HJfTHAWAY

REPORTS FROM CONGRESSMAN WILLIAM D. HATHAWAY SEASON OF BROTHERHOOD, SEASON OF HOPE

In the years since that December day in 1620, when the Pil­grims took their first cautious step from the Mayflower onto Plymouth Rock, the month of December has marked many great and laudable occasions in the building of the land of the free and the establishment of the principle of brotherhood among men.

In December 1'791, the Bill of Rights became the basic de­finitive document of our freedom. On December 6, 1819, our own State of Maine approved its constitution; two days later it petitioned Congress for statehood, and on December of that same year, the U.S. House of Representatives reported a bill admitting Maine to statehood, For the better part of 20 centur­ies, December has also marked the day of days in the Christ­ian world-- the day of rejoicing in hope, compassion, and un­derstadning among' men-- and the feast of dedication in the Jewish world, days for reaffirmation of freedom.

As we near the end of this latest holiday season, perhaps it would do us well to pause for a moment to reflect on the season itself and on the meaning it holds for all of us in America. The season is one, first of all, for rededication to and for one an­other, for recalling the good of the past-, and for making reso­lutions to model future actions on the Golden Rule. It is also the season for giving. ·

But as we give, within the limits of our capacity and the bounds of our hearts, we must be careful not to lose sight of the even greater meaning cifthis season. Nor should we miss the oppor­tunity it provides to convey to our children that here in the Un.;.. ited States, we enjoy above all else the right to express our­selves withour fear of retribution; the most precious of all gifts in Thomas Jefferson's words - - "that A lmight:y God hath created the mind free. "

Today, as we approach the end of this holiday season and the end of nearly two hundred years of national life, the guardian­ship of this wonderful. gift remains the most sacred trust of the American way of life. Against the storms of hatemongers, bigots, and fanatics, we must resolve this yea!" that for every future year this one beautiful though-- "The mind free"-- re­main America's .most cherished gifts. If problems sometimes appear to loom so great and the di­

visions between us to grow so deep that many good Americans tend to lose sight of the goals ahead and to Ul').derestimate their ability to reach out withftl eir hearts to find the path to a bright­ter tomorrow, then these days of late December and early Jan­uary may hold a remedy. For these are the best of all days to give ourselves toone another, and to refocus on the good things in life we can achieve with our God-given talents. Th~s season, let us all pledge anew to seek and find the way

to peace and to foster and spread the spirit of good will through our national life as well as with friends and communitv. And as constantly remind ourselves and our neighbors of the simple fact of life that everyone is an equally important part of the brotherhood of man.

Education News 11£. S.A. D. No. 41 recognizes the need for helping meet the

nutritional needs of its students, and· serves a well balanced nutritious lunch each school day at Penquis Valley High School, Brownville Village Primary, LaGrange Primary, Special Ed­ucation, and Atkinson Elementary Sehool. It is unfortunate that lack of facilities in the district prevents serving hot lunch to some 800 students attending the other school. <

Presently meals are • 35 and as of January 11; 1971 they wUl go to . 40 for high school students only. Inflation and increased food costs demand thltt this be done. However, since ·Some families find it difficult to pay this full price, the district will provide free or reduced price to those students determined · by the administration to be unable to pay the full price for their lunches. .

Families who feel that their children may be ellgible for free or reduced pric.e lunches 'are urged to apply. 'rhis of course applies only in those Bchools where the district serves hot . lunches. Copies of the application form have been sent home in a letter to parents in those schools. Additional copies may be obtained at the office of the Superintendent of Schools. The completed application, signed by an adult member of the. family should be sent to the Superintendent of Schools, Milo. Silcp applications will be reviewed promptly, and within 10 days the family will be · notified in writing as to the decision made. All information provided on the. application will be held in the strictest confidence. Decisions for approval will be based on the following income scales. · · FAMILY SIZE FREE MEALS REDUCED PRICES one $1920 · $2210. two 2520 2900 · three 3120 · 3590 four 3720 4280 five 4270 4910 six 4820 5540 seven 5320 6115 eight 5820 6690 each additional 450 520 family member

