NOVEL AND BEAUTIFUL
DISPLAY
More Than One Hundred Varieties of
Dahlias to BE Exhibited at the Fair

Visitors to the Fair Grounds to-
morrow and Saturday will be greeted
by novel and beautiful sight in the
exhibit hall. Here will be displayed
on those two days more than one hun
dred varieties of dahlias This dis
play embraces nearly all the improved
varieties of this beautiful flower, and
several new varieties not known to
this locality. This exhibit comes from
the dahlia farm of E. K. Weathern
Sons of Pennington, the most exten-
sive and successful growers of dah-
lias in the State. 1t cannot compete
for premiums as it comes from with
out the county, but has been secured
by the management of the Fair as
special feature of the Exhibit hall.
The exhibit will be in charge of Mrs.
F. l.. Flynt who will be pleased to
give visitors any information.

Death of Harold {. Merrill

The death of Harold c. Merrill oc-
Cured Sunday at Hebron. where he
had been receiving treatment for tu-
berculosis The end came as a shock
to Skowhegan acquaintances, al
though more intimate friends were
aware that his condition had become
serious. His age Was twenty-five
years and he was a native Of Augusta,
where his father, George W. Merrill,
resides. The remains were taken to
that city and the funeral was held
there yesterday.
For some eight years Mr. Merrill was
resident of this town, having been
connected with the First National
Bank as an accountant He was an
especially valuable adjunct to the
SkoWhegan banking force and so
competent was he in his work for his
employers. that for a year after his
health began to fail his name was still
retained on the pay roll aud his posi-
tion was held open for him.
Early in the present spring Mr. Mer
rill was discharged from the Hebron

HAROLD SAWYER SUSTAINS IN.
JURIES FROM A FALL
Was Working on the Mill on the ISL
and. VIII Probably Recover.

While working Saturday on the mill
being built by Contractor Irving Gates
on the Island by the Central Me Pow
er Co. for the occupancy of E. E. Fair
brother, Harold Sawyer fell from the
cross beams to the floor a distance of
nearly fourteen feet. 1t was thought
that his head might have come in con-
tact with some high voltage wires,
and that that might have been respon-
sible for his sudden fight through
the air. He landed on the left side of
his head and body, straining his right
wrist and otherwise intlicting injuries
upon himself. He was taken in a un-
conscious condition to the residence
of Mr.. Gates and later was removed
to his home on Alder ST. He regained
his consciousness to a certain degree
on Sunday although for a consider
able period thereafter he was out of
his head at times. He will probably
entirely recover
