interested in ques-
tions which promote or retard its
natural and normal advancement.
Furthermore, you who are teachers
and we who are members of the med
ical profession have much that Is Of
common interest, and 1t Is upon these
matters that are of common interest
that I wish to address myself parti-
cularly tonight. Let me come
promptly and clearly to the discus
st Is important to note that the
most serious problem confronting the
teacher and school official arises
from the cases Of arrested develop