An unusual circumstance or hardship which affects the fam­ily's ability to pay for school lunches, such as prolonged illness, in the family, unexpected ex-penses due to fire, flood or any other disaster of this nature, seasonal Lmemployment, and simi.lar emergency situations, will also be considered. If a family is not satisfied with the decision made on their

application, it may request a hearing to appeal the decision. This request may be made orally or in writing to Mr. Richard M. Sawyer, Superintendentof Schools at Milo, Maine, who will review the application with them and see if different arrange-ments can be made. ·

The districV s formal free and Teduced price policy statement and the procedure that will be followed when a decision ls ap­pealed are on file at the Superintendent's office and may be review~d by any interested.person.

~ The following paragraphs contain information in chronological order, by Mrs. Helen Livermore as she remembers an account of a robbery, at her home last Wednesday.

~ Ronald Cookson, 36, of Dexter who was known to the Liver­more's, called at their home at about 7:45p.m. and attempted to see "some empty bottles" and made the visit a social call during which he asked questions about a recent sale the Liver-mores had made of a farm in Sebec. _

Heleftat about 9 p.m., Mrs. Livermore remembers that the TV program "To Tell The Truth" had been watched so the time might ha,ve been earlier than nine. ·

Mr . and Mrs. Livermorewatchedthe "Miss America Special" did thei'r chores and Mr. Quincy .. Livermore went to bed. He­len was reading to him after they turned the TV off.

At al;>oht 11 p.m. Cookson returned, they let him in and he stayed standing near the door, aE?king if they had found his bill­foldwl'\lchhe' clalmed he had lost and thought it might have fal­lenfromhis pocket during his previous visit. Mrs. Livermore loo~ed for the billfold, whlle CookSOlf showed a large number of bills (money) which he said he had received for working in Brownville and other places.

Suddenly three men, with stocking maskes pulled over their faces slammed through the door. They either hit, or pretend­ed to hit Cookson who slumped to the floor. One of them covered Mrs. Livermore's face with a rag, she struggled and was able

· to tear the cloth off her eyes and mouth and her cheeks were bruised in the struggle. Quincy Livermore, hearing the noises, ran from his bedroom and grabbed an iron to attack the assail­ants. One of the men threw him to the floor and Quincy's shoulder was hurt as it struck a a table leg. From the floor he asked"What do you want, money?" and was answered "Yes, and a lot of It", "and we want to get out of here fast".

Quincy told Helen to give them her pocketbook and told the .men where it was. One man turned it out onto the stove. It con­tained about $34. 00 •. The man said "You got more".

The third man (one had been holding Helen) went upstairs and Quincy and Helen heard the sounds of things being "dashed a-bout. ·

Quincy, hurtlng from his rough treatment, asked if he could go to his bed. He was allowed to do this but one of the intruders r ipped the phone from the wall despite the Liver mores begging them not to. (They thought they would need a doctor) After in­activating the phone the robbers hid it in a sewing basket.

The three men then left by the back door. Helen went to a next door enighbor, Mrs. Irene Thompson and told her of the robbery As she was returning to her house s he saw Milo poiice officer Charles Huff in his car and shouted to him.

Officer Huff arrested Cookson who was moving onto the front porch. Huff then notified Sheriff's Department in Dover.

Editor's Note: Officer Huff had been notified "to watch out forthegroup"andafter seeing Cookson's car in front of Liver­more's he had stationed himself outside.

Deputy Sheriff John Groggins arrested Gene A. Trott, 28, of Dover on probably cause at Milo. State Police Detective Jones arrested Ronald Martin, 27, of Sangerville and Albert Brawn, 25, also of Sangerville at Sebec Station. All three arrests taking place at about 3 a.m.

A pistol and some of the money stolen from the Livermores were recovered.

