ing an artificial refrigeration plant
installed. When completed, this
plant will greatly increase the
efficiency of the creamery. The ice

The city has engaged the services
of John H. Jameson's tree experts
of Bangor to make complete reno
walton of the beautiful trees on the
Bridge Hill school property. There
are forty-one trees of elm, maple
and pine, which have been sadly
neglected, and the city feels that
these trees should be preserved. Mr.
Jameson's crew was called to ELS
worth by H. E. Hamlin to give
proper attention to the trees on his
new home, formerly the Greedy
estate. The marked improvement of
these trees caused the city to engage
these experts.
George B. Rivers, who was at

day, and arraigned in the Ellsworth
municipal court on two charges, one
for driving while intoxicated, and
the other for operating an automo-
bile with forged number plates. On
the first he was sentenced to a fine
of 5000 and thirty days in jail, and
on the second, $50 fine and thirty
days in Jail He appealed, and
furnished 81 100 bonds

promised to preside as master at
