The Finance Committee would
therefore recommend that taxes be
raised for the coming year at the
same rate as during the past yc-~.
The Committee would also recon-
mend that the Finance Committee
pass on all bills to the Village and
indicate thereon to what fund they
are chargeable SO hat the Village
Clerk may issue an order on that
fund. It is also recommended that
the Village Clerk present at each
meeting list of salary payments to
Village Officers and employees which
will become payable the following
month, indicating on that list the
exact date of service which these
payments cover and that this list be
approved at each meeting by the
Council before payment.
1t is also recommended that the
superintendent Of the Electric Light
and Water Plant submit total list
of charges monthly to the Village
Treasurer for lighting service and al
so for any labor and material sup
piled and submit list for water SER
vice quarterly. A record of the to-
tails Of these lists should be recorded
and the Village Treasurer should at
the next Council meeting report the
unpaid items so that they Will bal
ance.
By careful planning we believe that
the Village Finances can within
few years be put on stable basis.

Yoa are often told to beware Of a
cold. but why? We will tell you:
very cold wcakens the lungs, lowers
the vitality and paves tkes way for
the more serious diseases. People
who contract pneumonia fret take
cold. The longer cold hangs on,
the greater the danger, especially
from the germ diseases, as cold
prepares the system for the reception
and development of the germs Of con-
sumption, diphtheria, scarlet fever,
and whooping cough. The quicker
you get rid Of your cold, the less the
danger Of contracting one " these
diseases. Chamberlain's Cough Rem
edy has great reputation a. . cure
for colds and can be depended upon.

l had 2 shoe shine machines stored
in a small sheet iron building at the
yard of the Currie Co, n. S. Carolina
and Mediterranean avenues, Atlantic
City. This building was sold to a par
ty who removed it. The building was
taken to Absecon, to be erected there
as an oil house. My goods, consisting
of 2 crates and a box, were removed by
someone without my knowledge or con-
sent. Upon investigating the matter l
found n of my crates in the posses
sion of the party who bought and re-
moved the building. This crate was
returned, as the party said it was of
no use to him. Several days after the
other crate was returned to the yard
secretly. | received no notice of it,
but found it there by accident. | have
reasons to believe that the party that
returned this second crate has the box
in his possession. This box contains
6 bronze foot rests, the shape of the
above cut; n electric motor, one
eighth horse power, fastened to a cast
iron base with 4 grooved wheels and a
switch to operate it; 2 flexible shafts
2 feet long, 6 circular brushes. about

cry OF the above mentioned goods.

This property has been the subject
of discussion before the several meet
ings of the North Anson Board of
Trade recently held. 1t was consi-
dered very important that this power
be developed for the benefit of North
Anson and vicinity. 1t is believed
that under the present ownership this
result will be reached.
This is considered to be very for
tunate outcome of the water power sit
uation at North Anson as it is well
understood to be for the benefit of any
community to have property of this
kind locally owned.
The above property was purchased
from the Carrabassett Stock Farms Co.
in about 1912 by Herbert Wentworth
and Bin w. Page of Skowhegan and
DR.. f. c Andrews and Frank Donley
of North Anson. Dr. Andrews and
Mr.. Wentworth have both passed away
and Mr.. DOnley sold out his interests
to Mr.. Page, so for some time he has
not been connected with the invest
ment. Eventually Mrs. Herbert
Wentworth and G.. Allan Wentworth
purchased the remaining three quart
ers interest and it was by them that
the present sale to Mr.. Bunker and
Mr.. Hume was made.

WATER POWER, SHANK FACTORY AND
REAL ESTATE At NORTH ANSON SOLD
F. w. Bunker and 7. G. Hume Become Owners
Of much Valuable Property

Negotiations have been completed
during the past few days by which
Hon. F. w. Bunker of North Arson
and T. G. Hume of Fairfield have be-
come the owners of all the water pow
er at North Anson and of the mill
stream so-called which is the outlet
of Embden Pond Included in the
deal were the Shank factory and Real
Estate on both sides of the river near
the present dam. At the same time
these gentlmen purchased as part Of
this deal several lots of timberland in
Embden and Concord 1t is not de-
fnitely announced what will be done
with this water power, but it is the
hope of the present owners to enlarge
and improve it in way which must
lead to the material prosperity of
North Arson and vicinity. Mr.. Hume
was for two and half years the gen.
eral manager Of the North Anson
Manufacturing Company, and during
that time was a resident of North An
son. He formed many pleasant ac-
quaintances there during that period
and has always had the interest Of No.
Anson at heart This transfer only
adds another item to Mr. Bunker's s
extensive property interests in that vi
cinity.
