Waterville World War Veterans are reminded the services of Cas- per S. Davis, Jr. Post No. 136, American Legion, are at their dis posal in making application for the payment of the Adjusted Service Certificates or bonus" Comman- der E. Lester Platt, Adputant Clif- ford D. Northrop, and Service Off, ficer Robert Cosgriff have been named special committee to as- sist in filling out the necessary forms. The forms have been re- ceived and already more than a score of local veterans have been ] assisted. The committee will be in session at the post rooms in Frat ernity hall, at 2 Boyden street, Friday evening from zoo to 800 i o'clock; Sunday afternoon from 200 to 400 o'clock, and on each Tuesday evening until further mo- tice, from 700 to 800 o'clock. It is not necessary that the veterans be members of the Legion to avail themselves of this service, the local post standing ready to assist all who may desire help.
 Sewer Assessments Levied.
 Following @ public hearing be- fore the Board of Commissioners of Public Works, held last night at the City Hall, and which was we'll attended by property owners on Thomaston avenue, assessments were levied for the installation of sanitary sewer in that street from point approximately fifteen hum dred feet south of Homer street to about two hundred feet north Of Fort Hill avenue.
 The sewers was laid during the winter and early spring of 1933-34 preceding the paving of Thomaston avenue by the State Highway de- partmert. The usual front foot as- sessment of two and one-half dol lars per front foot, as required by state law from each property owner A somewhat unusual situation arose in connection with this pro- feet in that the city was also fore ed to lay the conections for indiyi- dual property owners, from the main carrier to the curb. This Is not ordinarily done, since 1t is the property-own responsibility and ] the matter of his hooking-up With the sewer is usually left to his con- yenience. The state highway de- partment would not permit this practice to hold in this case since permanent highway was about to be laid and 1t was stipulated that under no conditions would permits sion be given to open the paving for sewer connections after the paving had been completed. This forced the city to proceed with the laying of the connections to the curb line so that the work Of paw ing might not be held up. The work was done for the city at the cost of two dollars Q running foot ana the property-owners are to pc charged at that rate.

wise here are still convinced that or
ganization is at least halt the battle
in any campaign, they feel that Hor-
ton has a very definite advantage
now. The fact that Horton has served
five terms in the State Senate and
has made valuable contacts in this
service. is also conceded to be a help
to his candidacy.
Grady Very Active.
But Senator Grady has also been
unusually active mas campaigned in
every county in the State and is con-
coded to have a very strong follow
ing among the anti-sales taxers-he
is running on an anti-sales tax plat
form. He is also conceded to have a
strong following among the various
fraternal orders, especially among
members of the Junior Order. If the
anti-sales tax sentiment is as strong
as he and his supporters believe it is,
he should win the nomination, even
though it is not believed that Grady
has as strong an organization as Hor-
ton.
Although Senator MCNEIL was late
in getting into the campaign and in
starting active work than either Hor-
ton or Grady, reports indicate that he
has made some very material gains
in recent weeks. He is conceded to
have some very strong support among
the coal and ice dealers, bottlers
