STORY OF NAMES
rs YEAR CLUB GOES
TO WHOLE NATION

Interesting data regarding the
widespread favorable publicity CIV
en- to the Maine Three-Quarter Gen.
fury Club throughout the United
States was issued yesterday by the
Maine Public Health Association.
Prominent in yesterdays New
issue of the New York Times mid
week Pictorial is page devoted to
photographs taken at Augusta on
September 1st., when the organiza-
ton meeting of the Three-Quarter
Century Club was held here. An
article, which accompanies the pic
lures, reads inpart as follows: up
in the State OF Maine, it appears,
folks like to stop now and then, take
a long breath and look things over
to see where they are and how they
stand. Officials of the Maine Public
Health Association have plenty of
figures to prove that their State is
one of the healthiest in the Union.
But the members of the association
were not satisfied with merely stat
istics--they wanted some living evil
dence. And SO they organized the
Maine Three Quarter Century club
with all residents of the State who
IS years of age or over, eligible.
From 5000 volunteer census TAX

were between the ages of 30 and SO;
between the ages of so and So there
were 4,491 and between the ages of
75 and so there were 7,463. Now,
the population of Maine of 76S,014
and of this population 655,615 were
covered in the census in which were
listed 14,717 members of the club.
This having been accomplished a
meeting was called at Augusta to
perfect a permanent organization.
Auto caravans were arranged in
many cities to bring their pioneers
in for the meeting.
The result was that more than 1000
OF these old timers came in for their
club meeting. They elected officers
with Rear-Admiral w. w. Kimball
of the U. S. Navy, retired, as presi-
dent. They danced the oldtime
dances, sang the old time songs and
attended a big reception given by
Governor and Mrs. Brewster"
