 Thrift of German Soldiers.
 Berlin, Jan. 15 That the German soldier has carried with him into the war his weu-known habits of thrift is shown by the amount of money that he is sending home to his fam fly. A st-off1ce official of Dresden has recently shown in a public ad- dress that the amount of money sent home hxssoIdaers for the Dresden pos tai district in November reached $550.oQ0. Assuring that the like ratio prevails for all the rest of Ger many he estimates that the soldiers sent home SPA, 4,oo0. .ooo in November This sum appears all the more strik- ing when it is recalled that the pay Of the German private soldier is only about 2 cents a day. The amounts sent through the post office are often less than $2.5 50, and in not a few cases less than one dollar.
 A Socialist paper commenting upon these large savings remarks This large sum of $24, 900, 00o reflects the sobriety of the German soldier, his intrinsic decency and his strength of charaeter, even fn the widest tur- moi1 of the sbitterest struggles of hia- tory he does not forget the good hab- it's of his home which he formed in times of peace.

Cecilia's Plans
for the Season

The Cecilia Choral Society, the pioneer
musical club of Waterville. recently held
it's annual meeting at which new Off
GERS were elected for the. ensuing year.
The officers have outlined plan Of
publicity whereby the scope and aim
of the clubs work might be laid before
the musical public of our city.
1t is generally known that this society
trains its members as body. in choral
work and forms part of the grand
chorus of the Maine State Festival AS
sociation which conducts annual musical
festivals in Portland and Bangor. --
The rehearsals are held weekly at
which time the chorus work of the pros
pective Maine festival is taken up. and
the members given IA splendid drilling
in the worlds greatest music. The d.
rectorship Is in charge of experts. There
are. no dull literary or musical lectures.
nothing but good wholesome music, we'll
sung. Local soioists of note who are
numbered among the membership will
contribute from time to time to the
entertainment of the chorus. The society
is, composed largely of those who have
had no musical training other than that
the idea must not go abroad that the
club is for trained singers only. 81
All music lovers in Waterviiie are in
terested in a movement which aspires
to a promotion of expression in song.
Here is an invitation to get back of a
movement that means much to the COM
munity. Neighboring Maine towns and
cities have gone far ahead of us in work
of this nature but with your coopera-
ton with this society Watervlle will
speedily take her proper place as a mu-
steal community.
The society meets at 80 Monday eve
nings in the vestry of the Congregation
al church and every reader of this ar
ticle is asked to feel that this is a
personal invitation to meet with the cho-
raj society and learn more about this
work.
Mrs. F. E. Boothby. the president, and
Mrs. James L. Dean, chairman of the
membership committee, will gladly eX-
plain any desired detail to anyone who is
interested.
