of the Maine Central R. r. Co to the Lubec
Canning Co. of the land upon which their
plant is located was received and the board
voted to take care of the annual rental of $50,
thus carrying out the understanding with the
canning company that it should not be called
upon to pay rent. Messrs. John r. Dunton.
William H. Quimby and W L. West were an
pointed a committee to take steps for forming
realty company for building, buying, selling
or leasing property to for the prospec-
tive increase in population This committee
has already found, however, that the asking of
prohlbitlve prices for property is serious OBJ
stacle. 1t is not expected that people will sac
rlfce their home grounds, but unimproved
and unremunerative property is held at
prices that takes it out of the market.

this demand could be met if owners of real es
terms.
DEPoRTMENT AND PHYSICAL TRAINING. Mrs
A. {. Pote, who is spending the summer with
the Pitcher sisters at Bayside, Maine, recently
gave an interesting and instructive talk at
their home, which was filled with an appre-
ciative audience, upon Department and Physic-
al Training The speaker said, in part, that
the essentials of life are pure air, pure water,
pure food sunlight and exercise, and good
health depends upon the wisdom with which
we partake of these essentials Few people
breathe properly, never realizing that the more
we breathe the more we live; neither do they
drink enough pure water, which is the best
blood purifier in the world Every home should
be filled with pure air always, especially the
sleeping rooms. We need to breathe more and
eat less; reason, not appetite, should rule the
stomach, which is the work shop of the body.
Sunlight is wonderful purifier and promoter
of health. Allow it to shine in every room, es-
pecially the sleeping room. Every person
knows that exercise is most important Should
well person lie in bed nine lays he would not
be able to stand. At the close Mrs Pote gave
a scene from "As You Like IT, and several
poems, which were received with hearty ap-
plause.
