NORMAN SCHOOL NOTES.


All the members of the education al
committee of the legislature were here
Friday, visiting the school in the after
noon, taking supper at Richardson hall,
and attending the basket ball game at
Emerson halt in the evening. Ralph
Brewster of the committee, a former prin-
cipal Of the high school here, was the
guest Of Senator Kicker over Sunday.
An interesting double basketball game
was played in Emerson hall Friday even
ing, under the auspices of the Eastern
State normal school athletic association.
before the largest crowd OF the season.
ing the Bucksport seminary and the
normal school was closely contested, the
normal school girls winning by score OF
1912. The visitors showed skill in play
and line spirit in defeat. The normal
school team, chosen from the now dis
banded Reds and Blues, played it's first
outside game as unit. The Mohawks OF
Castine defeated the normal school boys
in very decisive manner, the score being
ST., but the spirit OF the latter team is in
no wise broken. They realize that the
best way to learn the fine points of any
game is to play'it. Acting State Supt.
Starkey and the committee on education
from the Maine legislature were guests at
the game.

OBITUARY.

Josie, wife of Charles E. Googins, OF
this place, died Monday evening at the
East Maine general hospital in Bangor,
following an operation performed few
days before. Few here had larger circle
of frie DIS and acquaintance than Mrs.
Googins, and the news Of her death
brought sadness to many.
Mrs. Googins was born in Franklin
thirty-nine years ago, the daughter OF
William E. and the late Ella Salisbury
Tracy. Twenty years ago she married
Charles E. Googins, and for some years
they had made their home here. Warm
hearted, generous and genial, she made
friends quickly, and was the life of every
circle that knew her, and she will be greatly
missed. She was a member of Elinee
council, Degree of Pocah ontas, and OF La
moline grange.
She leaves besides her husband, one son,
Merle, her father, W. E. Tracy of Frank
bur, Mrs. Ira McGown, Mrs. Theodore
Bragdon, Mrs. Henry Bradbury, Mrs
George Bradbury, Mrs. Irving Rollins and
Misses Gladys and Beulah Tracy. The
family has the sincere sympathy of wide
circle Of friends.
The funeral was held this afternoon al
/ o'clock at the church at Hancock corner
Rev. P. A. A. Killam of Oakland, former

The association had . particularly pros
porous year and paid to shareholders o.
987N in dividends. During the year fifty
four shares matured, amounting to over
81 900, and were psid Oh. The increase in
new shareholders has been large % COM
pare with the previous year, and the &C.
cumulated capital is gradually increasing.
The secretary called attention to the adj
vantages to be derived BY borrowing of
the association. As is generally known,
the association charges interest at the
rate OF per cent, and also heretofore has
charged premium of Is cents per month
on each share, which it is true
adds to the interest payment Of
the borrower, but the borrower
at the same time is drawing interest at
the rate Of per cent. semi-annually on
his shares, and if the loan is allowed to
remain until maturity, the net interest
will figure less than s per cent. 1t gives
the borrower q chance to make small pay
ments and also to have these small pay
ments draw interest from the first day of
each month at 3 per cent. semi-annually.
Altogether, the association furnishes the
easiest, simplest and cheapest means by
which one may borrow. Many borrowers
have had their loans mature and their
mortgages discharged, and have admitted
that they had not missed The small
monthly pay ments.

TRENTON TOLL BRIDGE.
A Commen-Sense View of the Prop
osition to Make it Free.

A Commen-Sense View of the Prop
osition to Make it Free.
Judge E. N. Benson, OF Bar Har Dor, in a
communication to the Bangor Commercial,
points out the futility OF the latest plan
proposed for making the Trenton toll
bridge free. He writes:
"rhe project is, as l understand it, to
ask the legislature for authority to form a
bridge district and issue bonds for sum
OF bout $50, 900, with which to build a new
bridge and have the State remit to the
towns on Mount Desert Island all fees
received from the several towns for auto
mobile licenses, amounting to about $10,-
900, with which to pay interest charges
and form a sinking fund to retire the
bonds.
snow, it seems perfectly plain to me.
and to many quite substantial men with
whom have talked, tina. such propo-
sition would be Immediately turned down
by the legislature. In the first place, if
such a proposition went through then
each locality in the State would want the
same usage, which could not be granted,
especially in view Of the fact that our
present road bonds we're issued upon the
basis Of automobile license fees received
by the State. Again, why is it necess airy
to go into elaborate propositions? OF
course, q new iron or stone bridge would
be splendid for everyone and greatly ap-
preciated, but the moment the bridge is
spoken Of, then at once we must invest q
large sum OF money for new bridge.
"My idea is to pass necessary legislation
to take over the bridge just as it is, and
get 5000 to 10000 from the State to
repair it. l believe that is the only way
we shall get free bridge, which is the
first object to be obtained. The bridge
has been there and used for years and
years, ana with reasonable repairs will
stand for years to come. If it is taken
over now, in it's present condition, later a
new bridge can Us talked up or down as
the case may be-"

An Unusual Opportunity.

Everybody knows that shoes are going
up-away up. The announcement OF sale
Of shoes, therefore, offers an unusual oppor-
tunity. Everybody has to have shoes.
Sometimes they postpone buying, but delay
now means that they will have to pay
higher price when they do buy.
The Century Boot Shop Of Ellswo rth Is this
week advertising big four.days shoe sale
beginning Thursday, Jan. rs. cut-price
sale of shoe ON sky-rocketing market.
Doesn't look reasonable, does it, But there's
q reason.
Many of the shoes which are offered In this
sale could not be bought from the manu-
facturer to-day at the regular price. But
the retailer, ON account Of the present con-
dition of the market, cannot stock up In
sizes ON many of these shoes. Therefore the
Century Boot Shop is going to close OUT
whole lines to make room for entire new
lines.
It's a great opportunity for everyone who
wears shoes.-Adct
