                  <text>The Maynard Historical Society has a growing collection of monographs.  Monographs, by nature, are focused and detailed research on a single topic (places, people, events, etc.)  Many of these monographs, especially by guest authors outside of the Society's research team, contain personal anecdotes and details of life in town during their lifetime.&#13;
&#13;
In the years preceding the 1971 Centennial of Maynard the rather new Maynard Historical Society gathered a series of monographs on a wide variety of topics.  96 papers, written by primarily by Birger Koski and Ralph Sheridan, plus a number of "guest" authors, many of these were read at Historical Society meetings in the late 1960's and then became source material for the 1871-1971 History of Maynard book written for the Centennial of the Town.   Monographs from that project are titled as a "Centennial Monograph",&#13;

&#13;
The one and only claim to fame that the Finnish people that removed themselves to these shores have is the steambath. The word "sauna" is part of our English language, so we descendants of those early Finns hold on to that little bit with iron grip to satisfy our vanity.&#13;
&#13;
The sauna was, and still is, we presume, an institution in Finland. Every household from peasant on up had this little building, separate from any others, on the premises. In it they not only bathed themselves, but gave birth to their offspring - it was warm and water was available in plenty.&#13;
&#13;
The building was small - 8ft. by 12 ft. or so - split one-third dressing room, two-thirds steam room, The firebox was built from the floor up with an 8-12" layer of river-washed small stones on top. This fire box was fired from inside the steam room for some unaccountable reason, causing gases from the flame and smoke to escape into the room, smarting and burning the eyes of the first occupants in great style, One small window after awhile allowed these gases to escape. Two barrels of water, which were filled by pail from the well, one cold, one hot, were used which was ladled into pails - the proper mixture for comfortable washing.&#13;
&#13;
Along one wall was a three tiered seating board. The lowest was the coolest, the third, where your head nearly touched the celling, was the hottest. After three to four hours of burning wood in the fire box, the hardened river stones were heated to we know not what temperature - suffice to say, when a ladle of water was thrown on them sometimes they would crack, and that's hot.&#13;

Banking Institutions in Maynard&#13;
&#13;
The first bank in Maynard was an adjunct of The Assabet Manufacturing Co. We do not have a record when it was instituted. It was either a savings or a share buying institution of the company for its employees. When the company went bankrupt or insolvent on January 1, 1899 it also involved the moneys of the employees. A newsnote of July 28, 1899 reports that people are still waiting for money deposited by them in Assabet Manufacturing Company.&#13;
&#13;
August 4, 99 report is that 25% will be paid now-more later. September 8, '99- second payment of 35% will be paid in two-three weeks. February 23, 1900- final payment made - the 35% that was promised in September 1899. This loss of 40% of their savings under rather mysterious and cloudy circumstances engendered such bitterness towards the Maynard family that when two years later&#13;
American Woolen (which took over the Assabet Manufacturing Company) attempted to change the name of the town back to Assabet Village, vociferous support came from the depositors.&#13;
&#13;
The need for asavings and banking institution is apparent and obvious for every community. And so it was with Maynard. April 3, 1903 news article tells us that a national bank is coming.&#13;

