HIGH SCHOOL NOTES.

The senior class appreciates the
kindness of the school orchestra, un-
der the direction of Alfred Morang,
for playing at the class play.
The arrangements for the We-Hi-
Ka club minstrel show are complete,
and the program promises to be an
exceptionally fine one. The chorus
and soloists, under the direction of
Miss Erva l.. Giles, are composed ex-
clusively of girls, and many novelties
will be introduced. Homemade
candy will be on sale. The club will
use the proceeds to support its vari-
Gus activities, the surplus at the end
of the year going to the high school
fund. When the plans were formu-
lated six weeks ago, it was decided
that, on account of the various
school events which take place
through the year, the We-Hi-Ka girls
would do their part toward keeping
down the high cost of living by
charging the very reasonable price of
Is and 20 cents. Thus the public
will be getting a first-elass entertain
ment at pre-war prices.

Plurality
Memorial Resolutions.

The Union Trust Co. of Ellsworth
has adopted the following resolutions
on the death of Hon. Lucilius A.
Emery:
In the passing of Chief Justice EN-
cry, the lamp of life" went out of a
man OF more than ordinary ability.
He held many positions of honor and
trust, and filed them with marked
ability and success.
He has held official positions under
all three of the constitutional depart
ments of State-legislative executive
and judicial. He has been a member
Of the legislative body; county -attor-
ney and attorney general under the
executive branch; and both associate
and chief justice of the supreme judi
eial court of Maine under the judicial
branch. 1t is in the last-named branch
Of government that his record will be
most enduring.
His learned, concise and convincing
exposition of the law of the State will
nlumine the pages of the Maine Re-
parts of judicial decisions for all time.
His reputation as a jurist has gone far
seyond the boundaries of his own
State and his decisions have been. still
are. and will continue to be, held in
highest esteem in other legal jurisdic-
lions.
He was a man of refined literary
taste, and his writings and addresses
were scholarly. clear and impressive.
His services were much sought as a
lecturer on legal subjects, not only in
the law schools of this State. but in
Massachusetts, Connecticut, and pos
sibly in other states as well.
He rather prided himself on the cool
and deliberative side of his nature,
and disclaimed all sentimental consid-
arations, but he had heart much
warmer than he would admit, and once
you had his friendship. it was sure
and true.
AS a director in the First National
Bank of Ellsworth, and in it's worthy
successor. the Union Trust Company,
his services were Invaluable His
calm. unbiased judgment, and even
criticism. were abiding assets to those
institutions, and greatly aided to final
conclusions in the conduct of the bust
ness.
Therefore, be it resolved, That the
death of Chief Justice Emery was a
great loss to the State. county and
city in which he resided.
That it is an especial loss to the
Union Trust Company which he has
served so long and so well; and that
we. as directors, revere his memory
and shall greatly miss his wisdom
