and actual want traceable almost en-
tirely to the use of intoxicants by the
husbands and fathers of destitute
families. The request will be based
on the figures obtained by Steward 8.
F. Barber of the almshouse after six
months observation of conditions in
the county institution.
Among other things Steward Barber
showed that during 1914 the average
month was 130; the average for 1915
has been 200. Most of them aside from
the aged and intirm of course are in
the almshouse as a result of the use
of intoXicants. The average number
of children maintained in the county's
institutions last year was fifty-seven,
to-day there are eighty, an increase of
hree-and-a-third per cent
and these youngsters had to be taken
care of by the county because of the
desertlon of drunken fathers. OF the
twenty eight families on the poor
boards pension list, twenty-five were
due to the desertion of husbands and
fathers. Twenty-Five of the husbands
and fathers were drunkards

AMERICAN EXPRESS co.
TO MOVE PRESENT OFFICE

The American Express Co. is plan
ming to make a change in the hand
ling Of its business in Waterville which
will result in a great saving to the
company and which it believes will not
in any way Inconvenience its patrons.
AS soon as arrangements can be made
the downtown office Of the company
will be abandoned and all the business
transacted from the ONCE at the sta
ton. This will involve making a num-
Der of changes at the station, includ-
ing the building of an extension on
the present station, and it is not GER
tain yet that arrangements can be
made for the railroad company to do
this. In case the company does make
the change they will have a sort office
which will be maintained in one OF
the stores on Main street for the re-
ception Of packages and the issuing Of
money orders. The company is doing
all possible to save money and 1t
seems to the officials that the highly
expensive down town Office of the
company could be abolished as well
as not and thus a big saving made in
the cost of handling the business in
Wateryille. The addition that would be
necessary at the station would make
practically no change in conditions
there it being probable that II would
be even better for an Office for the
mail transfer clerk would undoubtedly
be included in the new addition and
his building which is now in the pas
sageway between the east and west
tracks would be done away with. It
is expected that it will be several
months before the change will be
made. as it will take time to get the
building constructed and other changes
made. For a long time now more and
more of the business Of the company
has been done at the station. All the
deliveries to the city start from there
and only that stuff which is to be call
ed for is left down town. The officials
point out that large place is really
not necessary for this and that a small
Office or store will take care Of the
work equally as we'll as there is very
rarely anything very much in the ex-
press line to be stored there.
