The Lewiston Journal reports the
illness Of w. A. Pidgin for many years
'he business manager of that paper,
and well known in the business offices
at least, OF every newspaper in Maine.
Mr.. Pidgin has long stood as notable
example Of punctuality and fidelity.
His happiest vacations have been
passed at his desk in the Journal Of
nee with his associates and workers
around him. There. he confided to
the writer years ago. he hoped to pass
from his earthly duties into the mys-
teries Of the Beyond. For nearly half
a century Mr.. Pidgin's every thought
has been Of the welfare of the Lewis
ton Journal and its publishers. He
was. for 80 years at least, the actual
watch dog Of the Lewiston Journal
treasury and guarded his trust more
faithfully for his employers than he
would have done for himself. He has
been a good disciplinarian Of Journal
workers from editorial rooms to car
rier boys but has preferred encour-
agement to criticism and earnestly de-
sired the close friendship Of all his as
sociates. Although long past the
age that most men retire. and carry
ing many more years activities than
granted to the average. it is hoped
that Mr.. Pidgin's newspaper career is
not ended, and that his familiar figure
may be seen at the next meeting OF
the Maine Daily Publishers Assn.

An item in the Bath Times recently
remarked that it would be pleasant to
know If there was any one living
who remembered Baths celebration
Of 1910. Mrs. Emma w. Brigham,
widow Of the late Henry Brigham,
informed Times man Tuesday eve
nidg that she was a little girl of six
years when that celebration occurred
and recalls very wildly the impress
sion she received from the exercises
held in the Old South Church on that
day. There was an Grafton to which
her mother had taken her in the
church and she remembers that
there was a long beam in front of
the high pulpit, stretched from wall
to wall across the church, and upon
the beam was perched a live eagle
Her mother had brought a bag of
cookies to the church for the child
to eat during the long exercises and
che remembers that she wanted very
much to throw some of the cake to
the bird which seemed to her to be
hungry.
