Foo the first time since its incep-
ton, 9 years ago, the Pownal Water
Co., finds that it is necessary 20 uree
water users to be sparing Of the
water. The supply in the reservoir
is getting low and unless rain comes
soon the town may find itself without
water either for domestic purposes or
TO fight fire. The use of water driv-
en- washing machine should be eilmi-
mated for the present and no more
water used in other ways than is
necessary.
The Christmas exercises of the
pownal schools took place in the
grammar school room yesterday.
! All three teachers, Misses Brimmer,
Grady and Aldrich had worked hard
and the fruit of their labor was
wen shown as every one of the chill
dren did splendidly. The school
room had been handsomely decorat.
cd for the occasion and the bright,
happy faces of the young people we g
reflected on the faces of the many
parents present These entertain
ments where the scholars have TO
| speak in public, are of great value
in teaching self confidence and we
arc glad that our teachers keep ny
this custom All those who took

acult to single any out for especial