The sound and fury and tragedy of yesterday's battles are concentrated in the Mack Sennott type of title and sub-titles of this paper. We can look back In amused toleration now, but 50 - 60 and 70 years ago, January, February and March of each year saw a titanic struggle take place for men's minds and votes In the small cosmopolitan town of Maynard. Rallies were held, voters were button-holed, dead men registered, money was passed, drinks were offered, group pledges were made; all the gambits of political warfare were utilized by one side or the other. But as the following record will show, virtuous Carrie Nation was no match for old demon rum - liquor In the form of beer being discovered around 3000 B.C., had given mankind a temporary Garden of Eden under Its influence.&#13;
&#13;
The one-half page unsigned advertisement In the Maynard News of March 9, 1900 epitomizes the liquor Interests, to wit: (1) no license Is farce (2) well conducted local saloon preferable to dive or kitchen barroom (3) ale, wine and liquor are national beverages necessary to the classes and masses (4) no license enforcement waste up money (5) source of revenue - thousands of dollars (6) means more business, money, less drunkenness, better standing in commercial world and life of progressive town (7) no-license means stagnation, dives, kitchen bars, vile liquors, more police, higher taxes.&#13;
&#13;
The Maynard News of December 12, 1902 devotes an article to a Women's Christian Temperance Union rally at Methodist Episcopal Church at which Reverends Lawford and Washburn spoke. Their points give a fair approximation of the temperance argument: &#13;
&#13;
(1) health, happiness and prosperity of Maynard impaired; &#13;
&#13;
(2) open saloon moral and financial liability; &#13;
&#13;
(3) no man of respectability and sobriety wishes a saloon near his home;&#13;
&#13;
(4) next to useless for Maynard to receive $3000 in rum money, and then appropriate $12,000 to introduce boys and girls to the high ideals of life - then requiring them to pass four times a day saloons when going to school;&#13;
&#13;
(5) bad example of Maynard men and prayers of the women; &#13;
&#13;
(6) Maynard boy who played drunk last week imitated his father;&#13;
&#13;
(7) Cambridge City Hall and Concord Library more healthy stimulants to a town than Maynard saloon;&#13;
&#13;
(8) give Maynard the library and close the saloons then children will cease patronizing Concord library and Concord drunks can remain home;&#13;
&#13;
(9) Maynard is on upgrade because of American Woolen Company - to be stigmatized as booze town of Commonwealth is unfair to hundreds of citizens.&#13;
&#13;
The need for a termperance Iodge rose early in Maynard history. The rigors and deadening influence caused by factory work on country boys from the surrounding area and old country immigrants no doubt created the condition  for the organization of the eldest lodge in Maynard: The Iola Lodge, Good Templars, organized in 1866. This was of English and Scottish origin.&#13;
&#13;
Next was the organization of the Womens' Christian Temperance Union in 1884, followed by St. Bridget's Temperance Society in 1890 and the Finnish Alku Temperance Society in 1895.&#13;
&#13;
The rest of the twenty-one different national groups in Maynard apparently were not strong enough in numbers to have a temperance society, or were catered to by their church, or did not drink to that excess to need one.&#13;
&#13;
But to get back to our title and sub-titles of this paper, let us start with March 9, 1900, Good Templars and W.C.T.U. hold temperance rally in Music Hall with John Anderson, well-known Scottish temperance orator as speaker. Temperance concert also was held at the Congregational Church on Sunday eve.&#13;
&#13;
However, the Yes vote for liquor was 264 to 196 against. March 13, 1903 saw the No vote win by 379 to 301 - first time in nine years.&#13;
&#13;
St. Bridget's Temperance Society and the Good Templars joined in a celebration.&#13;
&#13;
May 1, 1903 finds the editor of the paper philosophizing that this being the first day of no-license a lot of dry people are around town.&#13;
&#13;
May 6, 1904 finds the selectmen voting out druggists licenses for the coming year.  Apparently they must have abused their privilege the preceding year as the only local purveyors of liquor for medicinal purposes.&#13;
&#13;
May 6th also finds Saturday the last day of license in Hudson. The editor comments the riding on the electrics from Maynard to Hudson extremely heavy, with large bundles in the arms... on the return trip. He goes on to remark that some cynic said "that people were laying in a supply, which of course is not so".&#13;
&#13;
Jan 20, 1905: Temperance forces first to start campaign with rally at Music Hall and M.E. Church.&#13;
&#13;
License men are rumored to be hustling also. Their argument being that the town has not been dry anyway for the past two years as several expressmen are In business, The selectmen also fight a case in court that was filed and won: a $50 fine against a peddler who was selling drinks out of a bottle carried on his person.&#13;
&#13;
March 17, 1905 finds the license forces winning by 451 to 361. Rumors now are flying as to who will get the three licenses, and possibly two  more after the census is taken.&#13;
&#13;
The editor comments that with Maynard following Hudson the No voters must have voted Yes this time as they were tired of going out of town and seeing expressmen for a $2 license bring it into town for affluent ones.&#13;
&#13;
May 5, 1905 finds Officer Connors making his second trip this month already to Concord with drunks.&#13;
&#13;
The selectmen also decide not to issue license to expressmen as liquor is back In town and the expressmen were not a necessity any more (Their wording.)  Liquor dealers all have paid their fees totaling $3903.&#13;
&#13;
The editor has a field day remarking: "The sidewalks are too narrow for some people since Monday. Men in all stages of intoxication, jovial, looking for fights, weakened, hilarious. Police lenient on first day be order. the three saloons busy from six in the morning until eleven at night. Novelty were off by noon for these that traveled from one place to another on wobbly legs. Two Finns had the extreme honor of being arrested and brought before Judge Keyes, fined $10 and $2 (that's all the second one had).  Officer Connors established an acquaintanceship between one Maynard Irishman and Judge Keyes, fined $10.  As it happened he had taken a little too much previous to the introduction.&#13;
&#13;
May 19, 1905: the editor continues 13 jaglets (?), largest number arrested in one day history of the town. The cells are small and when three or four occupy one cell in the town caboose in that condition puts one in mind of the old town "pound" where stray cattle were rounded up.  As a result the 7:35 Electric to Concord on Monday contained 13 gentlemen who desirous of making Judge Keyes acquaintance, devised the scheme of getting drunk and travelling to court at the expense of the town. As in such cases they were received courteously, and in fact the court was so taken with several present that It took $5 a piece from these favored ones a souvenir of their presence.&#13;
&#13;
July 21, 1905: the two new licenses might go to the West end, but the East enders are trying also.&#13;
