Matters of Great
Importance Before
Elm City C.. C.. Meet

Several matters of Importance
were considered at the meeting of
the directors of the Chamber of
Commerce held yesterday afternoon
at the rooms at the Elks' building.
The question of the disposal of the
garbage of the city is one which
threatens to become a serious one
within a few years and some meth
cd must be devised to safeguard the
health of the citizens by some sys-
tenn Of garbage disposal. There Is
a certain part of the city which is
covered by the teams from Mount
Merici, the garbage being gathered
twice a week. This has been found
TO be very satisfactory. Several
farmers also gather garbage for
their hogs, but there are still a large
number of families who have not
any service of that kind and this is
a matter which the Chamber of
Commerce feels should be investi-
gated. President Tebbetts appointed
a committee consisting Of Horace
True Muzzy. w. A. Knauff and
Charles w. Atchley to suggest some
method whereby the disposal or
garbage could be brought about.
The Portland Chamber Of Com
merce has asked the local Chamber
to assist in the work Of an earlier
departure of trains for New York
so that buyers and business men
NAV have more time in New York
when they 60 there for only one
DAVIS business. The night train TO
New York, now scheduled to leave
Portland at $40 P. M. is due to
arrive in New York on the follow
ing morning at 8.15. standard time
and 9.15 daylight saving time. Bust
ness men of Maine use this train
to 20 to the New York markets and
return the same night, after buy
ing. To connect with that train In
Portland, people from Waterville
have to leave here at 1928 and have
a wait of over two hours in Port
land. Portland people are to take
the matter up with the Boston &
Maine and New York. New Haven
and Hartford railroads, asking for
an earlier departure from Portland.
The directors heartily favored the
movement and will send an endorse
ment Of the project to the Portland
Chamber of Commerce.
Much dissatisfaction has been ex-
pressed of late because of the fact
that reserved seats cannot be
bought in one Of the picture houses
of the city, the claim being made
that the system is proving great
inconvenience to many who wish to
attend but cannot be on hand early
enough to secure desirable seats.
It was voted to take the matter up

FORD ADDRESSES
LOCAL POST OF
AMERICAN Legion

Service by the American Legion for
disabled comrades, for the dependents
of those who gave their lives in the
late war and for the community was
the theme of Department Command :
err Perley Ford's address last eve
ming to the members of the Water
vile, Oakland, andVassalboro Posts
and auxiliarics of these Posts gath
cred in joint meeting.
Commander Ford especially COM
mended the Post at Strong Maine for
the fine community work that it's
members are doing saying that here I.
tofore he had always thought that
the George n. Bourque Post was per-
h;tps in the lead in work of this kind.
This remark Of Mr.. Fords came as
the result of a short speech given by
Thomas Crandall, commander of the
Post at Strong who told of the Le-
gion in that town starting with six
members, buying its own building, or
Ganizing a board of trade and a fire
department with over 40 members be-
sides increasing the membership of
the Post several hundred per cent.
Mr.. Ford named many things that
a post might do to be of service and
he urged that work of the sort be
furthered to the greatest possible de-
gree.
Paul Julien, commander of the
George n. Bourque Post was chair
man of the evening. He called on
DR.. John Towne. vice commander of
the State, DR.. w. w. Hendec, COM
mander of the Vassalboro Post,
Thomas Crandall. commander of the
Strong Post Albion Blake, COM
mander of the Strong Post, and

speeches.
Following tho meeting refreshments
were served. The committee on re-
freshments wcr George Heurley, DR..

ADJUSTMENTS

'Lightnin," the famous comedy
that has eclipsed every record for
big receipts and length of run in
New York, Chicago, and Boston, will
be seen at the Haines Theatre for
one performance only, tomorrow
night. Written by Winchell Smith
and the late Frank Bacon, with
splendid characterizations and
real idea as a basis. 'Lightnin" is
said to provide one of those evenings
in the theatre that are all too rare.
"Lightnin" is described as bright
wholesome American comedy, hav-
ing as its central figure Lightnin Bill
Jones, one of the quaintest, most
lovable, most genuinely humorous
characters that the stage has seen in
years. He is Civil war veteran, a
tfppler, the champion liar of his
county, a shiftless ne'er-do- well, but
withal, philosopher and true
friend. There has been no more
