PATRIOTIC MEETING
At CANAAN
Grange Hall AttractiveIy Decorated
Many Veterans in Attendance

For many years in the past Ca
naan Grange has recognized the goth
day OF June as patriotic day and in
vited as special guests members of
the Grand Army of the Republic and
their wives to gather with the loyal
members of this Grange and enjoy all
that can possibly be crowded into one
day of social, intellectual and patrio-
tic activities.
Friday was a beautiful summer day
and there rolled in from surround
ing sections autos and teams, loaded
with those who were to take a part
or otherwise add to the festivities of
the day. Members OF Canaan Grange
had arranged for this special occa-
sion by decorating the hall with flags
and bunting and flowers in abun-
dance, and no Grange stage and hall
ever looked more beautiful than this
at the time when Mrs. Maude E. Nell
son, master of Canaan Grange called
the large number present to order
and after patriotic song by the
choir. S. F. Emerson of Skowhegan
offered prayer. AS master of the
Grange, Mrs. Nelson, gave glad
welcome to the visiting guests and
COmrade Emerson was called upon
to respond to the welcome in behalf
of the Grand Army. Then came the
program excuses in full which occu-
pied a part of the morning and all of
the afternoon session. The recita-
tons, songs, speeches and splendid
music were well upon the front line
of any previous year.
Under the direction of Charles Fol-
m-Jones, colonel of the Somerset
Veterans Association remarks were
in order by Comrades Geo. E. Gay,
past department commander of Maine
G. A. r., J. w. Fogler; commander
and s. f. Emerson, adjutant of Rus
sell Post G. A. r. of Skowhegan, Mrs.
Geo. Il. Gay of Augusta and F. C. Dun
lop, Spanish war veteran.
The following members of the g. A.
r. were present and were recipients
of the higest honors: George e. Gay,
j. W. Fogler, Charles Folsom Jones,
S. F. Emerson, Llewellyn Goodwin,
Mark Haryille, Milford Keene, Isaac
Kimball, H. F. Thyng, l.. C. Webb,
Reuben Reed, w. G.. Holmes, Thos.
Henderson, J. w. Hall, John Goodwin,
also Mrs. Geo. Il. Gay, Mrs. William
MoDavid and Mrs. S. F. Emerson,
wives of comrades.
This report would be more of
failure IL 1t did not mention the boun-
tiful dinner furnished by Canaan
Grange, which went so far as to in
cl,ide strawberries, sugar and cream.
with all the other Injuries and just
before adjournment an abundance of
ice cream was passed to the audience.
Every one present can truly say "All
honor to Canaan Grange

Somerset Boys and Girls Clubs Hold
Field Day ut Lakewood


That boys and girls agricultural
club work is paying piece of extern
sion work was proven out at the
Lakewood field day, Thursday, June
10. Nearly two hundred boys, girls,
parents and leaders enjoyed the gen.
eral good time and get-together as
well as the children. The day was
ideal, and the members full of life,
while Guy Williams, principal of No.
Arson Academy, G. A. Storer, agricul-
tural teacher at the Academy and
Virginia Smith, Somerset's stella club
girl, who had charge of songs and
cheers saw to it that all events were
run off smoothly.
The morning program consisted of
mass games for the boys and girls.
and those who cared to were given
the opportunity to go swimming. At
noon the clubs all assembled in the
grove for dinner after which songs
were sung, club cheers given collec-
lively and by individual clubs. Song
hits on the various leaders were sung
by the North Arson Girls Club which
brought many a laugh to the audience

to say that surely Mr.. Patten had
mistaken his calling and in reality he
should be an acrobat In the ball

west, the west was declared a winner

Back in 1856, Ida Richardson, wife
of B. p. Barker of Athens was born
in this farm house beautifully situated
near Moose Pond and about three
miles from Harmony on the Notch
Road. An interesting story goes
along with the naming of the infant
as 1856 was presidential year and the
parents were supporters of the Re-
publican candidate, John c. Fremont.
So it was decided that should their
child be a boy, he SHOULD be named
for Mr.. Fremont should the latter be
successful in becoming the father of
the country. The plans did not mat
eralize, however. Not only did

has been induced by the advocacy of
false theories and the adoption of
false theories and the adoption of
false standards and by improper edu-
cation, then to correct the evil and
bring about reform, right ideas must
prevail. Ideas rule the world. Prof
Huxley once said, THE creation of a
new habit of thought is greater
achievement than any material in
yention." What we need to do Is to
create a new habit of thought, and
have our homes and schools and the
grange unfold and develop new line
of thought in the right direction.

evils is public education directed to
make men thoughtful, mericiful and
