For the Children of Belgium

Several thoughtful people of Skow-
hogan have asked us to publish an
appeal in behalf of the children of
Belgium and from printed matter
submitted by them We CLEAN the fol-
lowing facts.
After Two years and a half of war
ii appears that more than one million
Belgian children are slowly starving.
These are directly dependent upon
the food supplied by the relief COM
mission and most of this must come
from the United States. It is not
generally understood that. in times
of peace, Belgium imports IS per cent
of her bread stuffs. OF course, lit
tie has been harvested in that coun-
try since 1918 and imports have been
seriously interfered with. The COM
mission has so planned that S12 will
give a child one meal a day for a
year They make serious and
earnest appeal TO the men and wo-
men of Maine for help.
The Skowhegan Savings Bank has
consented to receive and forward
subscriptions. They may be left
there in person or sent by mail.

Baseball Plans for the Summer

There is a movement under way to
organize a baseball league composed
of the towns of Oakland, Madison,
Show hogan. Fairfield, North Nassai-
boro and Wateryille, each of these
places playing a local team which
shall be made up entirely of boys
residing in the town for which they
are playing.
While such a league if it is form
ball as has previously been enjoyed
BY residents of this section it would
result in the creating of a good deal
of interest If such a league is or
gained there are undoubtedly local
men who would be willing to do their
share in backing the undertaking.
Those who are willing to give their
time to the game ON an amateur
basis. will ask nothing for their SER
vices and if any money can be made
by the teams. it will probably be
turned over as fund for future use.
1t is expected that meetings will be
called very soon to take steps to get
the teams together
The Central Maine Fair Association
at Wateryille has offered the free use
of its grounds for the purpose to the
Watervile nine if organized, and it is
probable that the grounds would be
used instead of the college field for
which payment has to be made.

of the members of the Skowhegan
Fire Department. Thursday evening
of last week at which c. II. Smith
and w. II. Demo, members of the
Board of Selectmen, and Messrs.
Viles. Butler and Patten. Fire and
Police Commissioners, were present.
Mr. Smith was the principal speaker
and outlined plan for a sliding
scale of wages for members of the
department, porportioned to the
number of years in service. This
plan makes provision for reducing
the number of men in the depart
ment from As to SO. a vote was
taken on the proposition, the result
indicating that those present were
largely in favor of the change.
Mr.. Smith spoke also of appoint
ments of police officers recently an
nounced by the Commission. He re-
ferred to the fact that Frank P. Pen
nell, who has been chief of police for
several years, had not been reap
pointed He spoke very highly of
Mr.. Pencils services and expressed
his regret that his name had not
been included.
