M. E. Brotherhood
Guests at Gathering
At Railroad "Y"

The Brotherhood of the Methodist church were guests at a get-together at the Railroad Y. M. C. A., with E. W. J. Benn, secretary of the "Y" as host. About 40 guests were present.

Dr. George A. Hutchins, district health officer for Kennebec and Somerset counties, showed several motion picture films which depicted unsanitary conditions as they exist on some farms and the means that can be taken to alleviate them. After the motion pictures the evening was successfully wound up with a spirited bowling contest on the Y. M. C. A. alleys in the basement of the building.

Mr. Benn is planning to entertain men's organizations from the other churches of the city in the future.
