Hebron Academy..An Appeal.

The athletic field at Hebron Academy
for the number of years In use has scored
more victories perhaps than that of any
other school in New England, but II any
one not familiar with 1t should examine
it, he would be surprised to note the
unfltness of the field for running and for
good work. In spite of this, victories
have been won and limbs have not been
broken, but an accident has been invited
every time boy has run upon certain
portions of the athletic field.
Two years ago determined effort was
begun by alumni with the aid OF the
principal to raise money enough to take
the earth that makes an ugly appearance
north of the athleric field and bring 1t
down on the athletic field making that
adequate and beautiful and the campus
between the athletic field and Sturtevant
Hall a landscape beautiful to the eye.
We have now $500 with which to do
this work which has been laid out by an
engineer who is supervising the actual
grading now with six pairs of horses and
Q proper number of men, but the engi.
neer tells the committee of the Board of
Trustees having the matter In charge,
namely, DR.. N. N. Marshall of Portland,
Hon. j. s. Msxcy of Gardiner, and F. o.
Stanley, ESQ, of Newton, that with
$500 be can finish the athletic field but
cannot complete the landscape north OF
1t. he can complete the whole admira.
bly, making q safe field and exact quarter
mile running track, flush and grade the
campus for $500 more.
This appeal then is to the friends OF
the school, of sport, and of education,
and to former students and alumni to
come to the rescue at once. Any gift
| from 81 up will be acceptable and 1t Is
hoped that every loyal friend Of the
Academy or former student or alumnus
will send to Principal W. E. Sargent or
Treasurer E. G. league such contribu.
ton as he is inclined to give toward fin.
ishing this work already begun. If the
engineers plan we're before. you whom
We hope and expect to help, you would
give generously and at once to grade the
campus and athletic field. This done,
Hebron Academy will have one of the
most attractive, beautiful, and useful
Fairgrounds and landscapes to be found
in any school anywhere. Nature has
given unusually attractive features In
the location Of the Academy. The engi-
neer with 5000 more will make the cam
pus, athletic field and quarter mile track
splendid setting for the school and
buildings.
Please respond to this appeal at once
until we shall secure the necessary 5000.
Any contribution will be most gladly and
approximately received and six weeks
from now, If this $500 is secured, the
visitor here will see q reality that will
make him glad that he contributed and
that promptly.

A particularly bold piece of thievery
was perpetrated at the Benjamin Shute
farm ct West Hancock one day last
week, when young steer was killed and
butchered In the pasture and hide and
meat carried of. The thief drove into
the pasture by q woodroad through
swamp, apparently with one horse and
an express wagon. The steer was killed
and dressed In an alder thicket, hardly
stones throw from the house. There
we're evidences that the thief was o
skilled hand ct butchering. 1t 10 be-
lieved the work was done by daylight,
probably In the early morning. Mr..

Lsosnd Of the sunken Bells.

Somewhere beneath the soil Of Sus
sex, England, there lies peal Of
bells, while In the church near by O
solitary bell calls to prayer. In the
middle ages. 1t is said. certain val
liant knight wished to present to the
church q peal Of bells that should be
of use and perpetuate his memory as
we'll, but the vessel that brought them
cnreened on approaching the harbor'
and the bells fell out and sank into the
mud. Thereupon the donor declared:
Never shall the church have chime
until that peal I give 1t be dragged
from the sea by a team Of four milk
white oxen"
The oxen seem to have been difficult
to obtain. At any rate, the fact re-
mains that to this day the edifice to
which the pious knight made his bene-
faction has never possessed more than
a single bell.
