A Good Road Job Completed

The improvement, on the highway
just beyond Susie brook, has just
been completed. This consists of a
discontinuance of the Waterville road,
from its junction with the Canaan
road, little west of the Wesserunsett
stream, across Susie brook and up the
steep hill beyond. In it's place has
been. built splendid piece of high
way from the Canaan road, at about
the foot of Crawford hill, to a juno
ton with the Waterville road before
mentioned. Everyone will remem-
Der the steep, crooked, clay hill, be-
tween Susie brook and the residence
of A. f. Sandford, and will be very
glad to know that it has been elimin-
ated by this improvement 1t Is only
a pity that it could not have been done
years ago, thus saving the original
cost. and many years of maintenance,
on the most southerly of the two
Susie brook bridges.
The distance on this new piece,
from Crawford hill, on the Canaan
road, to its junction with the Water
Vile road is about 100 it. In doing
this work, there was about 1900 Gu,
yds. of excavation and Pill Gu. yds, of
fill. The result is a very gradual,
pretty grade, the whole way.
There was available, on this road
% oil
especially clay, but sand for the top
ping had to be hauled about half
mile from the Steward farm on the
west side of the Wesserunsett. Most
of the work, aside from carting, was
done with a wheel scraper. There
were employed, quite a part of the
time, crew of five men and five
horses. Along the easterly side of
this road, a part of the distance, a
stone retaining wall has been built,
for about a hundred feet. This is
five feet high, in the center. and tap
ers to nothing at each end.
The contract price for this job was
$162S This did not include the sand
surface, which has called for about
$40 mora Ephraim Corvette was the
contractor his bid having been some
thing like $40 lower than one sub
mitted by George H. Webb, his near
est competitor The work was COM
menced September LIST. Mr. Corvette
has not realized much of anything
more than fair pay, for himself on
the job. Bad weather and increasing
cost of labor have made the work I'M
usually expensive, He had to pay as
high as So per day for men, and SIS
and Sc per day for teams. Thru po-
tato time, he had to meet the compe
tition of the demand for potato pick
ers. for which was offered as high as
$4 a day Mr.. Corvette has done a
good deal of construction work of this
kind. He had charge of the first
crew which went to work, when
Shepherd & Anderson commenced the
construction of the present Somerset
Traction Electric Railroad, and also
had charge of the last crew taken off,
when that road was completed. He
recalls that he was on this Somerset
Traction job about two years.

Mr.. Lessard began working in the
Skowhegan Marble Works in 1861,

ously for Al years, retiring in 1902.
He was acquainted with many of
Skowhegan's most prominent citizens

in Skowhegan at the time of his
death
1t can be also noted that Mr.. and
Mrs. Lessard's birthdays were on the
same day, tho Mr.. Lessard was fifteen
years the senior. The birthday an
niversaries were always celebrated
with the whole family at home and at
the last celebration there were over
thirty-three children, grandchildren
and one great-grandchild present.

WHAT ABOUT 1T WATERyILLE2
Does Cancellation OF Football Game
SAVIOR of Real Sp0rtsmanship?

Last Saturday afternoon the Water
Vile High School football team was
scheduled to appear at Fairyiew Park
for a return game with Skowhegan
High But they didn't come. Not
only that but they didn't inform the
local management of the fact that
they weren't coming until Friday
night. Filters had been printed and
other matters of expense entered into
by the Skowhegan Athletic Associa-
ton in preparation for the contest.
Then came the word from Waterville
that they couldn't possibly come 1t
is a time honored custom and mark
of common decency and sportsman
ship for athletic teams to live up to
their schedules or at least to notify
the opposition in time to allow them
to get another game.
The laws of true sportsmanship do
not allow such actions either in pro-
fessional or amateur ranks without
inflicting a stigma on the character,
both of the offending school and their
athletes.
Wateryile may have a better team
than Skowhegan and perhaps the
competition which would have devel-
oped would not have been the keen
est. But Skowhegan High was ready
to take licking. They went to Wa
terville few weeks since, according
to their schedule, received thoro de
feat and came home feeling they had
done their best.
The writer has been following
amateur sports in this and other
counties for some time and in the past
three years has only one occasion
come before his notice where one high
school so forgot the rules of true
craftsmanship as to cancel game
without a real reason. The two
schools in question Immediately sever
ed all athletic relations and it would
be as well for the honor and tradi-
tons of Skowhegan High if they
would follow the same course with
Waterville High.

WALTER CAMPBELL IS
ELECTROCUTED
Found Dying on Cot at Central Maine
Power Station Tuesday Morning

Walter Campbell, aged %. Of Corn
vile, an employee Of the Central
Maine Power CO.. was found early
Tuesday morning, lying on cot at
the local power station With his body
badly burned. When discovered he
was unconscious and died a few min
utes later.
II is a mystery to those familiar
with conditions at the power station,
as to just how Campbell met his
death. Roscoe Abbey, another EN-
ployee of the company went into the
station and noticed the unfortunate
man lying on the cot. He noticed
nothing out of the ordinary until ne
approached the bed and then he be-
held a terrible sight. Campbell's
clothing was burned from his back
and cigarette stub lying on the floor
nearby led Mr. Abbey to believe that
he had set his clothing afre while
smoking. Aid was summoned and
when the clothing was removed it
was found that the victims body was
badly burned A physician was sum
moned but his efforts to revive the
man were useless.
And now the question remains as
to how Campbell met his death. The
huge dynamos at the plant are pro-
tected by iron ratings and on Mon
day night power was being supplied
by another plant outside the main
building. 1t seems improbable that
Campbell came in contact with any
high voltage within the building and
it also appears to those familiar with
electricity that if he had come in CON
tact with any great amount OF cur
rent he could not have survived long
enough To crawl to the cot.
Campbell had been in the employ
of the Central Maine about three
weeks

Facts from the POstoffiee

In the issue of last week it was
stated that post cards could go for
one cent if sent to local parties. This
was in error and truth to tell the
result nearly proved fatal to the local
postoffice force This week MAJ be
found below tabulation of facts gar
nered from one of the officials. They
are worthy of note and should be re-
membered by all who patronize Uncle
Sam.
l. Local letters require the same
postage as previously, cents.
2. All letters mailed from this Of
flee to any other office require a s.
cent postage.
3. Postal cards are 2 cents regard
less of where they are being sent.
4. Rates on parcel post packages
remain the same.
5. All parcels addressed to mem
in foreign service should not weigh in
excess of seven pounds.
6. Stamped envelopes remain the
same in price but require an extra
one cent stamp if sent to some other
office.
7. Packages which are to go to
England or France should be securely
wrapped and plainly addressed with
the name of the recipient, his regi-
ment and company and the words, U.
