considering the adoption Of heroism
medals. to he awarded 10 employees for
acts of exceptional bravery. Such acts
have been recognized recently by the
gift OF Pullman stock TO conductors
and porters who have distinguished
themselves in great emergencies.
Will other employers please copy
and accompany medals by substantial
sums of money?
Nobody need fear that money will

scy Of Harvey, Fisk and Company, who
has had ripe experience in Europe and
Latin-Amcrica as well as here. He
looks for a very good investment de-
mand for corporate bonds now that in
come taxes are to be lower. He ex-
poets, however, the municipal bonds
will suffer somewhat and that the vol
ume Of new issues will be reduced. The
fact is that too many municipal bonds
have been gushing forth during the
last few years, so easy has it been to
sell them. In some cities and COM
munities this has fostered ill-advised
expenditures Of taxpayers money.
Mr.. Halsey describes last year as
the best, taking all in all, in Wall

Audience to Hear
Waterville Concert
Fills Opera House

An audience which filed the On
era House was present Yesterday
afternoon at the third community
concert to raise funds for the con-
structlon of a bandstand on Memo
rial Park. A considerable sum was
raised by contributions of money
While pledge cards We're passed out
as usual, many of which were filled
out with substantial donations.
The speaker of the afternoon was
F. Harold Dubord and he had as his
subject, Community Spirit and
Service" Mr.. Dubord said that
when he was first asked to speak
he knew of no subject upon which
to speak, but after a little thought
on the matter he had determined on
community spirit and community
service. In my opinion" he said
the two go hand in hand. They
are always found together. We can
not have one without having the
other. Community spirit is what
prompts the members of a COM
munity to community service"
Mr.. Dubord said that man is des-
tined by nature to live in co-opera-
ton with his fellow men and that
the purpose of social organization is
to bring about amicable relation
ships between men and groups OF
men. Social cooperation" he said
later in his address, leads directly
to the establishment of certain units
in which people live under common
laws and follow common customs
And so we have a grouping of fami-
lies together in one locality to form
what We call a community.
The consciousness of the fact that
we have things in common is the
foundation for the community spirit
which leads to community service"
He said that too much is heard these
days about the rights of citizenship
and not enough about the duties, of
citizenship. Among the duties of
every good citizen he named loyalty,
patriotism and obedience to and re-
spect for the laws.
Civic virtue is another requisite
of good citizenship, he said, and of
the utmost Importance in this is pub
lie spirit. 1T is that sort of civic
virtue" Mr.. Dubord declared, with
which the musicians of Waterville
and the surrounding towns became
animated when they conceived the
SplenulQ pan OIL organizing tHeSS
concerts"
The music was furnished by the
Waterville Military Band under the
leadership of George Pullen of Oak
land, and the 40 players earned for
themselves much merited applause.
The program was made up of va
riety of pieces which brought each
section of the band into play at va
rious times and it's harmony could
hardly be bettered. The program
was:
March, 1.-The Thunderer," Sousa
Overture, Poet and Peasant" Suppe
Novelette,, Midnight" Donaldson
Selection. Rose Marie" Stelhart

Vacation Makes Busy
Week at Boys Club

weeks vacation IN the publlc
.chools of the city meant a particu-
iarlv busy week at the Waterville
poys' club and the aggregate for the
'.oa, inst closed at the clubhouse
nas more than 1000. The week was
also marked by the filing of the 9OOth
snnlication for membership.
The club gymnasium received a
,ian's share of patronage and some
thing was doing every minute. On
Monday there were gym classes I'M
Ssr The supervision of George Bern
bardt. the physical director of the
cIub. and things are shaping up
nicely for the exhibition which the
cmb members are to give in the near
future. Wednesday afternoon the
iunior basketball team of the club
took the Getchell Street church Sun
day school team into camp. Wednes-
day evening the gym was turned
oyer to the basketball players OF
lawrence High school in Fairfield,
who are using it until their new
school building is completed. Friday
two of the club basketball teams
were victorious, the junior defeating
Brooks Junior High at Brooks and an
independent club team beating the
Winslow High second team at the
Armory. On Saturday afternoon the
Junior High subs beat the Junior
High first team and the Getchell
Street church players received much
valuable coaching from Mr.. Bern
hardt.
The various game tournaments
have been going on full swing and
the intermediate carom tournament
came to an end, Harry Kyle being
the winner. The consolation prize
in this went to Tommy Attaya, who
respite the fact that he was never a
strong contender for top honors has
been a cheerful loser and one who
has the respect of the other members
of the club.
In the Junior 3 caroms Joseph
Peter has forged ahead of Joseph
Nimon and Elias Peter has come into
tie with Nimon. This tournament
will end Thursday. Gerald Arm
strong is still ahead in the Junior A
second and may move into first
place.
A very close tournament is in the
intermediate pool in which Charles
Stevens and Frank Joseph are tied
for first place, each having won 3
and lost none. In second place is
Wallace Terry, who has won 2 and
lost none.
Frank Goodrich, the superinten-
dent of the club, and the others con-
nected with its supervision, feel
much encouraged because Of the in
creasing interest in the organiza-
ton on the part. of the public. Dur
ing the past few weeks there have
been more visitors to the club house
than ever and it is hoped that many
more will accep THE standing invita-
ton to visit.
