Cross Roads Very Rough

Through the courtesy of F. NJ. Nc
Kay, who conducts a general auto
truck business, we have some up-to-
the-minute information regarding
Somerset County highways. In gen
eral it may be said that the cross
roads are very rough. This is a
good description also of about every
thing in the highway line that is not
of macadem construction.
Mr.. Mckay had a load of goods to
take to Casss Corner last Friday He
went by the way Of Malbon's Mills
and the old road to Athens. This
he found very bad indeed As he
was travelling with a two ton truck
having six inch tires, he could not
drop into the ruts made by smaller
automobiles. This obliged him in
some cases to take to the field.
Coming back he turned off to the
right at the top of Battle Hill and
went across to the Revere Corner
This cross road, doubtless owing TO
the fact that 1t had not been much
travelled, was not so bad and OF
course from Revere in was over i'm
proved road. Mr.. Mckay would ad
wise anyone going to Athens to 20 by
the way of Smith Pond. turn to the
right at Revere schoolhouse (Which
road comes out at the top of Battle
HID and thence to Cass's Corner and
Athens.
The Middle road to Waterville is in
fair condition for about four miles
out. Beyond that it is very rough in
places.
The River road to Watervile is of
course the most practicable route, all
very good except a short distance in
the vicinity of the Sanatorium, just
this side of Fairfield.
The Canaan road is in very good
condition. A few ruts at the top of the
Crawford Hill near the residence of
H. n Pratt.
The Lakewood road is very rough
and undoubtedly the same condition
prevails between Lakewood and So
lon. The road to Norridgewock on
the north side of the river Is also very
rough and rutty.

.CHESUNCOOK WILL HAVE
BEST XMAS EVER
Plans for the Festivities mt the New
Church Are Well Underway up
i'm Maine Woods

Chesuncook, far up in the Maine
woods, will have the happiest Christ
mas ever because of the pride and joy
of the place, the new church. Plans
for the festivities are we'll under way,
and when the events come off it will
be good opportunity to take census
of the population, for nearly all OF
the so persons who live here Will be
there. Chesuncook is so miles from
Greenville, which is at the foot of
Moosehead lake, and on one of the
great game trails, in the midst of the
vast cumberland of the Great Northern
Paper company, which always has an
army of men cutting spruce for its
Unsuitable mills at Millinocket and
East Nillinochet, which must grind
day and night in order to keep the
presses of several great metropolitan
dailies supplied. Chesuneook is on
no highway. The only automobile
ever seen there came up last winter
on the frozen lake. The native pop
ulation is made up of longtime resi-
dents, guides, hotel and camp proprie-
tors with store annexes. The tran
silent population Is much larger than
the permanent and every night from
$50 to 200 or more persons are in and
around Chesuncook Some of the
people, realizing that their children
were not having a fair chance, nor
the church either, preached the mat
ter to the officials of the Great North
ern company, which has social SER
vice department. The appeal met
with quick response from the two
men who have the most to say about
the Great Northern's activities in
Northern Maine-Garret Schenck and
Fred A. Gilbert. Mr.. Gilbert took a
personal interest. The company
owned two buildings on the shore of
the lake which were not utilized, and
these furnished most of the lumber
required Carpenters, masons and
painters were sent to Chesuncook,
and not long after the new church
was dedicated. 1t will seat 200 per-
sons in the cane-seated pews. 1t
is plastered, has hardwood floors, and
is heated by furnace. The build
ing also has a wardrobe room, library
and a basement, which will be fitted
up as a kitchen and dining room. A
feature which few churches have is
a room to hold a moving picture ma
chine which VIII probably be install
ed. The church is practically gift
to the community by the paper COM
pany. 1t has been turned over to the
congregational organization of Maine
which will eventually provide a pas
tor At present services are held
every two weeks by the minister of
the Greenvile church. And so the
new church will hold happy gather
ing on Christmas, and there will be
no reference to "soulless corpora
