accordance Herewith.
"The new system therefore costs
the city practically nothing over the

1T will not increase the taxes or

building of any sewer to install the
same.
1.-THE entire expense of the install

"The time to put in the system is
before or at the time of re-surfacing

the high school and stands ready to
assist in the re-surfacing of Water
street.
"At a meeting of the directors Of
the Gardiner Board of Trade held
June Il, 1922, it was unanimously
voted to submit the proposition to
the City of Gardiner.
The only question is, do you want

Big CROWD HAS
FUN AT OPENING
FIRST FOOD FAIR

GARDENERS First Food Fair, held
Under the joint auspices OF the Uni
vcrsalist Society and Gardiner Lodge
&. odd Fellows, opened Monday in the
Coliseum. The advance sale OF tick
cts was such as to ensure the success
of the undertaking. Those attending

and perhaps the ticket if they can
stay away themselves. There were no

The hall had gala appearance and
was trimmed with flags and bunting

Work at Quarries
To Slow Down

The work OF the Fuller Construc-
ton Company, which leased the pro-
perty Of the Hallowell Granite Com
pany for the purpose OF preparing
stone for the New York county court
house, is nearly at an end It was
hoped at first that the work might
last through the winter. at least, but
! this expectation was without found
alton in fact. The work of prepar-
ing the stone even for the firms part
OF the contract for this ten million
dollar building is, of course, a long
one, but the rest of the work is to
be done elsewhere.
The work at the quarry is to be
completed by Dec. Is. After that
time the work will be done at Ston-
ington. Conn. A large quantity of
granite was held here for time by
the freight embargo on the New
York. New Haven and Hartford
railroads. 1t has been transferred
to the Hallowell Granite Company's
wharf. and will be shipped by lighter
direct TO New York city, as will some
of the rough stone.
More OF the rough stone has al
ready shipped to Stonington, where
it will be prepared for use The
granite saws used here for cutting
the stone have been already sent by
lighter. Some of the men who have
been employed on the work here are
already without work, and more soon
will join them. It is understood that
the company has offered employment
at Stonington, for those who care to
make the change.
To have this work end so soon is a
disappointment to Hallowell people,
who hoped to have the same condi-
tions that obtained when the Halo
well Granite Company kept the plant
working at capacity.

|NeW Stereopticon
For Maria Clark
Grammar School

Maria Clark grammar school is to
add to its equipment, as soon as the
order can be filled, stereoptican
and some three hundred slides. This
machine. when once the room is
somewhat darkened by having the
curtains pulled down, will project
upon the blackboard a picture three
feet or six feet square, depending
upon the desire of the operator and
the focus of the instrument. With
the machine and the slides comes a
teachers manual for it's more efficient
use.
This stereoptican was displayed
by the company putting them out,
last summer. at the meeting OF the
National Educational Association in
Mechanics Building, Boston, and was
seen in actual operation by at least
$4,000 interested people. The slides
prepared for 1t cover i great variety
OF material. and offer abundant and
interesting material for the iIlustra-
ton of lessons in history. geography
and English. Many are finely COL
ored.
1t will be used through all the
grades of Maria Clark, and cannot
help but add much interest to the
work. 1t is in line with the most
progressive modern teaching which
emphasizes the Importance of the Wis
ual image. 1t will also be of great
aid in the sOcialized recitation. an
other modern idea which Principal
Oscar w. Bigelow is trying out in
Maria Clark. Later in the year it is
hoped that there may. be an oppor-
tunity for the general public to OBJ
serve the working both Of the ma
chine and Of the socialized recitation.

filed with sufficient promptness so
