New Tractor for County

A new Holt caterpillar tractor is
on its way to the county, reports Joe
Rickel, clerk of the board of super
visors. This will mean that from now
on each suEervisoral district will have
a five-ton tractor of it's very own and

About S. V. Merrick
In PHILADELPHIA PAPER

per has a habit of printing what It
calls "Thumbnail Biographies of
Pennsylvania" The particular man
chosen for the issue Of March % Of
this year belongs as much to Halo
well, Maine, as he does to Philadel-
phia. Really he belongs to the coun-
try for which he did so much. The
Individual in question was Samuel
Vaughan Merrick, son Of John Mer-
rick of Hallowell and Rebecca Waugh
an, his wife, daughter Of Samuel
Vaughan. The Evening Bulletin"
calls him manufactures, engineer,
founder Of the Franklin Institute;
builder Of the Philadelphia Gas
Works, and first president Of the
Pennsylvania Railroad. He was born
in Hallowell, May 4. 1901: he died in
Philadelphia Aug. Is, 1870. He mar
ried Dec. rs, 1923, Sarah Thomas. The
children born to them were: Helen
Taylor, John Vaughan, William Hem

Hartley, and Laura Town.
Samuel Merrick was sent very early
to Philadelphia to enter the business
OF his uncle, John Vaughan as mer-
chant at Front and Water streets. His
uncle, having financed a manufacture
er of fire engines, was obliged to take
over the business and placed his
young nephew In charge. His educa.

Hallowell Phone
Service Improved
By New Cable Lines

The telephone service in Halo
well Of the New England Tel. & Tel.
Co. will be greatly improved by the
installing of new connecting cables,
the work on which was begun last
Sunday. The first of a series of cut
overs necessary in. connecting the
new 200-pair Hallowell cable has
been completed and this Is a big
step in the work.
Several additional spices and re-
arrangements of cables in Hallowell
are necessary before the new cable
facilities will be available for use in
all sections. The new cable means
that it will be able to meet the de-
mands for additional telephones in
this section and will provide for a
higher grade OF service.
The new cable is of the latest type
Of construction and contains 200-odd
pairs of % gauge copper wire. The
diameter of the cable is a very little
greater than the 60-pair cable that
it replaces.
