include a representation of just how
"Roxie" and the gang" perform
when they are broadcasting in their

For Three Quarters
Century Club Here

The Statewide census which is be-
ing conducted by civic organizations
for a complete list of residents over
IS years OF age is meeting with a
hearty response on all sides, and now
the announcement comes that a COM
mittee has been formed in Gardiner
for this purpose. AS is generally
known the Maine Public Health Asso-
citation conceived the idea which was
promptly endorsed by Governor Brew
ster as one of the valuable ideas in
the advertising of Maine as a State.
In other cities. Kiwanis or Rotary
Clubs, aldermen. or other city or town
officials. oranges. or similar organiza-
tions have taken hold of the plan. and
are working it out satisfactorily.
Mayor McNaughton gave the project
his stamp of approval, and appointed
a. committee to receive the names of
persons eligible to become members
of Names Three Quarter Century
Club, which will be one of the most
distinctive and honorable societies in
the country. This committee was ap-
pointed according to wards. and is
headed by Miss Julia Clason as chair
man. The others are as follows:
Ward one. Mrs. Edith Genthner; Ward
two. Mrs. Mildred Blaisdell: Ward
three, Miss Geneva Smith; Ward four,
Mrs Julia Amesbury; Ward FIVE, Miss
Julia Clason, ands Ward six, Mrs. Per-
cy Hodgkins. The duty of\the men,
bers of this committee is to secure the
name, address and date of birth of
every person who is IS years of age
or over in their respective ward, and
persons eligible should tighten the
work Of the committee by sending in
this information. and thus their name
will be put on the list and they auto
matically become member of Maine s
Three Quarter Century Club.
The purpose of the formation OF
| this great organization is-first to
prove to the world by thousands OF
| living examples that living in Maine
| Is conducive to longevity, and second
to afford an occasion to extend
proper recognition to those in the old.
er generation who are now assuming
positions on the side-lines while the
younger generation takes the place or

| other cities and towns in the State
| have been working on the plan fol-
some little time, and Gardiner resi-
! dents must work fast in order to get
| the full list of names in. The re-
| turns for the State are to be counted
| by committee which will meet in
| Augusta on August o6th, and as this
| is a project of more than ordinary
merit it should be a matter of civic
| pride for everyone to cooperate In

Car Misses Baby
Carriage bv Inch

A near accident on Water street
early yesterday afternoon attracted
considerable attention for few
minutes. A child wheeling a baby
carriage containing a lively young
ster. pushed the carriage deliberate
ly in front OF an on-coming car. The
brakes screeched. the car stopped
with jerk less than half an inch
in front of the baby carriage, and
the startled driver uttered language
that to say the least was not the
best for childish ears. No possible
blame could have been attached to
the driver had xhe car really struck
the carriage and its tiny occupant.
1t hardly seems wise for mothers
to permit children to cross Water
street alone and in charge of baby
cabs.
