BOTH ANNIVERSARY
CLINTON GRANGE

The 36th anniversary of the or
ganization Of Clinton Grange was oh
served in a fitting and very enjoy
able manner on Saturday. The fore
noon session opened shortly after
II o'clock and after "Welcome
Song" by the Grange choir and "Hur-
rah for Old New England" by grange.
A very instructive address was given
by c. NJ. White of Augusta of the
Bureau OF Markets. State Agricul-
tural Department on the subject of
cooperative marketing. Dinner was
served to about 100 persons. The
afternoon session was open to the
public with the program as follows:
Song, "The Grange is Marching On"
grange; History of Clinton Grange,
Mrs. Lottie d. Wakely; piano solo,
George Tapley; recitation. Dorothy
Wakely; song. Ida Brown: reading,
"Laddie.' Miss Ruth Mudgett of
Burnham; two of the three remaining
members Of the local Post G. A. r.
We're guests, j. +. Rolfe gave a stir
ring speech and Perry Brown, pat
riotic recitation which were a pleas
ant addition to the program. The
address Of Frank p. Washburn, com
missioner of agriculture illustrated
with views was of great interest to
the large audience. 1t dealt largely
with the potato industry from the
production in Aroostook county to the
nnal marketing in the large cities.
He stated that the agricultural pro-
ducts of Aroostook county We're sec
ond in value to but one county in the
country. Los Angeles County, Cal.
The views of rural school houses in
Mi 90
est to many. The history by Mrs.
Wakely was especially fine, recalling
pleasant memories to the older mem
hers and containing much that was
new to the younger generation. 1t
will be incorporated in the records
OF the order. Though Clinton Grange
has many pleasant and profitable
meetings to it's credit. but none more
so than that of Saturday, was the
universal opinion of those who at
tended.
