BRIDGE GUARDS FIND JOBS
COLD AND TROUBLESOME

The men at work on the bridges as
guards report that it is proving a very
cold. hard job. The work at the upper
bridge in particular is exceptionally
cold, as the wind sweeps down through
the yards at a great rate and there is
no protection. The men there are pa
trolling the bridge to some extent as
well as just remaining at the ends and
this is hard and dangerous work as
trains are constantly passing and re-
passing and there is an inch or two of
ice and snow over the ties, which make
them slippery and hard to walk on The
railroad has promised to build q wind
break at each end of the upper bridge
and when that is done 1t will be much
easier for the men there. They were
kept fairly busy Monday as there are
a great many people who have been in
the habit of crossing the bridges and
these people have to be warned away
Then there are the railroad men whose
business calls them across and they
have to be identified before they can be
allowed on the bridge. The work will
be simplifed as the days go on and the
people commence to realize that the
guards on there mean business and that
they are in authority.

GUARDS AT BRIDGES
ATTRACT VISITORS

The guards or the bridges in the city
attracted a great deal of attention
Monday and many visitors went down
onto the Ticonic highway bridge and
watched the men at work there. The
idea of armed guards on the bridges
OF the city was a great novelty to most
people and it was also one that brought
home to them sharply that this coun-
try was near war. All sorts of reports
were flying about the city during the
day and the newspaper offices were
bombarded with questions as to how
serious the matter really was and was
there anything which was known to
them which had not yet appeared in
print. All We're informed that every
thing that the newspapers could get
regarding the situation was being pub
lished and that if there was more to
the situation than appeared on the
surface there was no one about here
that knew anything about it. The re-
mort persisted all during the day that
many guards had been put on duty at
he Hollingsworth & Whitney mills
and IT the other manufacturing plants
IN the city. but no one in authority in
those plants knew anything about it
or at least would ADMIT that il was so.
There is no question but what extra
mon have been tut on at the car shops
and in other places on the railroad
property but there seems to be no rea-
son to believe that the manufacturing
plants have called for extra guards.

| One Of the first official acts os a.,

the Free Mason's war hospital in Er,-

to the hospital in appreciation of tho
splendid work being done there for tho

BALDIC HELD ON CHARGE
OF ASSAULT AND BATTERY

Paul Baldic was before Recorder
Frank l.. Plumstead of the municipal
court Monday afternoon on the charge
of assault and battery upon the person
of Alexander Lafountaine. Probable
cause was found after a hearing and he
was bound over in the sum of $500 for
the April term of the superior court
and bonds We're furnished and he was
released. Baldic was arrested by Con-
stable Fred L. Simpson of Winslow and
brought before the recorder in the aft
ernoon. He pleaded not guilty. Lafoun-
tame testified that he had some trouble
with Baldic over the breaking of some
windows in the barn and over the break
ing of a hoe handle. He told Baldic
to get out and agreed to pay him what
he owed him Saturday night, the trou-
Bile occurring Friday. In the mixup that
cnsued Baldic hit him across the face
with a club and then got out. Lafoun-
taine's daughter, girl about IL years
old, testified that she heard loud voices
in the dining room, which adjoined her
bed room. and that she went out just
in time to see Baldic chasing her father
into the kitchen and saw him take up
a stick of wood from the wood box as he
went by. Heard her father cry out and
saw Baldic get out. Baldic. testifying
for himself said that he had worked for
Lafountaine several times before and
never had any trouble with him. This,
Friday morning, they had some words
and Lafountaine seized a knife and said
he was going to cut his throat, and then
he, Baldic. in self defense, took up the
stick of wood and hit Lafountaine
across the face. He then got out. The
story of none of the party was just
clear and the judge took action as above.

Mr. Dukas said that the society mad

Societies. and the announcement was
received with great applause. In re-
viewing the history of the society, Mr..
DGkaS said:
From humble beginning in 1892

during which year there were 22i loans
aggregating s1.2o5. and including the
first five years. when only 1921 loans.
amounting to s27,792 We're made. to this,
our twenty-fifth year. when 24.330 loans
aggr egating s711.a40 were made-nearly
three-quarters Of q million dollars-is a
far stride. We cannot look back with
out every reason for the expectation
that we will assist in the years to come
many more thousands of persons and
will lend an amount that, measured by
that Of last year, will be vast.
