A Dry and Frozen Town.
BUT LITTLE WATER, AND BUT FEW PIPES
FOR IT TO FLOW THROUGH.

South Paris Is up against a serious
situation in the matter of water. 1t was
bad enough when individual water serv.
ices were freezing up one after another ;
but last week the hydrsnts and mains
began TO GO. Whole streets are frozen
up in parts of the village.
And then, to cap the climax, Monday
morning the supply gave out. The in
tense and continued cold has frozen up
the brooks, and the reservoir is empty.
For the past week the electric thswing
machine and all available workers have
been trying to reopen frozen pipes, and
haven't been able to keep up with the
freezes. While there is now snow
enough to be some protection, the cold
has been so intense, and the freeze was
so deep before there was any amount OF
snow, that the frost is being driven con-
tinuslly deeper.
Fortunately there are several spring
water systems with services well dis
tributed over the village, which make IL
possible to get small amounts of water
for domestic use.
II fire should get started, we should
be- most emphstically up against 1t, 20
let US hope that we may escape that.
With the pipes frozen as extensively
as they are, it must DO weeks before the
situation can be fully relieved under any
conditions, especially II the fierce colo
continues.

Charles F. Penley.

Charles F. Penley, who recently died
at South Paris, served three years in the
18th Maine Vol. Infantry. This regi-
ment participated In twenty. seven bat.
ties. 1t belonged to the Third Corps,
under Sickles, and lost one-third Of its
men at Getty sburg, killed and wounded.
Its position on July End was 10 and near
the wheat field and behind the stone
wall. At no time during this terrific
battle was 1t driven from its position,
bnt 1t fell back according to orders when
both TANKS were exposed by other por-
tions of the line falling back.
For more than two hours when fight
ing behind the stone wall the two lines
were not more than one hundred yards
apart, and sometimes only the stone wall
separated the combatants. Out of ten
color-bearers only three were left-either
killed or wounded.
At one time during this terrible ordeal
General Birney led the 18th in a charge
to recover and hold a threatened break
in the federal line, which the regiment
took and held.
Mr.. Penley's ancestors were good
Americans. His father was q soldier in
the war of.1s12, was taken prisoner and
confined q number of months in an Eng
lish prison ship on one Of the great
lakes. His grandfather was an English
man who left an English ship near Port
land and joined the patriot cause during
the war of independence. It is under
stood he changed bis name, so If cap
tured by the English he would not be
recognized. What his original name was
we do not know. After the revolutionary
war he settled at Danville and became
the founder of the Penley family of this
state. F. 81. PACKARD.

The Other Side Of .profiteerlng. :

60ttOT OeHOCT0t:
Ignorance of business affairs Is some
times ridiculous. ! noticed an article
In your issue Of the 9th signed "Aristo-
crat" that 10 good illustration of what
man does not know Of business to-day.
He says he bought suit Of clothes for
$S3 that had been "marked up" from
S21. Now that merchant invests bis
money, pays bis taxes, and keeps q stock
of goods where "ArIstocrat" can 60 and
buy clothes when his wife tells him his
are not At to wear. II the merchant was
not obliged to keep up bis stock be could
have sold the suit for $21 and made q
profit; but the merchant had got to buy
another suit to take the place of the one
sold, and s21 would not pay for it.
To ILLUSTRATED: The writer keeps In
stock few grindstones. They sell
slow, and We mark Q fairly good increase
over the cost price to sell. A year ago
had one cleft over" that cost me $S.76.
The selling price was $500. A customer
bought 1t, aud the next day the ''jobber"
who sells me that cline" was In my
place and sold me one to replace for
$5.75. "Aristocrat" would say that l
made 81 %, but business common sense
would say lost Is cents when I sold,
for the next day I had the same stock
and seventy. five cents less money.
I am glad "Aristoorat" is not Sin
trade" for If he was he would change
his mind in re "profteering," or he
would soon be In the hands of our friend
Walter L. Gray.
Yours very truly,

Mixture Of Many Languages.

Modern English Is composite OF
Latin and the language Of the ancient
Britons who were conquered by the
Romans, together with many Scandi-
navian words introduced by the Danes
when they conquered England. Ger.
man words brought by the Saxons,
and French words brought by the
Normans. There is scarcely language
that has not contributed something
to modern English. but those mention
ed have been the largest contributors.
Many technical words have been taken
from the Greek.

Only one material change was made
in revising the premium list. A class
known as "breeder's herd" is to be
added to the pure-bred herds, but the
details have not yet been worked ont.
Some change will be made in the
arrangement of the midway this year

grounds, and will be kept somewhat
farther away from the building, to avoid
the congestion in that part of the
grounds.
Secretary rockingham is already re-
ceiving applications from some who
want space on the midway, including q
number who have been here before. l,
is understood that some Of the shows
which were here last year are to be con

"Bargair sale I spyt"
"Should we hurry? should worry

In furry each did scurry
Swiftly TO the store.
Though they sadly said that badly
Could they spare the coin,
Very gladly they the madly
Showing crowd did join.

Each did strength expend
BY mantle power gigantic
Looking for the end

Then began 10 pull,
Pulling harder and ssill harder
TIL their hands were full.

That same piece would buy,
In q shady way the lady
BACKED that lady's eye.

ILLUSTRATED LECTURE.

written 0y Hester Ordway ".
A very pleasing lecture given by Rev. C.
w. Rogers and accompanied by stereop-
ticon views was enjoyed by the students
of Paris High School Wednesday after
noon, Jan. %. 1t was very interesting
to all but was especially helpful to the
pupils who are studying English history,
as the scenes were laid in ancient Britain,
taking it from the time of Martin Luther
to the time of the landing of the Pilgrims
10 America.
Most of the slides showed portraits Of
rulers or the most prominent and influ-
entail men of England, with glimpses of
their family life. Some Of the portraits
which were shown were of Savonsrola,
Martin Luther, Pope Leo, and King
James, who in his reign ordered the
Bible rewritten in what is now known as
King James version. Others shown
were of James I, son of Mary, Queen Of
Scots, Sir Francis Drake, Philip II, and
Prince of Orange, each of whom were
prominent in the affairs and wars of
England.
OF the women of the period, slides
were shown of Mary, Queen Of Scots,
Mary Tudor, and Queen Elizabeth,
who figured in the history Of the Pill
grims.
Much Of the lecture was of the wars in
which England was engaged in earlier
times, both with Spain and with the
Netherlands.
The latter part of the lecture was
about the beginning of the Pilgrims
faith, of their departure from England,
and later from Amsterdam.
Some of the portraits shown Of them
were Of Miles Standisb, Rose Stsndisb,
Governor Bradford, William Brewster,
and others.
One of the most fascinating pictures
was that of the Mayfower making it's
way across the Atlantic at sunset, ad-
vancing toward the unknown land which
they were seeking.
1t was here that the lecture closed,
leaving the Pilgrims to finish their voy-
age, and then to face the many hard
ships which awaited them in America.
