Quarterly dividend of S125 per share recently declared. payable Jan uary 20. 1917. is at the rate of s5 ner share per year. which while large. is very conservative in view of the excellent earnings of the past year and those assured during 1917. This hasis was established last April

! Mrs. Rebecca Waite Dutton is a re,
markable woman. She is remarkable
| for many reasons, chief among them
| that she has reached the age of 81
years and, is in fair possession Of her
faculties. She is great reader re-
members what she reads, is we'll post
led in the affairs Of the day, watches
with the keenest interest all the pro-
ceedings at Washington. d. c., thinks
, that Woodrow Wilson Is the IMAM for
the occasion and that he has done just
! fine in maintaining peace. is greatly
| concerned over the great conflict
across the water and enjoys a good
love story. Mrs. buttons eyesight is
poor but still she will not give up her
beloved reading. Each morning before
breakfast she must have the Kennebec
Journal which she reads through and
through, letting nothing escape her no
tice. Her day would not be started
rightly until she had read her Journal
to see what was going on at Washing
ton, to follow the movements in the
war zone and to read all the news
But l have quite gotten ahead of my
story, being so Impressed by this re-
markable lady and now l must retrace
and begin anew in approved news
paper style.
Mrs. Dutton who was 81 years of age
today. the second day of the New Year
makes her home with her daughter
Mrs. Charles Dyer, IA Western avenue
On her birthday Mrs. Dutton was at
home during the day to her friends
who called to offer congratulations
She was the recipient of many birth
day postal cards and other remem-
hrances and all in all the day proved
a most pleasing one for her. She was
born Rcbecca Waite, her father being
Holland Waite and her mother was
Lucy Beale Waite. The date of her
birth was January ., 1926. and her
birthplace was at North Arson. There
her folks who were among the early
settlers of the place built rough
hewn log house on the hill top, which
! overlooked the beautiful Arson valley.
The hill on which this house stood was
one of three which formed a natural
wall for the valley and which is one
OF the most picturesque spots of SOM
crset county The early history of the
Waite family is rather confusing for
Mrs. Dutton to relate for dates and
names az mixing to one of her years.
But without a doubt the family which
/ lived on one of the three hills later
built a house in the valley and that
house stands today as it did when Re
becca Waite was q wee girl The old
/ log house was either moved away or
destroyed as no trace of it remains to-
I day. Rebecca was one of eight chill
dren, all of whom have since passed
away with the exception of herself,
the eldest, and Oliver Waite of Lyons,
Neb., the youngest. The ancestors of
the Waite family are indistinct mem
cries to her. but Judge Waite, promi-
nent Western lawyer is a descendant
! from the same family.
