Investigating Breaks

Deputy Sheriff Arthur R. Levensel-
Ter was busy Tuesday investigating the
breaks made Sunday at the Elkinstown
clubhouse and the summer cottages Of
Norman H. Fay and Winthrop L. Fay
on the shore of Lake Wassookeag. The
officer believes the breaks We're the
work of the same person and that they
We're all made Sunday. The condition
found on the interior of the cottages is
almost Understandable. Every part of the
cottages had been ransacked and the
contents thrown about. In the club
house not only was everything ran
sacked but acts Of pure vandalism
committed. During the past year many
breaks have occurred at cottages
about the lake and the owners feel
that it is high time that some move is
taken to protect their property.

MAY VOTE BONDS
Town Of Maple Mill Considering
Road Bond Issue Of $I5,000.00

The town board of the town of
Maple Hill is considering the pro-
position of issuing bonds for $4,000
or $4,000 for the purposes of i'm
proving the Gunf]nt road running
through that town.
This road is at present in need Of
improvement and we believe that
any money invested in this road
would be money we'll spent for the
town and county.
There is at present a special de-
mand for this road, as a mineral
syndicate wishes to bring in several
diamond drills for the purpose of
blocking out ore and getting ready
for putting it on the market. Aside
from this the road is extensively
used, and can now be used only by
wagons when in first class condi-
ton. While this road expense
should not fall entirely on the town
of Maple Hill, we have no doubt
but that if the APPLE Hill people
take the lead in building this road,
that the county will fall in line with
them and boost it with their aid, as
the Guntlint road is slated by the
county board for improvement as
soon as the shore road is a little
more nearly completed, according
to the present plans.