&#13;
Oct. 20, 1905: town receives $202.65 for its share from Concord court from July 1 to September 30.  Editor notes lots of drunks last Sunday.. wondering where liquor is being sold on the Sabbath.&#13;
&#13;
February 9, 1906: Temperence societies united will once more wage war on rum with two rallies at Music Hall. &#13;
&#13;
March 16, 1906: No-license wins 479 to 366. License people were too confident. Question of druggist licenses and express being discussed.&#13;
&#13;
July 20, 1906: New Maynard Temperance league composed of all temperance societies organized to combat illegal sale of liquor. It wants to stop this barefaced condition of things: will leave no stone unturned.&#13;
&#13;
November 2, 1906: Temperance league warns town officers that if conditions are not changed, state police will be called in.  Internal Revenue certificates held by 14 Maynard men, including drugstores, sell "Uno" beer - very popular since May 1. &#13;
&#13;
(With an assist from Jim Farrell, who still remembers the term "Uno" beer, we learn it was a beer-tasting liquid with very little alcoholic content and legal to sell.)&#13;
&#13;
Apparently the "Uno" beer selling was a front to allow the sale of more potent spirits for on  February 8, 1907, state police raided "Uno" beer sellers: 5 drugstores and rooming houses where all sorts of liquor was discovered.  The Temperance league went over the head of the Selectmen, they not knowing beforehand anything of the impending raid.&#13;
&#13;
March 1, 1907 finds three cases coming up in Concord Court as the aftermath of the raid. A long article In the paper gives all the particulars of these cases which Judge Keyes dismissed for lack of evidence!  The Temperance league was furious but to no avail.&#13;
&#13;
March 15, 1907 finds the license people winning by 459 to 351. A deploring article in the paper wonders why last year (that is 1906), when the town was dry, the chairman of the board of selectmen did not want job as he is also chief of police and this year with the town wet, a real fight has developed for the position. Officer Connors this year did yeoman work upholding the law and order by taking seven at one time to see the Minuteman statue but got only as far as the courthouse, says the editor.&#13;
&#13;
April 30, 1909: tough year starting now as town is dry and the nearest places are Boston, Lowell and Clinton.  The expresses are not allowed to liquor into town either.  The local W.C.T.U. celebrates its 25th anniversary.&#13;
&#13;
May 14, 1909 finds a new fangled license called the Interstate Express License which came from the Internal Revenue Service.  Two or three corporations are being formed in town to take advantage of this. The license costs $200 and orders filled outside of the state can be delivered. Selectmen then decide to discuss the pony express licenses which they can issue.  Twenty applicants appear as if by magic.  This holds up the parties interested in the $200 interstate license so giving the Selectmen some authority over the situation.&#13;
&#13;
March 18, 1910: License wins by 61 votes: 457 to 396.  The editor mentions the fact that five license plums are available with nine applying and the heat is on the Selectmen.   This is the year the "bar and bottle bill" was passed by the legislature separating the first and fourth class license, so some establishments became bars and some package stores.&#13;
&#13;
May 13, 1910 finds the American Woolen Company again reverting to Saturday pay days as too many employees getting paid on Fridays forget to report on Saturday morning.&#13;
&#13;
November 18, 1910: with the increase in population, according to the census, the town finds Itself in the enviable position of being able to have a sixth license,  either a first or fourth class. According to the "Bar and Bottle Bill" giving the selectmen the authority to decide which it will be.&#13;
&#13;
March 17, 1911:  license forces win by 467 to 340 - quite a gain from the preceding year.&#13;
&#13;
April 14, 1911 finds the sale of the Somerset Hotel and the immediate purchase of the Maple House raise some quizzical eyebrows as to the possibility of one man running two establishments,  one by proxy, which of course was denied as untrue.&#13;
&#13;
March 15, 1912: close vote. License wins 417 to 413.&#13;
&#13;
March 14, 1913:  license still by 23 votes - 455 to 442.&#13;
&#13;
March 13, 1914: 18 votes decides town is still wet -449 to 433.&#13;
&#13;
March 12, 1915 finds a strong rebuke to the liquor interests in the town voting 521 to 439 against license. &#13;
&#13;
July 3, 1915: Being a dry year, the express is back in operation. However, the Boston &amp; Maynard Express and the National Express Company prove to the satisfaction of of the Selectmen that their business is non-liquor and the law states that 51% be only other than liquor.&#13;
&#13;
February 16, 1917: No- license wins 487 to 445.&#13;
&#13;
February 14, 1919: License wins by twelve votes.&#13;
&#13;
February 13, 1920: Maynard votes license 263 to 163, but as the editor says, "the tongues are still dry in the Mill.  Prohibition is here."&#13;
&#13;
During the First World War, on November 3, 1917, President Wilson issued a proclamation banning all liquor except beer and wine. On Nov. 11, 1917, he reduced the alcoholic content by 2-3/4% by weight. This must have compared to "Uno" Beer back in 1906.&#13;
&#13;
January 1919 saw the 18th amendment to the Constitution ratified by the proper amount of states, forbidding the manufacture and sale of intoxicants for beverage purposes. This to take place January 16, 1920. That was the reason for the editor's remark above  about tongues in Maynard being dry.&#13;
&#13;
Prohibition lasted until President Franklin Delano Roosevelt's presidency - it being repealed in 1933.&#13;
&#13;
This period was marked, it is generally conceded, by the greatest breakdown of law and order in the history of the country - too many people ignored the law - it was unenforceable.  And the little town of Maynard was no exception to this rule.&#13;
&#13;
We have not delved deeply into the earlier history of license - no-license in the nineteenth century in Maynard.  In 1881, local option was passed by the state legislature, meaning that each community voted yearly on license - no-license.  The Town Reports, until 1888, lump all cash income together, so no picture is given to us from that source as to possible license fees.&#13;
&#13;
Possibly Selectmen meeting minutes could clarify this prior to 1888.  However, in that year the Treasurer's report indicated receipts of $1200 for six first class liquor licenses, one fourth class, $125, and two sixth class at $2.00.  Expenses: % of liquor licenses to State, $381.75 and cost of liquor license blanks, $2.24.&#13;
&#13;
&#13;
(tables reporting income from 1889 - 1895 were not transcribed)&#13;
&#13;
In conclusion, may I read a poem?  This represents the human tragedy of so many that did not escape the Industrial Revolution in a company town (which Assabet Village and, later, Maynard was).&#13;
&#13;
I am indebted to Ralph Sheridan for information prior to 1893 (he really is not that old - he just happens to have available the information which I needed). The dates and edltor's remarks after 1894 refer to the Maynard News.&#13;

