HISTORICAL B.DGS

Horace True Muzzy. the architect.
regard TO local history He points out
that many facts Of local history, as
yet unpublished. are still fresh in the

in the earlier days of Waterville. He

AS architect for the new junior high
school, l have been interested in the
destruction of the old building that
had stood for so many years as a CEN
ter for the school interests of our peo-
pie. Since the removal of this old
landmark many incidents have come to
me in connection with the old school,
Incidents as vet unpublished but still
fresh in the minds of men and women
who lived in the earlier days of Wa
terville.
The thought has come TO me that I'M
less these little incidents are record
ed they will. in the course of time.
| be forever lost. And that il would be
of inestimable value for future refer
ence if these people would write the
stories of their earlier experiences.
There are many Old buildings in
Waterville that have interesting histo-
rieS. There are. and have been, many
people here who have rendered valued
service to the community. the only rec
ord of which is written in the hearts
and minds Of their friends. 1t seems
to me that a record of these things
should be preserved.
| am publishing this communication
with the hope that someone can recall
unpublished bits OF history, will write
me letters so that at some later date
we may compare notes and in the
meantime place on file for permanent
record bits Of history that may have
seemed trivial and unimportant in the
passing but which in reality are the
fine things of life

Trains Continue to
Move Despite Strike

There was an air of suppressed
excitement at the Maine Central rail-
road station. Thursday afternoon,
Just before train No. IL came in, as
somehow or other the rumor got
about that whole carload of strike
breakers was coming in. This was
doubtless due to the fact that 10
Strike breakers had arrived in town
the day before, but No. II pulled in
and nothing happened at all. although
the deputy sheriffs. the special agent
OF the Maine Central. and other rail-
road officials and the police officer on
the north end beat were on hand and
appeared somewhat watchful.
So far as could be learned only two
strike breakers arrived on train No

walked quietly TO the Maine Central

lest them by any Of the pickets Of

will quickly assume a more serious
phase. The members of the broth
erhoods. which include the engineers.
firemen, conductors and brakemen
are beginning to be apprehensive of
the condition of the rolling stock of
the railroad throughout the country.
1t may be said. however. that the
rolling stock of the Maine Central
was in excellent condition when the.
strike started, which was AZ days
ago, but - days is a long time the
strikers claim, in the efficiency of
rolling stock and they question
whether more than 10 per cent. of
the strike breakers now employed are
efficient worlmen in their line.

Waterville and there will probably be,
no recurrence Of the two acts of all
