6, OF q, WINTER SPORTS
COMMITTEE TO MAKE IT'S
PRELIMINARY REPORT

COMMITTEES of 30 Men and Women
Will Consider Plans for Making
Capital City a Winter Resort
Winter Sports az New EnsIand's
Newest Industry
Winter Sports has been called New
England's newest industry. M. l..
Harris, general passenger agent Of
the Maine Central Railroad, has made
a study Of New Englands possibili-
ties along these lines and has written
a splendid article covering all phases
of the subject which appeared in a
recent issue Of Current Affairs" the
weekly publication Of the Boston
Chamber of Commerce.
Along this same line the Augusta
Chamber OF Commerce realizing the
superior advantages enjoyed by this
city through her steep hillsides. her
nearby lakes. her river, and her ex-
hilarating winter climate. coupled
with her prestige as the capital city,
is actively interested In developing a
comprehensive program or winter
sports in this city. To work out such.
a plan a committee of thirty includ-
ing both members and non-members
of the Chamber and made up OF both
men and women will meet on Thurs
day evening of the present week to
discuss details and make preliminary
report to the directors.
Quoting from Mr.. Harris article
we find the following very interest
ing facts:
More and more each year we are
discovering the real value of the win
ter climate of New England. Maine
and the White Mountains are rapidly
coming into their own as winter re-
sorts. Each year the number OF WIN
ter vacationists has increased until
now over three score hotels have been
opened to them. Long toboggan
slides have been built, Kinks estab-
lished, and equipment enlarged to
meet the demand.
Poland Spring is the foremost
winter resort in Maine. Snow. ice,
crisp and invigorating air and sun
shine are not peculiar to this resort,
however, but may be had all over the
State. Rangeley. Moosehead, and the
Belgrade districts offer much to the
winter vacationist. Everywhere can
be found groups of vacationists reap
ing the benefit of the jolly out-of-
door vacation. The towns and cities
that border along the Kennebec and
other Maine rivers afford great OPP
portunity for the enjoyment OF out
door activities. Right here in New
England we have attractions that
cannot be equalled by the conven-
nSs
$50 the next time you feel tired ana
desire a vacation you should run to
some winter resort, if only for the
weekend, and you will be enrolled as
one of the growing society of en-
thusiasts for this sort Of thing. You
will come back happier and healthier
and ready to tackle the problems OF
life with a new vim. You only have
to try it once and the great outdoors
will do the rest"

ASK THAT STEPS
BE TAKEN TO ABATE
DUMPING NUISANCE

Mayor Fogg and the Augusta Board
Of Health have been requested by citi-
zens who have homes in the vicinity Of
the intersection Of jackson and Cap
itol streets to take steps to abate the
nuisance which exists in that neigh
borhood through the use of vacant
lot in that location as a public dump.
Previous petitions to the board of
health have resulted in the posting of
signs on the lot to the effect that only
ashes and clean dirt shall be dumped
there. To this the people of the neigh
borhood have no objections. but the
privilege Of using the lot for a dump
ing ground for ashes has been abused
until now rotten apples, orange skins,
decayed vegetables. old tin cans and
other garbage litters the place, even
to the edge Of the sidewalk. This gar
bage makes a breeding place for flies
which become a menace to both health
and comfort during the hot weather.