"Caliban in the Coal Mines" by Louis Untermeyer&#13;
&#13;
God, we don't live to complain;&#13;
We know that the mine is no lark.&#13;
But, there's the pools from the rain;&#13;
But, there's the cold and the dark.&#13;
&#13;
God, you don't know what it is&#13;
You, in your well lighted sky&#13;
Watching the meteors whizz;&#13;
Warm, with a sun always by.&#13;
&#13;
God, if you had but the moon,&#13;
Stuck in your cap for a lamp,&#13;
Even you'd tire of it soon,&#13;
Down in the dark and the damp.&#13;
&#13;
Nothing but blackness above&#13;
And nothing that moves but the cars ...&#13;
God, if you wish for our love,&#13;
Fling us a handful of stars!&#13;

                  <text>The Maynard Historical Society has a growing collection of monographs.  Monographs, by nature, are focused and detailed research on a single topic (places, people, events, etc.)  Many of these monographs, especially by guest authors outside of the Society's research team, contain personal anecdotes and details of life in town during their lifetime.&#13;
&#13;
In the years preceding the 1971 Centennial of Maynard the rather new Maynard Historical Society gathered a series of monographs on a wide variety of topics.  96 papers, written by primarily by Birger Koski and Ralph Sheridan, plus a number of "guest" authors, many of these were read at Historical Society meetings in the late 1960's and then became source material for the 1871-1971 History of Maynard book written for the Centennial of the Town.   Monographs from that project are titled as a "Centennial Monograph",&#13;

