Bad Smashup
When Driver Loses
Control of Car

A Nash touring car, driven by
Gilbert Delaware of King street, this
city, left the road as it was coming
towards Waterville about three
miles this side of Smithfield at nine
o'clock Saturday and the automobile
was wrecked. In the car at the time,
besides Mr.. Delawa were Mrs.
Gilbert Delaware, Miss Margaret
Cameron, Arthur st. Peter, Charlie
Letourneau, and at least another
person whose name could not be as
certained. No one was seriously hurt
although all were more or less bruis-
ed.
The condition Of Miss Cameron
seemed so serious Immediately after
the accident that she was taken to
local hospital. Later examination
showed that she was severely bruis-
ed but would be able to leave the
hospital within a day or two. Mrs.
Delaware was taken to her home and
1t was late in the afternoon before
she had finally regained conscious
ness.
According to Mr.. Delaware he had
started to cross from one side of the
road to the other when something
went wrong and he lost control Of
the car. The automobile turned ov-
er three or four times, throwing it's
occupants violently out on the
ground. Mr.. Delaware could not tell
just what it was that had caused the
automobile to go wrong.
The car was, later in the morning,
lowed to a local garage and 1T Is
hardly worth repairing, according to
one Of the men there. All of the
ubooIr Uera demolished in the sDill
the top was torn off and the wind
shield shattered while the steering
wheel and gear were badly smashed.

was associated with the Cambridge
public library where she was retained
as a reviewer of books. She also tu-
tored Harvard students and was very
active in all educational work in the
city until her serious accident occurred
few years ago from which she never
fully recovered.
She was a member Of the Ladies'
City Club of Boston and Of the Ca
thedral Church Of St. Paul, of Boston.
The deceased was most loyal in her
friendships and during her many
years of suffering was accomplishing.
The ever constant devotion of her pu-

work, that of an educator.

Breaks Friday
At Service Stations

The Franklin Service station on
Charles street and the Waterville
Motor Co. on Main street were en-
tered by unknown persons some
time Friday night, the police were
notified Saturday. Because nothing
was taken from either garage the
police are inclined to believe the
breaks the work of Fourth of July
celebrators rather than of profess
sional thieves.
At the Franklin Service station
the cash register was tempered
with but there had been no money
left in it and the marauders had
touched nothing else. Entry to the
Waterville Motor Co. had been gain
ed by a rear window. Two cash
registers had been opened but moth
ing found In either. A determined
effort had been made to get into
the main office of the establishment
and four marks which had been
made by a jimmey were found.

Fourth Passes in
Splendid Manner
At Wateryille

Another grand and glorious
Fourth became history and MANY
sighed with relief when. late Of
night, the 3O-odd hours of continu-
Gus noise came to stop. 1t was a.
noisy Fourth for those that remain
ed In the city, but as so many had
gone to the lakes and other summer
resorts to pass the heightened week.
END there was in reality little to be
done about the city and more than
one person said that if it were not
1or the numerous explosions, the
day could well be likened to Sun
day.
Rain fell froEh time to time
through the day adj this had it's eff
feet IN quieting ce$sbrants. Especial
ly was this true in the evening and
the displays of night fireworks were
very few.
Defense Day Program
The National Defense day pro-
gram was held in the morning at
Seaverns field on the Colby campus
and despite the rain and the MANY
cltlzens away from the city for the
holiday, the turnout was very sat-
lsfactory. The mastering out of the
reserve military of the city was car
ried out under the direction of Lieu
tenant William L. Mansfield and by
the time all the volunteers were in
line they numbered 142, not as
many as there were last October on
the first Defense day, but a good
representation considering the ma
ture of the day. Those who gather
ed at the field were highly enter
tanned by two fast ball games, the
Independents taking the Cadillacs
into camp in the first game 8 to l.
and winning the second from the
Hollingsworth and Whitney team by
a score of 10 to .. Because of their
two victories the Independents were
declared the winners of the tourna-
ment and were awarded the purse
of $7o, which had been put up by
the George n. Bourque Post of the
American Legion.
For the police the day was par
ticularly quiet and the telephone
rang but at rare intervals. In the
afternoon Adelard Duschene, l.
years old, of Bay street, was brought
to the station after he had badly
burnt a finger on his right hand by
the accidental explosion of a blank
cartridge revolver. The wound was
dressed by a local physician and
the lad continued his celebration
Reports went the rounds that a
woman living in the northern part
of the city suffered an injured eye
from the explosion of a revolver
but the matter was not reported to
the police and nothing could be
learned of it.
The Fire department was ready
all day to answer alarms but there
was not a fire. 1t is an unusual
Fourth that some blaze either of
minor or major proportions is not
set by carelessly thrown explosive
and the fact caused no little com
ment.
Automobile traffic has seldom been
as heavy as it was over the holiday
and weekend and a steady stream
of cars passed through the city.
