S. T. DAVIS, Postmaster.

About seventy-five Knights of Pythias
and good representation of the Pythian
Sisters were out Sunday afternoon for
the services of Pythian Sunday. From
the hall they went at 2 o'clock to River
side Cemetery, where the graves of de-
ceased members were decorated, and
thence to the Universalist church. The
annual sermon, powerful discourse,
was delivered by Rev. Chester Gore
Miller. The singing was by/a male
quartette made up of Messrs. l.. S. Ses-
sions, Howard w. Shaw, Ralph Edwards
and Fred T. Hall. Mrs. Cora S. Briggs
was at the organ. There were good
number in the congregation besides the
members of the order.
K. c. Butler of Skowhegan was here
last week at work on the records at the
registry of deeds, and took large num-
Der of abstracts from the records on q
phonograph. The phonograph used for
this work is business machine, provid-
ed with both recorder and reproducer SO
that it is only necessary to switch one
off and the other on, and foot lever
which throws the cylinder out of gear
when Ii is desired to stop 1t. After
making the record the rsproducer is
switched on and the record is compared
with the book to make sure Of its cor
rectness. Later these records are turn
ed over to stenographer to write out.
Mr.. Butler says that he can get along
much faster in this way than In any
other.
