IN RECRUITING

Canadians kilties or it may have been
a clever recruiting scheme for the
same regiment, but anyway it is an in

George F. Reynolds of No. 1870 Water
street on Monday morning found on
the railroad track near his house a
folded collapsable lunch box, of the
black boxboard variety, showing signs
of use but now empty so far as food
was concerned. Its contents consisted
of a bit of an used envelope, on the in
side Of which was printed in ink and
in capital letters the words:
DON'T BE A Stacker. JOIN
THE Kills.
The othed side of the scrap Of paper
bore most of an address, which was
probably the name of the writer and
consisted of the following:
"-seph Foster Taunton, Mass.
Locust street"
So that. If Joseph has left home
without telling his people where he
was bound, this little item would be in
line of telling them that he is un-
doubtedly with the Kilties some

BOX FROM HOME
FOR co. M BOYS

1t may be stated. lest anyone should
gain the erroneous opinion that our own
Co. NJ boys, far from home, although
pleasantly located at Greenville juno
ton, had been forgotten by all hands,
that instead of that they have been
well remembered. The ladies of the
Penney Memorial church especially
had the boys in mind and to that end
on Monday morning seven crates full to
the brim OF cooked food and cake was
shipped TO CO. M. in season to arrive at
about 7.15 last evening.
It is safe to say that a large sized
vacancy soon appeared in those crates
very soon after they entered the hands
of the boys and you may expect cards
and letters by the wholesale, all in
praise of the excellence of the cooking
and the thoughtfulness of the ladies
who prepared and sent the edibies.
Who knows but what some of the
men will soon be thinking of some
thing to send the same boys?

matters of business and reported to
some of his friends that he made a
good catch of white perch on the pre-
ceding day. There were about Is of
the fish, and his method Of taking
them was somewhat remarkable mas
much as when one man asked If he
caught them with worms he replied
that he used a rake This was ex-
planned however when Henry told the
ouestioner how the fish had become
caught against the screen at the Outlet
and held there until they were
drowned, whereupon he took his rake
and after lifting the perch out of the
water carried them home.

An unusual loss on account of the
recent freshet came to the Augusta
Water District. and was that of a fire
hydrant. The hydrant was one that
set on the river bank down back of
the mill of the Cushnoc Paper Co.,
and for protection was enclosed in a
little house built for the purpose. 1t
is not known where the hydrant went
or when it went, but it is supposed
that some of the logs which came
down river 1T that time upset the
house and also the hydrant. 1t was
discovered soon after, however, that
the water was coming out of the pipe
at a good rate and no time was lost
in shutting it off.