Both Martin and Brawn were a waiting the March term of court on charges connected to the robbery of a Foxcroft jewelry store last Thanksgiving Day. Martin had been out on bail and Brawn was bailed out the same day as the robbery.

MILO'S EARLY YEARS SOiVlE THINGS WORTH KNOWING

Dr. E. Whetlock Snow was the first professional man to treat the physical ills of the settlers here. The first physician to locate in Milo was Dr. J. E. Califf.

J. B. Everett was the first layer to open an office in Milo. The earliest church in town was the Free Will Baptist Church,

which was or·ganlzed with 12 members, in 1829. Elder L. Hath­away was the first clergyman in town.

The oldest house in Milo is either the house on Park St, owned by Benj. Stanchfield or the building now owned by 0. E. West and occupied by the Milo F\sh Market. Robert Cutts formerly kept a tavern and sold rum here.

The three merchants in Milo , who have been in business the longest, are M. G. Brackett, R. M. Ingalls and 0. E. West.

It was voted in one of the early town meetings to allow cattle to graze in the village streets.

It was also voted in 1823, to allow 12¢ per hour for manual labor on the highways and 8¢ per hour for oxen. The town voted in 1823 to raise $600 for the support of highways; last year over $7, 000 was spent for this purpose.

JEHOVAH'S WITNESSES

·, .

Murray V. Mayo, presiding minister of Mno cong~egation of Jehovah's Witne('!ses, has announced a change, effective tqe weekend of January 15-17, in the schedule of Bible instruc­tion at Kingdom Hall, Dover-.Mllo Road, Milo, Maine.

Whereas group study of the Bible remains Tuesday evening, local families of Witnesses will attend other meetings of the week at the Armory in Augusta with hundr'eds of other families from northeastern Maine. Mayo explained that, far from beip.g a vacatioQ, this assembly .represents· a three- day intens ifica­tion of the activity of the area Witnesses. AJx>ve ~ill, it offflrS an educat~onal opportunity to each indtvidual, not simply con-gregation leaders. . ..

Youths especially can benefit, for today, Witnesses believe, conscientious parents are englJ.ged in a battle for their child­ren's minds, in view of dapgerous' pressures, such ·as drug abuse, exerted upon the young._ A way £rom pa~e~tal oversight many hoqrs a \yeek at school,_ children need instruction in Bi­ble prit).ciples, and conventi<>nf! such as this serve to deepen their appreciation for Bible learning.

Convention delegates will be engaging in their public ministry as usuai that weekend, but in the Augusta. area, where they will be calling at every door, ~aking free Bibl~ study help avail­able to all interested persons, just as they regularly do in their home territories.

GIRL SCOUT COOKIE TIME It is Girl Scout Cookie Time once again in northeastern Maine,

and on January 22 approximately 40.00 Junior, Cadette and Sen­ior Girl Scouts of Abnaki Council will start trudging through the snow for a period of one week to ring neighbors• doorbells and take orders for · cook~es.

This once-a-year cookie sale provides funds to maintain Girl Scout camp sites and keep camp fees at a minimum. It also helps toprovide campersl).ips for girlE! who would be unable to attend camp without financial assistance, and it supports Girl Scouts who are selected to attend national or international events.

Individual troops receive a ~ha.t;'e of the profit from each box of cookies they E~ell. These profits may go for trips, crafts, service projects, cookouts, troop equipment, and other act­ivities not covered by regular troop dues.

l'hisyear the Girl Scouts will be offering th~ same five ftavors of cookies that proved so popular last year, but they will be in double-size boxes for double the eating enjoyment.

Mrs. Jaflle.s J. Samway and Mrs. James F. d·1Connor, !;loth of Bangor, are chairmen of the over-all 1971 Abna.ki Council CookiE;! Sale; ·

ln this area, · Mrs. Richard ~armcm of Milo is coordinating sale activities for the association that includes the town of Milo, Brownville Ju[lction, · Guilfqrd, Dover-Foxcroft, and Monson, and approxima,t~ly 150 girls will be taking cookLes orders.
