Mrs. Frances A. Coombs. widow of Levi T.
Coombs of Lisbon, died at her home in Holden,
March 18th, after short illness. She is sur
vived by two sons, Walter F., laundryman;
Simeon F., U. S. railway mail clerk, both of
whom reside in Bangor, and a sister, Mrs.
Flora Turner of Charleston. Mass. Mrs.
Coombs and her sister, Mrs. Flora Turner, who
is now resident of Charleston, Mass. shared
for many years the distinction of being the
oldest twins in the State of Maine. Born in
Belfast in 1925, she was the daughter of DR..
Simeon Foss, well known and very popular
physician of that time. The death of her
mother occurred when she was two and one
half years old. and upon her father, man of
sterling integrity, devolved the duty of coun-
selor and advisor. That his counsel was good
and that it did not pass unheeded, may be
shown in the fact that throughout her long and
eventful life she had never known days
sickness. She married Levi T. Coombs of Lis
bon. who for long time was deputy sheriff
OF Androscoggin county and here in her old
home they lived happily for many years: Al
though Sc years of age, the deceased was
bright and active to within a few weeks and
her death will come as great shock to her
many friends She was woman of upright.
Christian character; kind friend; and de-
voted mother.
DR.. Foss came to Belfast between 1877 and
1926, but beyond notice of his serving on the
jury there is no further mention of him in

all over the State, and especially in Wal

and sobriety. Fathers and mothers who
keep the home free from even the scent

danger of becoming drunkards. This is
true of the most of the homes of Maine
and doub]y true as applied to the farm

The people have felt, and still feel, that
prohibition is their right; they have
thought and are now thinking that con-
certed efforts on the part of officials
would lead to reasonable enforcement.
Public sentiment stands by the law, and
it feels righteous indignation because
the present party in power, having
pledged itself to enforcement, is making
no attempt to enforce but standing back
and whining sit can't be done."
The people of Maine have refused to
give up prohibition in face of the fact
that the State and county officers have
been using their positions to work up a
sentiment against law, instead of try
ing to enforce it as they pledged them
selves to do.
We, the people, are now taking on,
sober second thought and public senti-
ment is crystalizing around the law and
it will make itself felt in the near flu.
