Editor Kenncbcc Journal:
Watcrville. Maine. March The an
nual meeting of the Kennebcc Farm &
city Telephone Co was held today at
Room 10, Edith Building. in this city
Stockholders of the company from
Oakland, Sidney. Waterville and Bel
grace We're in attendance. James F.
Tebbetts Of Belgrade, was chosen tenn
porary chairman.
Reports of treasurer, clerk and of
auditor were made and accepted by the
company. The treasurer's report show
ed that Il complete rearrangCment of
Office accommodations has been made
during the past year ut Oakland. The
Office in the Durham Block in that
town was leased for a period of five
years. Contributions by stockholders to
the amount of about $40, were made
fer the purpose of helping to buy Il
new switchboard. A fifty-line Strom-
berg Carlson drop switchboard was in
stalled, and two operators employed
to take the place of the former one.
Thus the company has not only had to
take care of the expense Of the new
Office equipment and new wiring to
same but it has more than doubled
the cost of operating at that place.
However, the report showed that new
business had been obtained during the
year, sufficient to offset the additional
cost at Oakland, by reason of the
changes there.
The election of officers resulted:
Clerk. Mrs. f. l.. Ames, NorridgeWock,
president, Alexander Mills. Sidney;
treasurer and manager, f. l.. Ames,
Norridgewoek; auditor. james f. Teb-
belts of Belgrade.
A general discussion of the affairs OF
the company followed, during which
it was the unanimous sentiment, that
the cooperative form OF handling the
telephone business is gaining Sreat
strength each year. 1t was pointed out
that four of the sixteen counties of the
State are already organized and have
well developed systems under way
These counties are Somerset, Franklin
oxford and kennebee.
The matter of the recent decision
against this company. in the appealed
case from the town of Vienna was dis
cussed The facts show that the Mt.
Vernon Telephone Co, represented by
II. $. Russ and J. f. Hammond, of Mt.
Vernon, built some lines into Vienna,
some eight or nine years ago. They
have never installed night service, al
though all telephone companies of any

Gothann's Feeble Minded Children.

That $4,000 pupils in New Yorks
schools are feeble minded is the
startling charge made in a report
which has been compiled after careful
investigation for the committee on
school inquiry for the Board of Estl-
mate. Even in the high schools the
report shows that there are many
feeble minded children. a condition
which is attributed by teachers to the
fact that the pupils are not allowed to
stay more than two years in one grade.
and so are promoted whether they are
fit or not.
The realization of this condition has
confronted the city with the necessity
of discovering some remedy. OF the
possible solutions segregation and
colonization is suggested as having
many advantages but that this plan is
not entirely feasible is indicated by the
report which says, 1T is most unfortu-
nate that the one institution which the
have such reputation as to make this
solution difficult and often impossible
1t is possible to have colonies and in
situations SO attractive that parents
are eager to have their children placed
there. This has been demonstrated
| in many places the country over. I'm
| til we come to the point where we de-
1 eide TO take these children forcibly
away from their parents, whether they
are willing or not, everything depends
| upon winning the parents consent:
and this can be done if the institu-
| tions are conducted in the right way
and if entrance to them has been made
simple and pleasant"
With juvenile feeble minded school
population greater than the total
population of many county seat,
New York finds itself confronted with
an extremely serious condition. the
solution of which will be anxiously
!. awaited throughout the country.

The Hypnotic Revolver.

People shoot themselves in moments of
depression. or other people in moments
of passion, or themselves and others by
accident, simply because pistols are ut
hand They are bought with no definite
intention. but because there is certain
fascination about having something po-
tent and deadly, sense of power which
natters a very general instinct Or they
are bought because other people have
them and both boys and men like to be
i'm the fashion and to be as we'll equipped
as their neighbor. From variety of mo-
tives, often vague, often silly, but not
necessarily sinister. people become the
possesors of such things. Then ''how oft
the means to do i'll deeds makes i'll deeds
donel" For a man depressed by misfor-
tune or the reaction from alcoholic stiniu-
lation the pistol becomes an obsession
lie broods over it. he toys with it, and
one day he uses it upon himself just be-
cause it is there. Another uses,it to settle
some trivial dispute just because 1t is
ready to his hand.
There is hardly any need to go further
afield for explanation of the increasing
number of suicides They depend upon
the number of lethal weapons set in mo-
ton by a momentary touch, and many
would not occur if the means We're not
ready and easy. The same holds good
of crimes of violence. and the moral is
that a country which assiduously sehed-
ules poisons until one can hardly buy
medicine without a doctors order should
schedule with equal stringency weapons
