QUESTION OF WATER DISTRICT
TO BE REVIVED

It now seems likely that the quea-
ton OF some change in our public
water system Is to be brought up in
the immediate future. SkoWhegan s
water supply is chiefly furnished by
the Skowhegan Water Company. a
corporation. There are several
aqueduct companies supplying a con-
siderable number Of families but the
larger portion of the town is out Of
reach OF this latter source. Spring
water to the extent of $2500 a year is
delivered from teams by F. p. Pennell
and William Green.
The plant OF the Skowhegan Water
Company was originally installed
about 1887. Its first important rela-
ton with the town was a contract
with the then existing Skowhegan VII
LACE Corporation for hydrant rental
for fire purposes The original price
was $4,000 per year and this increased
somewhat as other hydrants were
added This contract ran for TWEEN
ty years At its expiration there
was some delay but it was ultimately
renewed substantially in its original
form, the rental having increased,
however, to $500 with remission OF
taxes.
Two years ago there was an effort
to secure a charter for a water dis
trict with the idea that the town of
Skowhegan, purchase under an ap-
praisal, the plant OF the Skowhegan
Water Company. Amos X Butler,
Esq, appeared for the town at the
committee hearing at Augusta 1t
was assumed that the Skowhegan Wa
ter Company was willing that the
charter should be granted, and would
be perhaps, anxious to dispose of their
plant.
At the hearing, the treasurer of the
Company, the late Herbert Wentworth
was present, and with him S. w. Gould
Esq, who had always been prominent
In the Companys affairs. Mr. Gould
seemed to speak with authority for the
Skowhegan Water Company and stat
ed that he opposed the granting of
the charter This unexpected devel-
opment caused the matter to be aban-
doned and no charter was granted
1t is not expected that opposition
will again develop on the part of the
water company to the granting of a
charter
Skowhegan ought to have better fire
protection and better water for do
nestle purposes 1t could secure the
needed Improvement by simply de-
manding the necessary changes thru
the public utility commission. In
that event the commission would
compel the water company to furnish
ample supply of pure water. The
company would proceed to enlarge its
plant, and having done so and the
cost having been determined it would
OF course be permitted to raise its
rates to point which would produce
reasonable profit.
The other alternative and the only

About five o'clock Christmas eve

automobile onto the lawn at the Rev.

ping the machine jumped out and
beat hasty retreat When Rev. Ger
rett went ont to examine the machine
he found a card bearing the follow
ing inscription: ga Merry Christmas
TO the pastor and family from the
congregation" That the merry
part took effect Immediately goes
without saying. as it is reported that
the Rev gentleman forthwith danced

wife shed copious tears and the son
and heir gave good imitation of an
American Indian on the war path It
was surely Christmas gift TO be proud
of and will be appreciated by the re-
cepients-
When Rev. Gerrett accepted the
call to the paStorate of the Christian
found it laboring under a debt OF
nearly $4,000 and at once set to
work to clear up this Indebtedness
and by December 1st and had accom-
pllshed this purpose As an appre-
citation cf his labor IN behalf of the
church finances several influential
members conceived of the plan of
presenting him with an automobile,

influence of Rome.

There are many customs which still
proclaim the ancient rule and inf1u-
ence of Rome that have persisted
through the centuries since the de-
parture of her glory. For instance,
there is the old Pyrrhic dance, the
robes with bells on sleeves and girdIes.
The ROuman;9nS still shout in unison
to prevent Saturn from hearing the
voice of the infant Jupiter; and even
their oxen proclaim the "glory that
was Rome" in their names, for here
you may see Caesar and Brutus as
yoke fellows, and there Cassius and
Augustus.
