Special SUNDAY Services

Services were held at the Village
church on Sunday, June 10. They
were given by group Of young men
from Belfast, students Of Belfast
high school and members of the
Young Mems Uplift society. The
services consisted of two brief, but
very interesting addresses, one given
by Mr.. Buzzell. the other by Mark P.
Shibles. Mr.. knight led the commun-
ity singing, which was accompanied
by violin, violincello and organ, play
cd by Mr.. Kelley, Mr.. Eaton and Miss
Eaton. respectively.
More than 100 We're present and all
thoroughly enjoyed the service. The
people Of the community feel deeply
grateful to these young people, who
so freely gave their services.
The messages of the young speak
ers were heard with wrapt attention
and surely no one in the audience
could have felt other than a thrill of
moral uplift. while listening to the
words of advice given by the noble
boys. Nor was all our enjoyment de-
rived from the addresses. The sacred
solo. given by Mr.. Patterson was
greatly enjoyed by all. His tones, SO
clear and full, SO filled with melody.
so plainly interpretive of the song,
bespeak for the young singer a more
than ordinary musical career.
We are happy to announce that
these young men will hold another
service in our church next Sunday.
June II at 3 p. NJ, and all are most
cordially invited to be present.

BARBER" CALLS
FOR SUPPLIES AND
MAKES GETAWAY

A claimant for the box marked
BARRIERS supplies" that has been
waiting in the Fairfield railway en-
press Office for several days, arrived
yesterday morning, signed for the
package, paid the amount due and
calmly walked to the box and picked
it up. That particular gentleman.
who signed his name as Joseph De-
luccia, lost his balance, narrowly es-
Gaping a fall. His face turned a
chalky hue and he looked askance
at the express agent. He started
toward high powered car that was
waiting outside, carrying the box
with him.
The express agent looked at Mr..
Deluccia in an amused manner and
remarked that the sheriff had visit
ed the box ahead of the consignee.
Mr.. Deluccia dropped the box, leap
ed into the car and observers de-
clare that the next time the car
struck earth was several feet away.
Deputy Sheriff Wallace Hill of
Fairfield was in the Fairfield express
Office last Tuesday after package
and he noticed big packing box
labeled BARRIERS supplies" Mr.. Hill
was suspicious of such big box
GINNING " fdlfHelu DdrDer and he
prled off the cover, revealing % one
J gallon tins filled with alcohol. The
deputy seized the contents and took
them to Skowhegan, leaving the box
at the station in case a claimant
should appear.
Deputy Sheriff Hill said that he
had an idea as to who the box was
consigned to and that it was parties
who live several miles from Fair
field. Authorities have little hope of
experimenting the guilty parties but
1t IS not expected that similar
scheme of obtaining contraband
beverage will be tried in this vicinity
for some time now that bootleggers
have discovered that deputy sheriffs
are on the job. The value of the
alcohol seized is considered about
5000.
