Chicago Produce Market
(By the Associated Press)

Chicago, March 1.
With eastern buying strongly in ev-
prices made good recovery today
after dropping to the lowest level

buying was attributed to a New York
speculator said to have been a recent
heavy seller. Wheat closed unsettled

Preceding the recovery In wheat

Besides, export demand for North

on Washington legislative advices ac-
companied the subsequent upturn Of
the corn market and gave renewed
steadiness to oats.
Provisions were a little firmer as
result of highed quotations on hogs.

assistance of this organization were
left in their own home and helped
there as much as possible, being Wis
tied each month. She explained
that the needy ones were reached
by information from nurses, doctors
and ministers. There are 80 cases
in and near Waterville now waiting
to be investigated. Mrs. Park said
the work had come to a point that
it was with parents as much as with
the children, in a hope to make bet
ter homes for the children. She
spoke of the assistance rendered
and the kindness of heart of our
overseer of the poor, saying he de-
served COMMUNICATION. Just now a
home among the right sort of peo-
pie is wanted for an 11-year-old girl
and also a 14-year-oldh girl and a
l5-year-old girl. Some of the gar
ments just now needed We're pajamas
for children from 6 to IA years and
outing flannel kimonos for hospital
wear.
At the close Of the talks by these
two visiting women an illustrated
lesson was given by the ladies Of
the Missionary Society on giving to
the needy and to Christianize the
world.

Finance Board
For Snow Removal
To Meet Today

Ralph Harmon. chairman OF the gem
eral committee on snow removal, re-
turned last evening from a business

.eral days, and Immediately began work
on the problem of snow removal. The
first meeting of the finance committee
of the snow removal committee will be
held in the Office of the WaterVille-
Wlnslow Chamber of Commerce this
afternoon at o'clock. Present indica-
lions are that the committee will be
faced with a problem of blocked high
ways today and will be able to handle
the situation very efficiently. At the
meeting this afternoon further plans
for financing the project will be made
and the committee may present some
new phase of this subject Harry E..
Green and John J. Hennings, members
of the finance committee, made trip
through the various towns between
Waterville and PittSfield earlier in the
week and were very successful in en-
listing the aid of the Selectmen of
these towns in the project. Further
along the line of financing the propo-
sition is the distribution of stickers
for the windshields of the cars driven
by the contributors to the general
fund and the circulation of petitions
among those who would be interested
in aiding the fund.
The complete finance committee as
announced yesterday is made up of the
following members: Harry Z. Green
(chairman), John J. Hennings, DIR. f.

Universalist
Church Will Observe
Centennial This Year

The year 1926 will have local
significance of unusual interest for
the fact that it brings the centennial
Of the Universalist church of this
city and preparations are even now
going forward for the proper OBJ
servanc of the event
This church was the first one of
it's faith organized in Maine, the date
being May 2S, 1926. 1t was named
the First Universalist church and
the first pastor was the Rev. Syl-
vanus Cobb. Among the leaders of
a liberal faith in Waterville were
some Of the ablest and most eminent
men in the town and no doubt a large
part of the future success of the So
ciety was due to their wise and ca
pable conduct of it's affairs during its
early days, for throughout the CEN
fury 1t has continued to actively
function, being closed only between
pastorates for short time.
At this date only the merest OUT
lines Of the program of the centen-
NAL Observance have been considered
but committees will soon be appoint
ed to take care of the details and
evolve an event worthy of its sig
nificance. The present pastor of the
church is the Rev. Frederick S.
Walker, who came here recently
from Norwood, Mass.

Two Speakers
Of Interest at
Missionary Meeting

! At the Woman's Missionary meet
! ing held in the Philbrick parlors of
the Baptist church Friday afternoon
two very interesting speakers were
j.. listened to with attention, Mrs. Da-
Wis from the Salvation and Mrs.
Parks, agent for the New England
i Home for Little Wanderers.
This organization has always,
while working for foreign missions,
been active in any way they could
help in local work. Mrs. Davis gave
a very clear and concise account of
the branches of the salvation work
in Waterville. She interested the la
dies among other things by giving
an account Of the number helped
during the present month. Ten beds
! for a night have been given and Is
, meals so far this month, one of
which moved many to pity was the
story of a young man who had been
over In the late war and was gassed
and was now trying to reach a naval
hospital. All rejoiced that we did
have. the Salvation Army with us,
for ne was helped and sent on his
way. She explained that the Army
required credentials in a case where
such help was given. Mrs. Davis
said the work is growing rapidly in
Waterville and after listening to her
this afternoon it does not seem pos
sfble that an appeal from these good
workers could be turned aside by
any OF the women present
Mrs. Park said she had been here
since last March in the interest of
the Little Wanderers Home. She
said that many did not understand
the work and she was glad of an
