held its session Thursday afternoon
at the Office at the Savings Bank

in attendance of the meeting.
E. c. Whittemore, D. D.. gave a
report in which he spoke of the
building of the new dormitory at Co.
burn Classical Institute and also OF
many sums which have been contrib
uted for Coburn, Higgins and Colby

pect for a large enrolment at the
three institutions for the coming
year, as many of the students have
been discharged from service, and
will resume their studies.

il seriously affected by the same condi-
tons that agect that road.
"Other conditions have arisen which
render 1t practically impossible that

Conspicuous among these are the mar
ket conditions arising out of the neces-
saFy government financing during the
war. the uncertainty whether federal
control Of this and other railroads will
be continued for any considerable
length of time and the general appre-
hension as to the effect Of their earlv

OF your petitioners these conditions Cd.
crate with peculiar force to depress the
market value Of stocks like those of
