Clarence E. Walker Speaks
At KiWaniS Club Meeting

Clarence z. B. Walker, proprietor
of the Walker Clothing Company OF
this city, gave an address yesterday
evening before the kiwanis club at
the regular weekly meeting held at
the Elmwood hotel. William X.
Chapman, director of the Maine Fes-
tiyal, was present as a guest OF the
club and was called on for speech.
Mr.. Chapman appealed to the cltl-
zens of Waterville to get behind the
musical affairs that come to Water
Vile, as this city ought to be the
musical center of the State. Hende-
plored the lack of appreciation of
good music that is evidenced by citi-
zens in the fact that they do not
attend good concerts that are staged
during the season.
Mr.. Walker spoke of the develop
ment of the clothing business from
the earliest time, when, man wore
something more than nothing, and
he said that the amount OF clothing
worn was one way of measuring CIV
ilization. He told of the various
steps in the development OF the
clothing now worn by men and or
the processes that go into the max
ing of suit of clothes. He de-
scribed in detail the different clothes
and the wearing qualities of each.
Mr.. Walker quoted figures showing
that the clothing business is one of
the outstanding industries in the
United States at the present time,
and that if it had not been for the
invention of machinery it would be
impossible to clothe the people of
the country.
The Ford and Essex were in the
Head yesterday, each with q perfect
score, while the Hudson and Durant
cars dropped back to second place.
Some of the other cars speeded up
and made the attendance contest
look as though it is going to be any
body's race.
The orchestra furnished an excel
lent musical program.
