great time. They were surrounded by
navy officers. l wonder when / look at
Gladys how she ever got her family to

JTyAR charity in a most original and In
w teresting form is being effected by
one Of Philadelphia's talented poetesses'
Mrs William r. Taylor, who writes under
the name of Nellie Rosilla Taylor, has
lust issued a volume entitled Heart Mes
sases from the Trenches" which Is a
compilation of letters written to her by
soldiers of the Allies and some or her
own poems.
At the beginning of the war Mrs. Tay'
lor began to write messages or encourage
ment 70 the soldiers, with the result that
she received hundreds In reply and was
also decorated by the British Government.
Many of the letters which she received
were so appealing in nature that MIS-
Taylor determined to have them printed
The entire proceeds Of their sale she is
giving to help the men who are hghune
the battle of democracy. Mrs. Taylor Is
.tonn,np at the Hotel Dennis, Atlantic
City, at present.
The book has a preface by the Honor
ablep Colonel w. X. McNaught' u M VI
There is also an American preface py our

R. R. STRIKERS
HOLD MEETING

There was a large attendance Sun
day evening at the meeting which was
held in the City Opera house by the
striking employees of the Maine Central
Rail- Dad. The speakers were j. H..
HUMPHREYS of Chicago and ]. H. Dryer
Of Boston, two of the organizers Of the
road There was also a fine musical
program. The meeting was opened by
a selection by Harlowe's orchestra,
after which there was a song by a
quartet of four young men, and a very
pleasing cornet solo by Hillard Saw
yer. NJ. E. Fitzgerald as chairman of
tho meeting then introduced j. r..
HUMPHREYS of Chicago as the first
speaker. Mr.. HUMPHREYS paid his re-
spects to Mrs. Livingston. whom he
said he heard speak in the afternoon.
saying that even if he had not believed
in woman suffrage he would have
after he had heard her speak. He said
that he lived in a state where there
was woman suffrage and that he was
thoroughly convinced that it was right.
He said that he hoped that every man
in Waterville would be intelligent
enough to vote next September to give
the women the right to vote. He liken-
ed the woman's suffrage cause to the
one in which he was now working, they
strug Cling for justice for women, he
for justice for the working man.
He said that it was a remarkable
strike in this city in that not one man
who had gone out had gone back. In
Bangor two men had gone back and
three had come out; in Portland one
man had gone back and he was being
protected by the machinists union, and
was a dcserter from the British navy.
SO nothing better could be expected Of
him. He closed by saying that no mat
ter how unjust the way the men were
used, it would only unite them more
end make them strive harder for vic
tory.
A song by Gladys and Doris Joler
followed and then Organizer J. Fl.
Dwyer was introduced. Mr.. DIVER call
ed a spade spade in no uncertain
tones naming a number of men whom
he claimed were working as scabs at
the shops and giving their history. He
said that the other night he spoke of
member of the machinists union who
was working against the men and who
had received their votes at a recent
election and that there had been some
doubt as to whom re fererred, but that
ne was going to name him and that he
was Fred w. Merrill. He told of the
work that was being done by these
men to break up the strike but declar-
ed that they and the officials Of the
road would be beaten within two
weeks.
The meeting closed with patriotic
song and Miss Marjorie Smith as Lib
erty.