The Finnish Workers' Federation Club was organized in 1920-21 as an off-shoot of the Finnish Workingmen's Society. Both groups were oriented from the old country, but with the Russian Revolution of 1917-18, the society split into two parts. The Federation Club built a hall on Waltham Street in 1923 which burned to the ground in 1932. The hall was in the vicinity of Russo's Market, now restaurant. After 1932 the club rented the Russian hall (now owned by Maynard Lodge of Elks) on Powdermill Road. With the advance of years, the club disappeared, as the off-spring of the original founders became assimilated into American life, and went their individual ways. During the heyday of the club various sports were engaged in, including track, basketball, gymnastics and wrestling. Many fine Finnish athletes came from this club to compete in High School athletics during the twenties and thirties. The political aspects of the club were divided into old arguments of old country politics, the pros and cons of the Russian revolution, and the participation in union affairs to better their economlc lot in this country.&#13;

An interesting sidelight into memorabilia of half a century ago was the travels of the BOSTON POST CANE. Apparently this newspaper thought it would increase its circulation by presenting a cane to the Selectmen of all the towns in Massachusetts, who in turn would present it to the oldest inhabitant to use until death, or removal elsewhere, then it would pass on to the next oldest.&#13;

The first Maynard clubs we come across in our reading of the old newspapers are the Roli-Boli Club organized in l895 and the A.T. Cycle Club (Associated Templars).&#13;
&#13;
Here are a few excerpts from the Maynard News:&#13;
&#13;
Sept. 22, 1899  A number of members of the A.T.  &amp; Roli-Boli Cycle Clubs enjoyed a run to Sterling on Sunday. A large number of Maynard riders are planning to attend the Union Run of the Hudson Cycle Club two weeks hence. The&#13;
following participated in the run to Sterling: Walter Priest, Fred Binns, George Lawton, Lyman Priest, John Denniston, Fred Hayward, William Parkinson, Samuel Harding and Bob Denniston.&#13;

&#13;
In anticipation of Maynard's Sesquicentennial anniversary in 2021, the Maynard Historical Commission (MHC) worked with the trustees of the Mission Evangelical (Finnish) Congregational) Church on Walnut St. to retrieve the church's bell from the tower. The bell has been gifted to the town for its Sesquicentennial.  As part of a Community Historical Preservation Grant the MHC arranged a rigging company to remove the bell and store it until a permanent visible location in town can be prepared.  The Town's DPW department will prepare an enclosure where the bell will rest with a plaque dedicating the bell to the town for its sesquicentennial and a short history of the bell.</text>

                <text>The Maynard High School Class of 1961 celebrated its 58th reunion on June 21, 2019 at the Blue Coyote Restaurant in Maynard.  As usual, a large number of old friends met up to reminisce and catch up at this "mini reunion".  Several others stay connected but were unable to attend.  The class prides itself in its cohesiveness and fond memories of life in Maynard.  We are looking ahead to our more formal 60th.&#13;
